I woke up this morning with a sore throat and a 3ft snow drift on my steps. I shovelled and called in sick, cancelled my hair appointment, and went back to bed. I woke up at 3:45. I can't remember the last time I actually slept all day, even when sick.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Coughing and snotting bite big time. Worse - buying more tissue and it ends up being really thin and flimsy and not up to demands.
Betrayed by my tissue.
Awwww.... sorry about Wednesday, -t. Sending hugs, because I've been there with a pet so many times... but the four-foots, they are good to have around even when they don't live long enough to suit me.

You are also Brave, woman.
I insist on Puffs Plus tissues. I use them so often you'd think economy would be the move, but no. I like skin on the end of my nose, thanks, and the Puffs Plus has the looootion. And they are thicker and plusher, besides. I'll scrimp on TP, but not on nose-tissue.
Of course, we have to get regular tissue for the glasses and the odd jobs sort of uses. Not wasting the loooootion, nuh-uh.
Sending all you sickies get-betters and the good tissues, with the (say it with me and Peanut) looootion.

We could have used your skills at the House o' Reason today. Ruthven did NOT want to go in the kitty carrier to visit the vet (his annual medication check), and I am now sporting some impressive scratches.
I insist on Puffs Plus tissues.
As do I. But somehow we ended up with Puffs regular and it JUST ISN"T THE SAME.
Timelies all!
I'm so sorry, -t.
The secret to my success was a) clip the nails the day before and b) the bath bag.
Just a mesh laundry bag with the corner cut out the size of a cat's neck, and the draw string put into the new hole. This muffles the front feet and the intrepid cat wrangler can just hang on to the neck part. They calm down when allowed to stand on their own four feet, but never will they like being dunked into a tub of water.
Too bad! I don't like having their fleas.
I am allergic to Puffs Plus. It is tragic.
Uh, what, bonny? What happened?
Notes in bitches, Zen. It's a time of massive change in this little 'ol life o mine.
