i had the most unpleasant visit to the vet today timmy does not like the vet we got him in the little carry case and he cried all the way there he was fine in the waiting room and they called us in we got him out of the case and the tech. weighed him and my mom helped her cut his nails he was being a good boy then we were waiting for the vet to come he had jumped off the shelf thingy, so i went to pick him up and he attacked my arm growling and hissing so i left him on the ground and he was all growling and angry the vet got in and he would not let her come near him he somehow went into a cupboard or something so she left him there and went to get some towels and gloves when she got back he wouldnt come out so she had to pull/push/shove him out she had to put on these big leather gloves and use a couple towels but she did manage to pick him up he was growling and hissing and scratching and flailing around he was behaving very horribly he would not calm down so she had to go get someone else to help hold him down while she tried to examine him he hid under a chair growling and hissing the whole time she was gone after the took him to the back to harness him or something in order to try to get a blood test fortunately they did manage to do that without sedating him, which they thought they might have to do unfortunately we are supposed to get a stool & urine sample from him ...ack. they brought him back in his little carry case and he seemed much calmer and tired he was quiet the whole way home when we got home he seemed ok, he had a bandage on his leg and he wanted that off, so my dad cut it off i dont think he is very happy with us still, but at least he is not being a very bad kitty anymore |

-doctors visit went ok. he is making me an appointment for me to see a nutritionist. i am going to have to really change my diet and exercise a lot more (i need to lose around 20lbs right soon, ack.) and we will see how things are in a couple of months. ....um.. i have a total lack of motivation for anything, this is going to be hard. -timmy cat has a vet appointment on monday. he is not going to be too happy about it, but he needs a check up very much so. -i still want to clean my house ... this is hard to do from afar. -i am feeling stressed out right now. -i think i will hide. |

my leg still hurts. i dont know what thats all about? i finally called the doctor today i called and the receptionist asked why i wanted an appointment, i said i needed to discuss blood work she said 'tomorrow at quarter to 5?' ok! usually you dont get in to see the doc right away like that i was kinda expecting end of next week sometime i am not really looking forward to a new diagnosis i bought some stuffed pasta the other day i am going to go make that i also bought some mix to make muffins usually i would just make muffins from scratch, but i wanted carrot muffins and didnt want to put much effort into them this mix costs $1 and you just put water and an egg into it and ta-da! (plus i am putting raisins) |

timmy cat has an upset tummy lately but he has still been eating a lot? we really need to take him to the vet for a check up & luckily we recently got a letter from the vet saying that november was their senior pet month and they are having a package deal for seniors including check up, blood work, discussing nutrition (& a bag of food) and i am not sure what else. it didnt say how much it costs, but it is exactly what we need for him in other news: i am freezing today i need to go find some socks i also need to go hide under a blanket yikes. i think i will go put some potatoes on to boil & watch tv. |

i went home last night to find my back door wide open arg. ya see, the other day my uncle & marva were over at my house (by themselves, with my permission) getting a bunch of boxes and stuff that marva had stored in my basement while she was out of the country i did go home and sleep last night not noticing anything but they had left the back light on and yesterday my dad had reminded me to shut it off when i go home so i got home and it felt a bit chilly in there and i went to the back to shut off the light and the door was wide open. ack. my house is a mess, but it didnt look like the mess was messed with, so thats good but i still felt blah about the thought of strangers in my house so i stayed at my parents place last night my dad called them to tell them they left things open/on & marva called me back saying that they had shut off the light and locked the door i know that the light was on after they left & as for the door being open after they were using it being a coincidence? i dont think so. they had taken a break halfway through and came to my folks place for tea or something and i had to specifically ask them to go lock the door while they were here i think that door doesnt stay shut very well unless it is actually locked, so it doesnt necessarily mean that someone else actually went into my house but still... this isnt the best neighbourhood, my house has been broken into before, i did them a favour by letting them store stuff here.. |

today was an ok day. i went to save on foods and got a whole swack of fruitsations, they were on sale finally went to check my po box and was pleased to find a bunch of actual mail amongst the handful of junk mail! i got some zines, some sent in for consideration, which i will read but i dont plan on doing any distro stuff (except fill orders) until the new year & i got some lovely mailart from someone who got my name from the iuoma website but i was super pleased to get a catalog/documentation from a copy art show done back in 1993 i had found a website about it online while i was in the hospital and contacted the guy, he said he was moving or something and would send me a copy later. its been a long time and i kinda figured he would have just forgotten about it, but nope, i got it today!~ yay!!! it really makes me want to get new toner for my copier. i was asking my dad about it the other day too, if he could take the cartridge in to be refilled for me. i am feeling somewhat inspired to clean my table. i think that if i could just do that i would be able to work on some art stuff, that might boost my mood and make cleaning the rest of my stuff easier. my uncle & marva came over today to get stuff that she had stored in my place while she was in trinidad. most of it was in the basement, but perhaps it might clear up a bit of space where i can put some stuff i need to go into storage. but anyway, i need to go make me a big old salad. |

i woke up and was going to have a shower but i sat down on the toilet for a second and i just felt sick. my head felt weird and dizzy and yuck and a shower just felt -unsafe- i went and sat down on the couch for awhile, i ended up having a nap for awhile after that i decided to postpone the shower till later everyone else was decorating and getting ready for the party around me i went upstairs and had another little nap after that i felt a bit better, had my shower and ended up making it through the party i wished my sister was there because there was just so many people i dont do well in crowds this evening i ended up not feeling well again.. ..another nap. tonight is our last night here (night 2 on the air mattress) i am really hoping i dont feel sick tomorrow because there is a 3hr+ drive home i tend to not travel well anyway, so blah. my jaw on the other hand is doing very well but i wonder if perhaps the antibiotics are what is making me dizzy? |

yesterday my jaw was hurting a bit, ick. i was hoping it might just go away, but when i woke up it was still quite sore so i called the dentist and had him call in a Rx for antibiotics for me my jaw is quite swollen, mom & dad have both commented on it i just took 4 pills a little while ago and then i have to take 1 - 3x/day for the next week & i go see the dentist next thursday on a positive note, i finally did my fasting blood work i have been meaning to do that for months already, i just keep forgetting i go see drB2 next wed. so the results should be in by then it will be interesting to see if my white blood count is actually up a bit seeing as i am fighting an infection right now this weekend i am going down to calgary for little miss scarletts 3rd birthday while i am not really looking forward to sleeping on an air mattress & my whole time schedule being changed to fit normal people hours, it should be fun we might also be carving a pumpkin!~ i havent done that for years & i like the gook! |

it snowed last night AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! and laying in bed i realized that i a have MAJOR anxiety of stairs + snow i was finally getting up confidence to go down stairs now add snow and ~fear~ my dad called me before i got up to remind me to sweep the steps before i went down them simple idea but i honestly wouldnt have thought of it it helped ease my nerves a lot i feel like such a wuss in other news: i am trying to find a good recipe for potatoes i am making little potatoes for thanksgiving but i want to do something different with them also, my stomach is being bothersome paining me i hate you bile. i should really go get some rolaids or whatever digestive bandaid we have lying around see if that helps for a bit apparently taking meds every day is not enough please my insides |

i think i want to make 'cookies and cream cheesecakes' for thanksgiving this weekend but the recipe calls for 2lbs of cream cheese (& cream cheese is on sale this week, yay) but i have no idea how much 2lbs of cream cheese is looking online, apparently the come in 8oz packs, which is half a lb. so, id need 4 but um, we use the metric system up here? maybe i can see in the flyer how much each bar weighs? it says 150 - 250g ... i am assuming 250g (i also noticed that whipping cream is on sale, *mental note*) 250 gram = 8.818 490 487 4 ounce or 8 ounce = 226.796 185 gram i will just get 4 bars. i am not in a very happy mood i have +broke+ my little envelope maker i have broken it like this before, its stuck and my mom fixed it but she is sleeping i have been doing things to try and keep me occupied because i am in an odd mood but i just feel icky. i think i might make a mug brownie (like almost every day now) and maybe some kettle corn and watch something totally mindless on tv. i am also missing a bunch of papers that i printed out awhile ago. a LOT of papers and i have no clue where they are. this is irritating me as well. the end. |

well sir, i didnt do a good job. my fish crayons were somewhat of a disaster. big mistake #1. i forgot to spray the mold with pam so they wouldnt stick result: they stuck. causing all the tails to break off except for 2 (out of 12) the mold is a mess, but i think i will try again, right on top of the mess this time i will * not put foil on the bottom of the pan * spray the mold with pam * let them cool a bit in the water so i can remove them from the water more easily * let them cool on the shelf as opposed to in the fridge (maybe, i am iffy on this one) i have drB appointment tomorrow. also, tomorrow is grocery shopping day, 10% off tuesday (but my dad said something about it being 15% off this month?) i am looking forward to buying some salad. i am craving fresh/raw food. i also want to get some celery cause i want to make 'ants on a log' (celery with peanut butter & raisins). i also want to go to the post office tomorrow. everyone from my magnet exchange has posted that they have mailed their magnets, so i am looking forward to seeing them!~ i still havent done my taxes from last year. (i should do them so i get GST checks) |

i finally got around to making fish crayons tonight i had all the crayons and everything ready, i just had to actually do them ( like this: http://community.livejournal.com/handmade_gifts/117560.html ) it didnt go totally smoothly next time i try i will not use foil, once the water started boiling it started pushing up the foil which started pushing on the mold which wasnt great. i tried poking a hole, not so good. then when i tried to take the mold out of the pan of water i ended up spilling some wax fortunately it was mostly just over the mold itself and i dont think it will ruin the crayons right now they are just sitting on the shelf cooling i think i will put them in the fridge soon hopefully later on tonight they will be nice and cool enough to pop em out and see what they look like also: yesterday i made mug brownies for me & mom ( see here: http://www.instructables.com/id/Mug_Brownie/ ) they were pretty good, rather rich the recipe ended up filling half a decent sized mug, so it was kinda a bit much i think i might try to make another one tonight but half the recipe i think its kinda neat because it is super easy & quick if you need a chocolate fix somewhere on that site it mentions adding a scoop of ice cream at the end i think that would be yum!~ |
