Meow Plague

We are still a bit under the weather kittywise. I had to take Henri to the vet this morning. It is like having kids. If one of them gets it, you can be sure the others will too.

I was so frustrated last night I told B I wanted to get rid of all of them. It was my anger and fear talking though. There was kitty barf everywhere...

I am struggling with my job too. I love that they think I am capable enough to handle being a branch manager. But I am so much happier being a simple children's librarian. I am not sure what to do.

It has just been stress upon stress. B and I are looking at taking up dancing again. We haven't for the last couple of months. We both need a stress outlet. He is so wonderfully supportive.

I love him.

Good night and stop, breathe and reboot (what I tell the customers when their computer freezes)

Prayer for a Kitty

: ) Somehow both Dad and I are talking about prayer today.

I had to just drop off one of my kitties with the emergency vet tonight. She was getting sick and began to drool. I have never seen a cat drool before. They have given her anti vomiting medicine and a pain killer along with fluids. I am not sure what is wrong with her but am hoping it is just something she ate that upset her stomach. I am taking her to my regular vet tomorrow to get some tests run.

B and I had just been talking about her last night too. It is Hazel. She is named after my great aunt and a character in one of my favorite books Watership Down. Aunt Hazel was a really wonderful person who loved cats. She couldn't have any where she lived so she had a collection of porcelin ones. I remember giving her a mug that had a cat as a handle with its head sitting on the rim peeking over it to look at the fish painted in the bottom.

I had intended to save Hazel for when I have a girl child but I got the cat first. I made B promise not to tell our kids about the cat being named it first. I have been trying to come up with another name for the cat just in case.

I am a kitty mom though. I found myself yelling at other drivers to move faster so I could get her to the emergency vet. Dear God, please watch over her tonight and keep her safe. Please heal whatever is wrong with her and bring her safe home tomorrow.

Good night and Amen.

Back for now..

The pool is fixed. We are back open for business.

But now they are thinking of making me a floating library. It would mean I would be working at the branch a couple days a week and at another library a couple of days a week.

I like and don't like the idea. I love the idea of having a couple of days off from running the branch though. I feel like that I will be playing catchup with branch duties for the times that I am gone though.

In other news, I am feeling better. My voice is mostly back. Though right now I am channeling Barry White...My darling, I can't get enough of your love, baby... My voice is very low right now but at least it is back. I was missing it over the weekend.

Poor B... he was really good about taking care of me. He got my grocery list of OJ, drinks and lots of soup. The streaming Netflix came in handy too. I am watching the Six Wives of Henry the Eighth again : )

I am never quite sure which one I feel sorriest for.

Good day and I remain your faithful servant.
