How is your day Today? Chat about your plans and achievements 2025....

Busy day today. It started out with a very early morning text from my older daughter saying their power had gone out during the blizzard. Luckily, it came back on within a few hours.

My friends and I had our annual Christmas tea at one person's house. During the year we meet every Friday at a coffee shop, and attendance can be sporadic, but at Christmas we all make an extra-special effort to be there, and we exchange small gifts. I look forward to it every year.

Then my younger daughter and her boyfriend came over for an early Christmas dinner, movie, and gift exchange.

It's kind of strange because these past few days have been quite busy, but next week, when it actually IS Christmas, things for me will be quiet. Except for work, of course! 😄
 
I put away the rest of yesterday's laundry. Deja had a vet appointment this evening, so I cleaned out her carrier and lined it with a wee-wee pad just in case. Glad I did because when we got there, she peed. The vet sensed that she was very nervous. She spoke to her and treated her so gently. This is the first time she's seen Deja. Her other vet, who owns the business, was taking care of the dogs tonight. I really like this new doctor. who is more personable and I hope she sees Deja next year. She surprised me when she said it was only her second week there.

She gave my baby her distemper shot and took blood. She tried twice in one vein...and nothing. At first I told her not to try again, but Deja's never had blood work so I told her to try one more time using another vein. She got some blood, but not enough to do a full profile. Geesh...Deja's like me (or the way it used to be with me). They also trimmed her nails. Deja never moved a muscle nor made a sound while they were examining, sticking her and trimming. It's always like that.

But she gives us a hard time when we try to brush her and clip the claws. Just trying to put her in the carrier tonight...we we had to chase her around with the hand vac and corner her in the bathroom. Her heart is good but she's a bit overweight. The vet said house cats often have that issue, so no judgement. Me and Deja are going to have to exercise more. The assistants are also very nice and good with Deja. One of them wanted her so bad when she was a kitten. 😺 I had taken Deja there twice before I realized this "person" I heard talking behind the glass partitioned receptionist area is actually a bird! She was saying Hello a lot tonight. 😄

Morning all, when I first woke up at 4:30, looked out the bedroom window all the snow we had on ground was gone. This was due to the warm temps we had yesterday&Weds.Weds high was 42, yesterday it hit 55.I went back to sleep until 6:20. When I opened the livingrm blinds, could see the flag was really whipping,knew I wasn't; going outside today I ck'd the temp on my phone, 45& raining
