I have a new laptop.  I decided to go with a MacBook, since I was tired of Microsoft and all the virus issues.  I know nothing (or as close to nothing as humanly possible) about things Apple.  Cleo decided to walk across the keyboard, and my desktop resolution (?) or size has changed, and I...

Last night, I upgraded to Adobe X to download a PDF file (my sister's coronor's report.) This morning I got a window to upgrade to Adobe Flash player, but (stupid me...still was waiting for the coffee to brew) I checked the "never install" box to close it instead of just "don't install'. I...

My only sister died 6 weeks ago, and even though the autopsy is still pending, I believe that she most likely took her own life. She had battled severe depression and alcoholism for several years. My mother went with me to San Diego to take care of my sister's estate, but my father was too ill...

I found a spot where Lola peed on the spare bed (I've been smelling urine for a while since she was diagnosed with a UTI.) I pulled off the comforter and blankets, sheets and mattress pad...in the process of washing them all...quite a few washer loads there. I pitched the electric...

I'm sorry I've been so scarce around here. I've been very worried about my sister, who lives in San Diego. I'm sure many of you remember that I've mentioned that she has been unemployed for a couple of years now...and that she struggles with alcohol and substance abuse issues. I've been...

I was on call tonight until 11pm, so I missed my regular bedtime two hours ago. I'm back on call at 6:30 am for a full 24 hours...and I can't get tpo sleep now. If this keeps up, it'll be a l-o-n-g day tomorrow...

This is why I gave up quilting.... W-A-Y too much help!!! I'm trying to make a baby quilt for a friend....but Maggie and Lola won't let me lay the blocks out on the living room floor to decide on a pattern.

A very dear friend made a beautiful crystal and sterling Salvation bracelet for me, not long before she died. (from primary peritoneal cancer...which is nearly indistinguishable from ovarian cancer.) I wear it all the time (it keeps me grounded), and I get many compliments on it. I would like...

I have no idea what's going on anymore. I just tried to copy/paste a website address into a reply, and my copy/paste function isn't working. Crtl/C doesn't work either. It won't work in Internet Explorer, Word, or in Outlook Express. I tried going into Tools-Internet...

My mom went to the doctor today because she's been having intractable back pain. He took an x-ray, and noticed that she's got some significant arthritis, etc. in her back. He also thinks she has a fairly large abdominal aortic aneurysm. He's sending her for further testing. Her mother died...

I remember this from a couple of years ago. Be forewarned....this game is addictive! http://www.members.shaw.ca/gf3/circle-the-cat.html

Whew! I'm $700 poorer, but all three girls went in today for their yearly exams. Three complete senior panels, three rabies vaccinations, Cleo had her anal glands expressed, and Lola had a cystocentesis and her nails trimmed (she won't let me touch her nails!) I have to admit, I've been a bit...

My mom's sister has started chemo for ovarian cancer. Her original surgery was 2 years ago, so I know that she's already been living on borrowed time. If you could take a moment to say a prayer for my Aunt Julie, in Tulsa, I'd really appreciate it. She's a wonderful lady, and I just don't...

I got this in an e-mail today, and it scared the bejeebers outta me. I want to share this with as many people as I can. I really didn't know this! http://www.cbs.com/cbs_evening_news/...page&play=true

Cleo walked on my keyboard about an hour ago, and now I'm having issues that I can't figure out how to fix. All of a sudden, when I click on a link, a new browser window opens (instead of just going to the link in the same window.) My scroll roller on my mouse will jump back and forth between...

My little Maggie May is 9 years old today! We had a snuggly nap together this morning, and I have a Fancy Feast Appetizer for her this evening. Happy Birthday sweetie!

Good morning! Today is sort of bittersweet to me. It will be my last Question Of The Day. My work schedule is changing and I will no longer have Wednesday off. We are starting up a new Bariatric Surgery program where I work (I'm the General Surgery Coordinator) and the new surgeon has...

Good morning! It's a nice and sunny day in Michigan! I hope to get outside and work in the garden this afternoon. Here's today's Question Of The Day! Do you have a favorite author? My favorite author is Lee Child. He writes mystery/thriller type books. I actually joined his website so I...

Good morning! It's raining cats and dogs today, which brings me right into today's Question Of The Day.... Do you carry an umbrella when it rains? What color is it? I have several umbrellas....the obligatory black one, a purple one, and my favorite.....a tiny fold-up purse sized one that's...

My sister just called me. She said her cat came running in from the garage meowing, and her blinds were rattling. They had a 6.9 magnitude earthquake in Baja California.
