AHEM! Let me state FOR THE RECORD, I did NOT EVEN NOTICE the actual cat at the bottom of the picture when I took the picture of the soil bag (so you could see what I was looking at) See what 2-3 hours of sleep and medical stuff making you nuts can do to you? UGH!..
Wow, what a day I've had so far. I've been awake roughlly since 3 AM, I keep having insomnia because the pain is so bad. (I just started nuvijil this morning, hope that helps some of these symptoms). I did a little research on my phone cuz I was wide awake. I got up probably around 5ish and stayed up. Took a shower, jumped into my sweats, and later turned up the heat cuz I'm having chills. BTW I'm thinking of starting a blog, or a journal @ CaringBridge.com if they allow just anybody, so keep your eyes open if you want to follow my medical stuff. ANYWAY I wanted to stay on target with breakfast, so ate a little after 8 when I normally get up, took pills, had some tea.
I came back to the computer and was telling the cat that she's been a very good kitty and how much I love her. I apologized for being abrupt and distant and skittish and not feeling well lately.. all of this while she was on the windowsill. Well sometimes the way she breathes or makes these weird grumbling noises, I know something's up (there have been a variety of cats in the area, stressing her out. For the last couple of days, she's hidden under the dining room table (most of the day)on one of the chairs, which is right next to the back door, with lots of windows, so she can see what's going on.) ANYWAY, sorry this is so long and "Family Circus" like... it takes me forever to tell a story, just ask John. :P So I get up from the computer to take a look, I don't see anything at first, I was very careful with maneuvering the curtains as to not get attacked by Nert, as I sometimes do for scoping out why she's in distress. Uh, I saw what looked like a dead cat, based on John's description of a new cat I hadn't seen yet, sounded like a calico cat. (I called him and asked him to bring a pseudo body bag, explained what I thought was going on, because after flicking the window a few times, no response)... another flick and the cat batted at me. She's done this before, but today was weird. I immediately lost my balance big time, (since I've had this latest health stuff, I've been losing my balance easily sometimes)fell over backwards, into the chair, and kept falling to the ground, taking the chair with me. My reading glasses went flying off my face, and i hurt my left wrist and magnified the pain in the lower right rib area. It was funny but not so funny. After I got up and picked everything up and made sure my pulse was somewhat back to normal, I went outside to investigate... approaching slowly, no movement from the "cat". Upon closer investigation, it was part of the rubble we have in the backyard, an old white bag of fertilizer, some at the top of the bag had dried out unless it was just a pile of natural debris. I was scared at first while approaching it but relieved to find out it wasn't a dead cat. I swear all this medical stuff I've been going through has been making me crazy! =/ I hope this story made you all smile a little bit. :P HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYBODY!!! It's overcast here, and I have the heat up a little bit, am cold with a little bit of chills, hope it gets "warm" later. Oh, by the way, on top of this fiasco, John purchased 2 books of stamps yesterday and this morning asked me where they were. I swear I didn't remember him handing them to me, my memory has gotten very poor in the last month or two. I looked all over cuz he said he handed them to me yesterday, uh, he found them out in the driveway, one of the books was underneath the neighbors truck. I am just scatterbrained left and right, not that that has anything to do with a cat blog. :-/ I NEED SLEEP!!
