It's Monday!!!! Sending extra strong healing vines today to Jupiter and hope the new vet can take care of his foot. Also sending healing vines to Doogle and any others who need them. Cheers for Hardey, Lucky, Nikki and Sammy on their OTJ trials!!! Paws crossed for Oliver!!

Our normal morning is I T/F/S baby girl and feed the boys....on the catio, of course, because they prefer al fresco dining. Then I get my coffee and we all sit out there and I read my book (precious few moments just for ME!) and they enjoy the critters. Well, this morning, exhaustion just overcame me and I went b2b for the first time in months. The kitters were all still on the catio when I laid my head down. Within 5 mins, I hear the LBG characteristic Hey mama!! I'm here! 'Sup? as she hopped over me. I opened my eyes to see her staring intently at the sherpa and I knew within seconds, she would be fixated on kneading it. But that only listed a few and she curled up next to me. Then...lo and behold....here comes Tobey (who we actually refer to as the "stripey fish cat" because he is our only Mackerel Tabby). He plops down next to me on the other side. AND THEN!! I hear Gus's soft little "chuff". I sat up and looked and he had made himself comfy by the condo. So maybe they just like being with me and I'm not just the servant after all? :lol: :lol:

As I expected, a bounce last night but it wasn't as bad as I had feared. She did go up fast but then stopped, levelled, came back down this morning so I think today will be a slow slide back to greens. Hope so.

I am starting CrossFit training today. I must be out of my mind. :roll: :roll: :roll: Have a great day!

That's so cute all the kitties joined you for your btb. I hope Gracie clears her bounce soon.

Re: 8/5 Gracie AMPS 176 +2 191

Sorry about the bounce, but at least you got some sleep last night. So sweet on the gang of three sacrificing their lizard watching to be with their mommabean. I hope you napped well.

Oh, and I think you are crazy for the Crossfit. Here's a quote from the Crossfit Vancouver web page, the bolding is mine:

NER: The end result is that CrossFit gives you a Neuro-endocrince Response

Neuro = Brain & Central nervous system

Endocrine = Hormones such as Testosterone, Human Growth Hormone, Insulin like growth factor :shock:

Response = the response from your body by taxing it to its core with variety, intensity, and multi-joint, full body, functional movements.

Make sure you test your own BG's. :lol: :lol:

Oh! Marje! Sounds like a lovely way to go back to bed - AND to find out that you are not just a servant after all at the same time! Nothing better than kittie snuggles! I'm jealous as Tashie hasn't done that in a while ...... but our
"schedule" has been so "off" since her diagnoses - I still hold hope that she'll come on the bed again! Maybe *I have to go back to bed so she can ... now, there's a thought!

And, Eh, Cross fit training? Really? WONDER WOMAN! Impressed! Like REALLY impressed! ohmygod_smile

So happy to see Missy G come down slowly and flatten into a lovely green surf!!!

I SURVIVED!!! That ended up being a 2.5 hour cross fit training session. By the last squat, I could barely get up and I have strong legs :lol: :lol: :lol: We both tested our BG when we were done because he said the training will drop BG and I had to eat a peach and a protein within 10 mins. My BG was 72; his was 105. He was impressed I had the equipment to test BG :lol: :lol: :lol: But here's this big, ripped trainer and he couldn't stand to poke his own finger. He even turned his head and winced :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok...now I have to eat for real. BBL

Re: 8/5 Gracie AMPS 176 +2 191 +5 169 +8 84 +10.5 83

Did you give the trainer a treat afterwards? :lol: :lol: :lol: Maybe some nice bit of chicken protein?

Nice :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Gracie!

Oooh, next time, ask him if he'd prefer an ear poke! Or tell him you'll check it, but then pull out one of Gussie's harpoons. Have fun with that!
:lol:

Sounds like kitties thought the btb was a great idea.

how funny on your trainer...

Hi Marje & Gracie,

What a day you've had! First snuggles with all your favorite homies - what better thing is there!?!

Then training - well, I have to say I think it's great that both you & Gracie are in the :mrgreen: :mrgreen: today! Glad to see Gracie's cleared her bounce & is back in healing space. Wish I could get Tigger to read her SS & see how it's supposed to be done!

HA! Big Twainer afwaid of wittle needle poke...... ohmygod_smile
