Somehow, it got past me. Didn't re-edit the blog, and it didn't publish at midnight.
Two of the kittens are still sick. Battling ringworm, too, but i think we have it on the run, finally.
Most of today will be spent with the ironing board. Ugh! Sweetie owns over 40 dress shirts, and even though he has plenty in the closet, the ones that aren't ironed are piling up. It's time to unpile them and get to where i only have to iron 2 a day, plus a pair of pants, to keep up.
The laptop is getting ill again. Not sure how bad yet. Seeing if a virus scan and a couple of other things will help.

*Birthday of Emperor Haili Selassi I -- Rastafari
