Morgan’s home!

She was so tired and hungry!   It’s like she’s trying to make up for the eating she didn’t do since Friday.  Then she takes a nap.
I went into the bedroom to change out of work clothes, and she rolled in the bed, celebrating being back in it.  I tried to get a camera or at [...]

Morgan update: Monday morning

I called the vet a little while ago: she has her appetite back and she started pill antibiotics.  If she keeps that down, she can come off the IV.  So they’ll let her come home tonight if everything’s okay.
But her thyroid tests may not be in until Wed.  I’m still praying that it’s not her [...]

Morgan update

John and I visited Morgan who is doing better.  Her fever is gone and her cough is better; she ate food for the first time although she didn’t like eating sitting up and having to stay sitting for a few minutes after it, but maybe it worked, because she didn’t get sick.
We asked if we [...]

My dog Morgan is in the hospital

If you’re not a pet person, you don’t want to read any further.  I got nothing for you this time.
Morgan has been sick for a day; she couldn’t keep even water down.  Last night, if I kept her from eating or drinking a lot, but something small, it was okay, although not her normal health.  [...]

I’m Gonna Always Love You! by Muppet Babies

Who else remembers this?  The ony good thing about Muppets Take Manhattan!  When this movie came on cable when I was a kid, I’d forward to this part and just watch it over and over.  Did I post this already?  Who cares, it’s that good!
Baby Rowlf was my favorite!  They’re all cute, but he just [...]

Twenty-five things about me

A friend sent me this: you read their 25 things and then write your own.  Here was my response.
1. I was named after the country of Ireland. That means I’m named after 4,109,086 people. Nobody can top that except that wrestler, China!
2. My favorite cut of meat is Hugh Jackman.
3. I have 2 children if [...]

Funny dog cartoon video from the Simon’s Cat creator!

The fantastic animator Simon Tofield, who makes the great the Simon’s Cat series, has a brand new cartoon!
Simon’s Sister’s Dog ‘Fed Up’

Elphie and Casey looked up a few times during this: they must have recognized their own tricks!
And John & I do make sure that a little treat is just [...]

We’re taking names and kicking–

I finally had enough and went to the doctor’s last night.  Making the appointment ended up being perfect timing because on top of the congestion and coughing, my sinuses crashed on the way home, making me dizzy and extremely tired.  I had to put the window down so I didn’t fall asleep.
Apparently I have that [...]

Here we go again….

My stepfather is giving us our mom’s things on Sunday. There’s a few interesting points.
First off, my sister Cheryl arranged this and told the family about it so they could be there on Sunday — except me.  Cathi had to forward all the email because I wasn’t included.  We’re guessing Cheryl thinks I’m still fighting [...]

Feliz Navidad!

Since my friend Maria celebrates Christmas on the Epiphany –
– actually, I’ll back up here.  The Hispanic cultures do it right: when they celebrate, they CELEBRATE! For example, in Spain where Maria lives, they start small on Christmas Eve with different things to do each day on the 12 days of Christmas until the final [...]
