I got a call from Dr. Calista’s earlier today, just barely bringing myself to write about it now. Isis passed away today, she 14 years old. The vet is unsure what exactly caused Isis’ illness still as they were waiting for her to come off the IV fluids before doing a urine sample. They were [...]

Isis got sick at some point yesterday and hid herself away. I wasn’t able to find her until late in the evening. Isis had apparently been throwing up as well, although I didn’t actually find the stuff until later. Dr. Calista’s office doesn’t open until 9am on Saturdays, so I had to wait around before [...]

I got roped into going to another seminar with my mom, this time it’s one that doesn’t interest me in the least – it’s a tax seminar. *yawns* After that whole fiasco with her former employer, Mom hasn’t been interested in attending any of the tax seminars in El Paso, but since this one is [...]

Money is still pretty tight here, even though I’ve had some new sources of income coming in, most of it just goes to pay long overdue bills rather then actually building a cushion. Grocery shopping is actually kind of humorous for the cashiers at Wal-Mart. They’ll see me come up with a large bag of [...]

Just finished eating a nice yummy dinner comprised of nothing but leftovers! From right to left we have quelites (spinach and pinto beans), lentejas, green enchiladas, and rice. Yeah, it’s really late and I shouldn’t have eaten dinner this late, but I spent most of the day cleaning the house from top to bottom. Even [...]

Well, as I mentioned previously, I attended the Investools Seminar by Wealth Magazine today. It was the first day of a two-day workshop/seminar that my Mother actually dragged me to. While I will admit to being interested by the presentation at the Get Motivated Business Seminar, I just really didn’t think it was for me. [...]

Today was a long, tedious, and exhausting day. First I woke up early so I could get the girls (Isis and Denali) up to town today for their physical and interviews (a local agency is actually “hiring” cats for modeling in media). There actually weren’t that many people that responded to the ad apparently, and [...]

I got a late start today, I’ve only been awake for about four hours now in fact, and it’s because I was out late last night. I needed to get some last minute grocery items and with it being the holidays stores are going to be way crowded. Since Wal-Mart is open 24/7 logic dictated [...]

I had to force myself to go out into the horrendous weather a couple of hours ago. Believe me, even though the house isn’t that warm (on account of the pilot being out on the heater) it’s still warmer (and drier!) inside than it is outside. And once the individual room heaters get going it’ll [...]

It started raining yesterday evening and has been raining since. Oh, it’ll stop for a few hours, or slow to a drizzle, but that’s about it. On top of the rain it’s cold and windy outside. Definitely a day you don’t go outside if you don’t have to. It’s the kind of weather that results [...]
