I think we're going to the beach in a bit once H goes down for his nap. M will go in the water as long as I hold her the whole time. 🙄

S holds her seizure medicine in her mouth sometimes for up to 10 minutes before swallowing. Today she still had it in there when I dropped her off at day care. So I waited around to make sure she swallowed it. She didn't. She spit it out! This was the first time she's done that. I hope she doesn't realize that is an option now. If so I am screwed. So I just had to come back home to get more and am taking her another dose. Ugh. Little shit.
Today I am off but I am getting a load of pea gravel (12 tons!) delivered for Sierra's play area. Then I have to go in to our volunteer appreciation picnic at work for a bit. I supervise about 10 volunteers (campground hosts) so I have to go and show my support. I have to make a desert to take. I'm thinking brownies because easy.

lfig, I am always amazed at how you deal with all those meds. These kids are the worst to medicate so the fact that you've made it this long without stealthy spitting is pretty awesome! Hopefully she cuts the shit!

I have two interns starting today and then two interviews later, plus a ton of accounting stuff to do. So far I've been here an hour and the most I've accomplished is a morning dance party

Morning! It's rainy and cool here today. We aren't letting that stop us and will be going to an indoor pool with some friends in an hour or so.

Morning ladies! My computer has been on the fritz for the past few days, so I need to go back and catch up on what's going on.
I did want to thank you all for your thoughts/prayers/vibes, etc for the girl I work with who previously had breast cancer. She received her biopsy results yesterday and it is not malignant, so she's good!

Morning! I've been in the office for 5 minutes and am on hold with IT. My computer lost the program that uploads all of our government contracts. I'm the only one with the program. So this is not a great start to the day.
Maybe it's a good excuse to say screw today and go back to bed while the fix my computer. Lol

Going on an early lunch to get my nails done. I chipped a few this week and was babying them, hoping to last another week. But I ripped one clean off last night so I'm just getting them redone.

Well 40% off anyways plus 20% off on kids' stuff, so I say strike while the iron is hot! Not sure if you can see on this little ass view, but this shit is cute! (Not sure why it's not showing the actual prices I paid, which were lower).

Morning! Such good news mwhip! Lucas has pre-op dr app this afternoon and after that we're going out to dinner to celebrate dh's promotion. Nothing else on the agenda. Oh, but I did wake up this morning to our electric bill. $700. Got to love AZ in the summer. 😒

At work. Vet visit went....not well? They are pretty sure it is his liver. His ears have a yellow tint to them, which I hadn't noticed. They did his bloodwork and called me already with the results. His liver numbers are elevated as well as his white blood cell count. It could be an infection in his liver or bile duct, it could be liver disease, it could be cancer in his liver. The ultrasound tech is coming in to work on him and then they will call me around lunchtime to give me the results of that. For now they're giving him iv fluids and an anti-nausea medicine. I'm so deflated. He has also lost 4 lbs since January. He was 16lbs in January and now is only 12. Some of it could be the switch from dry to wet food and not letting him graze anymore, but 4lbs is way too much loss. I don't see this going well.

I'm sorry klong11. Liver stuff in cats is very difficult to treat but I've seen them turn around. I hope that's the case for your boy. I'll be thinking of him today.

sands42 slenle yeah and the crazy thing is we are super cheap about it. I don't mind being warm and dh isn't home most of the day so we only set the ac to 83. Most people set theirs in the low 70's and their bills are in the $1000's during the summer.

My boss's unprofessionalism and terrible work ethic is becoming comical. He was out yesterday golfing and thought he'd be out today for jury duty. He wanted me to tell the customer he upset yesterday that he was out both days on Jury duty. lies. Then he didn't end up having to go in today for jury duty but is going to "work from home" because it might rain hard and he doesn't want to come in if it does. WTF? He still has not followed up on the task he gave me yesterday. I sent 1 email to get the process started and haven't gotten a response yet so I'm not going to worry about it.
I was so stressed about it and having such a bad day yesterday. DH said I need to not let those things get to me because it was literally making me sick, so that's what I'm trying to do.

yummeecookee I love the gap x Disney collab. The girl stuff is so cute, but the boy selection is very little and not as cute. xolastunicornxo I always thought I wanted to live in AZ, but a $700 electricity bill when your AC is only set to 83 is crazy! MH would have a heart attack. He wasn't thrilled with our $170 bill last month. Like YH, he is "frugal", to put it nicely.

Vet just called. Apparently he has an infection in his gallbladder and pancreas, but it is treatable with medication and something that they can get rid of. They are keeping him until Friday for observation and to continue giving him iv fluids and his antibiotics as injectables. So good news!! She said his liver was slightly enlarged, but that it is likely secondary due to the infection and everything else looked good!
