Birthday Babe

Happy 62nd Birthday Richard Gere. 62? OMG!!! The guy is a major Babe. I wonder if I can hump with him.

16 Days until the camp out.

Follow Up

I picked JL and brought him back home. He's still under the weather. I was supposed to take of his bandages. Pobrecito he couldn't run away. But I finally got them off and he started grooming himself. That's a good sign.

He's still trying to get used to walking. But he's okay. I do carry him to his bowl for food and drink. Then I carry him to the litter box in case he's that disoriented.

He was purring in a low register, but purr away. He's a little better this morning. He's lying in his favorite sunshine right now. We'll see what today brings.

Chif out.

20 days until the next camp out.

Birthday Boy

Happy 81st Birthday Sean Connery today. Okay, he's a babe. I remembered growing up with a crush on him. He's been the best James Bond ever. I want to spread frosting all over and slowly lick it. Sigh.

The Vet

Today's a big day for us. I took Jean Luc to the vet for a medi pedi. The clinic is great and I owe a thank you to Mess for recommending it.

The drama began when I tried to get him in the carrier. It's a two men job, but I couldn't find anyone to help me with it. It took us a total of 30 minutes and both of us were frustrated. But I persevered and was finally the winner. Poor baby, he was meowing some new sound I never heard before, and then I saw the blood where he scratched me.

They just called and updated me about my baby. He weighs 15 lbs and because of that they suggested I just go in for the front paws and the back claws they'll trim, so my wallet is happy. Then I asked about micro chipping and turns out he's already chipped but I would have to call the company and give them info on me.

It's kinda weird not having him around. He's such a character and the love of my life. Just waiting for them to call so I can bring him home.

Chif out.

22 days to the camp out.

Hump Day

Now this is how to spend Hump Days. Hottie Australian hunk, he's also celebrating 35th Birthday today. Maybe if I find a curandera out there, I can get my hands on him. He's made some movies and was a vampire for a season in Moonlight, he can bite me anytime he wants.

Work

I spent today calling insurance companies and my clinic. There's so much work to keep track of everything. I could've watched a DVD but I want to stay in focus of my routine.

Besides, it's too hot to go out and run errands. And those I do early in the day but I do have to be here to get my meal before they take me off the program. But Honey, I'm sticking to it like a glue gun.

Just spoke to Purple 13 and she actually still reads my blog but too busy to leave any comments. At least she reads this and B2 is another. Nice to know I have my fans out there.

Chif out.

24 days until the next camp out.

Birthday Girl

Happy 39th Birthday to B2. She's a great friend from a bad relationship. This wreath is nothing compared to her wreaths but I wanted to find a pic of a wreath for her.

She's fun to be around. I remember once she was crafting away and then she almost glued herself to the wreath. I of course had to say it, but she gets attached to her crafting. LOL.

Anyhooooo, she's part of my support list and I love her in my life.

Chif out.

25 days until the fall camp out.

Insurance

I have been using Humana for my clinic. They decided to not accept Humana and I had to choose another insurance. The office manager gave me some suggestions to choose from. The name Aetna looks like a winner.

HP came over yesterday morning to help me out, he does this all day at work, so he knows what's what. Looks like we found a winner here. He registered me and helped with everything. It sounded a lot like of Humana.

But first, we went to Blanco for breakfast. He ordered chilaquiles which is just fabulous at Blanco. It's a simple recipe but I never get it right so I go to Blanco. It was HP's first time out for chilaquiles and he loved them. Duh, like I would recommend a lousy restaurant.

Chif out.

26 days until the next camp out.

Redundant

These last few days has been scorching hot. I have to do my errands in the morning before the oven goes full steam ahead. Every day seems the same to me.

So what do I do all day you might ask. The answer is nothing. I'm going through a mini depression and I cannot commit to anything right now. I have some DVDs from the library which I'll return even though I didn't get a chance to see them. It's a free-less bother but I'm happy with them.

Chif out.

Birthday Girl

Happy 53rd Birthay to Madonna, 16 August. What can I say about her that hasn't be said before. She's just a great icon.

Ladies who Lunch

HP came over after church. He wanted to check his email and look up insurance for me. I'm currently enrolled in Humana HMO and they will no longer serve my clinic. So I have to find a plan I will be happy with.

But first, we went to La Margarita for some food. There was like a 45 minute wait but we persevered. We did peruse the menu at the bar. We visited but it was too noisy to hear each other.

He had the Acapulco enchiladas which was made with seafood. I had enchiladas mole which I would do any day. I had forgotten how fabulous mole is.

Then we came home and he checked his email and then looked up insurance companies. I just want this to get going so I can get my ass in gear.

Chif out.

33 days to the camp out.

Dermatologist

When I was in Michigan I had warts on some of my fingers. The Drs only froze them and they were a little tender. After my HIV status came into effect they did say the HIV medications were strong enough to eliminate the virus.

I think it was in March or April that I woke up with two warts on my lips and they were a a bother. My PCP Dr M froze them also and gave me some topical meds.

Dr M referred me to a dermatologist Dr T and he was a graduate of UM in Ann Arbor. He saw warts and he decided to scrape them off. He came at me with a syringe like the dentists use. I didn't feel a thing anyway but it did give a burning smell.

I was in and out maybe 15 minutes tops. It's funny to feel where they used to be. I was just glad to get rid of them.

Chif out.

33 Days until the September camp out.

Birthday Babe

Happy 51st Birthday, David Duchovny, Aug 7. This is one of my favourite pics of Hottie.

Caliente!

So I haven't been writing lately, like anybody reads my blog. There's just nothing to write about. The days are in the 100's and I just cannot leave home. If I do have errands or whatever that are necessary, I will go out and make the best of things.

I did go to Wal-Mart today after my meal came by. The meal was yummy, homemade chile with no beans and a vegetable medley and a tiny biscuit. That was enough to hold me over to dinner.

Nothing for now.

Chiffie

Turn up the Volume

Went to see an ENT to check on my hearing. There was no infection in either ear. He also checked my nose for some reason. He did say this was just a sign of old age. Yeah, right, just like my tremors except there is no pill to help me.

Then I sat with an audiologist to check my hearing. Turns out I do need a hearing aid. Problem is, my HMO does not cover this. She did give me a list of local organizations that might help me. I can put this on my emergency credit card, but that would be the last resort. She did say I can always raise the volume, which I already do.

We have to do the lotto and see when we win to take care of things like this.

Chiffie out.

Ladies Luncheon

HP had some appointments one day and he came over to see about moving here. I really do not understand this, but he's making too much money. Anyway, I treated him to a late lunch at the Mexican Manhattan.

Then he came over to surf the net. He's all caught up with the smut I forward him. Of course it's always nice to spend time with my posse.

Chif out.

44 days until the next camp out.
