Goings On

Hey Everyone!
Wow, it's another Half Full Friday!  Woohoooo.  Happy Weekend To All.

Half Full Friday is that day of the week where Sprinkles reminds us to see our glass as half full rather than half empty.  I'm cool with that!  Maybe you could join us by telling how your week was Half Full.

So, my week was actually pretty much middle-of-the-road.  Nothing really exciting, nothing really bad....EXCEPT for My Bestest Girl Zona's surgery!  I am still worried and so sorry that she has this awful ouchie, but her surgery went well and she's back home recovering.  WHEW!  Otherwise, this week's just humm-drummmmmmm.

Since there's nothing else exciting to tell....I'll just remind all of you about the Goings On in our world!

Check out the Blogville Community Calendar here to see all of the happenings.  Lots of my good furiends are having contests, challenges etc.  and you don't want to miss out.  Here are the current events:
