Re: 26 March
Good evening,
My cat Boyd turned ‘16’ today. He is doing poorly, and is overnight at the vet’s being rehydrated by IV, and is on pain meds and an anti-nausea medication. He has pancreatitis. My poor boy; he never adjusted to having to leave his home. I feel so badly for him. I wish ex-HB would have kept him after the divorce for Boyd’s sake; so Boyd wouldn’t have to leave his home, his yard, his dog, his fireplace. But, he doesn’t like cats.
It looks like I’m not quite in the bad part of the storm area, Lav. They are worried about possible tornadoes. I hear the rain starting now!
I’m not ready for a rheumatologist yet either. You & I both know that the only thing they can offer is powerful pain drugs that can be damaging to the rest of the body, but no cure. My fingers don’t hurt much -it’s just another way that I am breaking down and aging.
You’re right, Lav -nothing would have changed if we had stayed married. My patient sister is trying to tell me the same thing. There was no hope left for a good relationship. And there never really was a good relationship. How long can one hope for something that can’t be? 35 years was long enough.
While taking care of my former next door neighbor’s cat today, at the house next to my old house (ex-HB’s house), I was surprised that he left his house and waved to me from his truck in the middle of the morning! He is such a stickler for being at work by 7 am or so! Well, upon a little investigation…there was another car in the garage and a woman in the house. So, he has a girlfriend. Wish the daughters could have given me a heads up about this. Maybe I wouldn’t have grieved the divorce date so. Not their place I guess though. Well, good for him.
The dreadful news never ends, what with another school shooting the other day. So many calamities!
TG, “GROW the conversation”…I dislike dopey business world lingo!
PQ, thank you for indicating that it took you a full year to get over your divorce too. I love how the community centre was almost a calling for you, and then ended up being your job! And you found your new place in life, and never looked back! (Obviously I need to quit looking back, especially in light of new developments.)
Pie, how’s the big dog doing with your little dogs? Do they like having the visitor with them? It’s good that they have each other. Boyd is a little lonely all alone.
Mick, hope it’s a good trip for you & Julie; and her dad hangs in there.
Thank you for being my friends.
