Good Morning LL!!
(the kitteh barista, Mannie, is right on today - good stuff!), and Happy Sunday.
LL beans! It is I!, Mannie, kitteh barista! For today I proudly offer Mannie's special 10 hour energy coffee, AND Triple shot Cappuccinos with extra foam for all! Mannie the kitteh barista insisted. And for all his fans: a Venti quad Irish cream infused white mocha, with hazelnut whip, garnished with caramelized nut clusters and white chocolate shavings.... OOOOOOOOOOO!, PRIMO! Only the best for all my customers....OH! Tea infusions too, by request. they is primo! I SWEAR! Today: vanilla almond!
I know I wrote this the day before, but it still holds true: THANK YOU EVERYONE for your well wishes for Mannie. We are still truckin', taking one day at a time. An U/S has been set for this coming Tuesday, in an effort to see if we can determine any underlying conditions that were not indicated in his recent labs.

Things remain about the same with Mannie. We get a few licks of the gravy fuds, sometimes he will eat some, sometime not. Overall he simply does not feel well, though he did a few things yesterday that were encouraging. This morning he did come to visit me in the bathroom while I was getting ready for the day - something he hasn't done in several days. I talked with his vet yesterday, and we both have agreed to continue with the plan as is, and see what the U/S shows us. I have that set for Tuesday. Perhaps it will reveal any underlying conditions that were not indicated by recent labs that will explain his apparent nausea. In the meantime I will hopefully find a dose that will keep him in better numbers, taking into consideration his lack of eating. I am prepared to assist feed if needed. Not the best thing for him, as it stresses him out something fierce - fearfully stressed. So far it has not been needed. Mannie - here's to you, some very strong feel better vines. Lubs ya big guy! cat_pet_icon
Things are semi-well in MannieLand. Yesterday afternoon seemed better than the morning, or so I would like to believe. He was a bit more mobile, came and sat with me for a while. The rest has been spent sleeping: either in his bed, or with the nanner stash. Even feeling as rotten as he does those nanners still hold a special place for him.
Like the day before, we had SUN, and he did manage to spend some time in a sunbeam or two. He seems very content then. Here's hoping that all will indeed soon be well in MannieLand. Paws crossed.
We are.... not quite normalcy in MannieLand.
Have a great day everyone! It will be catch up day here, all that I didn't so yesterday..... We are still very cold here, but the days continue to be sunny and bright. I would like to get out on a trail again today, might even go to a swim meet where a friend is coaching (didn't make that yesterday....). That would be fun - love the swim meets.
Hey everybody!! What a party last night for Molly - WOO HOO!!!! It was kinda cool being able to just supervise, and I MISSED ALL THE COOKING! It was good of you guys to let me cook at least one! heeheehehe.... you guys are the bestest friends ever. I think I feel a little better today. I promised my bean though that I would e cool, and lay low, so maybe we could hang out on the radiators, or you guys can come to the treehouse. What'd'ya think? You IN? Let me know - I am ready for anything!~~ Mannie
And completely OT: here are some photos taken yesterday from my woods hike - frost was so abundant... I suppose we all see it during the course of our winters, but I enjoyed these photos, so thought I'd share a few. here too is the FB link: Frosted Images
