Hi :)

Well, I don't have much to report today, but I do want to be better at trying to post a little something once a week.  :}

We were quite spoiled for most of the month with lovely, spring-like weather, but this week we were hit with a big rainstorm.  Beast'sbelle's middle daughter came down with a bad cold, too.  So between those two things, we've pretty much been stuck on top of the curio, bored stiff.

No headway has been made with Ben and Isabella.  I think she's interested in him, but he's as stubborn as ever.  I hope something works out between them.  Ben could use someone to soften his rough edges, and Isabella's really sweet.  Although, I must admit, the fact that she changes her outfit almost every 5 minutes (going elsewhere to actually change, of course!) gets a little tiring.  I know she has "over 100 fashions", but I don't see why we have to observe all 100 of them every day!

Robby's hip and leg have really been bothering him with the colder weather.  Beast'sbelle's house is not insulated, and the room we stay in is at the end of the house, so it gets pretty chilly.  He still does his daily walks to help loosen things up, but this week we've had to keep to our room instead of roaming the hall and the living room.

I wish I could take away his pain.  It's so sad to see him suffering.  He doesn't like to draw attention to himself and has a pretty good attitude about it, but I know him, so I can tell, perhaps more than the others, how much it hurts.  He always tells me that just knowing I'm his makes all the pain go away.  I wish it were true, but I'm glad I can help at least a little. :)

Well, that's about all I have time for today.  I'll try to have something more interesting later.  For now, I've got to go.  There are others waiting to use the computer, and not all of them are very patient (yes, I'm talking to you, Maggie!).  Talk to you again soon!
