I'm all nervous about my emoticons LOL. I mean, that's two right there.


SQUIRREL REPORT :

I got a new litter box with a new type of litter, seeing that Chami really, really hates the feel of the silica. She'll always unhappily perch herself up on the sides of the automatic box (which is unplugged since she inadvertently stepped on the on button and made the rake come out while she was letting flow), and well, I can't have my Bone unhappy, can I.

I'm trying paper litter this time, recommended by my friend who says that's what his squirrel likes best.

Lulu wanted to eat it.

Just in two days, yay! I've discovered one poopy and one pee-y in the new box, though I don't know who's it is.

I really want to use emoticons here, folks, but I must conserve.

Anyway, I hope to find Chami using it, and hope she's happy with the feel of the new litter.

I also got a Da Bird toy, and man, almighty, it's fantastic! The squirrels absolutely love it! But last night I made the mistake of storing it in the closet directly next to my bed, and all night it was scratch meow scratch scratch meow trying to get the door open. I was in and out of that kind of weird sleep where I was up enough to know the kitties were noisily trying to get in the closet, but not up enough to figure out to get up and move the dang toy LOL.



Okay, nobody knows about jumping jacks. LOL. Moving on.

My kettlebells arrive tomorrow. I can't wait!

ROBIN -

>Maybe you guys should break up your mile-long-mistives into several short, smilie bedecked posts. That would increase the junior members post count too.

LMAO. The thought actually DID occur to me to do that. But then I realized I'd be spending half the day preparing my posts.

I wonder why there needs to be a smilie ration anyway? Does it make the forum that much heavier?

It's too bad the avatar doesn't get larger if you click on it. I think it might be one of the cuter photos I've taken of Moochie Pie and Chami Bone.


JENNIFER - That's great about your friend who wanted to get healthier and in shape, continuing with her workouts and eating. She must be feeling inspired? Have you been helping her with rotations and a good food plan?

>an alum from my old college ( Northwood Institute now University) sent me an email today

Were you friends with this guy? That's nice that he took time to contact you. Will you be getting together for a drink?

>Bummed out, they are sending people home early from work cause we ARE slow

You're cute. I thought you wanted out of this work? Maybe getting out is actually not really what you want? Usually people are supposed to be happy to go home early!


MICHELE - Hiya! Did you get lots of stuff done yesterday? I keep thinking about what you wrote about starting your thread from the start -- that it's sort of like starting anew, and that's kind of inspiring! Do you think you'll stay with Miss Lee?


DANA - Ooh, I love purple! And I love the purple font, too! Where'd you find that? I'm going to have to take a closer look...I also haven't yet figured out the basic emoticons here. Advanced? Hmm. I must look at this section!


JEN - Hey you! It's good to finally see you here...with your new name!

Sorry, Michele will have to tell you about the link thing, as I have no idea at all!

Good luck with the rest of your busy week!


Okay, today I'm working outside. So I guess that means I won't be able to monitor the new litter box again.

Have a nice day and see you later!

Hello Haters.
Thank GOD, Friday is half way here. Work is SLOW and I would like to hang onto something till something better comes around.
My old college alum, I didn't know at school. He found me in our magazine.
The boys are doing well with the cooler weather. I mowed the lawn (weeds) last night so it looks descent for a week.

August-You have all the high tech stuff for your squirrels. My boys have old fashioned litter in the old school box. It's best to leave their toys out. Madrid likes to bring a toy mouse to bed with us. So,last night, I was throwing it and he was bringing it back (kinda like a dog).

Michele-busy as always? So, how's your sister? Are you doing anything fun before summer ends?

Hello Robin, Dana, and Jen.

Have a Great Day!!
 
Good morning!

I have a deskunking appointment this morning and I can't wait! It's a week overdue because my stylist was on vacation and my hair looks awful!

I'm going to register a complaint about the smilie limitation. I'll deal with the new name (it's actually growing on me), but to be stripped of my smilies is more than I can take -- LMAO!

Yes, Augie, I'm probably going to keep my new user name. I've been trying to get a new password but it won't come through. I don't mind the new name so much as I'm PO'd about losing my 11,037 post count...and I'm not crazy about being a "junior" member...but I'm not sure I want to be a "senior" member either. I'm impossible to please -- LMAO!! :p

Well I agree with Chami Bone -- I've never been a fan of the automatic litter boxes. IIRC, back when I worked for the vet, about 1/2 of the people who used those litter boxes got rid of them (a lot of cats get freaked out by them).

I wll have to investigate "Da Bird". What is it -- can you post a link, or will that deprive you of a smilie? :mad:

And yes, I accomplished a lot yesterday! It was one of the most productive days I've had in a long time.

I can't wait for you to get your KB!! I'm going to do a KB workout today. I did CCV4 yesterday.

Aug -- have you bought new shoes yet? I'd hate for you to drop a KB on your bare feet, and I want you to try and hit your CC spot -- :eek:

JENNIFER -- I hope your job isn't in jeopardy! I'll pray about it. My sister is having a rough time of it. Aside from the depression over her divorce, her MS is acting up. I'm really worried about her.

I need to go - Johnny is fussing over breakfast, and I need to get ready for my appointment. I'll BBL.

Hello to robin, Jen, Dana, Cuz, and all!! Jen, I'm glad you made it in, new name and all.

P.S. I just got my first 5 smilie warning -- Grrrrrrrrrrr.
 
Hi, Haters!

Okay, I'll try to get back into the swing of things. Lots of things have been pulling me away from the forums - nothing bad, just stuff, you know? I've missed y'all!

Augie - your posts are still wonderful, even without the smilies. It'll be okay. I promise.

Jennifer - I'm with you! Work is slow here too, and I can't wait for the week to be over.

Cuz - I like your new name. But it's just devastating to loose that 11,000 post count! Wow! I've got a measly 4,000-and something.

I should try to post a bunch of smileys just to see what the warning is like.. Let's see: :eek: :cool: :rolleyes: :D

Aha. I understand. I added six smilies, and it told me that was a no-no. LOL! So I deleted two. I can handle it. Most of the time.....
 
Quick note - we had a pretty big earthquake just now -- I'm fine...just freaked out.

More tomorrow, but I wanted to let you know all's okay in Tokyo.
 
Augie - Whew! I'm glad you're okay. Please keep us posted. Did your apartment suffer any damage?
 
Hello Haters.

They sent someone home again today. I'm not sure if/when my time will happen. Pray for a new opp for me. Thanks.
