New Suit

The lad has a competition coming up and he will need to wear a suit. We got his suit out to try on and it fit every where but in the sleeves. Somehow, in the months since he last wore the suit, his arms have grown in length by about 2 inches. The rest of him is the same. Is he perhaps, part sasquatch? We don't know.

At any rate, the sleeves could not be altered enough, so we got him a new suit (pictured here). I'm thinking of cutting the sleeves on the old one to make a short sleeved suit for the warmer months. I think it'll be a big hit. (you heard it here first)

College Girl Returns

Picked the college girl up at the airport last night. Went out to dinner, then brought her home to get reacquainted with the house she only spent a few nights in, back in August. Its good to have her back with us. Gil was very glad to see her again, but luckily NOT so excited that he peed on her.

Visitors

We had visitors this week and what a fun time we had!! It was great just being together again but we also engaged in various cultural and historical activities in NYC, Princeton and Washington's Crossing. Shopping was also a highlight as well as eating at various types of eateries in the area. On their final night here we had a neighborhood party where we all got to meet the nice neighbors that live around us. Soon we will take them to the airport. We'll miss them and can't wait to see them again. 

Gil's Accident

Gil had a little accident last week. He jetted out the back door after a squirrel (as per usual). I have warned him on numerous occasions of the dangers of this practice but he has not heeded my advice. Well, on this particular day he leaped across the stream at top speed but misjudged his landing!! Instead of landing on his feet on the other side, he hit his belly area on the edge of the rocks, cutting and scraping his belly and penis!! I thought he had broken a leg until I lifted him up and saw the blood. Here are a couple pics of the injury site. He's okay now. After an expensive trip to the vet it was determined that nothing was broken and there were no internal injuries. He has some pills for pain and inflammation and is getting back to normal. As of of yet, he has not raced out and crossed the stream like he used to do. He has been taking the bridge!
