And Then There Were Four....

Lily is really coming into her own. It’ll be interesting to see how things go when Oliver gets here.
I need to order cat food, but I’ll do so tomorrow.
Oops, I need to set up weekly pet waste cleanup.
Woke up at 6 AM. Lily is here and said, “Hi”.
I’m trying to decide whether to work or not. I have this week off, but in general, I’d like to save my vacation time for travel.
Ordered a new pair of Kiziks because Bella did something with my old ones. Ordered cat food and human food.
Zara is warily watching Lily, who is ignoring her. Fed Lily and Zara. Did dishes.
Hmm. I really want to go back to sleep. I decided to take today off and go back to work tomorrow. I sent a message to work telling them what happened and that I’m back. Called the vet where Oliver and Bella is being boarded and said that I would be by in the early afternoon to pick them up.
My boss could not have been kinder. She said that if I needed time to recover from the sad end to my trip, to take it, and that sick days cover mental health too. But I’m okay except for dreaming that I had a stroke.
My vet left a message with her condolences.
Got our groceries. Lily thinks that my food is her food, or at least, she hopes so.
Yeah, I needed a quiet day. In a few minutes, I’ll hop into the shower and then go pick up Oliver and Bella.
I’ve gotten set with the pet waste people.
Holy cow. I forgot a bottle of soda in the freezer. I took it out to thaw. It just exploded all over my cabinets and stand mixer. I wiped them down but need to go over them with spray cleaner. The bottle is now in the sink where I should have put it in the first place.
Lily was trying to catch the waterdrops on the shower. And she had to go in when I got out.
Bella and Oliver are home. There was an issue with my credit card, but we got it straightened out. Bella’s tail is on max wag. However, she ate (and pooped out) her collar. They gave her an x-ray and she’s okay. Don’t know what I’m going to do with that crazy dog though. Oliver and Bella were faves at the boarding place though. And Bella jumped into the car and gave me a kiss!
Uh-oh. Oliver and Lily had a little squabble. And Bella needs lots of reassurance, not surprisingly. So much for taking Bella for a nice long walk. (I’m not going to choir tonight. Actually there is no choir because of Spring Break.) She needs a collar or harness. I ordered both from Amazon.
The pupster is settling down.
My stomach hurts. I’m going to lie down. Slept with Bella and slept so deeply that I wasn’t sure if it was morning or night. The pup is still asleep. Oops, she just woke up. She just rolled over.
Took Bella out. She needs to sniff every square inch of the yard. I need to get someone to rake leaves. Fed Bella and the catlings are in process (done). Ordered cat food covers because I now have an odd number of cats. But Bella ate the extra food :)
Oliver and Lily are playing "Catch Me If You Can!" upstairs. I'm going to take Bella out one more time and then go to bed early. I'm still tired.
