Glad Kato's thing is no big thing, Steph!
Poor Taz has to stay at the vet's all weekend, he hasn't peed since they removed the catheter. We visited him this morning and he is quite a bit more lively than he was before, which is great. He obviously wanted out of there, which is less great, since he's stuck there for a while longer.
We went up to bed at- no lie- 8:30pm last night so when we got up around 7:30 I thought it would be a good idea to hit the farmers market for some shrimp and fish, since we haven't bought any for ages. So we did that and then drove to Metairie to pick up Taz's prescription and then drove to the vet's to drop the meds off, and then drove out to Hollygrove farm to get our box (plus oyster mushrooms, muscadines, and yard eggs) and then headed home with a quick stop at the brewing store to pick up a few bottling gaskets for beer bottling today.
Got home, tidied up, cleaned the floors, and got the laundry on.
I am wiped! We haven't been this productive in one go for ages. I should go to the library today but I don't know if I have it in me.
Anxiety is a real problem though. And I wouldn't be surprised if it was leading to more physically obvious problems like insomnia and back pain. Mine can, without a doubt.
What Cass said.
Glad to hear Kato is okay.
I got five hours of sleep last night. Not enough. Cranky.
We went to a concert last night, then got up at 6 to be ready for the people filming at our house to arrive at 7. EXCEPT THEY MOVED THE SHOOT TO 11AM AND NO ONE TOLD US. I would have gotten up at 7 anyway for skate class, but poor DH and our houseguest dragged themselves out of bed for nothing.
As soon as they get here we are going to Malibu, to the Getty Villa. Beautiful stuff is always soothing when one is exhausted.

Zen, I got it! I will reply when I'm a little more alert.
Okay, this semi-chronic illness thing, with the fatigue and the muscle aches? BORING. I don't want to play this game any more.
Is there a small breed dog that is good with kids ages two and five. Easyish and the less shedding the better. Something under thirty pounds, I think. P thanks you in advance. I always suggest a Lab but she nixes it for size.
My cousins had a series of Boston Terriers, which were quite friendly, if you can cope with the short-nose snort.
Labradoodles, for a hybrid breed, are actually pretty good. All of the friendliness/family ease of a Lab but with the coat of a poodle which is hypoallergenic and not too bad with the shedding. They also tend to be smaller in size. (The ones my friends have is about 35 lbs.)
Good suggest, Barb. I will admit, I think a Lab is the right dog for them but since apparently I don't get to entirely choose another family's dog. Silly.
