Misc things going on

Over the past few weeks, we have been dealing with some sick kitties here at the Becks. Oreo was diagnosed with colitis a few weeks ago, and then Callie Coco came down with the same thing. Clinton has avoided getting sick so far. We thought we were in the clear this week, but now Oreo is sick again. It's been quite frustrating and not easy giving medication to the kitties. Chris & I are hoping that a few meals of chicken and rice will clear things up with Oreo this time around, and we are going to watch closely to be sure that the kitties don't eat each others food.

On a happier note, we have had a lot of great produce from the garden here. Lots of summer squash, blueberries, and now some green beans and tomatoes. Looking forward to eggplant, sugar snap peas, pumpkin and winter squash plus lots of herbs!

Chris and I enjoy the wildlife here. The Becks have TONS of Canadian geese and ducks around. We also have a squirrel that I have named "Acra" since she's an acrobat on the bird feeders...hanging upside down and spinning. We have seen a few strange bugs, including an assassin bug....which is REALLY gross.

We will be in NYC two weeks from yesterday! So excited to get our things out of the Bronx and to move in to our new place. We were going to move some things in on Aug 1st, but now the Beck family will be having a get together on that day, so we will have to wait until later in the day or on the 2nd.

The weather here in IN has been amazing for July. It has been in the 70's and 80's here, which is unheard of. The weather report said it is the first July since the late 1800's that we have not had a day above 90 degrees around here. I hope the cooler weather sticks around through Aug, for our move in.
