Merry (belated) Christmas! I had a fantastic time with family and friends eating hords of seafood on Christmas Eve and then ham and such on Christmas Day. Me nieces and nephews are a hoot and they all seemed to enjoy themselves (and their presents) very much. I recieved oodles this year. So much my parents are going to have to bring some of the gifts out to me when they come to Baltimore next.
Today is my nieces 8th birthday. I will not be going. Not because of family but because I have chosen to stay home with Meep (our cat) who is, quite literally, in the process of dying. She can hardly move. I have never seen something so sad. She's taken a turn after Thanksgiving- losing more than half her body weight and now she can barely walk. I don't think she's eating or drinking... Mom and dad left this morning to go out to the bank and I heard Meep crying in the hallway so I stopped eating my soup and sat on the floor with her for an hour even though my leg fell asleep, painfully, and she crawled into my lap wincing and making sad pain squeeks the whole time. And I just sat thbere petting her, crying, and talking to her nicely. She just wants to be with her people right now- so we made a box for her to lay in and put in one of her favorite spots in the living room so she can be around everyone. Mom and dad are going to stop by Ilya's party, but I want to be with my Meep, the sweetest cat I have ever come across.
