Hi there little bots. Well this past
week I thought I would sneak off to my parents house for some early
birthday festivities. I received some cool gifts and not so good
news but let us focus on the good stuff first.
The good part of leaving town was that I
missed all the May Day protesters. My god those people (when I mean
those people I am targeting those in the "anarchist" group) need to be arrested on the spot. for the past 3 years now they had their "protest rally" where it really is an excuse to cause property damage for businesses and personal property.
This year the cops did a decent job of wrangling them and keeping the
damage to a minimum. Even so, the vast majority of people who live
downtown and Cap Hill are so sick of having to coordinate our lives
around these punk kids (which a majority are not from Seattle but are
bused in from Portland and Vancouver BC) who don't have a message and just want to cause trouble. I say the city needs to put into effect that you need a permit to march if you are going to disrupt traffic. We are sick and tired of these idiots marching without a cause, disrupting traffic, damaging property,
and being overly violent towards people on the streets and police. Get a
job and move out of your parents basement you dumb ass children.
I left home Tuesday missing some
networking events but I'm kinda frazzled out of networking and being
social for the time being. A nice surprise while I was away was the
gorgeous summer time weather that happened for three days. Highly
unusual for Washington to be in the 80's in the spring time, but we
will take it! The only down side to this weather is the yard work
that is compact into two days so you can be ahead of the curve. Not
fun to mow the lawn when the grass is so tall it stops the motor.
Supper frustrating!
My mom and I went out shopping and
enjoyed my my birthday week. The presents I revived were awesome,
some fantastic jewelry, cloths, and books, but the best had to be the
facial. I've had facials in the past I highly recommend everyone to
go get one at least once or twice a year to clean out the pores.
Sadly towards the end of my visit my
mom's last cat was taking a turn for the worst. She was 18 years old
and has been in poor health for the past year. My mom brought her in
from the outdoors 6 months ago so she could be more comfortable
during the winter months and at that time weighed 5 pounds. Mom
tried everything to give her more weight but in the last few days
before my mom had to make the call she completely stopped eating and
was drinking minimally. We took her in to see if there was anything
wrong to cause her to stop eating, her tests came back with a bladder
infection and kidney failure. That is when we found out she only
weighed 3 pounds. We took her back home and weighed to pros and cons
of doing a treatment for the track infection, but came to the
conclusion that in her current weight and having 0 body fat, she was
barely on reserves as is and to try to fight off the infection might
kill her any way. So we decided to do the humane thing and put her
down peacefully.
That was the last of my mom's cats and
one of the few childhood pets that I have left. We still have the
horses but they are reaching their old age as well.
Goodbye sweet Molly the barn cat. You
were the best mouser we could ever ask for.
Wiping away the tears now, so how are
you? This week I received my dress for catbug, I am going to attempt
to dye polyester and hope it turns out. I think I will be doing a
photo log of my process and have it up for you bots on Friday.
Finders cross that it dyes and it isn’t blotchy. See you Friday
for my attempts at dyeing fabric!
See you on the other side
