I really just wanted him to die, but I felt guilty about it. I haven't missed him for a moment.
I'm glad you said this. I support your decision to stay away, Tom.
Let's see: cats eating wet food. I've had this issue. Supposedly you can get their appetite going by putting some on their nose. Hand feeding works for me, but may start bad habits.
This weekend I'm running a half marathon (surf city) and I'm freaking out about chest & back pain. I get frequent side stitches, even when I'm
walking
or
sitting
or
sleeping.
I think it's cancer. Or pleurisy. Or pleurisy-cancer. But going out for steaks tonight to feed up anyway.
Maybe you mom is feeling vulnerable and projecting?
Oh, without a doubt. It's so hard because Capt. Logic has abandoned ship, and she doesn't really listen to reason.
A few years ago, Clio was having food issues because of her teeth, and it took a lot of coaxing to get her to eat. She still loves having me sit and pet her while she eats.
Oh, when MK and Devi did their mysterious not eating/digestive issues (and I had to give the sub-Q fluids- note, totally different times) I did a lot of heating up wet food, mix with babyfood and tuna water. The stinkier (fish, bleh) the better.
I've learned that the pink can in the fancy feast multipacks is really unpopular around here. Chicken, I think.
I'm trying to get them to eat more wet food to spur some weightloss in Loki and slow down in Pumpkin's gain, but it isn't really working. CATS!
bon, pulled/ popped rib? One of my swimming pals, J, has to be careful because she tend to pop the bottom rib out of place.
I'm always thrown by how I sound so different on tape/voicemail than I do in my head.
Me, too. My teacher says it's because we hear our own voices transmitted as vibrations through bone to the auditory nerve, as well as through the air, while everyone else's voices just come through the air.
good financial news items (yes, more than one!) of the day:
I am going to be saving $700!!!!!! per month on health insurance.
New job also has a FSA for both medical and childcare. I can put away 100% of my childcare and probably 100% of my out of pocket medical. HOLY SHIT!
Also Also If I start rounding up my monthly mortgage payment I should be able to take over a year off of it and save a couple grand.
That's terrific, msbelle!
NICE!
I really should start putting more into the principle. But I'd like to restart saving again, first. I'm close.
I keep thinking I should try to pay extra/put some occasional savings towards principal. But then somehow knowing I'd pay it off in 28 years instead of 30 doesn't seem that exciting and it seems like SO much money....
That's great, msbelle.
I've been fighting the rib popping in and out thing too. The pain moves between the side and the back. I was told to ice.
