This is one of those de rigeur end of the year wrap ups. Yet I find myself rather loathe to write anything at all. 2005 didn’t suck for me as much as it has for others. 2004 was a nightmare, but 2005 brought with it our move to Fayetteville, so …
The Bean told Santa she wanted a pink scooter and a bouncy ball. No tears, a little shy at first and waited pretty well (with a few forays to toy stores) for 1.5 hours. We also ended up in line with some folks we knew and their little baby boy …
Looks like Miss Nin’s thyroid is fine. The doc thinks she might have an infection so she’s on amoxicillen and baytril for the next two week. So that makes three of us on antibiotics 😉 Keep your paws cross this clears everything up. She goes back for another fructosamine and …
Hey, anybody wondering what to get me for Christmas? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pete-Townshend-Signature-Les-Paul-Special_W0QQitemZ7572481856QQcategoryZ104408QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem You don’t have to gift wrap it 😉
They had an all volunteer nativity pageant (complete with bunnies and wise women and extra stars)at Church today. Emily was a Shepherd and James was a sheep. It was so cute my head exploded. Then they started singing while she was up there and she was having none of it. …
Got Miss Ninny a full geriatric checkup with her new vet at the All Cats Clinic (recommended by a friend). Dr. Larsen is not as charismatic as Dr. Bryan, Dr. Zink or Dr. Rovner (I will *always* miss those three guys) but she was patient, gentle and thorough. I think …

We’re still sick here, but have half the outside decorations up and the tree goes up today. Will update with more pictures of the actual house later today 🙂 but for now here is this–snoozy folk getting well:
Anyway, on a humorous note. There is not EVEN a 1/4 inch of snow on the ground and the schools closed. Seriously. It used to take a LOT more than that when I lived here, I swear. And Illinois did have an impact on me in this way , I …
Bean= cold Saturday through Monday, still sniffly today but in school. Me= cold Sunday evening through today, very sick (of course with my sinuses of doom) slept about 25 minutes last night. Jam= sniffly but not sick yet and leaving for New Yawk on Wednesday. Foo One wonders: How long …
In the spirit of doing things that are good for me (and ultimately for the family) I found my walking park and have set aside an hour each day to do it. It feels indulgent but if I can convince myself it is ifor the good of everyone (my health …
