Hil, yay on the cholesterol and boo on the thyroid levels! Have you had thyroid issues before?

Yeah, the thyroid has been borderline for a while, so it's tested every year, just to keep an eye on it.

Ugh. TENS unit isn't enough for my legs today. Took some Vicodin.

Thyroid issues are a pain because low thyroid really fucks with one's mental well-being, my mental well-being anyway. But the upside is they are easy to treat. Sorry to hear the pain is so bad today, Hil.

I got enough sleep last night! I feel like a new person.

Interesting. I'm sprinkling Cosequin on her food right now; have you tried that and feel that Pet Naturals is better?

The Pet Naturals is the first thing I tried with Harvey. I was so pleased that I emailed the company to tell them.

Thanks for the info, WindSparrow. I'll pick some up next time I'm at the pet store.

Nora, you know I'm down for Parasol's. I will budget for that shit. Plus, the day bartender is cute and charming. *ahem*

Right. Off to catch some kittens.

So I totally start all my sentences with "So," as well. And also "And."

Coffee faucet is wrongsauce. Purse is super cute. Argh, Hil, on the pain. Yay for sleep, Burrell!

I am in full-on summer logistics freakout mode, which I had successfully deferred until now. (I wanted to say averred, but I knew that was wrong, just couldn't figure out what was right. But I did. So it's good. And now you know my whole mental process for no reason.) I think it's because I'm just now working through the SO's tour schedule and it is bonkers.

I am torn between how it's too little time with the families and too much. And how there's too much to get done and not enough. I just need to chill, probably.

I need to work on learning to just chill, Liese. Whenever I allow for a bit of chaos in the day, things go so much smoother.

My great aunt died, Grandma E's sister. It's a good thing because she was in pain and couldn't speak, she died in her sleep.

Her sons are down at the beach doing repairs on their cottage (they had water damage) with some of their kids and grandkids. One of her sons had some sort of respiratory distress and had to go to the ER (before they knew about her death).

::high-fives Liese::

I am at the vet with the kittens. Good thing I wore gloves, one was feisty as hell and bit my finger (did not break skin). I fear I'm going to end up with them, though. I had to name them for the vet's system, so I went with Troy and Abed - no idea what sex they actually are, so they may get renamed.

Ahaha, two cats just got called back - "Scully and Mulder?"

Oh, askye, I'm sorry. Even when you know it's good and it's time, it's still painful to lose them.

My boss has called me several times this morning. I will spare you the details, but I'm now in one of those furious moods where it's a good thing I'm not in the office anymore, because I would be saying shit that might lead me to looking for a new job. And if she calls me "lady" in that smirking voice one more goddam time, I'm gonna blow a gasket.

why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit?

Zen, can I tag this?

Epic, be my guest, and happy birthday!

Grazie!

Can't meara. Please assume that I sent appropriate vibes as I was reading along. Went to midnight showing of Brave for my Bday last night. Was fun. Now am exhausted. I don't do coffee. Someone set up a Pepsi IV? Thanks ever so.
