Hi All, Well, it has been a weird few days. First of all, I am having extreme trouble with my new email. It goes out, it double sends stuff, sends me triplicates of stuff and all other wonderful things. the other trouble with it is that I am completely hooked on having such a fast hook up. sigh. The kids are doing ok. Ever since I was so sick last month the ferrets have been dealing with it. It is making the rounds and two fat ferts, Ranger Rick and Freddy Kreuger has lost around half their weight. Now they were very very fat boys to begin with, but I did end up isolating them and babying them for some time. Even the cats are dealing with very snotty noses and watery eyes. And wheezing. Just like ma. But it looks like everyone is doing ok. Rick even begged for raisins today. We also had a murder two doors away from me. Blocked off my street and had all kinds of patrol cars everywhere. This is not a normal thing for this town. The guy was loose for some time after it happened too. It has me upset and a little worried about how the neighborhood is doing. But this was a domestic dispute. So I am hoping it is an isolated thing. Very freaky though. So I am slow with my email right now. It comes it late, when it does and I am also on a support list for folks dealing with others that have a personality disorder. That list generates around 70-80 emails a day so my box gets full, fast. If you have written, hang in there, I should get caught up in the next couple of days. I loose (i.e. tend not to see) a lot of personal email in between the list posts. hugs to all, givethemferretieskissesfromauntiemaggie [Posted in FML issue 3075]
