    Oh my god! How adorable they are. Millie looks like what are you bugging me for mom. For once I'm not running around like a tornado. Baby allheart is so adorable. He or she looks so content on that lap.
    Syn, I hear you about the cat. I've got 5 and mr. chippers is just starting to talk to me again. I had to make a promise to never go into an animal shelter by myself for a long time. The last one is a handful. He's an alpha male and refuses to listen but I'm working on him. I never give up on animals. I felt sorry for the poor boy. He got locked in the hall closet last night until this morning and he's making everyone know he's mad about it. I've given him almost all the treats and he keeps going after my ankle.

    I want a lovebunny for a cat next time. I had an Alpha Male (he's the one who died in December), and I still have a Princess (little miss precious paws don't insult my dignity) and a Zoom (oh look--shiny!).

    I want one that will sit in my lap and purr :)

    CBW - that's right. Sorry I forgot. A March baby would be just perfect!

    Chippers how great is that 5 kitties. Too funny the one locked in the hall closet. Oh we've done that too Baby Allheart too. In the laundry room. Ya think she would bark or something. Oh my.

    Oh Synne, so sorry about the one that passed in Dec. That just plain stinks!

    I have a princess type too, she's a tortishell and her name is Tori. She's quite the proper lady. My oldest one rules the roost. The grand dame I call her.
    Lauren sorry to hear about Millie. There's a bug going around here as well. My boys (Devon and Ryan) just got over a respiratory thingy and two weeks later, have it back again.
    Syn you have my sympathies, I put my Tabs down around the same time you did.
    Ryan is still feeling her loss. tues. he asked to see the lock of hair the vet gave me.

    AAAAWWWWW kitty talk makes me sad, I placed our boys box of ashes on the floor the other day and the youngest kitty scented the box then proceeded to lay next to it with his head on top of the box I swear he knew what was in the box its weird though they both seem a lot calmer since we got the ashes back.
    Both of kitty boys are still missing there big kitty brother terribly and as for us well heck it still feels like I've lost an arm after being home with them every day since I was 25 weeks pregnant it was definitely a shock to the system not to have my big fat old boy following me around. His temprement was amazing he was so dosile it was untrue he loved to sleep on his back with his legs in the air in the hope you would tickle his tummy and the purr wow was it big. Hense why I can't go adopt another it has to be a kitten because nothing will compare to his amazing laid back nature.

    Hi CBW!!

    Is Millie feeling any better?

    Oh how I know what you are saying about losing Sammie. There are just no words at all that can describe it.

    I remember when I lost my little Tina Maire, hubby took me to the mall to take my mind off things. I am was just so upset that people were laughing and smiling and I was thinking, "don't you people get it???? I just lost my baby today". Oh boy.

    I am so glad Sammie is back home.

    Oh lauren< I'm sorry. I forgot for a moment you did the same as me and Syn. I can feel her presence. Still hear her meow and that cold wet nose of hers'! She used to sleep by the door of the nursery when the kisd were babies. Tabs was 3 years old when I adopted her and we had her for 12 years before I had to make the decision to put her down. Kidney failure did her in. as I keep telling myself, she was suffering and needed to rest and be painfree. The others knew something was going on because they stayed clear except the grand dame. She's always with me like glue. If anyhting happened to her, I'd be lost. She was 6 weeks when I adopted her and now she's 11.

    Good morning lovely goddesses. Lauren I hate nights like that. I've had'em where I toss and turn and fall asleep the wake up only to find out I slept for 20 minutes. I started taking melatonin which my doc said was safe and not habit forming. I take it an hour before I go to bed and I sleep through the night.
    Allheart, everyday weree together here with you around is ALWAYS a positive day. It's day 10 for you isn't it? Hugs to you for a job well done.
    Lauren, did you get the gum? It'll help I promise you. How's little madam doing today? My boys have done that and felt better 10 minutes later.
    mr. chipper is back playing army today. So I'm being held captive by the two orangatans.
    Now I could really use a ride down the stairs in the laundry basket.

    LOL madams fine little cow was laughing 5 minnutes later when she was in the bath me on the other hand can still smell the sick and I've scrubbed till I was blue in the face yucky.
    I haven't got gum yet no I'm to tierd to go to town and get it lol I will though eventually.

    I have to admit I've thought about asking the dr for sleeping help but never got round to it I just hate the feeling in the morning like I've been out drinking all night its horrid but the pills work.

    I have tried melotonin, I have also tried, Not sure of spelling ( Valerian).

    Tried over the counter sleeping pills, never worked.

    Somebody at my work told me to try Gravol, to take gravel before going to bed. You know what to my surprise it actually worked. Instead of getting my usual 2 hours sleep, I was actually able to sleep for 5 hours.

    Oh and when I went to the doctor and asked him about the sleeping, you will have no idea what he gave me, of course no refills. Get this the doctor gave me Valium for help sleeping. It pretty much works the same as gravol, instead of 2 get about 5 or 6.

    Best of luck with everybody.

    Melatonin is over the counter in the vitamin section. I'll take it and wake up refreshed. Melatonin is naturally occurring in the body. As you get older, the level decreases.
    The doctor just put me on ativan for dizziness since the antivert isn't working anymore.
    Now There's a good little pill. If Im not careful, Ill be going down the stairs without the basket.

    Larua - Glad Millie is okay. Not much for those sleep aid things. Makes you feel so groggy the next day.

    Well,

    I am still taking the antibiotics. I am loading up on vitamin c. My wife is making homemade ginger and lemon tea. I am hearing impaired in the ear of the infection. My throat is better but my glands are still swollen and sore and ear still blocked. Other then that I am feeling a lot better then a week ago. I thought I was dying lol I guess it is not that funny.

    We are now making some home made food tonight.

    Real veal cutlets and homemade stuffed peppers. Am I making any of you hungrey?

    Anyway, Hope all is well with everybody. Have a good evening.

    He goes away one weekend a month, but had to teach a class today. The pop is going fine. Still to 4 cans. Or 2 20 ounce bottles less with the bottles by 8 ounces. I went into the boy's bedroom with a whip and a chair and cleaned it. I started at 12 noon and finished at 6p. Well I'm done for today. Tomorrow is another day.
    Joe, you naughty boy you, my mouth is drooling over those stuffed peppers. I'm the only one here that likes them so I stick with the stouffers. I'm glad you're feeling better. My son went through that and his ear drum actually ruptured. And healed very nicely. Keep taking the antibiotics. Thank your new doc for saving your hearing. Fired the old quack.
    I'm glad to hear madam is doing better. She's too precious to get sick.
    I guess syn did get the goddess treatment today. The whole nine yards. I wonder if she got french tips withher pedi.
    Talk to everyone later. I'm watching the blue collar comedy tour. After all that cleaning I need a good laugh

    Just to update everybody,

    The stuffed peppers were so so good. Hmmm, Ah ahAh Ah very good. Lol

    I will send out some recipes.

    Yes, I am going to cook up the quack soon. I took care of that. Lol

    Yes, my hearing is still off, but I guess it will take some time to get back to normal.

    Ooooohhhhhhhhh stuffed green bell peppers. I wish for one day when we all can get together. To actually meet each other. Thrrough these past 2 weeks I feel I've known you all longer. I can't tell you how much I enjoy these moments when I'm posting with you. I fell onto the web site by accident and I'm glad I did. We come from all over bringing a little bit of each of us to share a laugh, a cry, support, and most of all kindness and love.

    I feel very lucky at the moment.

    I feel the same way. It is very good to meet everybody and get to know everybody. It is good sharing our stories with each other.

    (and its not the Valium talking) lol

    I think that would be an awesome idea, everybody getting together one day. We all come from different places. It is an amazing experience. The technology of today.
