Cats, Jax, and the Plastic Princess

It's Monday and we're back on the wagon again. (Weird choice of words. *shrugs*) Sharky's off to work, feeling a lot better than he did on Friday and Saturday, thank goodness.

Gabby dog has a weird swelling underneath her right eye. I noticed it first on Saturday, it was small and just made her look like her face was lopsided. I poked and prodded it and even stuck my finger in her mouth to see if it was a tooth problem. She never winced, whined, or showed any sign of discomfort. It has consistently gotten bigger and now it's making her eye squint. She still is not showing any pain when I touch it so I don't know what it is. We really cannot afford a vet bill at the moment, but it doesn't look like I have a choice right now.

Have a lot of errands to run today.

1. Call dentist to find out when Petunia's appointment is Wait, just found out, it's in 2 weeks
2. Call Bug's school to find out when we can pick up report card and drop off his previously missing, now found book
3. Grocery store for lunch supplies
4. Library? *fingers crossed*
5. Post office? Nah, I'll just mail posties from home and save the gas. Sending a PCX to Finland today
   

Hurricane Bertha is our first named hurricane of the year. Most likely will aim for Bermuda but we're gonna hear a lot of "Big Bertha" jokes until she poops out.
