Central Park and a Cut

 Took a walk to Central Park to see what the fall color situation is. We were not disappointed. There were many wedding parties out getting photographed.

Cut my finger last night trying to slice an onion.

VOTED!!

 First day of early voting in NYC. We arrived at 9:25 (polls open at 10). End of the line was about 4 blocks away from the entrance.

The crowds just kept coming. The line was blocks and blocks long and they had it circle back and double up on the sidewalk.

Hubby nearly stepped on something gross when the polls finally opened and we began inching forward.

Some guy trying to put up his signs at the last minute.

We finally got into the building and cast our votes. The whole thing took just over 3 hours.

Free Food? Nope, but they did hand out free water!

Not a Star

Walked through the filming of a tv show last night, hoping to get discovered. It didn't work. 

New York City

 Just so there is no confusion, New York City is NOT a ghost town. 

Foot traffic and car traffic is back. People are going out to restaurants and bars, to museums, to shops and parks. I've also seen tourists out and about. 

Nearly everyone wears a mask, inside and outside, we follow the guidelines and beat back the virus when we were the epicenter.

No, things aren't back to pre-covid conditions, Broadway is closed, caberets and night clubs are closed. Many small businesses are closed and may not reopen. But we are far from a ghost town!

Injection

 I gave Gil his injection today. He was having a nap, sleeping pretty hard and I stuck the needle in and pushed the plunger. His skin sort of flinched, but he didn't even wake up. Pfeuff! Hope all the rest of them go so smoothly.

Paper Dolls

 The challenge for the craft group was to make something (anything) of a figure (any kind of figure).

So I made this paper doll set of Gilbert and his wardrobe.

All the outfits are paper remakes of his actual clothes.

Missing My Dad

 Missing my dad today (and every day).  

Hard to believe he's been gone for 7 years.

Vet Visit

The little lad had a visit with his vet today. He got a vitamin B12  injection and an injection to help ease the arthritis. Blood test results and fecal sample results to come. Will increase his food a bit to keep up his weight and they put these things on his nails and pad so his legs don't slide out from under him.  After the visit he was completely tuckered out.
