redambrosia 79921 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 I had a sad. The anime figure I ordered for hubby for Father’s Day (back in may) is still sitting in China. Wish.com gave me a full refund, but I would have rather had the figure. If wish can’t get stuff out of the country, they may die 18 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

However, Molly will probably be sedated and will sleep for most of it. Here's hoping all goes well! Thanks, and she will be under general anesthesia, which she has undergone once (she somehow got a lithium ion battery out of a noise-making dog toy and swallowed it when she was 7 months old, so that was 6 hours at the animal emergency to get it out of her... and no more toys with batteries). We also opted to do the CT scan at the same time so they can get a better idea before they go cutting into her. I met the surgeon back in January when he did an extensive surgery on the cat, so I'm confident he has skills. But still... it's near her throat, and if whatever it is (currently just diagnosed as a lipoma but felt bigger a few days ago) has begun to go deeper into vital areas, she could have problems. I'm going to worry regardless. She chose me as her protector during the first 24 hours she was here, and it hasn't changed in 2.5 years (little blurry of a photo, but she's sitting right between my legs after the vacuum scared her): 19 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

New measures have been announced because we're in a second wave of the virus now ( the Netherlands) I will know for sure tomorrow, but it seems our Commander wants us to work from home as much as possible. Not really cool... At least working from home is safe, and you get more time with doggo! :) 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kuroneko 18259 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 1 hour ago, ManvsMini said: Fairly productive day. Met my brother halfway to swap fresh orchard apples for his picking up my meds (compound pharmacy makes it, and we don't have one in my town). Was able to take Molly with me for a nice hour long car ride that didn't end with her at the vet, though she'll hate me next week when I take her in to have those lumps on her neck removed... trying not to worry too much about that, but I'll be a nervous wreck while she is in surgery (they may keep her overnight too, and she's never spent a day or night apart from me). Fingers crossed for Molly! Here's hoping she takes it in her stride and is back with you, safe and sound, as soon as possible after the surgery. Give her a big hug from me.

Remember to put laxatives in the water cooler if this is some bug brought back by one of your dozen co-workers who went on that trip a few weeks ago...

Hope you get to feeling better Thanks everyone, it's nothing serious, just something pops up once in a while and leaves me at a low ebb. Mostly over it now, thank goodness.

SparrowMarie 26352 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Today is very bittersweet. It's Husband and I's 10th anniversary of when we started dating.

BadgersinMeadows 2662 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 @SparrowMarie Congratulations on your anniversary. Sincere condolences for your loss, may your friend rest in peace. Sending love and sympathy. I found some people willing to buy some bits that I was looking to sell from my Chaos Start Collecting, so that's very nice. Brings it down to about $10 for 10 Chaos Space Marines and a Master of Posessions model, very pleased with that. 9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One of the few upsides to the last 6+ months. Tried painting, didn't go well, and rather than screw up the Dark Maiden, I decided to clean and assemble some new things to work on. Merkillor (old metal version and resin ReaperCon version) and Zoraida the Hag from Malifaux (standard and alternative versions). Have to admit, not a big fan of working with resin, even if the sculpt is better for Merkillor. I am debating replacing the sword with a weapon from the Bones 3 weapon set. We'll see. Just enjoyed a pumkin beer, and the final episode of The Mandalorian. Good stuff.... So was the beef stew in the IP. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sylverthorne 23721 Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 I did a bread. .. actually, I did two breads. One of them will be nommed, the other will be chopped and dried and made into stuffing.. and then nommed. Probably with roast beef. The nice lady who does the Inn at the Crossroads blog wrote cookbooks. The bread came out of one of them... and I'm hoping it'll be good. @SparrowMarie you might want to look her up; when I tripped over her blog, she was recreating medieval recipes. Then she started doing Song of Ice and Fire food, and ... well, then there's now, and I just made a couple of loaves of Mulgore Spice Bread. >.> 13 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
