Not just Ellie,

But Poppy and I too, felt better after reading all your "get well" wishes. Thank you very much...

Ellie is doing great and almost back to her old self. She just may eat us out of house and home before the doctors get her medications adjusted. She is on Prednisone and Fludrocort. It's the Prednisone! Dr. Davidson said Yes, Ellie has one goal right now and that is to find food. We think she has gained back the weight she lost and maybe a little extra. She goes back for more bloodwork on Monday. 

Ellie was showered with attention last week at the vet's office. It was her first visit back for bloodwork after being hospitalized. Most of the staff came out to greet her with hugs and kisses and were pleased to see Ellie looking much better. 

I hate to say anything but it's that time of the year again..."the snowball bush"!! When all the green blooms first came out Poppy said, Mel you've got to take a picture...

So many snowballs, the limbs will never support them, said Poppy.

So now they're turning white, but still not fully opened and no broken limbs, yet...

Seems the warmer weather is finally here to stay and it feels wonderful. 

Miss Ducky hasn't been back on her nest since losing her two precious eggs but enjoys swimming on the pond these warm days...

and our early morning walk down Henny Penny Lane one day last week. The sky and clouds were just so pretty, to me anyhow...I could feel spring...

even looking out across the old cutover was pretty...

some mornings everything just feels beautiful, doesn't it?

Guess that about it for now. Mostly just wanted to say, "thank you friends"! 

Love, Henny
