We just air conditioned part of the house. Most homes here don't have air conditioning because of the way they are constructed and it is VERY expensive. We've both retired now and felt it was time to air condition the main parts of the house. We blocked off the extension that is a den and dining room and the cat's room (yes he has his own room). We put in a pet door so he can go back and forth at will. Unfortunately, we don't have the smartest cat around and he was befuddled by the plastic pet door. I squatted down to show him how to go back and forth by sticking my head through then picking him up and shoving him through head first. All was well until I stood up and pulled a muscle or tendon in my groin. It's taking forever to heal, but I guess I deserve it for being an idiot. He got it eventually and goes back and forth at will. Unfortunately, I am still limping around. It's taking forever to heal. Just venting!
Aloha to all of you,
Anne

Re: Stupid Human Move
Sorry Anne. I've done stuff like that too. Try putting some heat on it or sometimes ice is better. That's one lucky cat to have his own room. Some kids don't even have one of their own!

Re: Stupid Human Move
Sorry you pulled a muscle Anne , it can be really painful. Whenever I pull a muscle I take 2-3 acupuncture sessions and I'm back to normal.
Cat is very lucky :) . My dog has it's own room too!

Re: Stupid Human Move
Ugh...sorry about your pulled muscle. Hopefully it starts to feel better soon. I always hurt myself doing silly things. I tore my miniscus just getting out of the car a couple of years ago. LOL It happens to all of us.
Feel better soon.

Re: Stupid Human Move
Feel better, Anne, We "seasoned" citizens sometimes need longer to recover from almost everything.

Re: Stupid Human Move
Bobbie: Good for you!! I'm not writing at the moment, but am thinking about it. I'm trying to figure out a good ending and who I want the killer to be. In the meantime, I am taking internet classes (free if you audit) to keep my "little grey cells" (as Perot would say) from atrophy. My husband has retired and spends most of the day watching sports. Getting older has it's pluses, but any little illness or injury seems to take longer to resolve itself and heal. Good luck with your story and have fun in the class.
Aloha nui loa,
Anne

I did this a couple of years ago. Great stimulus to write.
I did not make it to writing class. It's a long way away - especially since we have moved.
