I think many can agree the weather has just been crazy. Today, for instance, I woke up to thunder, lightning, and rain. And just yesterday, it was super sunny and hot. It was so hot I had to close the living room curtains because when the sun gets to that side of the house, it cooks the house. It is like that every year, the sun that is. The thunderstorm is another story. All through May it has been raining, and cold. It's unusually cold for that time of the year, which postponed working on the yard. Yesterday, my husband took out the bags of mulch and placed them near the areas where he is going to work. We took out the cushions for the deck furniture also, only for him to bring them in, in the morning. I popped out of bed, thinking oh my gosh, the cushions are going to be drenched. It was raining awhile so I saw it to be pointless Continue Reading
I Know It Has Been Months
I am embarrassed for waiting so long to post. I know better than that. I need to change that. Today my cat Lily has a vet appointment. Last night we gave her 1 pill of gabapentin and about 2 hours later she was really out of it. I looked for her in the room where she usually naps/sleeps but she wasn't there. Earlier I blocked the cat door to the basement, so she wouldn't trip going down the stairs. I found her by the water fountain, apparently she needed water, I am guessing she had some. She was laying down just flat on the carpet, not loafing. I thought yeah the medicine must have hit her. So I picked her up. She usually protests when we try to pick her up, by meowing. No meow came out of her. So I gently picked her up and took her to the room. I placed her on a bag of shoes for some reason she wanted to lay on earlier, as it was down Continue Reading
So Much Going On!
Gosh, where do I start? Let me look back to see what I wrote about last. Okay, so I talked about the internet situation, which was finally resolved and so far everything is going well. We are happy about that. I also talked about Pepper, the porch/deck kitty. Well, she is still here, hanging around as usual. I reached out to the same people that I contacted the first time, and they checked and will have an opening before winter. They asked me to take care of her until then. I really hope they aren't messing with me. I am really counting on them, or I would have gone to someone else. I guess we will see. I recently gave her a dewormer, because I noticed tapeworms, and didn't want any around, because of the other ferals. Now sure it's possible they have it as well, especially if they hunt and eat animals they catch. But I try to make it Continue Reading
