Stuff > Misc > Stuff

Went oot & aboot myself today & met my brother at the Frye Museum to see Boris Gaquere (classical guitar). With a bonus of having to show up about an hour early to get a ticket, that gave us about an hour to wander through the R.Crumb exhibit that’s showing there right now as […]

Siobhan Is Home

One week later from the day she went, she’s home in a nice little urn with a nice little paw print in clay that the vet’s office made.
That is all.

Random Saturday Update

About a half hour until we leave to go look at some houses. M2 is running a fever (or was before I bribed her with an otter pop to take some tylenol). She ate some saltines & drank some juice & is coming around a little.
Thank you all for your kind […]

And Just Like That

She’s gone. The vet called us first thing this morning to let us know we should come over because it was time & so we went, but she went first. I hope she didn’t feel abandoned, but I think with as fast as she went, it was just that she couldn’t hang on. […]

Kitty Update

I called the vet this evening just to see how things were going.  When Paul got her in, her temp had dropped so low that it didn’t register on her thermometer.  They had it up to 90F by the time I called.  Siobhan was breathing funny so she took an x-ray.  There’s fluid around her […]

Too Much

The last couple days have been interesting. I wish that SiobhanTheCat weren’t so alarmingly sick though. She’s still drinking water, but I had to feed her some dinner with a syringe. It was stressing her out so I stopped at one syringe. She hasn’t really eaten since yesterday morning & is […]

More Awesome

The congestion in my chest has moved entirely to my head.  The snuffly head overflowing made me get up earlier than the rest of my body wanted to & from then until just now, I’ve been cleaning, trying to get this house into ‘on sale’ order.  Oof with the cleaning & scrubbing & vacuuming & […]

A Wrinkle in Minds

Every night for the last five or six days, I’ve been reading A Wrinkle in Time to M1. On Friday night we ended up reading until about 9:40 — we kept getting sidetracked talking about Euclidean & non-Euclidean math/geometry. She’d had a frustrating day at school with math & yet there we were […]

Random Midweek Update

M1 has a horrid sore throat, but at least it’s not strep & I think she’s almost over it. Of course, M2 is getting it now, poor baby.
Speaking of poor baby, M2 bit the next door neighbor girl. Negotiating play is a hard thing to learn at 5. Apparently the little girl […]

OM NOM NOM NOM

I’ve had the worst cravings ever for the worst junk foods ever lately. Hmmm, what should I have for dinner? Well, what sounds good? Potato chips & french onion dip/sour cream stuff… popcorn… french fries (with mayo, preferably)… chips & salsa… Girl Scout cookies… ice cream… bread (home made, of course) with […]
