Well, you've read the notes, you know why the notes are late, and now it is time for you to post until the tantrum-throwing cows come home.

I just realized today is Tuesday, so I made a topic of discussion. Check it out. Brain lapses are no fun.

Well, I breathed a big sigh of relief this morning. I was terrified on Sunday that I had seriously injured Annabelle when she attacked my printer. Her behavior on Monday made me think I'd struck her head and given her amnesia or concussion: she kept away from me, she looked as though she couldn't focus her eyes, and I spent most of yesterday weeping over my fit of anger. The curious thing was I never aimed the cane anywhere newar her head; IU aimed for te side of the filing cabinet next to her and I feared I mayhave struck her on her lower back.

Vixmom!

Oh my GAWD.

We've been through much with this house (including one (1) frozen pipe incident ... which caused me the loss of a laptop PC, but no more than that ... but I digress).

But but but...  yes, this rapidly grew into something you're not going to handle yourself. It's time to let the insurance company take over. At the same time, what a disruption to .. um, life, peace of mind, all that stuff.

DR Elmore, I have known that terrible feeling and the fear that I might have brought harm to one of the cats. There's nothing worse. Give that girl lots of love. Which of course you will do, but sometimes one has to say it anyway.

Just finished catching up.  My word, DR vixmom. Your stories are always so compelling. If costly. Glad you (and the house) survived.

Glad, also, to read that all appears to be well with Annabelle.

TOD:   Not sure; I typically don't watch action movies.

But, a question:  are James Bond films considered action films?

Blissfully in my bed asleep until 9:15 a.m.  I got 10-plus hours of sleep, and I am delirious about it.
