Tapeworms!

I got my cat into the vet's today. She has tapeworms. She got a single pill to cure it. Now I need to keep her treated with Revolution to keep her from getting fleas (which is how she got the tapeworms) and other worms. The doctor didn't think it likely the kids would have tapeworms too, but I'll try to call the pediatrician tomorrow to make sure he agrees. Aiming a flashlight at their anuses while they sleep holds little appeal, but I'll do it if necessary. I don't even want to think about how I'd check myself for tapeworms. That's just not a task I'd want to share with anyone. I certainly hope the baby doesn't have them.

It's cold and rainy today. I'm so cold I just ate a bunch of milk chocolate chips. Being cold makes me eat a lot, and I'll pick all the wrong things.

I was on the phone with Mr. K's office person today. She's still in a fog from her surgery, but she's bored out of her mind and hopes to be back in the office Wednesday. I'm sure I'll still have a lot of her paperwork to do since she'll be functioning at a level far below normal, but I'm glad she came through her surgery okay. I finally got off my butt this morning and ordered flowers for her, but they are supposed to arrive tomorrow.

Mr. K is still at work and it's almost 7 p.m. Unless he's in the habit of working late or he tells me first that he will be, I expect him home by 7 p.m. I'll probably wait until 7:10 or so, though to call him to find out what's up. I'm sure he's got a lot of extra work since one of his two technicians is answering the office phone now instead of working in the field.

The kids are fighting so I need to go.
