Wait! No need to wipe screen yet!' I'm smooching that beautiful mug too!!! 🙂 SMOOOOOOOCH!! 🙂 🙂
Appears everything is "holding steady" and that's okay. Actually, that "thing" is a touch smaller, so that is good!
There can be a lot of reasons for "muscle wasting" and being a "senior" is one of those reasons...just a natural process thing.
And we all look forward to getting our eyeballs licked by Izzy at the pawty! 🙂
Love and hugs!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
