Framing Guilder

Dear John,

 

Today has been about pipe dope and roundworms - just a normal day around here.

 

I did take it easy this morning. My tummy has settled, but I'm still dealing with a fibro flare. I slept in, got the laptop and paid bills, and snuggled with the animals until almost noon. After breakfast I went to the hardware store and got sink supplies. I installed the drain and would have finished it, except that the T-piece that I have won't work with the rest of it. I'll go back tomorrow after work and see if I need a new T-piece or if I can get an adapter. It isn't difficult - it's like a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle.

 

I took Maggie in for her three-month check-up. She's doing fine and growing like a weed. She's up to 3.9 pounds. June thinks she may stay small, maybe get up to 6-7 pounds. That will be an interesting contrast to Hunter, who must be over 15 pounds now, and Abby, who is not far behind. She does still have roundworms, though, so I have medicine to give her tomorrow. But the local tapeworm infestation is over, thank goodness.

 

I'm heading to bed soon. I'm going to try to take good care of myself for the next few days. I have a long, busy schedule at work, a sink to finish plumbing, a fibro flare in progress, and Guilder to frame for it. I'm swamped.

 

Love you buckets and buckets,

Joan.
