  1. I must take my cat Katie to the vet in the morning. Today I found a small lump behind her left front leg. I am praying that it isn't anything serious!

  2. Chili has been simmering several hours now. Just made the cornbread and put it in the oven. I think I am going to have a good dinner. Anyone hungry?:)

      Everyone is always welcome. The chili and cornbread turned out really good.If only we could just transport to each other to visit and share great meals and other things!

      It' s ok, I'm still alive and uneaten. The chili and corn bread sounds good though.

      Glad to hear you are OK Chicken0895! There are leftovers today - of chili and cornbread of course! :)

  3. Sunday -trip to ER via ambulance for me. This morning a very sick Katie to Vet Hospital. Not a nice start to the week. Hopefully we will both recover and she will be stabilized enough to come home tomorrow afternoon. Those 4 big firefighters and paramedics scared the poor baby and she never calmed down. Just got herself sick. :(

      Thanks to all-*Hugs*!

      I get to bring Katie home in about 2 1\2 hours! I know she will be spoiled for quite awhile. I just hope she continues to be OK! She is such a sweetheart. :)

      Katie hissed twice at me but now that she is home she has decided to lay in her cat bed in the living room and let the sun shine on her. I am going to read some threads here and then we will be lazy for a few days!

      Good to hear you are both home and hope you'll behave (at least til you both get well, ok?) ;D Read, relax, enjoy Katie's company. Biiig hugs, Kate!

  4. I am thinking about finally installing TS2 on my computer again. I will do it from the disks. I am still at the "should I or shouldn't I" stage so I am asking all of you what you think?

      WM - Thanks for the reminder. I had it on Windows 7 before but will need to read to remember how to change the Resolution again. :)

      There is a thread about it in mischievous machines about taking pictures that will help.

      Katelinjens

      I am going to re-install TS2 but maybe not this weekend due to other things happening. I am looking forward to doing it and start over making the sims and their houses. :)

  5. Yesterday evening it rained. Sometime during the night it snowed. This morning the sidewalk and parking lot were all bumpy ice. A dangerous skating situation. Who decided it was time for Winter weather? :(

      Nice! I went comfort food with roast and potatoes with tea. Temp is starting to nose dive here.

      Comfort foods are great and I love potato salad.

  6. Hey it is 91 here and it was supposed to rain with a Thunder Storm and cool things off and clear the air! Where did the rain and storm go?

      Its bitter sweet.we need the rain too, just not the terrifying, OMG that hit right across the street, streaks of lightning. LOL But then again, I do live in the lightening capital of the US! Random Trivia Fact: I thought we were the lightning capital of the world, but that dubious honor goes to Rwanda, Africa, of all places.

    3. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Not fun at all. I did see Lightning strike across the street once. I was at work. Our building shook and the flash of lightning was so bright. The building across the street was immediately smoke and flames. Luckily no-one was hurt. Do NOT want to see that again.:(

      Well the sun was shinning a bit today. Still when I opened the door to go get the mail I could smell the smoke. At least it is less and we haven't gotten anymore ash since Tuesday. The rain WILL arrive,. Just wish it arrived yesterday! Still having some sun means some smoke has cleared out!:)

      that's awesome! I'm glad. :)

  8. I am excited about winning third place in the contest but a bit sad because my cat had to go to the vet today. Katie has kidney disease which treatment is going pretty good. However I knew last night something wasn't right. Poor cat has a bladder infection as well as some kind of intestional infection. I have to give her 3 pills a day for 10 days now. It is hard enough to get ONE pill down her but THREE every day? I will manage somehow. I just want her to get to feeling better so she can.

      I have cat nip. Crush pill into food? I should see if I have any tuna. That is the only people food she is allowed once in a while. Should give it a try. Thanks!

    3. Cabelle

      Cabelle

      Does she eat treats? There are these pill pocket treats that sometimes work with cats. They're made by Feline Greenies. Though cats are super smart and ornery so she might eat around the treat and spit out the pill.

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      I never heard of pill pocket treats. With her kidney disease she is on a pretty strick diet. I could check in to those treats though. Thanks!

  9. I don't know when it happened but I just realized I have a pretty new icon picture-not that I minded the Platinum one but this new one is pretty nice. :)

  10. I have all of the TS2 disks, the list of order to install the disks and the patches but am I ready to install or should I wait until the weekend?

      Kate do you have snow yet we do. Keep yourself and Katie warm.

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      We really don't have much snow. It just snowed an inch or so after it rained and the temperature dropped.It was quite icy for a day but that is gone now. It is warmer but still a bit cold. I am OK with that though. I hope you all will stay warm! :)

  13. My cat Katie is in the hospital tonight to be evaluated and I really miss her. I hope she can come home tomorrow!

      Katelinjens

      Thanks, Red! Maybe it was the pool boys who had a redecorating party in my room while I was gone! :)

      Thinking of you, Kate!

  18. I leave for the hospital at 7:30 a.m. in the morning (7\2) for surgery. I will miss all the fun going on here for several days. I just hope that my two pool boys will remember me when I return! HA! I look forward to all the catching up I will need to do! :)

  19. I think I should be more quiet now. That is all!

      Thank you Blue, Fire and Kimi! This level does look quite nice. :)

  20. I guess I am joining Jenn because my game totally bit the dust yesterday. :( I am working on getting it going but I am not sure yet what saves can be saved! The huge house I was building has to be done over. I hope The Asylum Castaways are safe since they hadn't been touched for a while! I am not happy with TS3 right now!

      Sorry to hear that Kate. I hope you'll find a lot of undamaged saves.

    3. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Thanks Mich. The Asylum Castaways seem to be fine so that is good. I plan to play a test world for several days before I get back to them. All other saves are sad to lose but can be redone easily enough.

    4. Kimi

      Kimi

      I really hope your game behaves itself now!

  21. I did not get a certain phone call yesterday so I am not a happy camper because I have to report for Jury Duty bright and early Monday morning. :(

      Katelinjens

      That is of course what I thought. Sims always need new things. Wait - what AM I saying?

  23. OK! Where did my favorite pen disappear to? I just had it a few minutes ago. :(

      I asked Katie if she took my pen. I swear she looked at the monitor! I think she was telling me I left it at the Asylum - HA!

      michalien

      LOL kate. It happens to me with me cigarette lighters, all the time. Then I yell to my wife: "Where did you move my."

  24. My cat Katie had a day at the vets.  Started out as vaccinations, blood work and grooming. Since she is now going on 16 years old it made me nervous. She ended up needing a lump removed from behind her left front leg. She came home about 2 hours ago and is pissed at me but I am thrilled to have her back home!

      Thanks, Nixicole, Nellas and TFM!  :grouphug: Katie is grumpy right now but I think she wasn't ready for out-of town company to visit for a few days.  They go home tomorrow though and she has been pretty nice.  She is such a sweet cat!

  25. Just a quick hello to everyone!  I am still working at getting health issues cleared up or under control. I think about all of you each day and pray everyone is doing well!:grouphug:
