Easter Cats So, I have this really gorgeous flame point himalayan (that would be a cat for those of you who are not ailurophiles, aka cat lovers) and I had this great (ok, stupid) idea to dress him up as an Easter Bunny to take a picture and post on here for all my DS friends. I mean what could be cuter than a cat dressed up as a bunny? hmmm, the first thing that comes to mind wo...
Ok this journal may not be for everyone, but I just have to write about it, so here we go... Fun with Femine Hygiene I went to our house in Rock Hill this past weekend and because my husband wasn't expecting me I went by the grocery store to grab something for dinner. I didn't know what he had to eat at the house, so I was going to call him when I got into the store. ...
As I watch our stock market tumbling I find myself feeling cynical, how did these folks get us IN to this mess! I then remember one of the the coolest coolest things about my job....THE PEOPLE...I get inspired all over again and I have to think we will all be ok. When I do talks in schools or community groups I tell kids about the long haul medicine entails&nb...

I know that I understand, how little they really know. And that look of pity on their face, will always show. They can't look past and get to know, the person deep inside. They never see the real me, the part this chair can't hide. I want them to know I have a mind, I am capable of love. I have lots of hopes and desires, and things I dream of. I know my legs may be useless, I may travel b...
I cant believe that I have actually played host to TWO greyhounds here tonight - when Daisy is coming tomorrow. The greyhound I fell in love with last month, which gave rise to my having Daisy, had a friend staying - ARNIE!.....who was absolutely huge. Her owner brought them both! The meeting I have monthly at my house, to do with some work I do, is very informal, about eight of ...
I am very pleased with Daisy if a bit stressed! Jenny the greyhound lady had such a set of rules and regulations and must dos and must donts that for a while I have felt a nervous wreck with the poor dog. She is exceptionally shy and still is - though she has surprised herself a couple of times by getting up from her bed (a duvet) and wagging her tail at me!! &n...
Stupid Things I Have Done Since I Have Become A Cat Slave... Too bad the emoticon can't be blonde! LOL! This subject comes about because I have just taken Bussey to the vet and spent $150 to have a pimple popped on her face...how sad is that?? I was talking to one of my friends earlier tonight about the silly things we do for our cats (no, Testycatlady, it wasn't you because YOU...
I am really really pleased with my middle room (lets for the moment forget the piles of stuff put into my sitting room...lol).............Tenant J helped me move his table (that I am storing for him) over to the other end of the room, which means I can see my students there when they come in to talk over case studies and things - and then, when eldest son comes down this coming Friday, he can put...
