Travel--Boy A Europe tomorrow. I'm busy buying last minute stuff, packing and organizing. This is the first time in his life that he will be away from us for so long. I don't think I can stand it. I'll miss him. And I wish I was the one who was going.

Menu Foods--I called Menu Foods the other day to report Rocky's death. They were pains in the butts. They just wanted to give me another number to call. They wanted to know what kind of wet food we bought and thought was responsible for his death. The problem is I didn't know. We usually buy Iams, but have bought other brands.

Luckily the staff at Iams were very nice and took all the information and asked me to have the vet send the information about Rocky''s death to them.

It will be interesting to see what happens. It will be most interesting to see what happened to Menu foods, how the poison got in the food.

I still love retirement
