Smarter than the Average...Cat???

One of our cats has been mildly ill the last two weeks, which required a trip to the vet, followed by antibiotics. If you've ever attempted to give any type of pet a pill, it's not exactly a stroll down Lovely Avenue! That is, until I found the best thing ever invented...Greenies Pill Pockets.

Greenies is a French company that makes healthy cat and dog treats. They recently came out with the Pill Pockets and our cats are in love with them. They are soft, little rounds with a small hole in the center. You just pop the pill in, mold the Pill Pocket around it, and the cat will snarf it down! Wow! Unfortunately, they are not available here in "Siberia," you have to go to Wichita to get them.

The Hubster and I had a big Saturday night in the big town of Wichita. Sarah's birthday was Saturday. She decided to try something new this year, so she had her 25Th birthday, version 2.0. We got to see her new "crib," which is gorgeous. (Yeah, I know, shock of the year that Arty Girl has a cool pad!)

Exercise update: 2 workouts last week, and 5 sessions of calisthenics with hand weights.

Female in Motion Health Update

I am at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Zion, IL, tonight. I flew in last night, spent all day in the waiting room and appointments. I have a headache, my feet hurt, my burns hurt and I'm exhausted. Man, I hate it when I'm whiny. The good news is, I'm doing well. As Dr. Citrin put it, I'm one tough woman. He was shocked that I was able to travel so soon after finishing radiation. He took one look at the burns under my arm and prescribed some aloe vera gel with lidocaine and some pain meds to help me sleep.  I will start Arimidex this week, too. In the bad news department, I am not in any state of mind to write tonight. I have to be up early in the morning to catch a flight home, so I will say good night and God bless each and every one of you: for your prayers, for your support, for being you. As I promised, I will post the piece I've been working on very soon. Thanks for understanding. *** Notable Quote:  " John 14:27 (KJV) Peace I leave w...

I Can't Get No Satisfaction

Too much of a good thing is not good at all!  When I was a kid of six or eight, I had an obsession. It was a food obsession, particularly with Chicken in a Biskit crackers. It was a doomed relationship from the start, because even at that tender age, I realized the glaring spelling error. I found a box of those crackers in the cabinet one day, quietly put them under my shirt, and slipped downstairs to the family room, where I proceeded to watch Major Astro and eat the entire box . It wasn't much later when my tummy started to protest. Too much of a good thing was definitely not a good thing. After spending several hours in the bathroom that evening, I learned a valuable lesson: Even the best food doesn't taste good in reverse. Since that day, even the sight of one of those crackers makes me  slightly nauseated. I can't go near them. Seems like a lot of us are looking for something to fill in the nooks and crannies of our lives. The temporary satisfaction that an...
