Same. Every morning for four years I go to the beach to center the day. I take the same photo of a palm as I cross the dune. Friends have moved away and it is their link to the beach.

Home with a cone. Minus 15 teeth. I feel like such a bad mom but vet said former feral cats almost always have major tooth problems. She is hungry and wants to be in my lap. Her kids are confused.
