Weekend on the Couch

I wasn't prepared for what happened Saturday morning. A slight stretch before getting up turned into an extremely painful muscle spasm in my left leg that was so bad I cried out. Ray jumps up and runs over to my side of the bed to see what he could do for me. A quick rub and me standing up was all it took to ease the intensity of the pain, however the soreness remains even today. My weekend was spent on the couch, on the heating pad off and on. Trying to get to the bathroom was a chore and I looked like a pirate walking around with a peg leg. Not fun.

Ray did make us some peanut butter cookies that evening. Keep in mind that Ray doesn't like to cook, nor does he want to learn, but with my encouragement, he gave it a try. I have to say those cookies turned out great! I ate more of his cookies than I would have had I made them!

The cats took turns snoozing on the couch with me as the TV droned on from one show to another in the background.

Speaking of cats..."Penny" brought two more kittens with her onto the deck this weekend. They're two beautiful red, tabbies that look to be about six weeks old.


There's no way we're going to be able to keep them. They wouldn't be here if Penny hadn't disappeared before her spay appointment at the vet a few months back. But here they are and we're going to have to find homes for them too.
