I'm sure you will do well with your interview. It is good that you can still work. I have been on permanent disability for about 4 years now, and miss being in the work force and interacting with fellow employees and customers. I just checked on mom and family and they are all laid back and everyone has a full tummy. I even had 2 meals today, which is unusual for me, since I tend to forget to eat when Jim is away and I have no one to cook for. Couldn't quite finish dinner (my stomach has probably shrunk to the size of a lemon now, lol), but stuck it in the fridge for later. Kinda of sad in a way, but when I gound out he was not going to be able to come home until next week, a wave of relief went over me - no one to wait on, and I can do whatever, whenever I want. I just haven't missed him that much this time, but I know by the time he gets back, I will be glad to see him. If I don't talk to you before your interview - good luck! - and stay calm, I'm sure everything will go smoothly. Have a restful night, and talk to you soon, I don't think I will have trouble sleeping after almost no sleep last night. lol. ((hugs))

Hope you are doing well too. Have definitely had sleep issues, espcially last night. . .Lizzie, the matriarch of the stray cats (has been here almost 15 years, and definitely preggars. .. has been crying at the front and back door for almost 2 days - she was looking like a watermelon ready to pop. I gave in last night and let her in the enclosed front porch and made a little nest for her. Went to check on her at 11 - before I went to bed - and she was in the kitten making process. I stayed with her and petted her and helped as much as I could, although she is an old pro at this, and she started resting and nursing afte 3 came out -was almost 4:30. Woke up this morning at 9, and went to check on her, and there were 2 more! A grand total of 5! The old girl is getting too old for all this, but she handles it well, and I am way to strapped for cash to have her neutered. . .3 of the inside cats are neutered except for one, and she is so tiny, I hate to think of them cutting on her, so I have to listen to her talking to me about twice a month when she goes into heat. Anyway mama and babies are doing fine, and the fact that I was there to handle them at birth, and able to pick them up when I want will make it easy to find good homes for them - and I D0 interview the prospective adoptees before I let any of them go, and always say, if one of the other of you don't like each other, then Please bring them back. We have 13 stray cats here now, that uncaring people have just dumped, and I am too soft-hearted not to love and feed them all. Well! I certainly rambled! Been alone since last Friday - bf went out of town, and I am talking to anything that moves! lol. Thanks for contacting me, hope you stay well and happy, and keep in touch. {{hugs}}

Haven't heard from you in some time, just wondering how you were doing? Turned cold here last couple of days, and gas fireplace has pilot lite turned off (Jim is out of town, and blondie can't figure out how to turn it back on. lol), and the wood is all gone from the woodshed - after All, a week ago I was in Shorts! Have and electric heater, and 3 cats who snuggle at various times, and have been staying inside which I hate. Had trouble sleeping last night again. Maybe got 5 hours sleep instead of my usual 13. lol. Have you been okay? Please keep in touch, I value my friends. ((hug))
