You can see that the real STAR OF THE DAY was . . . . . . Daisy2Legs, who assumed everyone had come here . . . . . . (from Australia or Chicago - made no difference to her!) . . . . . . to give her some lovin'. Which they all did. Perhaps more converts to CairnDom? (April & Misha look on.) Having missed their afternoon snack 'n' nap time, The Gang of Four soon collapsed . . . . . . Cari on the floor . . . . . . and Daisy2Legs, Rico & RosieVi the Shy on the much more comfortable bed. On Monday, Lizzie departed from Chicago by plane, headed to Cleveland, Ohio. Then NYC, DC, Connecticut & Boston (where she's meeting up with Debbie Carley & Koshie) Libby writes: Trains, planes, automobiles, elevated lines and buses and trolleys. We would have added boats, but of course it's January, so the river tours weren't on. On 5 February, Libby writes: Oops, she did it again Well, Miss M. must have been pretty tired of being good after being on her very best behavior during Auntie Lizzie's stay in Chi-town. Because today when I got home from work (after I'd fed her and walked her and in general seen to her every immediate need), while I was changing clothes, I heard a 'crunch crunch' sound coming from the living room. Walked out, said 'drop it' and discovered Miss M. was chewing - and had chewed - my phone. It's pretty well scarred (and cracked and . . .), but I think it still works. Then again, maybe she was just tryin' to call Lizzie to ask when she was comin' back? Libby (or maybe she's just bored after being spoiled for a week, now Garry & I are back at work) & Miss M. (hello, operator?)
