Sunday stuff

Not much to say today, but please know I’m thinking of all my loyal readers and hoping you’re making it through this OK. If you’re not, talk to someone, even if it’s just by text; they might need to talk to someone too.

Sylvester (the Talking Kitty Cat of the series’ name) was probably cursing out Steve here. He probably still is.

Why do I bring this up? Because Steve Cash, who is one of the few YouTubers I follow, took his own life a few days ago. I don’t typically use his videos here because they’re not always family friendly (Sylvester swears like a sailor), but his Talking Kitty Cat videos are funny and sometimes very sweet. Now Sylvester, Gibbyson, Random Kitty and Shelby Girl only have Mom around while Dad plays with Gibson (Gibbyson’s dad, who died about four years ago) again.

Let’s all try to find the happy while we’re stuck inside … that thing that makes you smile and feel better, even if only for a little while. It’s tough right now for all of us, and for those of us with depression, it can be even harder to find a tiny bit of something to feel good about.

He really was extraordinarily sweet to me and his grandma. He was a good boy. Bitey, but good.

I’ve found myself reliving the boy’s last hours, and missing him more than I thought possible. Still, I know that if he saw me feeling like this, he would plop down wherever it was least convenient for me, then put a paw on my hand and his head on my leg.

Then he’d probably let out a silent-but-deadly. Rotten boy. God, I miss him.

He’d also say I should watch some videos. Let’s indulge him, shall we?

  1. Here are some thoughts to help you cope with house arrest:

    If schools are closed much longer, parents are going to invent a vaccine before the scientists do.

    I used to spin the toilet paper like I was on Wheel of Fortune. Now it’s like I’m cracking a safe.

    Good news about my car: I’m getting 3 weeks to the gallon.

    And when this quarantine is over, let’s not tell some people.

    My housecleaner just called to tell me that she’ll be working from home, but will phone me with instructions on what to do.

    Corona-free man seeks corona-free woman with toilet paper. Send pictures of toilet paper.

    As we continue the lockdown, remember that Osama Bin Laden spent 3 years stuck in a house with 5 wives. What do you bet he called the navy SEALS himself?

    • Excellent points, all.

      The other day as I put three more rolls on top of the toilet, I was suddenly struck by fear. Oh, God, I only have three rolls left after this! What am I gonna do when it runs out???
      Then I remembered I have another package in the car. 🤨
      I’ll be so happy when this is over. I don’t have the energy to freak out anymore. 😉

  2. Of course the former sister-in-law is one person I definitely do not want to know that the quarantine is over but she is still working steadily because she is classified as “essential” personnel at UAMS. She works in the Labor And Delivery Unit on the evening shift. When pregnant women arrive, it is her job to check them in and get them admitted and figure out which room to put them in. After the women give birth and are ready to go home, it is her job to discharge the patient and their new baby or babies.
