Wow, that is a lot of ping pong balls.

The Christmas we were 19, and very poor, all I wanted for Christmas was a small box of ping balls for the cats.  On Christmas Eve I insisted Keith stop so we could buy some.  Once he saw how much the cats loved playing with them he was glad I insisted.

Ping pong balls are also one of my best Christmas gifts.

We finished the painting and trim in the living room and hallway today....it looks very different.  I think I like it.

We used Valspar Contractor's Cape Cod Gray and Ceiling White.....

We almost lost Rex one year when he was sick. We went to the vet every other day for about two or three weeks. It wasn't until I saw a different vet in a branch office who gave him one of the Big Guns antibiotics that he began to get better. I paid a ton of money to try all the Clavamox-type drugs. I was glad I got a different vet to look at him.

Thursday morning greetings...

Here’s some cheery news. Astrologers predict this will be the worst day of the year.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/nation-now/2017/12/20/winter-solstice-worst-day-2017-astrologers/970249001/

Well, it could be worse, but Richard is now in Day 2 of a stomach bug that has pretty much flattened him.

~~~Feel Better Quickly Vibes for Richard!!~~~

Ditto, DR Ginny!

There's something in the basement that terrifies Annabelle, ghosts, I suspect, perhaps ghosts of dead cats since the super who was here in 1980 when I moved in was feeding a large colony of feral cats in the 82nd Street-Amsterdam Avenue corner and keeping them in the basement.  On humid and rainy days, the whole basement reeks of cat piss.

So, I took Annabelle with me while I put more laundry into the washers and broke down the Amazon cartons.  She hung by the elevator and wailed, then she started investigating the hall.  when I broke down the cartons, I carried her into the laundry room and she explored while I waited for the spin cycles to finish.  As soon as the washers were running, I grabbed her and we hightailed it to the third floor.  She will not be going down there again, but as long as she wants to explore the building, it's going to be with me.

Thank you, DRs Jane, George, Elmore, John G, KevinH, and FJL for the vibes for Richard.  He felt well enough to carry in the huge load of groceries I just brought home.  The good news is that we no longer have to go to Barnes and Noble to finish up our Christmas shopping because I found everything I needed at Kroger.  The bad news is I forgot one very important stocking stuffer for Rob, but we can get that at the gas station market around the corner.  No more Krogering for me until after Christmas.

I am, too.  If you hadn’t, opening the package I sent you would have been very painful.

I've been so frustrated the past two days, I do believe I meant what what I posted before we saw the vet.  While I was waiting for the bus with him, I couldn't imagine giving him away or leaving him to a shelter where they might euthanize him.  I love that kitten.  He makes me laugh.  Losing him or Annabelle, who is my heart and soul, are too painful to conceive.

I slept very well last night, around nine hours, and really needed it. Between the root canal on Tuesday and a poor night I was wiped out. I did my pre-Christmas food shopping today. Neither store was crowded (!) and even traffic wasn't bad. Very nice!

It's a beautiful day here, low 60s and clear blue skies. We've had some wind, bad for the firefighters, but it clears the air for those of us not near the fires.
