Good morning LL,

Allowed myself to sleep 15 extra minutes this morning...could have used 4 extra hours. Since the school year began, I have made some really stupid mistakes. Mistakes I have never made, loads of things I have forgotten/forgotten to do, etc. I know there is a phenomenon called "Mom brain" to describe the forgetfulness, oddities, etc. that occur to moms (especially of newborns). Well, I have "Mom Brain" and I really want to tell my Principal that to explain some of the dumb things I have done, but something tells me that he wouldn't quite understand! Oh well. Today is a State inservice day, so I will spend an entire day doing paperwork in my office! BLISSFUL!!!!!! My friend is coming in to work with some of my students (voice lessons). I'm praying that I can get caught up on some of my paperwork & choose music for the Holiday concert. Which means that I should hurry up and get gone!

Shasta is ok this morning. Got some purrs from her, she's eating well, peeing, still not much poo (other then the little bit from last night - stopping by CVS to get some Miralax). Still keeping my fingers crossed that the new vet can help us figure things out tomorrow.

Ok, I'm off to run a few errands and then to my office! Hope everyone has a fantastic Friday!!!!

Hi Deborah - have a good day, and good luck with the paperwork! It's always a relief to get a load of paperwork done and off your desk. I just told someone yesterday I feel like I have a newborn! I gave a practice presentation yesterday and my brain was mush, tripping over words. I know exactly how you feel. We all get FD Fog :lol: Hey - I like that! I'm going to start saying that ... I have FD Fog!

I'm at CVS and looking at the Miralax, but all I see is the powder. Is that what I should be picking up?! Do they make it in pill form?!
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=240; +1=256; +1.5=214

Hi guys ... yes, miralax comes in a powder form and you mix it in with their food & extra water .. I'm sorry you are having "mom brain" but I know what you are saying! Hope you have a relaxing day and a great weekend!
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=240; +1=256; +1.5=214

I totally understand "mom brain." However, it seems I have it worse now with the fur kids then I did when my son was little. Maybe it's because I am a little older. :lol: Have a great paperwork day! That sounds heavenly for you. At least there are no meetings. :lol: Have a great day Deborah!

Oh and yes it is a powder. Just whip it in with some extra water and her food.
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=240; +1=256; +1.5=214

Miralax is a powder, like Devon said. You mix 1/8 of a teaspoon into food and add water or mix it first in a little bit of water and add it to food.
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=240; +1=256; +1.5=214

We all have "mom brain"! :lol: :lol: Dont worry!
Come down Shasta, blue is better! Sending LB poo poo vines to Shasta!
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263

Oh my...an 1/8th of a teaspoon?! How in the world do I measure that?!?!?! Did I mention that I'm not much of a cook! :lol:
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263

do you have a set of measuring spoons? :lol: there is usually 4 in the set and the smallest one is 1/4 teaspoon.

I just sprinkled a pinch on myself since we just barely need it and then mixed it in the food and then mixed water. It works that way too.


And when I started getting 'mom brain" long ago, I found a t-shirt that had the word blonde in crystals and the word is upside down
so I can read it myself. Just like this hat.

I decided I'd rather let people think I was a dumb blonde instead of that I'd completely lost it. ;-)

Be sure and let us know how the vet goes tomorrow!!
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263

Sometimes there is a 1/8 teaspoon measure too. Paws crossed for the miralax and the vetty visit.

Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263; +2=178

YAY...I actually do have 1/8 tsp measuring spoon!!!!!! Yippee! Now, how often should I give her miralax?

Oh, and she did leave me an ok poop in the LB tonight! I bagged it to take to the vet's tomorrow, but I feel certain it will be too dry for them to use for a fecal sample. Hopefully, this miralax will help push a little poo through tonight and I can get a fresher sample.

Rhiannon - that hat is hilarious! I need it for a few of my students, too!!!! :lol:

Liz - thanks for the paws crossed...we'll need 'em! Fingers crossed and toes crossed are welcome, too!

I'll give you guys all the vetty details as soon as I get home!!!!! Is it strange that I'm nervous?! :YMSIGH:
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263; +2=178; +3=129; +4=95

haha...the vet's office called and left a voice mail for Shasta...to remind her of her appointment tomorrow morning at 10am. Are you joking? Don't even pretend to say those words out loud! The last thing you want her to know is that she has an appointment!!!! UGH! :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Re: 10/12 Shasta PMPS=263; +2=178; +3=129; +4=95

they did NOT leave her a message!! for heaven`s sake they should know better than that!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

you're doing great deborah, i`m just so glad you have a good vet to try out!!
 
Nice to see Shasta in her almost nightly greens!! I hope the miralax works. Poor little girl.....last night you got personal, tonight...icky stuff in her food.

Hope your inservice day allowed you to catch up and maybe get home a tad early to rest. GUESS WHAT???? It's FRIDAY!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I know!!!! They did leave her a message! I mean, really...I even told them that she's evil and they still call to forewarn her! Silly hoomans.

As for the good vet, that shall be seen. I'll let you know after our appointment!!!! :smile:
 
Marje,

I did get a lot of work done. I need about 3 more days just like today to actually catch up, but it's better than nothing!!! As for Shasta, she is becoming a bit more tolerant of the evils I keep subjecting her to...I just wish she's be as sweet as your Gracie when it came to vets. :YMSIGH: Oh well, I wouldn't trade her for the world! :smile:
