The days become the walls you never wanted

( I finally arranged a bodge to allow Cassie in and out without letting dogs in )

There's a loop of elastic cord round the door-handle and hooked round a screw in the door frame, the video tapes are holding it open and there's a laundry basket the other side of the gap. Cassie can get round it easily enough but it discourages Spike.

( Cassie is much happier about not being shut in )

I finally got through to the pharmacy - same phone number - and the girl who works there not only found my pills but she is bringing them here on her way home at lunchtime!

I can't express how profoundly grateful I am for that. I'm in the sort of state where I can barely imagine riding on a bus without having to hide under the seat. I can manage the hospital because I don't get a choice about that but it's become very difficult.

Passionate bright young things

( Today was a big day for the OMFGKittens )

They can walk now instead of floor-swimming, and Callette and Shona have been introduced to Spike. They didn't care - all the kittens have been smelling the dogs on me all their lives so Spike was just part of the furniture, but he nearly burst!

I didn't take pictures of the introduction, but I will when it's all a bit less new and scary for me. Spike was on his best behaviour, holding his breath, not moving a muscle though his whiskers and the tips of his ears were vibrating with pent-up excitement - but when I took them for a walk right afterwards he gave me the very best full-on rollercoaster shark-fishing barking steer-roping alligator-wrestling Spike experience in his power. Aww!
