Happy Mother's Day

And, Mercury is out of retrograde today!

Don't know about anyone else, but these past 23 days have been brutal.

🪐⭐😿

The term retrograde comes from the Latin word retrogradus, which literally means “backward step.”

As the name suggests, retrograde is when a planet appears to go backward in its orbit, as viewed from Earth; it's an optical illusion.

In the realm of astrology, retrograde motion has negative connotations. 

Because Mercury is the planet that rules communications, expect frequent misunderstandings, scheduling problems, and disagreements with friends.

Call it what you want, and believe it or not, yet I'm darned glad we are out of it.

Manny and Chili Bruce have returned to their usual selves, and we are thankful for that.

Broken

 Da Boyz did NOT sail through their vaccinations as well as they did their dentals.

Wednesday, we got the thumbs-up on at their post-surgery check-up: all good!

They each were given a Rabies jab, and an FVRCP combination vaccine.

Thursday morning, neither would eat breakfast nor hang out with their humans.

Am telling you, I felt like I'd broken my kitties.

The vet's office invited us back, to check if either were running a fever, but they weren't.

They were given MORE jabs: a Benadryl shot and one for nausea.

Some gunk rubbed in their ears to stimulate appetite, and off we went again.

Thankfully, after a short while, The Hubby got them to eat a good-sized meal, and I fed them more later.

💕My babies!💕

To de-stress myself, I ventured into the yard to check out the gardens:

Jack-in-the-pulpit

Jacob's Ladder

Silky Dogwood

TGIF!
