Ah, the weather is making me laugh. A week ago, it got up to 90 (32 C). Today, it didn't reach 60 (15.5 C) and it's supposed to get down into the upper 30's (3 C) tonight. They've actually got a frost advisory out! So I'll be covering my most fragile plants tonight, since it's rather early to be letting them die already. What weather! And today was the yearly check-up at the vet for the cats. Two good things happened. I had to wait a long time (because an emergency case came in) which meant Arun actually got tired of exploring the room and settled down (I didn't know that was possible) and they gave me a 10% discount! Anything that keeps the vet bill below $100 is grand by me! Better than that, the vet gave Shado's heart murmur a rating of 4/5--the same as last year. So if it's gotten worse in the interval, it's imperceptible. Thank God for that!

Or something...;) Glad to hear that the kitties are doing well and that the weather is making you happy (even if it's also making you have to work for your plants!) Christina Re: =) If I'd thought to bring a book along, I'd have been quite content to wait much longer; as it is, hauling two cat carriers and a purse is enough already! (I'm sure you're acquainted with the 'hauling too much stuff' feeling! ;) A bit of a shock for them and me, with such a dramatic shift. But I am loving the cool temps! I hope Michael had a wonderful 2nd birthday! Is the 'party' actually tonight? I think my mom mentioned that...

Yeup! Tonight is cake and presents for Mikey...Your brother didn't get home until 4am this morning, and we couldn't really celebrate without him! (Thankfully, the legislators got their work all done in that time, so he'll be home at a reasonable time tonight...). Mikey doesn't know the difference, though! Re: =) Yep, you're probably bound to regret not bringing the diaper bag more than the purse! ;) Ouch! That was a long session! Glad they're done doing their On September 13th, 2007 06:24 pm (UTC), (Anonymous) replied: Re: =) Done! And thanks for the awesome books!! The kids love them! (I think they're pretty cool, too...;) |

Very happy news on Shado heart mummer. SD It looks like it only reached 40 around here...but they're talking freezing or below for Friday night! I hope they change that. Yes, certainly Minnesota craziness. =) Indeed! And she told me Arun's ripped-off claw is healing nicely--she thinks he'll get it back. |
