Pardon my mememe-ness first thing.

Uh, isn't that what Bitches is for? Because if not, I totally abused that thread.

As have we all.

{{{{{smonster}}}}} Sorry to hear you are having such a sucky start to your day.

((((Shir)))) Dare I ask how the doggie is doing?

Thanks for the love, y'all.

Aims, Liese has the right idea. Freecycle or Craigslist should do the trick.

I'm at work now. Turns out the colleague had to cancel anyway. Now to get on that work thing.

D-Day minus one! That's D as in Doggie, of course.

I bought the Eucerin Sensitive Skin sunblock moisturizer. Broke me out, as did the Aveeno facial moisturizer. What I'm using now is plain Aveeno hand lotion thinned with a little water. But I'm shopping for a hand blender, so I can make up small batches of olive oil, shea butter, and distilled water with maybe some vitamin E and some C for preserving properties. I figure even my skin won't balk at that. Even the sensitive skin stuff has chemicals in it that my face just doesn't like.

Ooo. Next time you're down, come with me to where I get my olive butter. No need for any of the rest. It's perfect as jarred.

You might be getting my bottle. My skin is less than thrilled with it and I am incapable of throwing things out. I need to see if one of my spray on things works on my chest and arms. If it does, Here Have A new bottle.

I'd grabby-hand that. Mineral blocks are the only sunscreen I can wear without my eyes stinging and watering.

Dare I ask how the doggie is doing?

It's hard to tell with the dog. I think he's in better mood today, and we spend some quality time together. There will be a vet consultation this Thursday, and we'll decide what's next for him: more treatment or the shot. The newest symptom is heavy breathing, so yesterday was dedicated for trying to convince my dad to let go of him. I doubt if the steroids are helping him, pain-wise.

So thank you, but I don't need the brackets, just yet. Today was kind of good, actually (considering). He's getting a lot of love and attention and me-trying-to-drive-him-crazy attention today (latest thought: he needs a superman gown! no really, it'll look good on him).

And oh, Fred, a lot of cat~ma for Max.

Liese - It's a 1911 or thereabouts Grinnell & Bros upright. It has a full concert grand harp. It could be a very beautiful piece, but it needs A LOT of work. But whoever wants it can have it. So long as they come get it themselves.

Much cat~ma to Max, Pete.

Today would have been my Dad's 79th birthday and I'm just feeling melancholy and missing him.

Fuck cancer.

But whoever wants it can have it. So long as they come get it themselves.

Seriously, Freecycle is magic, except for the flake factor.

Cat~ma, Fred Pete. And universe? Step the fuck offa FP and Hubs' cats, dammit.
