Oh Laura, the time when you're away seems so long, and the time when you're here seems so short!

Hope you have a safe trip with no unhappy interruptions and hurry back!

[rg_girlca]

Gosh Laura, it seems like you just get here, before you have to leave again.

I hope you have a safe trip. Miss you already.

See you when you get back.

Good-bye, Laura. Think of us while you're gone and check in when you're back!

[BC_MoM]

Are you in the Navy or something like that?

Whatever it is,

Enjoy your work! Any work on a ship must be enjoyable.... for the most part!

[jazzcat]

We'll miss you!!! Stay safe and see you in 28 more days.

Love you girl! Praying for your safe return! {{{HUGS}}}

BC Mom, Laura is a cook on a boat(barge?) on the Mississippi. She works 28 days on, 28 days off.

Just thought of something, Laura, if you're leaving tomorrow, that must mean the "kids" are already gone? I can only imagine how hard that is for you to leave them every month, but knowing they're in good hands has to really put your mind at ease. I saw the thread on Samantha's baby but haven't had time to keep up with it, did her mom come pick her up?

[Laura's Babies]

Bridgett's "Mom" never showed up or even called... not even today. I am really believing she dumped her here herself and my bet she is pregnant and ready to have kittens AGAIN (3rd or 4th litter). MIke is going to try to set the trap and catch her, then keep her in a large cage he has outside until I get back... THEN, I will have only about 28 days to get her all done (vet) and find a home for her...(wish me LUCK!) IF he can catch her..

I talked to the manager and he said he has traps set all the time and if he catches her, she goes to the pound. I begged him not to do that, take her to Mike so he can keep her until I get home, then I will get her vetted and find her a home.. I HOPE!

BC, this is the boat I work on, a work boat that pushes barges. Crew of 9 to 10, I cook 3 meals a day for 28 days. Then I come home and sit on my butt and eat take out for 28 days!

BC Mom, Laura is a cook on a boat (barge?) on the Mississippi River.

Right the first time -
Cook on the BOAT - TOW BOAT - BIG Tow Boat!

Da BOAT pushes the BARGES - the Stuff rides in the Barges.

I'll go find a picture of da BOAT.

Hey, I am going to miss you too. I always look for your posts, and have been following Samantha.

Have a great 28 days and we will all be waiting right here for you when you return.

[Lizzie]

I will miss seeing your posts, and your responses to all my questions. It must be very hard to leave your cats for 4 weeks at a time but I expect you take photographs with you? I hope everything is plain sailing for you.

[Catty1]

PS - like you don't have enough to do - but could you give Mike the manager's contact info and he can touch base with him too?

hugs
safe trip!
