Weekends are beautiful.

  1. Morning! Sure wish I could sleep in on the weekends. My internal clock won't let me. :(

    Heavy thunderstorms all day today. I'm running to the bank and grocery store then spending the day cooking, cleaning, puttering around.

    What's everyone doing today? Wog, do you like your new job so far? Tell Froggy I hope she feels better soon.

  2. Football Saturday, yay!! Georgia is going to get slaughtered by LSU this afternoon, I'm sure, but I'll watch every painful minute. First I'm going to the hairdresser. My gray roots are already beyond my ability to disguise with different styles or hats! The salon is a little difficult to get to through all the construction, but I managed to find my way to it to make the appt. yesterday, so hopefully I can find my way back. They've recently reopened after being under 4 feet of water from Sandy. It took almost a year to clean up, rebuild, and replace all their equipment. I'll never complain about my little problems again!!

    Puffin is hanging in there. I'm still bringing him his food. The vet called again to check on him yesterday, which I really appreciated. She suggested that I find another place to put the food dishes. Maybe he took a disliking to the area or there's some bad smell that Bambu doesn't mind and we can't smell. She said that since he has no problem eating when I bring the dish to wherever he is, it can't be an illness. What she's concerned about is not discovering what it was because if he doesn't eat on his own, he will get sick.

    Joe is bothered by the fact that Puffin isn't his usual loud meowing self. He searched the internet for causes for a cat to stop meowing and only came up with sites talking about how to STOP a cat from meowing. Puffin meows, but not in his usual way (like he owns the world). I wish I knew what spooked him. If I could pinpoint when it happened that might narrow things down, but I don't think I'll be able to. I'm just going to continue feeding him by waiting on him until I get the weight back on him and then we'll have to decide what to do. I'm moving their feeding area around, too.

    Have a great day everyone!

    1. Dear Eva,
      I know that you and Joe worry about Puffin. We worry with you and send prayers.

      I make a TV list everyday for Lori. The list for Saturday is all college football. I saw that Georgia was playing, and knew that you would be watching.

      Sorry this note is so short, but I'm getting ready to catch bus. I am already bringing some of Froggy's things home. We don't have a date for her return yet, but it will be soon.

  3. Incredible Georgia game against LSU. We won 44-41. I couldn't believe it.

    I'm so worried about my little Puffball. I know I'm spending too much time looking at him and I guess I can't expect him to put a pound on overnight, but I don't know why he isn't responding. I mean, he's eating when I bring him food, but really not enough to put on weight. He just seems so lethargic. It isn't the amount of time he's sleeping, but the way he acts when he's awake. He's just not his usual jaunty self. Joe has been up in NY with his folks this weekend. When he comes back tomorrow, I'll see what fresh eyes see. I'm afraid I'll have to bring him back to the vet Monday and see if there isn't something else they can do. Maybe they can give him an IV of nutrients or suggest some super high caloric something I can give him. If the tests found no infection or failure of any organs, no temperature or dehydration, I don't know what to do. Bambu doesn't seem to think there is anything wrong with him, but I don't know if he would. The two of them didn't react differently to Boomer when he was dying. It's a worry.

    1. My Deer Eva,
      It is a worry when your babies get sick or get older. We had a brother and sister raised up from kittens. When we lost Zee (sister), her brother Boris (little Bad Boris) would sit for hours looking under the sofa where his sister would hang out. I felt bad for him and started picking him up ad carrying him around. Needless to say, but he got very spoiled...which is really why we have cats. We spoil them, and they spoil us. I hope the things I said are okay. I miss all of our babies.
