Sorrow: My sister who came in for her friend's birthday and is staying with her says she will only be around for under 5 minutes tomorrow when we have a Father's Day pizza party. Its more important for her to spend time with her friend I guess and its really disheartening.

Sorry to say, Amazee, but I think there's only one thing you can do to express your displeasure and how much this has hurt you. When she comes? Make sure everyone's out.

Sorrow: Have to send my cat hubbard to the vet today, but it's to see if the tumor problem can be fixed. medicine was working fine until last week, so we're hoping we can fix this.

Joy, managed to get hold of a 1930's hardback English translation of Bambi, a life in the woods with illustrations (love a real book), now to read it.

Joy: Her tests came back and she's doing fine! Just have to clean her more and we're going to try different meds.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
So glad to hear that. We had to take Sophie to the emergency clinic back on June the 9th. She's begun having lower back pain, something we've been dreading ever since she joined us fifteen years ago. Havin a missing front paw is endearing, but we knew eventually her posture compensations would become complications. She's recuperating now but has a poor appetite and the pills knock her out, which is worrisome. Mom is off in Wisconsin and Sophie misses her as well (she loves her papa but she ADORES her mom). Best to your feline - I miss Andy very much.

Oh I know you didn't Cobra - actually I owe you one for one of the longest, loudest laugh out louds I've had in quite a while!
Andy answered his Creator's invitation to that great Catnip pasture just before we moved back to New Hampshire. The Kitty-shaped urn holding his cremains sits on the top shelf of my work desk, presiding over my labors with predictable feline bemusement. He was ten years a good chum.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
update: I promise myself never to search those things anymore even if it kicks me, those searches aren't good for me so I rather stop so I won't harm my mental health, I rather stay away from these types of images and videos if I want to keep my sanity...

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Well, I'd give you a hug but I don't want to look silly on the internet. Hands Amazee a cream pie. Grimaces...
Re: Joys And Sorrows
Hope the visit went well, Amazz. Or better next time maybe. Anyhow, enjoy your cream pie.

At least I was able to request it so the only thing I can do now is wait.

Sorrow: My air conditioner is leaking. Like are you kidding me? It's made my carpet in my room all soggy. Unbelievable. Plus who knows how many days of heat waves we are gonna get.
Re: Joys And Sorrows
Gasp.
Re: Joys And Sorrows
Well at least the carpet will be cooler to walk on.
Air conditioned houses sound very exotic to me, I just have windows.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Serious empathies here, Amazz. Our HVAC blew a valve on Wednesday so, until they can get the part, I'm just able to run fans to keep the house cool. Mercifully, the weather's gotten rainy and a bit colder so it's not too bad. However, when it get fixed, dunno - repair folks are overwhelmed with business and appointments hard to make. (Question: if you are not "overwhelmed", can you still be "whelmed"?)Amazee Dayzee wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 12:09 pm Sorrow: My air conditioner is leaking. Like are you kidding me?

Anyhow, I thought of you when all this foolishness started.
