More from Yesterday We were going back to town to work on the shelf paper again. But I'm having my usual bad day after chemo. This time instead of so much in the neck it is in the middle of my chest.Ive doubled up on the pain pills and it does help a little.
This morning we went out to the shed to see if we had another cat, but didn't. We took the three we had caught over to Twila's. Bonnie wanted to meet Twila and came over to go with us. We loaded the big cage into the back of the SUV and drove over. Twila had a big enclosed box horse stall for the cats to be turned loose in. She was all set up for them with a heated water dish and cat food. I took a bag of food over and the rest of the canned cat food that I had left. She might as well use it. When she saw Traveler Twila thought he looked a lot loke a cat she used to have. Remember how he just showed up here, and then would disappear and come back. He is the father cat of all the kittens. So if that is the case, he knows the way back home. It's 5 or 6 miles down there.
We still have two more female cats to catch, Smoky and Tigger. Debbie cleaned the big cage up a little, and hung the old rugs that were cat beds onto the line - I had washed them yesterday. There are a few more dirty ones to be washed and I guess I'll just take them over to the new for the dogs to lay on in the garage so if they are in there it won't be on the cold cement floor.I slept for two or three hours this afternoon, and keep dozing off in the chair, but still need the pills and probably will for another day or so. We might get a few more things packed up to take to the house. The white set of dishes is going over there, plus files and things like that. I also have to get the art supplies together that I want to take. That should be about all. Things we ordered on line are starting to arrive too.
While we were gone to Twila's, Home Depot called and told Joe that the new fridge had been fairly badly dented. If I wanted they would give a discount on it, but I called her back and after discussing it with her decided to have them order another one. She said that if it were hers and was in a place that shows (it is) she wouldn't take the dented one. She thinks another one could come in on Tuesday and be delivered with the other appliances on Wednesday, so no deliveries tomorrow. Why is it always something like this.
I was supposed to get the pump off today but will go tomorrow and I can work on the shelf paper some more if I feel well enough by then. I'll call and get Rocky Mtn. to come and measure for the shades. Need to get the estimates for some kind of fence. Also still have to call Dish TV to get that set up, and that should be it for utilities etc. I have been procrastinating those for too long. Debbie goes to Rock Springs to pick up Beverly and Curtis from the airport. It looks like it will be a very nice weather day for them to fly - maybe still cold though.
TAURID METEOR SHOWER: The annual Taurid meteor shower is underway and it could be a good show. 2008 is a "swarm year" for the Taurids. Between Nov. 5th and 12th, Earth is due to pass through an unusually dense swarm of gritty debris from parent comet 2P/Encke. When a similar encounter happened in 2005, sky watchers observed a slow drizzle of midnight fireballs for nearly two weeks. Whether 2008 will be as good as 2005, however, remains to be seen. In 2005, the swarm encounter was more central; Earth passed through the middle of the cloud. In 2008, forecasters believe we are closer to the outskirts. How much this will affect the shower, no one knows. The best time to look is during the hours around midnight when the constellation Taurus is high in the sky.
