So, here's little Muffin, and her sister Taffy, upon arriving home from North Shore Animal League in late November 1990 at an estimated six weeks old.  They're still wearing their NSAL tags, where they'd been temporarily nicknamed Peanut Butter and Jelly.


Super cute :)

DR George I strongly urge you to keep Neve as an indoor cat, especially the first 3 months.  It is after moves that people often lose their cats. 

That's what I was planning.  I could let her out into my little backyard because it's totally enclosed and has high fences.  She's 14 years old, so she's too old to jump or climb up anything.

Yes.  I would sit out there at first and read.

Annabelle behaved very well last night until some time around 3:00AM.  She must have gone climbing because she suddenly landed next to me on the mattress and scared the hell out of me.

Another great joy of having a cat ;D

Just be grateful it wasn't a fur ball.  I hate that in the middle of the night.

DR FJL, there was no Poe reference to "Annabelle Lee" in her name.  The MACC gave her the name Annabelle when they checked her in on Sept. 19.  It seems perfectly right for her, so I am not changing it.  She's much more the 1927 song "Miss Annabelle Lee" than she is a Poe character.

Friday afternoon greetings!  We have relocated to Grand Blanc, MI, and are settling into a hotel around the corner from my sister's.  She'll pick us up in about half an hour for the Friday fish fry at their golf course.

Had lunch at Park Row No. 1 in downtown Edgefield SC.

I had the barbecue sandwich which I was led to believe would be absolutely fantastic.  The side of potato salad was very good, but the barbecue wasn't anything special in the taste department.  Not wanting to be negative about it, I didn't tell anyone with whom I was dining that it seemed a bit tasteless. When I did later say something, however, they expressed surprise that I didn't use the sauce that was supposed to be with it.  No sauce was with it.   Why didn't I ask for some, they asked.  I replied that I figured the sandwich came with everything I was supposed to get with it.  Why must I "ASK"  for sauce?  Why was it not included in my plate?

Oh, well.

I went with my mom to get a flu shot this afternoon at her doctor's office.  It was to be my first Medicare/United Health Care experience.

My mom got her shot but they require me to have an appointment with the doctor to establish myself.  Happily I brought a flash drive containing my medical history with Kaiser Permanente which I gave to the nurse for the doctor's perusal.  I have an appointment Oct. 20 at 11:15 a.m.

I don't know whether this was true in Oakland or not, but my fingernails seem to grow rather fast. I trimmed them less than a week ago and they need trimming again.

Funny, but I don't recall clipping my nails but once every couple of weeks before moving here.  Could it be the water?   Or could it be that constant typing on a computer as I did at work kept my nails shorter?

You’re right, Ron. If sauce is supposed to be used, it should be served with the sandwich. As one who doesn’t like bbq sauce, I doubt I’d have liked it.

As is par for the course, I am sleeping a lot today.

As I reported last week, I am getting ready to perform a wedding for my brother Kent - his 4th - who was divorced last month.  Today my brother Dane came by and announced that he and his wife Kathy are being divorced....so there you are....some great totals for in laws:

Mike - one wife
Paula - one husband
Myrna - three husbands
Dane - two wives (probably a third in the wings)
Kent - soon to be four wives
David - one wife
Molly - two husbands

And I ain't even had one!  Seven brothers and sisters and 14 in-laws.

I was never in Grand Blanc.  I skied at Mt Holly which isn't too far from there.

At the least they should have asked you if you wanted the sauce.

I have a friend going to NY who will have time to see only one show.  She didn't mention Hamilton, was thinking she might like to see Wicked.  I loved Wicked. 

Is the current cast of Wicked good?  Does anyone recommend another show for her?
