    Kriston, so sorry to hear about your cat and the guilt you are feeling, but he was obviously very loved and at least he went peacefully.

    As to the rest of your week - it has been hard! Hope the surgery today went well and hopefully things will pick up for you. The drugged out haze might not be too much of a bad thing...

    Oh my!
    Major hugs and so sorry to hear about kitty! We lost my big dog a few years back and it was so sad, 16 years of faithful, crazy, hairy affection.

    Hope you are 'feeling fine' post-surgery~ smile.

    Take care after your surgery.

    My thoughts exactly.

    We'll miss you, Kriston. Hope you're back on board soon enough with your insights and wit.

    I don't know about insights or wit, but I'm back. smile Thanks all. What would I do without this forum?

    We buried my poor cat in the snow today. A bit of (dark?) humor: he has always slept stretched out as long as he can be, and that's how he died. Now, he was a LONG cat, and his tail was so long that we used to say he had "a tail of two kitties," har har. wink Naturally, since he died as he lived, my DH had to dig a very long hole to fit him into. That made me smile. He was never a small cat in any way. He had a big, deep purr and a big personality and a big, long body. He needed a big grave, too. Bless him! laugh

    DH is spending the weekend writing proposals for jobs, so hopefully there's something on the horizon. Fingers crossed.

    My jaw hurts a lot less than I thought it would, so that's good news. Now if only I could eat something that wasn't liquified. frown sick mad

    So, anyone have any good recipes for steak in a blender? <smirk>
