An Old Friend

For those who haven't heard already, Krissi lost her 20 year old kitty, Finnegan, last week.  She and Ron are doing much better now, though, and the other critters in the house are giving them extra fuzzy love.  Thanks also to everyone who sent nice notes, 'cause they certainly helped a lot.


"Finnegan Francis O'Malley" (1990-2009)

If you'd like, you can read her posts about the decision to put him to sleep and coming to terms with the loss.

My square for Body Tribe - Chalk It Up to Sacramento '09
Originally uploaded by Skelekitty (Krissi Sandvik)

I made my debut as the representative for Body Tribe, Krissi's favorite gym / art gallery / dog park. I had a complete BLAST participating as a chalk artist in my very first Chalk-It-Up to Sacramento fundraiser, a non-profit organization dedicated to funding children's art in our region. Check out the rest of the photos from Saturday.

I had tons of fun, despite Krissi's initial nervousness, having NEVER worked in the "chalk on sidewalk" medium. However, our sidewalk neighbor and new pal, Emily Elders, sure helped to get her drawing and kept us laughing all day long. Thanks to Darby Flynn for all the work she did (and for "volunteering" my services), to Body Tribe for letting us represent them and, most especially, to Krissi's long-suffering husband Ron for shuttling us around and lugging stuff across Fremont park (several times).
