Sunday

This Sunday was a lost day. Changing the clock forward an hour totally messed up everything.
We didn't get up until 11:30 am. We had pancakes and then Linda showed up. We had to sit and listen to her dramatics. I like Linda, but everything to her is the end of the world. Her circuit breaker for the furnace blew and she tells us that she has no electricity in the whole house. Then about a half an hour later she says she is running a small heater in her living room to keep warm.
OKAYYYYY........She says the office sent her a notice that her water will be off for three days. EXCUSE ME LINDA, we got the same notice because there was a break in the water main and the water was to be off six hours tops for that evening (ending about 5:30 am the next morning)......and to boil our water for three days after. It takes a real rocket scientist to read a notice correctly I guess. Is there no end to her drama? She even made a point of looking in the paper for a new place to live. Then she says some guy is coming to fix the problem. So why did we have to go through all the drama????
Linda had been here about half an hour when Toni showed up. Now Toni is a sweet person. I enjoy talking to her. Unfortunately I had to activate Ed's new cell phone and spent about an hour in the computer room away from our guests. By the time they both left it was 4:30 and almost time to feed the animals (other wise known as slopping the hogs). I hurried in and took my bath, fed the cats and made dinner.
After dinner I gave the dog some chicken broth which she promptly vomited up. She had just had some of her dry dog food so I thought she was feeling better than she had been earlier in the day.
On top of this wonderful day I was having..... I didn't feel good. I had stomach pains and a headache. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Saturday Night Live is too boring tonight

I'm sitting here with our new fur person, Cherrie. You see.....she's a Chihuahua/Terrier so she's a Cherrier. She's from Merced County, California...here (at the Oregon Humane Society) on a second chance program. She is settling in very well and is spoiled rotten already. This spoiling was all accomplished in two short weeks. She really knows how to train humans, huh?

I've just tried to get a partial scholarship to take a watercolor class at one of our local community centers for Spring term. I find with the chronic pain I have, it tends to relax some of the tension and I can mask some of my pain for a couple of hours each week. It's good to get out of the house once and a while. I tend to be more of a shut-in.

I'm sooo thrilled that the other animal that I fell in love with at the Humane Society was adopted today. I was so worried about her. She was only a year and a half and she had to have bladder stones removed before she went up for adoption.

I'm going to have to keep it short this time...It's almost 1:00 am!
