I still haven't heard from MPI and I'm not going to bother following up with them ( Read more... )

This past week was...not one of my best weeks, to put it mildly ( Read more... )

It's been a difficult decision that has been going on for months. We finally decided to re-home Poe. He just left for his new home a few minutes ago. While my heart hurts, I'm relieved knowing he's going to home surrounded by love ( Read more... )

I'm happy to report the vast majority of cleaning that I set out to do on my days off has been done. Yay! The house is cleaned to an acceptable level.

Gah. I desperately need a haircut. I should have booked it for this weekend instead of next. *sigh ( Read more... )

I'm so irritated over my eyeball. As you may be aware, I've been having trouble off and on with my right eyeball when I'd wear contacts and sometimes not wearing them. The last time I went to the optometrist a few weeks ago, she was stumped as to why I had dry patches on my eyeball. She guessed it may have had something to do with the cold/flu ( Read more... )
