Clear! A Monday jumpstart

I’ve begun to get a bit worried about myself lately.  Not sure if I’m depressed because I’ve been sick or sick because I’ve been depressed, but things were getting a bit out of control.  Life was beginning to consist of get up, have a cup of coffee, go back to sleep.  Get up, eat lunch, [...]

The lost weekend

Hmmm.  I woke up feeling better today.  A bit queasy, but I put the coffee on, let the dog out, and jumped in the shower.  Got out, dried off, got dressed, let the dog in, had coffee and read my emails, facebook posts, etc.  Had some breakfast, and the next thing I know, it’s 4:30 [...]

The cover of the Rolling Stone

Well, not only did I have an article about me in the upcoming edition of the Country Register, but it turns out I have the local plague.  I guess it is contagious enough that it’s made the local evening news tonight.  Apparently, gastroenteritis (commonly referred to as the ‘stomach flu’ even though it is not [...]

Count your blessings

Wow.  Despite having been ill (and still being so, I think) there are many things for which I can be thankful.  For one, my jeans, even fresh out of the wash and dryer (oh so nice and toasty) are feeling rather loose these days.  I believe I’ve lost my holiday pudge plus.  I saw a [...]

Fatigued Friday

I’ve not written for a few days, as I’ve been down with a bit of an intestinal bug since Tuesday afternoon.  This can cause one to not have much enthusiasm for writing, although I have done my share of reading and websurfing.  I think most of you know that I have hypoglycemia as a consequence [...]

Lost and then found!

Well, I figured I’d look in the most inaccessible place in the house first.  I’m so smart.  There she was, way, way, way in the back corner of my 6′ x 6′ cutting tables, firmly ensconced on the top of a box of garment bags, directly behind several wire-basket racks of fabric.  Oy!  There would [...]

Oops

I can’t find Sadie!  She came out from under the recliner last night and started warming up to everyone.  Vince even stopped hissing at her.  We all went to bed early, as I was (and still am) under the weather, and I slept with Ozzie under my left arm, Vince under my right, and Sadie [...]

Here she is!

Well, Sadie has been under the recliner all day, so I found her adoption photo and will post that here.  I’ve plied her with treats, food, and water, and she just came out for a bit, so I don’t want to spook her with camera flash. When she is out in the room, she’s pretty [...]

It’s so quiet!

Well, despite having a bit of a queasy feeling in my stomach about it, I headed off to Greenhill Humane Society yesterday afternoon and adopted the sweetest little black cat named Sadie.  I am hoping that she and Vincent will become friends, snuggle, and keep Vince from howling his fool head off 24/7.  The howling [...]

Doggie Facebook Part Deux

I’m beginning to rally from my bout of laziness, induced by traveling about in dirty weather.  Ozzie and I managed another walk this morning, and the minute we turned off the main road, it became apparent that something unusual was afoot.  We were walking in the road, but Ozzie’s Schnauzer-snout was firmly pressed to the [...]
