Naptime!!

Today has been a busy little day, which started at 8:00 this morning (so much for Saturday morning sleep-ins). I had Thing 2's and Victor's neuterings scheduled for yesterday, but since the roads were so bad, I rescheduled them for this morning. Thing 2 is the last of the Kentucky glider rescues that I had taken in who needed to be neutered. Victor is my own pet (son of my BooBoo and Meg, who will be a year old May 10th). So, I dropped the boys off at my vet's office by 8:40, and went on to McDonald's and then to Crispie Creme to treat the family to some morning yums. By the time I got home, I got a call from the vet's office (which was kinda scary, since I had only just dropped them off, it seemed), and lo and behold, the boys were out of surgery and ready to be picked up, and they are doing GREAT!

Well, not wanting to let a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit get cold, I had breakfast first with the family, and then I tended to my in-town errands: post office, stores, which involved returns and exchanges, and then, I found this PERFECT fleece pattern for St. Patrick's Day at Joann Fabrics! WOO! I just had to tell my buddy, Sugeebaby what I had found, and I squealed with delight as I told her that I bought all they had because I needed to get all of my cages re-decorated (six large cages against my living room wall serves as the room's focal point).

She laughed, and she told me that I should have gotten Easter colors instead, and reminded me (procrastinator-supreme that I am) that I would probably never make it, but to give me a "fighting chance" she offered me a bet (you all know where that gets me... remember that Ohio State vs. University of Michigan challenge from last year, lol)...

So, here's the deal: if I can get my cages ALL done before St. Patrick's Day, my darling Karen, Ms. Wolverine-Supreme will ABSOLUTELY wear my Ohio State colors at the next gathering we have... and if I FAIL in my grand effort, yours truly will be sporting "them thar Michigan blues" -- little ol' me dressed in Wolverine blue and maize...

Well, now, that makes this weekend's projecting a little more interesting, and gets me a whole lot more motivated. Right now, I see that each of my little guys is back in his own little rehab/temp cage until I see that all is well, and I have to say that Dr. Tharp does a fabulous job with providing top-notch care for my gliders. They look great, and since they seem to be doing so well, the ol' lady is gonna take the afternoon off for a little snooze, 'cause I need one, but as soon as I wake up, I'm grabbing my rotary cutters, blades, and my cutting mat, and I'm going at it FULL STEAM AHEAD!

Ain't NO WAY I am gonna get caught dead wearing MICHIGAN BLUE!!!!

GO ME!!!
