Howdy from the north forty. ‘Tis been both a frustratin’ and a productive so far. IOW typical irk day. 😃 **gotti** yay on findin’ new digs! **sari** maybe he was one of those raised by somebody who did _everything_ for him. I know several people like that. Seriously never learned or never were taught to do the simplest things. They then expect it all to just happen and are shocked, _shocked_, I say, to find out that no it does not all just happen, you have to make it happen. Or he’s a slob. I vote slob. ok back to irk. ICK! ---

I put clear glaze on 4 more pieces and I did the underglaze decoration on a 5th. Five more to go before I can fire. Whew! ---

We were up late last night and kitten names were flying. Hubby wants “Stevie” as in Stevie Nicks for the girl. I thought it was kinda cute, last night, but no. If we’re going to name her after a singer, it would be Janis Joplin (Pearl) then the boy would have to be Jimi (Hendrix). Does anyone else think we’re over-thinking this? ---

\*\*Nurse \*\*- it took us a month to decide to name our dog Higgs - among other names under consideration were Wanda and Ninja, plus others that I’ve forgotten. Critter naming is serious business. 😃 Supper was mega-yum. I added onions-n-mushrooms to the bill of fare. I’s stuffded, tho later I’ll have room for ice cream and strawberries. 😃 ---

Dindin is et and everything is all cleanded up. OYKW ate and left because he has paperirk stuff to deal with this evenin’, poor thing. I complain about paperirk but I ain’t got nuttin’ compared to what he has managin’ a home health agency. At least, as he says, he can do it in the comfort of his place rather than in an orifice. I agree with that thanks to the wonders of teh intartoobz. Heh. He’s not real big on spendin’ hours on message boards, facebook etc, such as I am prone towards mostly due to the hyuuuuuuuuuuuuuge amount of time he spends managin’ paperirk and so forth for irk. To him, teh intartoobz is a tool for irk more than anything. **Nurse!** I like Pearl and Jimi. I say go for those two names! ---

No, picking a name is a process. It takes time and observation to get the right name. Look how long it takes most parents to be to pick a baby name. They have 9 months and sometimes they still don’t have a name picked out. I called the doctor and I’m not anemic. I’m kind of surprised but happy. Iron pills tear up my stomach, even high iron foods tear up my stomach. We made today pizza day, so no cooking for me. Not that I cook all that much anyway. ---

Irked most of the day. I had a purchase card audit as did all the other cardholders in our department. The approving official or whatever she is called is an Asian Barbie. High maintenance but nice enough. Lucky Louie went today and is now worn out. My baby is getting old. Made sketty for supper. It was ok but nothing to write home about. **nurse**. Are the kitties siblings? They are awful cute. ---

Jimi and Janis or Pearl? Are they particularly vocal? Like strings a lot? How many is 27 in kitty years? Inquiring minds. 🙂 I stopped at the pharmacy after irk to pick up a prescription refill and they told me that I had a script for an antibiotic from a week ago ready too. Whuh? I was at the doctor two weeks ago and had blood work done the week prior to that and doc didn’t say anything about being infected. :o I’m waiting for a call back from the office. Going after irk to the Kia dealership tomorrow and taking a friend who has driven them for a few years with me. Test drive, here I come! Night all. ---
