I had a chance to see some high quality theatre (The Bodyguard - better than the movie & a feast for the ears for those who LOVE Whitney Houston songs, Spoon River - a new revamped version - not sure I love this version, think I've spent too much time listening to the previous soundtrack that I'm in love with :P). I also got to meet my new whippet girl neighbour, talk about a cutie. Highlight was watching equine re-enactors at Fort York, showing off the skills of the war horses of the First World War (the humans were also very good ;)) as part of the Vimy celebrations. Now, for the bad. :( Yesterday morning, Lily dog & I were out for our morning walk & found an injured kitty. The fact she barely flinched when Lily dog went past (& that Lily did not acknowledge the cat) told me things were dire. I took my girl home, called for help (useless beaurocrats, won't go into it, but there will be a complaint put in with the city), & went back to keep her company cause I didn't want her to die alone in the cold. :( A neighbour happened by within 10 minutes, thankfully she had a wagon & we got her to the one place in the hood with a vet that was open on a Sunday. In light of the day & given her struggles, I named her Vimy. At least she is not in pain any more. I only knew her for an hour, but the sweet little tortie made quite an impact on me. Going to think about her for a long time. :( Better get myself ready to go get poked and prodded at the hospital. Also have to make breakfast for the sleepyheads (I'm not allowed to eat, good thing I'm not fond of kibble :P). Hope everyone has a wonderful day. :)
