So This Is A New Thought???

Today the Beast looked at me and said in this voice that seemed to say...we can't put this off any more....that he HAD to take Baron into the vet.  Oh, really?  Like I haven't been saying that for a few months now?  Like I haven't been looking up information on the internet AND watching all these vet shows and talking about what I have seen and read?  <<Thud>>

He said that last night, Baron suddenly got up from laying down, and being asleep he thinks, and let out a cry of what could only be pain.  He said he got up and made an attempt to comfort him and stroked him all over but didn't get that pain yelp from him from any of it.  I think that part scared him more than anything.  It could be something internal that has nothing to do with the tumors but there's just no telling.  The tumors (at least the bigger ones that are almost in a line) HAVE to be removed.  He not only looks horrible but it cannot be healthy.  I'm glad but we still have to wait and see if he actually does it.

I used some rub in conditioner on my hair this morning and let it stay on most of the day.  My hair has become incredibly dry over the past few months.  It may be the weather or my sweating but it would only get worse during the winter with artificial heat and low humidity.  I DO color my hair but haven't been doing much of that lately because I really don't go anywhere.  It might, of course, just look that way to me because I have more grey in it than I have had before but I will never tell!  I will be coloring it just before I go to Chicago, of course, because I AM just a bit vain.  I wish my hair were silver like my gf, Jamie's is but it's an ugly blend of colors (and I cut off all the dyed part of my hair a couple months ago so it isn't that causing it).  

I looked for a while like I was losing my hair (and I was) but it's growing in nicely now but is still shorter than I would like it.  I will have to go to the beauty shop and see if the beautician there can at least give me a decent cut so I won't look too bad to my gf's when we meet up for our reunion.  I would love to get my nails done but there's no possibility of that happening.  Everything is just costing too much and it's the Beast that is the spendthrift, not me.  

At least his trip to Florida was not an expensive one this time.  He really didn't spend a whole lot (and he bragged about that!).  Not like when he stayed with his sister last year and came home loaded with clothes and other things he bought while he was gone.  Of course, she loves to shop so I am sure she influenced him but I kind of think that it might be a family trait with them and he didn't need much persuasion.  Even on her FB page, she will bring up that she is going shopping here or there and show where the store or event is located.  *Rolling eyes*.

The Beast has me a bit scared lately because I keep finding him on his computer looking at cameras.  New cameras and different from the ones he has.  It's been years since he bought his best one, of course, but lets be real.  He may be taking pictures for other people (like he's going to be taking pictures at two weddings at his church in the coming months) but he has a hell of a good camera, great lenses and talent.  He's not going to be starting a photography business so let's get real here!  

My bff went and sent me more Kauai coffee even though I told her not to the last time.  I know she has quarterly taxes she had to pay and she's been supplementing her sons due to health issues and one who has a business that has some bad seasonal months.  But I suppose sending me the coffee makes her happy and is probably the cheapest *gift* she is giving.  I dearly love that woman and I wish she were healthier and younger, too.  She has a wonderful husband who also has health issues but they love each other dearly and try to take care of each other.  I think it's so adorable and sweet.  

We used to play together on this one online game site and spent a lot of time talking with each other and with other friends we had made online.  But she either wasn't doing well, healthwise, or else was so personally busy trying to get things done that she was just too damn tired to get online at all.  I understand but miss talking with her.  I still go on the game site, just not as frequently, because I have a few of those friends that I will talk to and play games together.

Well, it's getting to the time I need to think about taking my shower and getting ready for bed so I will say good night.  Love you all.  I hope your week goes well and that you stay healthy and happy.  ***Hugs***
