Dear So and So

Mimi and Catrin - I hope your loved ones continue to improve. That pie sounds delicious.

Indy, could it be an intestinal blockage? Has he pooped at all?

Not today he hasn't. I'm not overly sure about yesterday. With two cats, it's not always easy to tell. He's starting to show a bit more life, but hd also keeps retreating to his private hiding spots. If he's anything short if normal, he's off to the vet tomorrow. I have to be judicious about going to the vet. It stresses Henry out really badly, and upon his return, our other cats freaks out for at least 24 hours because she doesn't recognize him.

As I was writing this, Henry jumped up on my lap and started meowing and making biscuits. That's a good sign!!!

[Catrin]

Glad to hear about a good sign from Henry! It is so hard with furbabies because we can't ask them anything, or explain what that person with the sharp objects is doing.

I am feeling a bit down tonight. My neck and base of skull hurts. I am in bed as it is "bedtime" and the alarm goes off in 7 hours, but this will be a rough night.

Mimi -- Such great news about Don. Whatta guy, baking a pie. Woo-hoo! Happy for you both!

Dear tiny little biting ants I keep managing to step on or get on my hand outdoors, STOP IT! Just stop biting me! I am tired of taking Benedryl so I can sleep at night without waking up numerous times to scratch.

Dear Self,

I know that the knitting store is a black hole of common sense. Please brace yourself, scurry in and out quickly, and do not be tempted by the hand dyed merinos near the door. While financial ruin by yarn purchase doesn't sound Soooo bad, it definitely is bad.

Thank you,
Self.

hehehe, been here, done that at the needlework store - in my pre-bike addiction days. Have PLENTY of things to work on lo these 2 years later if I can stay off my bikes long enough to pick up a needle.

Slept terribly last night, however my neck does feel better today. I just over-did things last night. I can lift weights, or I can go to spinning class. Not both in the same evening

I can totally understand that. The last time I went yarn shopping was for stuff for presents for my parents. (Okay, they're not getting done for a long time--I just wrap the yarn, put a note on it and then work at my own pace.) It turned into "Okay, now that I've gotten the stuff for Dad's socks, and Mom's scarf (with an extra just in case), there's all this other stuff that's on sale..." I think I ended up with an additional four pairs of socks' worth.
