After a nice day in Barcelona with friends I am back on the ship sampling 2 different single malt scotches deciding which I prefer.  I asked for peanuts and we were given mixed nuts that contained Brazil nuts.  Brazil nuts are worse than hazel nuts for me.  I finally have peanuts, however,  they arrived too late as I am a bit tipsy.  I cannot decide which scotch I prefer so I keep sampling them ;D

Back from the vet with our Poe, who was put through the wringer this morning. 

He's resting now but we'll be keeping an eye on him through the day because he's recovering from not only the "excitement" of the carrier and the car and the place and the handling, but also sedation which was the only way they could do the bloodwork and finish checking him out more thoroughly.

We'll have results tomorrow or Wednesday, but we already found a shocking degree of dental disease which will necessitate some more extractions (he's had a number of them over the years).  Poor guy.  These cats really know how to hide stuff from us.

I didn't follow the case closely at the time, so the little I remember about it is from stories I read or saw on TV well after the fact.  I agree with those who believe SOMEBODY in that family, or someone very close to them, has blood on their hands. 

I also am one who is fairly horrified at the kind of life they put the girl through in the first place.  That stuff just reeks of obscenity to me.  So I am not predisposed in a kind way toward the parents from the get go.

Lately, I wake up after sleeping 6 - 6-1/2 hours.  No matter how much I try to go back to sleep, my mind won't let me.

Yet, once I'm up, I'm sluggish for a while.

Here I sit in my office.  If I were to close my eyes for three minutes, I'd sleep soundly until a noise awakened me.

Monday afternoon greetings!  We were up and outta here early to meet my sister and her husband for breakfast.  By 10am they were on their way home to Michigan, Richard was doing errands, and I was at the grocery store.  He and I are both home now for a day of puttering.

I'm up, I'm up - a bit over eight hours of sleep - but I was up six or seven times during the night.

Today is DD Leo's 1st birthday.  It's been a rather interesting year.  I hope he takes the next year to calm down a bit.  But we love him anyway!

Travel vibes for DR JOHN G.

Glad to hear DR TCB is feeling better.

DR GEORGE if you don't have to have the latest and greatest version, you can sometimes get an older version of Office/Suite for a nice price on Amazon....or Ebay.  These are all still in the package with the activation codes provided.

That's true.  I just need to make sure that it works with Windows 10.  I haven't had it for very long, so I don't know that much about it. :-\

My day is over.  Joshie and I went through the inconsistancies in the brass mutes for all of Act One, and Act Two to "Goona  Goona Lagoon."  Tomorrow, we'll finish up.
