Grumpycat and Scaredycat
I'm feeling really cranky tonight... must be PMS. The cats have been being little pains in the rump lately because they're upset about the move and all the people coming and going to get ready fo...
Hassles with the move
Our move has been postponed a week... sigh. Our friend packed half our stuff for us on Saturday (we gave him $100 and he sure earned it, if only for the dozen trips he made downstairs to the dump...
Vet update
Okay... looks like Scouty will be fine. We took her to the vet this morning. Yes it is an abscess, and a doozy of one. But she had her butt shaved, an antibiotic shot and something for her fever....
So stressed tonight
Sooooooooooo stressed tonight... Scouty's got an abscess on the base of her tail. Somebody must have bit her and her fur's so thick I didn't know anything was wrong until she started leaving icky...

Among the missing
I've been going through my friends list on the open diary and trying to reconcile it with my much shorter list here while I can still open the site and check my list. A lot of people have kept th...
Getting ready to move
We're moving house on Feb 15... so I'm busy trying to do as much as I can to get ready in advance. I sorted a bunch of stuff yesterday, and last night my wrists were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sore I couldn...
I guess I'm stuck with Prosebox... bye bye OD
It (prose box) was meant to be an emergency backup... I never thought that the Open Diary would actually go away for good. I've had other 'emergency backup' diaries that have come and gone and t...
Christmas money
It's six o'clock in the morning and I'd much rather still be asleep, but the cats are being little pains in the RUMP. They keep squabbling with each other and the fur is flying. I got up and let ...
Not again...
Coughing, snuffling, and wheezing AGAIN today... there was a woman coughing her lungs out at church on Sunday. I was on the far side of the church from her... I'd better not have caught her cold!...
Farewell Rick...
I just loaded up facebook to check on progress in ODland (none) and found a note that Rick (formerly known as Dave Dog) passed away last weekend... Rick was a very special guy, and if you didn't ...
Feeling really blah today...
Am I just a big faker? Do I make too much fuss about nothing? Maybe I just WANT to be sick so I don't have to do anything... Maybe I'm just lazy... Maybe I just need to suck it up and try harder ...
Feeling better
I know nobody's reading this thing... but I guess that's okay. I wish they'd fix the open diary but I've got a feeling it's gone for good now. :( I'm in a good mood today anyway - my asthma and m...
So-so Saturday
I'm still grumpy... not being well does that. And the open diary is still totally unavailable. Somebody made an entry here that said they were moving servers but it was only SUPPOSED to take a da...
Grouchy
I woke up feeling very tired and grouchy and grumpy today... AND itchy and sniffly... my nose is running like a tap today. I'm 95% sure that I've got PMS, and it'll be that time of the month agai...
December is going to be action-packed
December is going to be a very busy month for us this year... it's going to be hard on me, but it's really nice to have plans that don't involve 'sit at home and mope because nobody loves me (exc...
Thanksgiving Day Gratefuls
It's Thanksgiving... am I grateful? I guess I am... I'm super grateful that the asthma attack I had last night and this morning was treatable at home and I didn't have to spend Thanksgiving morni...
Medication musings
I haven't been feeling well since Thursday and it was getting me down... It's not as if we were going to starve to death for want of a Thanksgiving turkey - I bought a month's worth of bulk meat ...
A whole lot of nothing... and a little turkey talk
It was 1.30 in the morning on Thursday night before either of us was able to get to sleep, and then we had a disturbed night, so it's REALLY thrown my sleep pattern off. Neither of us has been fe...
Catching Fire (a nice night out)
Just got back from seeing a double feature - the Hunger Games followed by Catching Fire. Pretty cool! Go see it... they didn't over-sanitise it, but they didn't overly dwell on the gore either. T...
Massage report
UPDATE - the massage hurt. Quite a bit. But I'm telling myself it was a 'good' hurt... I know it has to involve pain to loosen up my incredibly tight muscles. She didn't get to my right shoulder ...
x-post
This thing seems to be working again today after some very erratic loading, so it's time to update. Nothing terribly exciting happening here right now. John spent the weekend working on our frien...
Brrrrrrrrrrrr...
It's turned COLD here! I had to dig out my long pants before John took me to get groceries last night, and then I put the quilt on the bed because I didn't think the fleece blanky would be enough...
PMS depression
I must be premenstrual today, because I feel like a depressed waste of space... my anxiety's been riding high lately too. John took me to yoga yesterday because it was Veteran's Day and the banks...
Ender's Game
We didn't go to church today. John offered to take me, but he wanted to go see Ender's Game and I can't do church AND a movie in one day... it's got to be either/or, and I wanted to do something ...
Book Description
I wasn’t eager to bail on it. I’ve consistently kept at least one diary over on the open diary site for the last 13 years. But since they’ve sadly abandoned it and they can’t make the site work for more than an hour at a time, it was either time to give up, give in, or switch… if anybody has any tips for how to extract 13 years worth of diary from there and bring it here, I’d love to hear them. If I can figure it out, saving some of my past would be nice… otherwise I’ll have to start fresh, so welcome! I’m female, 42, happily married for the last nine years come December, and I live in Florida with my husband John and our five cats. My health is a bit of a trainwreck the last few years and DH has problems too, but aside from that we live a very ordinary life. I do the best I can each day…
