I’m having a crappy day.

Henry James Pants

Until this morning, I had a cat who was 11 years old, named Hank. We never called him Hank, though. We called him everything else, but not usually Hank. Hanky, Hanky-Pants. Henry. Henry James. Henry James Pants. HJP.
Truly, he was the best cat I’ve ever owned. And I’m sitting here in a river of my [...]

Knowledge

I had a crap-tacular day at work today, and then I had to go “fight fires” at work tonight after I’d been home for 2 hours. Plus! A super cute pic of my doggy and me!

You Leave Without Petrie?

The title of this post comes from the The Land Before Time movie.

Rob’s leaving for South Carolina in the morning. Without me.His niece, Jessi Lynn has asked him to marry her and her fiance in May, and Rob hasn’t yet met the young fellow. Everything we’ve heard about him (and read on his MySpace) is [...]

Spicy Dogs

This is the second night in a row that I haven’t been able to sleep well because of the overwhelming smell of cinnamon in my bedroom. Because the dogs picked up fleas and I so hate giving them strong meds. So we decided to use a “more natural” cure, made with SPICE OILS, like clove, cinnamon, [...]

No Go this month. My doc’s office called me today at work. Day 21 blood tests say that my progesterone is too low, apparently. Trying again as soon as AF hits.
Tripping
Rob, knowing I was disappointed, quit work early and had the dogs and our beach bag loaded in the car when I got home this [...]

A Series of Blows

Last night, our neighbor came over and expressed in a genuinely caring and friendly-like way, that her husband had had quite enough of Rob’s dog pooping in their yard. That bit is quite interesting, since as the neighbor also stated, “I call your dogs over here, and give them treats and snuggle and play with [...]

Fireflies 2007

 
I think perhaps I do a post each year on fireflies. The above is actually just a table decoration imitating fireflies, but I thought it was pretty, so here it is to stay!
What a wonderful few days we’ve had. I worked so hard today, but it was good and kept my mind off of matters [...]

Cake and a Dress

Mindy’s Night
Thursday this week, Mindy came into my work and asked if I had an old prom dress she could borrow for a project at school. She was apparently going to be in a “Wax Museum” exhibit as Helen Keller. “Hello!” I thought, “Wouldn’t Helen Keller wear a long skirt and plain blouse with a [...]

10 - Number of medications my dad is currently taking on a daily basis, several doses per day. Dad had an appointment with his Spinal Cord Doctor on Tuesday. The doc said my parents need to be getting exercise, lest my dad have another heart attack (his first was 12 years ago). I am thankful [...]

Kodiak and Pookey

I don’t remember the pic that David referred to in the comments to the last post, but this is a pic of my doggie, Kodiak (aka Kody) and our kitty, Pookey.
 They’re like, the lion and the lamb. Only Pookey is a freak and Kodiak is very genteel.

The Kitchen Ceiling

What is it anyway, about the kitchen ceiling? It’s been driving me nuts because I didn’t paint it well the first time (nearly two years ago). I knew there was 1/2 a gallon of paint the same color in the attic. Rob fetched it and I just spent the better part of the last hour [...]

One Last Cry

With single digit temps overnight these days, everything is frozen. And snow covered, which means that Rob and I can breathe again! No outdoor allergies! Yessss!!!!
And my heart is on the mend. I’ve only felt like I couldn’t handle things a couple of times in the last week or so. So life goes on, right?
I’m [...]
