For my final NaBloPoMo post, I present the ‘100 Things’ list that I have honestly been composing off and on in my head for the last three years. Final purge!
I collect spoons.
Chocolate mint is my favorite flavor, but please, none of that fake green ice cream.
My first food was Cheerios.
I still have Cheerios for breakfast [...]

What a long day. Oh how I wish I didn’t have to go to work tomorrow. I was just exhausted to the point of yawning all day long. I’m sleeping at night, but the stress between Mac’s health and stupid stuff at work is wearing on me. Mac went back to the vet this afternoon [...]

Mac and I are hanging in there. She got up and ate a little bit this morning, but I still tried to syringe feed her some. Lost part of my left hand to her claw. I came home from lunch and she ate and drank again, but I still didn’t feel it was enough so [...]

I left work early and picked up Mac yesterday afternoon. Poor cat. She looked so pathetic in her carrier. The clinic had put a bandage on her right front leg where they had taken an IV out. It was orange with smiley faces. The vet joked that they thought it might improve her disposition. She [...]

I’m getting ready to head to bed after a lovely Thanksgiving day.
My mom and I spent most of the day with the Steele/Vaughn/Reinertson clan in North Liberty. We enjoyed a great Thanksgiving meal and then the Cowboys won.
This evening Mom and I watched The Blues Brothers as she’d never seen it all the way through [...]

Thanks for all the comments, emails and concern for my person. I took some pepcid (I had it for my cat) and drank some milk last night. This morning the pain is finally no longer sharp and stabbing. Now it is just discomfort. I got a doctor’s appointment for this afternoon and I’m just [...]

Saturday was ripe with blogging fodder and I need to share this before I forget it.
After the final rec show of the season, the members of the Hawkeye Marching Band were taking photos with their friends, their sections, their families, ect, before heading out to their last pre-game. It brought back memories of my not-so-long [...]
