So, you know that old saw about the best laid plans of mice and men? That was the last couple weeks for me. It started, really, around the weekend of the 18th-19th. We were out doing our usual Saturday grocery shopping/errands day, and the BaldMan kept getting dizzy spells, especially when he was getting out … Continue reading Monday Musings: There’s a Week and a Half I’ll Never Get Back
Hello, Head Cold, my old friend. You've come to visit me again. With your phlegm always creeping, And my tired eyes are weeping. And the germs that were planted in my brain Still remain Within the sounds of hacking. And that, my friends, is how my week is going. How's yours? ====================================================== Medusa “Deuce” Grainger … Continue reading Tuesday is Tough
Yes, yes, it was. I spent most of it in the car, driving back and forth between home and the hospital. On Friday, the BaldMan was admitted with a cellulitis infection in his left leg. This is not a new thing. He's had them before, and was in hospital with the first one back a … Continue reading Tuesday Thoughts: Well, That Was a Weekend

I'm late getting this out, but it's been a Monday morning, for sure. Mr. Lambeau had a sick tummy this morning. That's the second time in a couple days. Not sure what's going on- maybe the heat, but he spends most of his time inside in the AC. He has wanted to go out and … Continue reading Monday Musings: It Has Been A Monday
Like most of the area, we had a doozy of a winter storm here yesteday. Snowed pretty much all day, with lots of wind and drifting. The official snow total here is 13.5", but I think we got a bit more up here on the hill. The dog was rather unhappy about the whole affair. … Continue reading Monday Musings: We Got Snow!
Oh, look- the world is still out there! And all you lovely people, too. Hello! I know I have been MIA for a week or so and I apologize. Our family Thanksgiving was November 17 this year, due to scheduling, which seems to get more interesting every year. We had out of town company, as … Continue reading Monday Musings: And She Rose, Blinking, Into the Light
Most extensive apologies for the lack of blogging last week. We are going through a bit of a rough time here. One of our ElderCats, Miss Ginger, is not well. At all. I took her to the vet on 10/19 because she was not eating well and she had a lump on her belly. Turns … Continue reading Monday Musings: A Rough Week
I am taking a sick day. I don't often do that, but this cold/bronchitis/whatever thing seems to have taken up permanent residence, and I am doing my dead-level best to evict it. So, no profound (or not-profound) thoughts today. But here, have a picture I took the other day from our deck. The leaves are, … Continue reading Monday Musings: Out, Damned Sickness, Out!
"With the wheezes and the sneezes, and a sinus that's really a pip." Of course, those are lyrics from "Adelaide's Lament", a song from Guys and Dolls by Frank Loesser. And that pretty much sums up how I have felt this week. The BaldMan brought some sort of killer virus into the house. Now, it's my … Continue reading Friday Review: The Wheezes and the Sneezes (or The Head Cold from Hell)
