Up extra early this morning as Tal-y had an appointment to see the vet at 8.30. We were in and out of there fairly quickly, the vet thoroughly checked her out and she is healthy and fit to fly next week. We now have in hand all the paperwork that we need to take to the USDA tomorrow to be endorsed.
I spent this afternoon being a chef and a barber. I finally got to cut Mike’s beard a little, although his hair is still off limits and he is now wearing it in a ponytail. He does look a little less like a cave man now that his beard is all trimmed; it was getting to the point where it was difficult to tell where his hair stopped and his facial hair started.
After doing a little manscaping I baked a beautiful apple pie; well as beautiful as it can get using frozen pastry. It looks ok even if it is a little pale. I’m sure Mike will eat it, at least I hope so anyway since I’m not touching it with all that cinnamon inside it.

Mike: I look almost human now! Umm, good pie!!!!
