SNOW DAY! (yesterday)
Jan. 29th, 2009 01:35 pmSo yesterday most of the country had a wicked snow / ice storm. I, of course, had two appointments scheduled. Luckily both people called and canceled. One of them is a weekly appointment that we're just skipping this week and will be back in swing for next week at our regularly scheduled time. But the other was rescheduled for today at 4:30. I already have an appointment at 2:00. But my therapist told me that if any of her appointments after my med check (at 2) were canceled, she'd slip me in so I didn't have to go back and forth to Riverbend. She said she'd just tell my nurse if the appointment changed, so I won't know till I get there the first time. But it would be definitely nice if her 2:30 canceled so I can go right from my med check to my counseling appointment. But knowing my luck it won't happen. O_o
On a better note, I've been looking at craigslist.org to find a cat. I've found a whole huge list of ones I liked. But there's one I really like, even without a picture. It's described as a blue bi-colored Snowshoe, male, very affectionate. EXACTLY what I'm looking for in a cat. I looked up the Snowshoe breed in this cat book I have and Snowshoes are the cutest! They're a cross between a Siamese and a Birman, and a Birman is close in looks to a Ragdoll! It's so cool. Anyway..... I told my mom that my birthday is in almost a week and I want a cat for my birthday. Her response was something like, Now that's something I can do. So hopefully I'll be getting a cat soon. Then maybe I won't be so lonely in my house by myself. It'd be nice.
I just want you all to know, that this is not me not caring about Logan. But we knew when she was about a year old that she might have a shorter life span b/c she had a pretty moderate heart murmur; although that is not what took her out. We lost our other cat three years ago this April. For the past two years I have wanted to get another cat for Logan to be friends with. When we lost MnM, Logan started having bad separation anxiety. We could go to the neighbors' for just an hour and when we got home she'd just meow and meow and meow and not leave us alone, which was bad b/c she never liked to get picked up or petted much so when you tried to do that, bad things happened, if you get my drift (ie: biting). But it was worse after MnM died. I think it's b/c we got Logan when she was 8 weeks old. She went right from living with her littermates to living with MnM for 7 and a half years. I think it was traumatic for her. Also, I watched Logan be put to sleep. It was almost like instant closer. And I think 9 years of worrying that I'd wake up one day to find her dead from her heart condition sort of helped me prepare. Like I always knew I wouldn't have long with her. I still miss her and sometimes still look for her. Last week when Mom & Mike dropped me off after our dinner out, I came in the house, took off my shoes & coat and put my keys away and then went to call out "Baby!" only to realize that if I did, Logan wouldn't come running. So yeah, it still sucks, it will always suck, but I need someone to keep me company and someone I can love and heal my broken heart.
