Hey Slick! Good to hear from you again, but I sure hope it's "only" a UTI for sweet little Speckles. :( Any news yet?

Hey Slick! Good to hear from you again, but I sure hope it's "only" a UTI for sweet little Speckles. :( Any news yet?
<fret, fret, fret>
Speckles has sent an email to her Auntie Debbie.
OK, I'm ready for a big double BM. We've got thunder and lightening and lots and lots of rain here tonight. Good thing we can all curl up by the fireplace.
Sorry you are sick Corinna. There's alot of that going around.
Mario, come here sweetheart. I have not been kissed in so long.... :eek: ;)
Oh drat! I'm still reinstalling everything and figured my email could wait 'til tomorrow, but I guess I'll do it right after MS Office gets done installing. Do you know how many MS Updates there have been in the last 3 years? :eek: Now I remember why I really don't like doing this.......I couldn't even get the settings right so things looked the same on my screen. :rolleyes:Quote:

Hey everybody! I'll take a DOTD, how is everybody? Slick how is Speckles doing. I hope the vet says the UTI is better.
Corinna, hope you are feeling better.
I have been cleaning on the new house all day. It won't be long and we will be moving in! We had the carpet laid today, the power and heat is on too. Nope won't be long at all!
Mario, what are you doing, going around kissing on all these ladies!
Willie :)
G'day all, :)
For a moment there I thought we were going to have a seventies flashback. :D
Good to see you again Slick.
Hope you did alright in the Cup Michelle. :) (Me, eyepopper 14th :( , Carole, diva 1st :rolleyes: )
Guess I might just settle down to some good port and some expresso coffee, maybe a little dark chocolate too. ;)
Biiiig stretch and a yawn blowing in from the East Coast this morning. I'll save my drink order for later EXCEPT I must click glasses with my buddy Slick (I'll send you a p.m. later) but now it's time for a BM *hee hee*. My heart strings are humming for Sue, yes we can just about all feel the pain of loss. In keeping with the "Keep It Simple Stupid" theme (yes Trev, I was thinking about musicians with face makeup too) let's just have some comfort food for later. You know me, always with the food :rolleyes: A nice skillet of SOS simmering for whenever anyone is awake enough. I'll spoon it over homemade toast and serve with a side of baked apples and some thick sliced bacon. MARIO, are you awake? Can you fetch some oranges from the trees out back (he's so handy to send up the trees) and we'll have some fresh OJ. YUM! Good morning all :) Let's get the coffee brewing also....
More like a comatose kitty condo. Hey Davidp, there's still time, ya know. Lots of neighborhood strays would KILL for a place like that, complete with CD system, plush sleeping arrangements and shelter from the elements. Whatdaya say????Quote:
a comatose lawn ornament
Good morning everyone! I've made a double batch of fresh Baileys so help yourself. I've got a real hankering for a big 'ol southern breakfast...you know, biscuits and gravy and the works. Oh Laurie, how about some of your wonderful crab cakes??? Anyone up for it?? It's another dark and dreary day up here and Mr. Weatherman says it will continue for the next week. Yup, our Wet Coast weather has arrived.
Speckles is doing OK but as my friend ChrisH says....let's pray for poop! If none show up in the next 24 hours, she's off to the whitecoats for an x-ray. If that doesn't show anything she gets a "cat scan"! LOLOLOL :D
Aw Mario, thanks for the kisses...now, can someone please pass me a tissue to wipe all this cherry jooze off my mouth?
Here's a hanky Slick.. not a Kleenex but only the most exquisite Irish Linen hanky for you. Thanks for the Bailey's - perfect timing - coffee's ready. I'll save some crab meat especially for Speckles for when he's feeling ship shape again. Are those some glowing coals left in the fireplace? Let's stoke up the fire and warm up the place.... some nice smelling apple wood would be nice :cool: I hate to rub it in but expecting upper 60's/low 70's and sunny in the mid-Atlantice over the next few days - I love it :cool:
Wow, you still have 60's and 70's? Lucky you! I'll go out back and bring in a load of wood.

Wow, does that mean I have to raise my pinkie??? LOL :D
I know someone who is having a birthday on Sunday but I'm not telling!!!
**slaps hand over mouth** **snicker** **snort**
Ummm........think I'll take a pass on the SOS, Laurie. ;) :D :p But all that good ol' comfort food that Slick mentined sounds just yummy! I made the absolute BEST pancakes last weekend while we were camping. On a griddle over that campfire....well....almost...they were really made on our grill, but they get the same flavor as if they were over the fire. Light fluffy pancakes smothered in butter with just a dash of syrup. Mmmmm.....M! Oh, and top it off with coffee and some of Slick's Baileys? Oh my god, I believe I'm in heaven!Quote:

It's a human stool softener that you can give to cats.....once every other day I believe it was. He did mention that cats with failing kidneys do start having a harder time doing the ol' #2, so this might be something you want to ask the vet if you end up having to take her in. I also don't know if you even have Colace in Canada and I wouldn't recommend trying any other human product without approval from the vet.
Anyway, on with the day! :D
Oh, and it's supposed to be around 72 here today! I think they said that's 20 - 25 degrees warmer than average! Lucky Terry is spending a few nights at the motorhome so he should really be able to take advantage of the weather when he's done with work this afternoon. :)
Good morning alll I think I need a HBR thoday it's been quite the day already. 22yr old son tells me on our late night walk He has a DATE on friday?After almost fainting , It's a cute little gal he works with (first date ever for him) This morning he and his buddy announce they are getting an apartment. He's moving out in the next couple weeks. (torn about it) This is on top of the doctors definate dyagnocis (sp) that I am to be a grannie from the other child. Way to much excitment for my heart. the only thing left would be for hubby to pack in a boxer puppy. (that won't happen. )
wow, are we all over the place on this Thursday or what?
Corrina,
LOL, I can see where you would pick up a newspaper to get some OTHER kind of news. :eek:
HBR, Done!
T&P,
Cakes and coffee and Bailey's??
DONE!
Tray,
One DOTD.....and Mario has kissed me too!!!
DONE!
Slick,
Biscuits and gravy we get that in the cafe but I show up at 9, by that time one or the other is done......watch out with that pinky, you'll put someone's eye out with it.
Hey watch out with those 'cat scan' jokes!! ;)
Laurie
Thank
thanks for all your work in the kitchen!
Moosmom,
What a great idea...... :eek: But what happens if David needs a trade in? :eek:
Oggy,
OH, oh! Espresso is out of my bartending range. :rolleyes: I'll give it a try but.....Chocolate that I can do! DONE? :eek:
.
David,

Corrina,
A DLC for you! DONE!
Cap't.

:D Well, if the "cats can" the cats will!!!
Lunchtime here and it's chilly. I would love a big steaming bowl of chicken noodle soup with some garlic bread! When I was a kid, I used to suck in the noodles....well, actually, I still do! :o :D OK Mario, you can have a noodle. Where is Gini??? Sheesh, she tells me to haul my butt back to Thursdays and she's no where to be seen! Maybe she's got men traipsing through her house again.....and she didn't invite me! :( :D :D
Well, I'm placing my order with the bartender in advance. I have to put on the funny green suit tomorrow (AKA BDU's) and go to drill for four days. I'm the NCOIC of a target range over the weekend, and if I get through this intact I'm going to need a large irish coffee.......something on the order of a quart or so.
( I'm bringing my camera to the target range with me, so on the odd chance that someone wants pics let me know)
