Tinta, the cat I adopted last week for our vet tech program is
sick........
It's so bizarre, because I spent time with her yesterday and she looked
totally fine.  Then this morning, I noticed she had clear nasal

Yesterday DH John went off to the specialist to get the results of his
examination and I stayed at home gnawing my nails and thinking dark
thoughts.   A visitor called in and was there when John came in
clutching his X rays.   Seems he has diverticulitus, a condition

OK, I have a finished cross stitch that I am getting ready to frame.  I have
pressed it and mounted it.  I left the ironing board out while the iron
cooled.
Left the room to get my cutting board for the mat.

OK, I finaly started to carry out my promise to get my own, personal, web
site up again.  Although it's far, far from finished (most of the pages are
still blank), I would like some feedback, if you don't mind) on the

The Job is alot of work and I am one of 3 people in the prepress
department but I am constantly busy.

Well, I made the aforementioned AHA recipe, honey-roasted chicken, for dinner.
We used regular teriyaki because we couldn't find low-sodium stuff in the

money do we spend on crap like this when there are *real* bad guys out
there.

Last night I was feeling cruddy after a nasty day at work, so my Louie went
to the store to pick me up something rather than cook. He brought me a nice
little tray of sushi, otherwise known as a plate of Are You Out Of Your

This AM I found a dead calico on one of our more busier streets.  I
pulled over and checked her - she was intact but not breathing.  Pretty

and they checked her for a chip - no chip. They are going to keep her

Have I got a cat with a case of OCD?  The only thing he plays with,

Yes, we've all experienced this.  Some more (cats) than others.
I just changed the sheets.  Persia didn't come charging in until I went to
put the top-sheet on.  I was still trying to figure out which way is UP and
flipping the sheet out in all directions looking for the top.  She ...

The story behind Cleo, the newest addition is not particularly clear,
but she was a "brought in to PTS" at a vet for being "unwanted".
Cleo, when I got her, was a biter whilst petting. It was one of the
