So, last night, around 1 or 2, my back hurt. I have a little plastic tub where I have various creams and such. There’s one bottle in there that I bought, noticed that the last ingredient was 0.25% Capsaicin, and have avoided ever since. See, I had to go to the...What’s Left
What I have left from my best friend for the last 14 years: 1 box of cat ashes 1 cat tooth, pulled by the vet tech on January 8. 5 x-rays: 3 dental, 2 full-body Photos Memories It’s more than I have for my other dead kitties, but it’s not...Hmmmmm.

I have so many boxes. The cats have an exciting box playground. I feel like I’m making no progress at all, but I’m gradually clearing a path. Of course, what I’m making no progress on is writing. Sigh! I have plans, but there is almost no butt in...Subscribe
