Right now I'm STARVING but I don't know what to make for dinner. I've been walking around and thinking about itfor an hour -- nothing appeals to me, though I'm hungry.

RN Yankee, I hate it when that happens! I end up eating everything, trying to figure out what I was hungry for!

RN I was going through that around lunch time today Yank. Day before grocery shopping there isn't much in the house that's quick and easy to make for one.

RN, thank God for mocha's usual friday post of TGIF. it's the only way i can tell what day it is!!

last night we had a blast at our friend's restaurant. the man had surgery for a detached retina 10 days ago, so he wasn't cooking, his son was. so we picked up the man to take him to his own restaurant for dinner! as the diners left, the wife was able to spend some time with us. after the restaurant closed at 9:00, we sat with our friends until 11:30. got up at 6:00 because dh had to take the man to his eye doctor in fresno. dh ran out to get coffee before picking up our friend and realized he didn't have his wallet. i raced back to the restaurant, which is a great hole in the wall place, and being a hole in the wall place is in a bad area of town with the bus station and a lot of homeless people. (there is a storage unit across from the restaurant and people are living in it! the police came by last night and shined their spotlight in the open storage unit. the people hid behind their belongings. once the police car moved on, they shut the door down to about 4 inches off the ground. i was partly horrified that people live in a storage unit and partly glad they aren't totally on the street. the restaurant owner said the people will come over and ask to do odd jobs, such as weeding, and he'll make them a couple of super burritos.)
well, no wallet. i was frantically trying to think of what all cards we would have to cancel, etc.
i came into the computer room to start working on it and here was dh's wallet, sitting right where he obviously put it last night. maybe we shouldn't have had 3 bottles of wine between the 4 of us!

well, we just need to dismantle the tv and accessories and the computer, monitor and printer.
one desk chair and we're off like a dirty shirt...

we are thinking we will leave tomorrow morning rather than late today. i don't want to hit stockton and sacramento weekend traffic with the fully-loaded motorhome. it looks like a giant suitcase where someone doesn't know how to pack!:-)

we are also trying to figure out how to get wild, outdoor cat up to new house. i am afraid he will run away or be eaten by a mountain lion up there, but we can't just leave him here. this is the only home he's known for 12 years...
i don't want him to just roam the motorhome, especially since i'll have kendall in it, but i dread hearing him howl and scratch to get out of a small cat carrier for 5 or 6 hours. how do you drug a cat? i don't want to kill him, but i wish there was something i could give him to make him sleep for the ride. any suggestions?

dd is having a great time in boston. ds called when we were at the restaurant. gf is reading all his emails and listening when he is on the phone, so he tries to call me when he is out studying. yes, he has to leave the apartment to study. gf does not like the music he listens to while using the computer in the bedroom. when he moves to the kitchen table to study, she tells him, "i don't even want you in the apartment". hello, we are paying 710 bucks a month, the male roommate is paying 585 and gf is paying the cable and electric--usually under 200 dollars total a month.
and ds can't be anywhere in 1,100 sf because he's in her 'space'. aaargh! i will be glad when this relationship is over. i think son is going to have to tell her he is quitting school and moving home permanently and then move back to san diego in a couple of months without telling her. i have no idea how she will take it when he tells her she needs to move when the lease is up, or if she'll stay with her sis in san diego or go home to texas. she gives off stalker vibes. if he lives far enough from his old place, he shouldn't run into her, especially as she doesn't drive.

the only good thing i can see about this relationship is that my son will learn to take his time and not jump into something. it has also taught him patience. hopefully, he won't get evicted before his lease ends in a month; gf has taking to screaming fits and slamming doors.

this stuff with my son has really added to my already-stressful moving experience! i find myself taking several deep breaths to try and calm myself!

RN: Tabby pick up a live trap from the SPCA/Pound, (I think you can buy them at any outdoorsy type store, too).

Anyway, bait it with a hotdog or something, and it will catch that cat, take him with you, he will hang around the house near the smells he is accustomed to. Cat's are smart, we've only lost one over the years to a predator, and that's because he was a dumb cat.

RN, we won't have any trouble catching our cat, but confining him for the ride is going to test all our strengths! i told dh he has to take him in the suburban...maybe strap his carrier to the luggage rack on top! lol dh has a hearing problem, but i don't think it's that bad...
even without the cat, i do not want to drive the suburban. it sounds like vespers full-time. dh put my dad's old grandfather clock in, lying down. he removed the pendulum and wrapped the long hangy things (where is my brain today?!), but you can hear it playing what sounds like church bells non-stop. not real loud, just there. my head would be ringing. dh says he can't hear it at all.
strange about that hearing loss. if i ask him to do something, he's deaf as a stone, but if i mutter under my breath something even slightly negative about him, his ears perk right up. sheesh!

i wonder why we get 'screwed' sometimes as both the buyer and the seller? when we bought, the people were total jerks, only gave us 30 days to come up with money, told us they had another buyer so we could back out because 'the other buyers' did not want seller to fix anything, blah blah. so we had to agree they didn't have to fix anything. and they were probably just wanting us to back out, so they could ask more for the house. i don't think there was any other real person out there, but when someone calls your bluff, you sometimes have to let them...
so we have spent money and time fixing things they should have had to....

as sellers, the buyers wanted every last thing checked out and re-checked out and receipts and pictures for all repairs we did. they also had a contract saying we'd pay "up to 10k" in "NON-recurring closing costs". today, after already asking for an extra 3-5 days before closing (and we have to leave on the water and pay for it because they can't get the water in their name until they have their deed in hand, while i want to say, "screw you, nothing's been easy for us, either. handle your own damn water problem.")
well, today we have to sign an amendment stating "non-recurring AND recurring costs", so they can get the full 10k by adding in other things... otherwise, dh and i might have actually gotten about 1,500 back. i am furious, but if we don't sign, even though we signed all the closing things last week, they can actually back out of the deal, and nothing's selling and prices are dropping....and we would be in the poor house in a month...

i just don't understand why we had to give as the buyers and give as the sellers. someone look at my forehead; does it say 'loser' on it?!

Tabbyking you can get pills for the kitty. You give him one 8 hours before you leave, then one right before you leave. They don't knock the kitty out but sure dope him up and the ride is easier on you and kitty, AND no side effects. He'll just sleep it off. Check with a vet - doesn't even have to be yours. All you need to know is the approximate weight of the cat [over or under 10 lbs unless he's smaller than 5 or larger than 20].
Good luck.

RN, i called the vet's office and because the cat hasn't been seen this year, i would have to take him in for a 45 dollar exam to maybe get pills. crap. i don't have the time, the money, or right now, the damn cat, who knows something's up and is hiding.

RN (or whenever you feel like it!), Google Benadryl for cats, Tabby. There are dosages listed, but I don't remember them and forgot to save the sites. It is regular people Benadryl but helps cats with allergies. A side effect is drowsiness. Your mileage may vary.

RN, Dogdoc, where are you? Tabby wants to ask you a question!
