As predicted, much pitiful mewing in the wee hours. And the not-so-wee hours. And the definitely not-even-close-to-being-wee hours.
She’s breaking my heart.

Iâm beginning the second week of two weeks of training. Itâs eight-hour days with a one-hour lunch, no stress, and lots of me-time. This is likely to be the last training Iâm sent to; government policy changes are limiting any off-station training. The Powers That Be sent us to Arlington, VA for this one. I…
Lunch table conversation: “Hey Booker! You’ll never guess who spoke at my church yesterday!” “You got me, Pookey. Who?” “We had a lady give the sermon! Nobody showed up!” “Didn’t your church vote against that years ago? I remember you talking about that.” “I don’t know why they have to change things like this. It’s…
Today started off quite slowly, and has managed to stay that way so far. I woke to the sound of rain against the windows of the bedroom. Checking the time, I was amazed to find it was 12:30 in the afternoon. I had a fair amount of sleep to catch up on, but I don’t…

Bell flowers (at least the ones I’m familiar with) are far more delicate than these things. The buds on…
The judge suspended sentencing pending psychological evaluation. Daniel Culligan’s lawyer is pressing for community service and no jail time. The prosecuters are insisting that they’ll push for the maximum sentence. Regardless of what happens, I have to think the letters the prosecution received made a difference. There has been no deal cut, and the press…
It’s so hard to do anything with much joy when there is an animal in the house who is unhappy.
Ask me how I know.
Hope things get better….
Can’t think of a more appropriate song for the situation.
The poor little mite. And poor sleep-deprived caregivers 🙁
ew, about making up things,
my favorite music from ozzie is 33silent
Poor wee thing. Does she have to wear an e-collar?
When Dunkie has his allergies and has to wear his e-collar and he itches all over but can’t get to it and sometimes he whines, that breaks my heart. I can totally relate. You can’t explain things to them, either. "It’s not my fault!" you want to say.
