I am beyond thrilled that my pretty girl is back home with me. The last few days have been amazing and I'm trying not to pinch myself - it feels as though this is so wonderful and amazing that it can't be true. And, the fact that Madeline (my dog) and Clara Belle are more than getting along...

I am someone who needs to drink a lot of water. Or, really, anything. As many of you know, I am a diabetic. I also have an eating disorder and that has made getting in the food and fluids that I need difficult. And, recently, I have been nursing a relapse instead of recovery. I am going to begin...

Sometimes, I feel as though I don't deserve to come back to this site. But, I miss you all and I need a place where I feel safe. And, after all this time, this is still my "home." You may notice that I have a new username. I had some issues with family locating me on the web. It was...

Well, if  you've read my most recent novel, um, thread , you would know that I am adopting a cat and hoping to bring her home today. I am feeling a mix of emotions as this was a difficult decision to make. But, now that she will be coming home, she is going to need a new name for her new life...

Well, it has been a long time since I posted or even visited TCS. I'm not sure where to even begin, but so much has happened and it's resulted in my not wanting to be here. It was no ones fault, but it was painful to even think about this site. And, even now, I am afraid of being judged harshly...

I guess I should admit that I am a bit nervous about starting this post . Let me begin by stating that my cats are as far from normal as could ever be possible. They've never been easy keepers. But, I love them and am willing to do whatever is necessary for them to be as happy and healthy as...

I can't believe it has been so long since I've last posted. In fact, when I went to sign up for Secret Santa, I realized that I couldn't due to the fact that I had posted so little this year. Suffice it to say I was disappointed. But, it was just the push I needed in order to log in and post an...

Some of you may know that I struggle with an eating disorder. Some of you may also have noticed that I have been MIA as of late. Well, that is because I entered a partial hospitalization program for my eating disorder in early April. I was in the program for 8 weeks before they decided to step...

Well, today I got the Apple iPhone 4S. I have Verizon and was previously using the Droid Razr, but was not a fan. It was 4G LTE and that was a plus, but the phone itself wasn't what I had expected it to be. However, for what I paid, I was not about to pay out of pocket for a new phone. But...

I've been thinking about a post like this for a long time now. I've mentioned before that I am diabetic and that I also suffer from an eating disorder (which I'm "technically" in recovery from). Well, I am having a difficult time as I recently gained weight due to my diabetes as well as a...

I woke up this morning to an empty bed. Almost always, I wake up to my jack russell/rat terrier cross snuggling against me under the covers. And, even when I called for her this morning, she did not appear. So, I ran downstairs to check in on her and she was laying on the sofa. She made no...

I feel like it's always ages between my posts. Sigh. Such is that of a busy life. Since there's been so many people updating on what's been going on in their lives, I figured I'd jump in an give a bit of an update as well. I've not been around nearly as much as I'd like. So, I am just trying to...

Apparently, Guinness does not appreciate being woken up. 'Nuff said . To be fair, it's actually the flash that is making him appear angry. He is tremendously sweet and was just snuggling under the covers of my down alternative comforter when I decided to snap this pic. Unfortunately, he...

I have good news and bad news. I brought Guinness in to work with me today. I wanted the vet to take a look at him since I just adopted him from the shelter. And, he also had a free exam coming to him. He had been doing alright at home. As I've mentioned before, he has spent the majority of his...

So, I think I've posted enough that most everyone should know by now that I adopted a new cat yesterday. He is 8.5 months old, so is truly a kitten yet. He's also a DLH black with a white bib. In short, he's precious. And, despite his being very shy and uncertain of his surroundings, I am in...

I adopted my new kitty yesterday. He is an 8.5 month old DLH black male with some white on his chest. And, while I'm no stranger to cats or even adopting, I am still a nervous wreck. Just to clarify, my new cat will be going to the vet tomorrow. I'm taking him with me to work and I'll have one...

This may be a question that has been asked and answered before, but I've been trying to figure this out all morning and I am just shy of being frustrated enough to say forget it. But, I deleted my current avatar and would love to put my new kitty's pic in its place. So, can anyone help me out...

I won't even bore you by typing a lot of nonsense first. I know what's important here -- kitty pictures! This is my new cat's first photo. Here is my handsome boy: The picture is not the best quality. Nor does it show off his personality. But, he is still very frightened and is in quarantine...

Well, today has been quite the interesting day. I was off from work so I was able to sleep in this morning. It was so nice not to have to set my alarm clock last night! After catching up on some much-needed sleep, I logged on to Facebook and found myself catching up on the happenings in my...

I figured this would be a fun topic. I think we've done this every year and I know I'm always interested in finding out what others have received this holiday season. So...that being said...what did you get this year for the holidays? I was very surprised (and grateful!) by the generosity of...
