Went to see the endo doctor. All is well. Started to gain some weight. It's time to say goodbye to Ruby. We really had fun with her. Especially during Halloween. Ruby, I will miss you!
Ruby and I went to hear my dad's band play. They are the Stone Soup Band and play Irish music. We danced to the music We were very tired! Bye, Ruby.
