AMPS ... a staggering 597

Good Morning! I am *dying* for a special super espresso something from Mannie this morning. Pleeeeeease Mannie guy, help Leo's poor Mamabean! I'm on 4 hours of sleep, and I must work and then travel home with His Majesty the Royal Fartness.

Leo spent yesterday sliding down from his bounce...and just kept going...

My error - I did not get either a +11 or a +1, and did not realize the speed of his slide when shot him last night. As such, I didn't give him a carb booster dinner. And when I saw his +2 71, I wasn't as aggressive with the food as I should have been. THEREFORE, Leo got full, too soon. For the first time in recorded history, Leo refused food. I had to syringe Karo into him. Sigh. I messed this one up buddy boy, and now we have a bounce extraordinaire. 83 to 597 in 4 hours.

Leo was/is just peachy. Last night he played, snoozed, zipped around, rolled off the chair, sniffed at the back door, chased invisible bugs, and batted my toes under the table with this paws (with slightly extended nail...errrr). Now he's beside me, nudging me with this tail, because I *forgot* to give him breakfast. I only got 1/2 a Cerenia down him and waiting for it to melt a little. Pleeeeease no puke-o-ramas for today's trip.

Accepting all wake-up and no-pukus vines today! (And sending vines for all beans and kittehs in need.)

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Morning Lisa and oh my, I caught up earlier with your pj condo and what a time you had getting Leo up. Sending mega wake up vines for you and no pukus vines for Leo. Espressos will help you today. Leo, come down from that number, but no dramarama today. Sending be safe vines for the drive home. Try and take a nap before driving home. Sorry, acting like a Mom. I know how I am when driving tired.
Leo, be seeing you soon; save some of that gravy and karo for me, sis Mags

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

My oh my Leo. What a dive and spike you are having. And now poor mamabean is tired and beating herself up (you could not have known Lisa so be kind on yourself!!!! You know our little guys feel our stress). Hopefully the trip goes well and Leo, your highfart, is up for an adventure! But, just in case, paper the car to prevent upholstery cleaning. :lol: :lol: :lol:

consider yourself :YMHUG: :YMHUG: :YMHUG:

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

"Wake UP" and "NOOOOO Pukus" vines heading your way, Lisa!!! Be safe in your travels, and Leo - feel free to bring that 597 down just a tad, 'K?

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Wow - he does bounce, doesn't he confused_cat
Hope he slides down nicely today and your trip is a good one.

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Afternoon Lisa, and mr "I win with the highest and lowest number" Leo
Prayers and good trip vines to you. Have a very safe trip with NO pukus...and give that sweet one a scritch from me!

Leo - dude- we're down here... come on, play with us. oliver
Take good care, drive safe, get a nap..do these in any order as long as drive and nap don't overlap
mary and oliver

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

HI Ann - yeah, it is! Hopefully Leo will come down some, but not enough I have to worry. But the car ride will give him stress BGs anyway. I know about the nap. I am leaving by 3pm, so I won't be driving late. That would be worse. Thanks mom!

HI Karen - Boy, I'm surprised the meter didn't read HI after that! I hope the trip is better, he did get a little Cerenia in him, but not a full dose. I pee-padded most of the car. I hope I thought of everything! Most important travel tools: 1) 2 rolls of paper towels, 2) big garbage bag, 3) many pee pads, 4) wipes. Anything else is optional. :lol: :lol: :lol:

HI Amy - thanks for the vines! He better be down when I get home shortly and get ready to go!

Denise - yeah, Leo does it in style. Trampoline boy! And I hate that, because he "earns" reductions doing this, which I don't think he really deserves, since they are often the first greens we see after settling into a new dose. Thanks!

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

OMG so sorry about the high this morning, that stinks about him refusing food! When Scrabble would drop low I would feed him small amounts at a time. Hope things get back to normal over there, I am sure they will! Have a great day!

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Wow, you certainly had a wake up call last night, no need to do it again today Leo!!! We all learn the hard way, you'll spot those dropping trends from now on! (Uh huh, yeah right, I never make the same mistake twice! ohmygod_smile )

Have a safe trip and definitely a nap before hand. Got to be sure you make it home w/ your precious cargo!

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Leo definitely has a very healthy liver! :lol: But you did call the bounce and the timing works for you. Sending lots of no pukus or other unwanted bodily fluids outside the LB vines to you and Leo for the trip home.

You're probably ready for a top up now -

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

I hope you and Leo made it home safely without any "drama". At least the bounce means he shouldn't be low on your trip home.

Re: 12/6 Leo AMPS 597

Oh wow - we are home. It was a good commute! Due in part, because I got 1/2 a Cerenia and then he wouldn't eat or drink all day, so there wasn't much to come back out of him unexpectedly! Just some poopies right at the start of the trip. Yay!

Thanks Wendy - yes I sure needed a topping off - an entire can of Starbucks mocha coffee something-or-other. Whew!

Hi Ann - yeah, I generally do a +11 or a +1, and what caused me not to do that this time, when I should have ... I don't know. No nap, but caffeine. If I don't leave at a certain time, I can't leave until very late because of rush hours at 3 large cities I have to contend with. But my precious baby is home!

HI Michelle - yes, we do the small amounts, too. But he got most of his dinner before +2, so I could only stretch the 3rd dinner out so far. I've never had him get full before. Eeesh! Stinker.
