We rented The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons last night and I cried! Of course I cried when I watched Mama Mia! Friday afternoon also!
I've been doing a lot of nothing and I can feel my energy being sapped by ever growing depression. A constant feeling of nausea, difficulty sleeping, craving of comfort foods (I can justify that, I need the extra weight to withstand the chemotherapy!), and just not feeling like doing anything. I'm hoping that once I know the treatment plan I can get started on a routine that will include exercise and returning to work. Right now I am becoming an expert at video solitaire and a midnight news junkie!
Our foster kitten got sent home from the adoption fair early, again! She is really a sweet cat, just gets freaked out by crowds. She is learning to play with the dogs, it is just our 17 year old cat HATES her and we just can't continue to keep them separated. Right now we only let them out in shifts. I've made an elaborate gate system so the kitten can't run into where Tipper is locked up when we open the door to the back of the house. I had put a screen door on the laundry room where Jessie, the Basement Cat, stays when tipper is out, but she managed to bust through that! Anyone want a really pretty orange tabby female cat with dark amber eyes? Unfortunately the longer we foster her the more attached we get, but we just can't put Tipper through the stress... If our lives aren't complicated enough!
Join me as I continue my journey through life that includes stops in the land of cancer not once, but twice! Laugh and cry with me, but most important, learn how love is what it is all about!
The Miracle of the Shoes
The old adage of waiting for the other shoe to drop was one used by a bunch of us in an email support group years ago where, because of difficulties outside of our control, we seemed to get hit with crisis’s all too often without any warning.
In the last year or so I’ve been the beneficiary of quite a number of shoes. You’d think they would have to run out, or at least get to the slipper section over time, however with every shoe that drops, a new pair miraculously appears precariously positioned over my head, just high enough to give a good wallop when it too falls, and we are talking about good solid footwear.
