Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for February 23, 2012

Good morning. Where is everyone?Lindz.coop You made a comment yesterday about yarn. I have the same problem except mine is with fabric. Sometimes I think I could open my own fabric store.

I didn’t know Vivian was a pointer. ;-)Good morning, serenasakitty, Aaron and Susan!@serenasakitty – you’re up early. Don’t we normally see you later in the day? I haven’t gotten everyone’s schedule down yet…Hello to GsMom, Billy, KFG, gmforde, rgcviper, lindz.coop, hendelca, Mona and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!

good morning, everyone

Not surprisingly, Cathy won the “I’ll pick you up” wackiness from yesterday. Changed her outfit 11 times before settling on that shade of gray and that shade of pink no doubt. Wait for it . . . eye roll

Morning Susan when you arrive. Hello Mona love that cheery greeting the past couple of days. :-) Hello serenaskitty 7:00 is a bit early for me to be here even when I’m home on time. Home on time is an ever-changing thing.

lightenup I woulda been here about the same time as you, ‘cept I was in the kitchen making large pots of beef stew for dinner — one for Billy and me (and some of the ‘kids’ from GU or GWU who’ll come by and have dinner with Billy) , one for my fire company. I thought about making lasagna but I don’t have enough brain cells to tackle that on a weekday. gmforde probably nearby while I’m taking my time to work on my comment. If not, hello when you arrive :-) Time to sleep for a bit.

That dog is SO funny!!!……My dog always sniffs me when I come home……not sure what she smells though…..lol…..my scrubs are 90%cotton and 8%polyester 2% spandex…….Cathy must be REALLY glad that dogs can’t talk, she’d be SO embarassed (sp?)…….Good afternoon everyone here today :)……….‘see’ you later :)

Getting ready to head out to work. Going in a bit early to warm up our stew for dinner. Eating it while still warm is another trick entirely. Hi KFG and hi Mom! if you come by later. Sorry I’ve been bad about greetings lately.

Test results came back today. Overall I’m in fine shape. The nerve conduction study showed what I expected it to; that I’m losing nerve sensation in my legs and left arm. CMT is a progressive / degenerative illness, so nothing surprising there. Ever onward . . . :)

A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing …

Hello, everyone.

While I often wonder what my very smart, very funny, very talented dog is thinking when she does some of the interesting things she does . . . I sincerely hope she doesn’t know anything about that regarding me and her “daddy”! While she may be about ready to turn 10 years old (that’s 56 in people years), we’re still trying to keep her “innocent” for as long as we can!!!!!

;-)

Cathy changed clothes 11 times for her big date with Irving . . . and this is the best she could come up with?!?!? Now that’s just plain sad.

Good evening, Aaron, Dr. Billy, lightenup, K.F.G., Susan, rgcviper, Mona, lindz.coop, serenasakitty, hendelca and all the REST of the “Cathy” fanatics joining us here tonight. Good to “see” you all!

We’re discovering that LMB isn’t so much into smells as he is knowing Aaron and me well. I’ve already mentioned he sits on the bottom stair in the a.m. waiting for Aaron. Aaron said that he sits by his supper dish when I’m supposed to be coming home (and he doesn’t wait long). And I’m about to say 2 words that’ll make him take off like a bullet for bed. At the moment, he’s lying near my chair, giving me eyes.

Okay folks, and LMB, I’m done [Enter] LOL, like a bullet. That is soooo cool.

Hi Cathyites — it is hard to believe that Cathy would obsess over what she wears to meet Irving — he wouldn’t notice if she showed up buck naked. At least the dog notices.

Wish the news was better Aaron, but it’s good that you know how to savor the health that you do have, and that you’re able to consistently perform a very physically demanding job that you obviously like!! Keep up the good work!!

I just want to say hi to all of the cathy nuts out there and have a good night.
