I have just discovered that the spica will not permit me to play Mahjongg Dimensions.

Someone reading this has done something to hurt me. It was not an accidental slight. This was mean-spirited, malicious and required some small amount of preparation. Please, don’t e-mail me to ask if it was you. If you aren’t sure, then it wasn’t you. If you are sure, you really won’t have any reason to…

Ever notice that after you’ve gone and called the doctor to get an appointment you immediately start to get better? It evidently works that way with cats too. O’Beast scarfed down breakfast this morning like the piglet he’s always been. He still needs his annual check-up for his heart condition, so I’ll drag him (over…
A hit and run entry, for a hit and run kind of day. I’m packed and ready to head southward to North Carolina, where the temperatures are running at least ten degrees warmer than they are here. I found out yesterday that we need coveralls for the wet lab on Saturday. I went home and…
1. Face cloths are essential. They are small, so easy to handle. They are absorbent, so they get a lot of water off a cat quickly. They can be readily tossed to one side when saturated, and easily grabbed when a fresh one is needed. They wrap around tiny legs and tails without a lot…
I’m just off the phone with O’Beast’s vet. The results from his bloodwork from last week are in. I really must find another name for the O’Beast. He’s no longer the 20 pound blimpoid I inherited from my mother. He tests negative for toxoplasmosis. That’s the disease that cats commonly carry that can be a…
OMG. I’d forgotten about the yellowing of the undercoat! Two of the cats I’d previously mentioned were chinchilla persian and had that problem. It’s freaky to look at, actually. You sort of expect them to glow in the dark.
Planning on going to Champaign this weekend so I’ll see if I can find you some toe socks for your hand. Evidently they’re all the rage again. Dunno. Too old and too frumpy to really care unless it’s for a good cause 😉
And there I was thinking you meant lavender! I hope the splint helps. I sometimes wear one, as I have a chronic issue in one wrist, and it does ease the problem. I like the idea of funky socks!
Good news on the ringworm! Progress at last, albeit at the cost of smells.
I hadn’t thought of this medication angle. I may discuss it with our Sheltie Rescue director.
We will give her a week and evaluate her then. It will be nice to have something to fall back on if it is needed.
Thanks for the idea.
Sorry about your hand… pesky bodies, little drama queens sometimes aren’t they?
Having had experience with craft booths over the years, I can tell you they almost never make more of a profit than to pay for the booth, gas to get there, beverages and food for the day. They are not profit-making endeavors for the average craftsman or craftswoman. If you’ve ever noticed, the large booths at crafts fairs are usually on the outside corners of the floor plan and are usually either purchased things that are quickly embellished while you wait or edibles. It is where you will find the photo mugs, mouse pads, airbrushed t-shirts, "homemade" candy, kettle corn and the sort of glass blowers that make those sailboat replicas with all the string work where they charge a small fortune for anything really good. These are the only places that actually turn a profit.
