thursday

My cat, Mr. Bojangles disappeared 2 days ago.
Boyfriend said the raccoon's probably got him, or a car.
My heart was broken. The worse part was not knowing. Thinking about him out there somewhere
injured, cold, and slowly dying was heart breaking. All I wanted was for him to be back home.
Last night I couldn't sleep. At 3 AM
I wrapped up in a blanket and went to my front porch.I was hoping kitty would be there! Boyfriend joined me.
We heard a meow that sounded muffled and far away. It was coming from my neighbors garage.. So I walked over to their driveway and called for kitty. There was definitely a cat in there meowing back at me. They have a couple cats but I just knew this was my cat crying out, scratching even on the garage door. So I stayed on our front porch until 7 am when I knew the boy next door would be leaving to walk to school. He came out the front door at 7:04.
I told him I thought my cat was in his garage, and asked him to check his garage for me. He reported that he already checked his garage yesterday when he heard that my cat was missing. I'd already decided I was going to call the police if they wouldn't check their garage. But fortunately he reluctantly agreed to check again. Tucked away in the far corner of their basement area I could hear kitty crying........he was hiding behind a large pile of stuff but came out when I called him.
I was so happy I could barely contain myself!..............................Mr Bojangles ran to our front porch and then into the house when I opened the door.
I just look at him and feel such relief that he is OK, and such happiness that he is safe and home.

Boyfriend is doing so/so. He had 11 days of nausea and vomiting and sleeping most of the time. Then he accidently double dosed his medications and passed out on the living room floor. I called 911......went to the ER where boyfriend then remembered taking his medications twice. They ended up keeping him over night to keep an eye on him and to re hydrate him. It's his week off of chemo so he's doing a little better. But right now he's not sure he wants to continue the chemotherapy. So we will see...........

Yesterday was daughter's off day. She came over and we hung out.........watched a movie and had dinner together.
It was nice.

Boyfriend wants to pass out 20 one hundred dollar bills to strangers over the holiday season. It's on our bucket list. So we're going to the bank today then coming home to fill the money holders. I won't tell anyone about it other than on here!
We'll see how people react.....looking forward to it!
