Aphorism
You know that old saying, “Work smarter, not harder”?
You ever use it on someone and then wonder why they looked pissed?
You just told them that they’re working stupid.
I hate my boss.

First Mother’s Day Without Mom
I’d planned to visit my mother’s gravesite Sunday. I’ve not gone back there since the funeral in September. But Sunday came, and visiting there didn’t feel right. I was actually OK with everything until about 9:30 Sunday night, when Older Sister called. Mom’s estate is still tied up, she reported, but it should be resolved…

Adolescent cat from hell. I got a phone call from the ex this morning. He got mail on Monday that he thought I ought to know about. Evidently someone found my card case and dropped it in a mail box. The Post Office sent it to the old address (which is the address on my…

Ten Years
Yesterday was my ten year anniversary at Dear Diary. I only remembered this morning, although I put a reminder in my Microsoft Works Calendar. Too much on my mind this week, I guess. I went back and read a few of the earliest entries. I’m not the person I was then. I wonder when that…
“So what’s the deal with all the diabetic cats?”
I’ve read that it’s estimated that one in 400 cats will become diabetic – I’ve read that a few places, though I’m not sure which study/ies are being cited. My own vet feels that diabetes in cats is on the rise, although I question whether it’s really on the rise or if pet owners are…

I empathize. My "boss" is pretty darned stupid, too. Probably the worst part is her blatant hyprocracy. That one is REALLY hard to take in silence. She spouts off about how "wonderful" Trump is and all sorts of Republican rhetoric ALL THE TIME. Then she demands that the rest of us NEVER discuss politics AT ALL. She stopped me from even saying that I grew up in a bi-partisan household last week! Just a year ago her husband’s life was saved when he had half his kidney removed because it had malignant tumors. He was STILL in the hospital (on Medicaid’s dime) when she voted a straight Republican ticket, all the way from Trump on down. And boy-oh-boy was she happy when her Medicare kicked in! Hypocrites are the WORST!
