Been busy doing some "stuff" this morning, and I have to get ready to take Poe down to Cat Clinic for a quick antibiotics shot. His urine showed signs of bacteria, which has happened before, and he's getting the injection to ward off getting a UTI.

I learned that I have to voluntarily pay more for that as opposed to giving him an oral solution or tablets at home. You absolutely cannot get an antibiotic into him otherwise. He can detect one part in a billion from a hundred miles away and there's no way of disguising it in anything.


I had the same problem with my previous cat Ebonie.  The injection was four times the cost of the pills ($60 vs. $15) , but if she's not keeping them down, what good are they? :-\

I just reported my unemployment hours to Suad, and I really like her a lot.  She's quite wonderful.

That's great!

I just watched Bad Education on HBO with Hugh Jackman and Allison Janney.....

Most entertaining story about a couple of school administrators with their fingers in the pie.....


I haven seen the movie yet but this took place about 25 miles from where I live

So, my whole family use apple, i stuff and, as Gabe says "Aunt Cill is an Android".  They've been doing a lot of Facetime, and I've always felt a bit out of the loop on that. I called my mom today and her caretaker said,"She can use my phone, why don't you facetime"   I had to admit I couldn't because I'm an android.   Anyway, I found an iPad on Best Buy on sale today so I broke down and got it.   

Then after talking to my brother, we decided to get one for mom.  She won't know how to use it, but Krista can help her and it will allow her to face time with her grands and great grands and me.   And living in the boonies, there is more of a move toward tele-medicine.  So, we'll see how it goes, but I think this could be a good thing

I am Apple and Mac-free, also.  But hopefully, it'll all work for you and your mom.

I was just talking to our neighbor friend who's father passed away.  The challenges you don't think of during these times.  She can't find any place that can take donations.  He had clothes with the tags still on them.  She only has so much storage room.

My condolences to your neighbor friend.  I'm sure that there are a lot of people now in the same situation. :-\

Roy, of Siegfried and Roy has died of the virus.   He was 74.

My parents actually got to see them perform in Vegas.  They said that their show was incredible.

Yes, Cillaliz. Roy was the one who was mauled.

If anyone's interested, ChocZero is giving away a free KF94 face mask (1 per customer) with every order.  I like their products, so I bought some and will get one free face mask.

I never had any particular feelings for the likes of Siegfried and Roy, but I did see their act with the tigers once at the Mirage in Vegas back in 1994. That’s where we were staying for one of our company’s (my day job) national sales events. In fact, I didn’t know who they were until I was informed that that was the evening’s entertainment. It was okay, but not something that floats my boat, then or now.

Some stupid woman on the news just said that because of CoVid-19, she is not going to vote for Trump, she will not vote for Biden; in fact, she may not vote at all.  Stupid, stupid woman!

The military jets have begun flying again.  Up until a couple of days ago we hadn't seen any for a long while.

I saw them when they first started in Las Vegas.  At the time, they were a part of the Hallelujah Hollywood at the original MGM Grand (before it burned).
