Smart cats!
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
We once had a cat that we allowed to roam - she never left our yard. Once - in her 15-year life - she caught a baby bird. Brought it in, set it down on the floor and looked at it ... while the bird glared up at her and chirped angrily. Her instincts only took her so far. After that, she gave up hunting and settled for sitting in the kitchen looking like she was starving until she was fed.

Yay hunting kitties. The last thing mom's cst cat brought in the house was a bat.
There hasn't been an opportunity for Scrappy or Duchess to kill something. Or penny when she was here. But she is at mom's again. Scrappy was bullying her, turns out he was super jealous

Ann, that's a ferret.
So, in the perpetual drama that my life has become. (Cue Roseanne Roseannadanna: It's always something.)
I've been diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelilnating Polyneuropathy -- or it's easier to call it CIDP. Short version -- my immune system is attacking the peripheral nerves in my feet (mostly) and my hands.
I walk with a cane now. Without treatment, there's a good chance I'd end up in a wheelchair. Luckily, there's treatment -- consisting of IV injections, 5 days a month, lasting several hours each time. So, hey, more teleworking, less commuting. My goal is to improve enough to join a bowling league this fall. The neurologist says it's feasible.
Bonus irony: I've probably had it for quite a while. So last year's back surgery was probably not necessary.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh dear, Fred. I'm glad you have a diagnosis and treatment plan. It's always something is right.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, Fred, those sound like pretty unpleasant symptoms. I'm glad you know what it is and have a plan!

Hope the bowling will be very feasible for you.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I cheer for the feasibility and the treatment.

Oh wow, Fred. Very happy you got the diagnosis and treatment plan and bowling feasibility, but ouch, the way. Much, much ~ma to you.

Fred I hope the treatments work better than expected.
I have new glasses. Progressives. This is weird. I don't think the prism strength is right but I have to wait a few days to adjust.
Also work continues to be its own stress. But they are going to try and get me transferred in about 2 weeks
