2-Day
We got up early and took Sheba to see Dr. Patch. Beginning late Friday, Sheba started having problems getting up and down on the furniture and, when she was touched on her sides near the back, she'd yelp out in pain. Uncool. So off to the vet we went. Doc did a white blood cell count on her to make sure it wasn't a kidney infection. Nothing. So he's thinking it's either a kidney stone or a pulled muscle. She's on muscle relaxants for the next few days to see if that does the trick. If not, we'll have X-rays to see if a stone can be detected. Actually, she seems some better today, so maybe it's just a pulled muscle. Here's hoping. Either way, she'll be with Doc until Saturday 'cos we're boarding everyone tomorrow for our NYC trip.
After taking Sheba to the vet, we came back home for a short while, or what should have been a short while. Johnna came down for a visit in order to get our itinerary and confirm instructions on feeding the cats and opossums while we're away. While Aunt Tudi was chit-chatting with her, I fell asleep on the couch. I was having one of those bizarro narcolepsy attacks. So, instead of our leaving around 12 to go to pay some bills and run by Wal-Mart, we ended up leaving around 2 PM.
Aunt Tudi got herself a couple of really nice blouses and I got some make-up and panties (what a combo!). We got home a little after 4, at which time I jumped online and wrote my glowing report on Barry Andrews' voice. Then I jumped in the shower and off to Llew's I went, visiting shortly before 8. After spending a very pleasant hour and a half with him, I returned home and painted my nails for the first time in about 2 years. They are now a fantabulous purple!
So that was my day. Boring, eh? But it was productive and pleasant. That's all that matters in my ongoing quest for a stress-free existence.
**EDIT** Oh and I haven't written a stitch today, but I plan on getting some vampirage down before I leave tomorrow. Was thinking about taking the computer with me but....I don't want to take any risks. So I'm burning the tale onto a disc to take with me in the event something happens to the house (like fire, heaven forbid). ::firms nods::
