First Entry

Yay!!!! I'm number one!!!! Oh, wait......sorry, that's wrong.

I just hate seeing that on other blogs and websites. Like, how dorky can you be?

Anyway, this is my first post. Duh......

I'm back in the city from which I moved. Hasn't changed. Neither have the a$$hole drivers....my bad if you're offended by that! You may be one of them!

I recently moved from a relatively large city to a VERY small town. Both are located in the southern region of the U.S.

I discovered that I really love living in a small town. We're actually on the outskirts of the actual incorporated city. I'm about 4 miles outside of town.

My household is made up of one daughter (from now on known as light of my life, three fish, 2 cats and a hamster......oh, yeah, and my mother. Yes, you read that right, I live with my mother. More accurately, she lives with me. She retired recently and we both moved up here. She plans to build (what she affectionately calls) her death house. This will be the last house she plans to ever live in. Until it gets built, she's living with me. It's fine for now and seems to work. She cooks us dinner and keeps my house relatively clean. Yes, I know it sounds like a dream come true, but, I hate that she's doing all this at the beginning of her retirement. However, she's not complaining and if she's not, I won't....much.

I had a recent scare with one of my cats......no this is not going to be a blog about me and my cats.....at least not all the time!

See, I have this amazing cat. I got him about 10 years ago and he was blind. A few months after I got him, it was recommended by his vet that I have his eyes removed (that's a long drawn out story for later). I did and he survived and has actually thrived with the loss of his eyes. Since he had never seen before, he wasn't missing much. Anyway, I recently noticed him wobbling when he walked and tripping getting out of the litter box. My mom volunteered to take him to the vet and he had either developed arthritis (which can come on practically overnight with cats) or had an inner ear infection. He's on meds for both and is doing much better. After the meds are done, we'll know better what it is. If the wobbling comes back after the meds are done, it's arthritis. If it doesn't, it was an ear infection. Fingers crossed for an ear infection.

There's much more about me and my life. I can't guarantee it's interesting. I can't guarantee that you'll care, but here it is for all to read.

I have minimal access to a fast computer but I'll try to post as much as possible. I'm tired from shopping all day long and from all those a$$hole drivers I mentioned above.

Later gators....
