A quick update before falling asleep

[sylvar]

Had a great time with everyone we visited. We're back in Atlanta.

Pandora, who used to be Jodi's cat and now lives with my dad, absented herself for several days while we were sleeping in my dad's house, so as a last resort he moved us to the house next door (also his). With a few ad-hoc improvements, it turned out to be pretty comfortable.

Our cash flow seems to have improved to the point that we'll be able to take Pied to the vet. I have some bills to take care of before I'm very confident of this, but it seems like a pretty sure thing.

We're going to spend the next few days cleaning the office and working, and then we'll relax on New Year's Eve (hopefully with zanna_voodoo and hubby) before returning to the previous schedule.

We spent the last four hours of the drive having a great talk about what we're hoping 2008 will bring. We're both interested in getting our bodies and accounts into shape and more deliberately dedicating time to reconnecting with each other, and we've already come up with several ways to do each of those things. So I'm finishing 2007 (barring a more detailed travelogue, which may eventually follow) with the wish that each of you gets as much out of 2008 as we're hoping to.

Sounds like a nice trip and a great conversation :-)

I hope your coming ear will be the best yet for both of you. *hug*

Also? For Pied. What's with her that she needs the vet? Problem or checkup? Either way, glad she can go...

Pied has a so-called rodent ulcer. We've been treating it with 15mg prednisolone daily, but that's by prescription, so she at least needs a refill. Probably a good time to make sure she's all caught up, too.

Here's hoping 2008 is better than any of us ever dreamed.
