Vet Visit

I decided to be a rebel and take the day off today.  I’ve been getting a little burned out from all the overtime I’ve been doing.  I even get to do six hours tomorrow (Saturday)!  I got things ready for the Recreational Aircraft Association meeting on Monday, as well as the “motivational” presentation I’m giving to a church group in a few weeks.

I did have to go out at 5:15 though.  Little Abby and I went to the vet.  She’s still having poopy issues.  Here she is waiting patiently for the vet:

They had to take blood, which was a little hard to watch.  Poor Abby handled the stick in the neck like a pro.  Only one little squeaky mew.

When I went out into the waiting room to wait for her blood work results, there were two girls with their dogs.  They both looked and one said “I’ve never seen a hairless cat before!”  I replied “She’s not supposed to be hairless.  The vet asked me to shave her a little for her needle, and I think I over did it!”  They both gasped!  Tee hee.  I told them I was just kidding.  Mind you, I had the exact same reaction when I got the bill for $300!  Ugh.  She’s worth it though.

When I got home, all of the kitties decided they would gather around for an early snack:

I had to send them on their way though – let’s not get piggish!

Speaking of food, my friend at work pretends to get violently ill whenever I mention certain foods.  One of them is cottage cheese and berries.  Well, here’s what I had for dinner tonight – just had to add it to my blog:

Mmmmm….yummers!

I had quite the reaction to what I saw in my bedroom last night.  I walked in to see this:

Since I totally hate spiders, I jumped back when I saw this huge bugger on my floor.  At closer glance, I realized something:

It was my little fake one, that Boo must have found and neatly placed on the floor to scare the crap out of me!  It worked!

Today’s symptoms: Feeling pretty good!  The last week and a half has been amazing.  I was a little tired today, but I’m sure it was due to the overtime.  I’ll kinda be glad when it’s over in a few weeks.  Still having some sharp, crushing pains in my right arm and hand, but they’re better than they were a couple days ago.
