Biggie and I are adjusting. We had a wild and crazy Stickie session. He's amused himself with various toys and now is on Window Duty. I'm so grateful that he's happy and healthy and such a big bruiser. I suspect it will be a while before I see him come into the room out of the corner of my eye and wonder if it's him or his brother.

My prescription is ready at Costco and my plan was to pop in the car and go get it but... now, that's an issue. Then I get a text saying that I may be eligible for delivery! I click through and YES! but delivery is with Instacart :(. Instacart has long hated me. Well, hated susandennis@gmail.com and today was no different. "Your account is invalid call Instacart Customer Service" and gave me a telephone number that gives me a recording that says we don't answer this phone any more.

PHUCK. So then... I thought, maybe... turns out Instacart does not hate me@susandennis.com! Doesn't particularly love her but doesn't hate her. It took some hefty troubleshooting with the gracious help of seattlejo to finally get to work. And I ordered eggs, bacon and paper towels. I'll be interested to see what, if any, of those things I actually get. The confirm says it will all be here by 5:45. I tipped big. I am very appreciative. Oh and the pharmacy just called to confirm the prescription delivery so yeah!

I sent an email to my guy at the car dealership. Should I get the car revived now? Or when the stay at home order is lifted. If I wait, will my key fob even work? etc. The battery is in a very weird spot (under the shotgun seat's floor) and I'm worried that a regular roaming mechanic might not be able to deal.

But, I'm not terribly worried. Where am I going to go anyway?** And think of all the money I'm saving on gas. ** Assuming Biggie doesn't eat a door knob.

MOST OF ALL

Thank you all so much for your kind words and sympathy. The Smalls belonged to all of us. What a wonderful kitty he was.

I hope instacart works! But beware they don't normally smash up the eggs.

This is what happens when I don't check in with Livejournal often enough.

My heart sank when I read your last sentence because it could only mean one thing.

I am so, so sorry. Your pair always delighted me when I read your posts and saw your pictures. I knew Smalls was not well, but losing a furry loved one is always incredibly painful.

I am so sorry to hear about Smalls. I thought they were both doing great. But you did give him a loving caring home for his short life. They leave a big hole in your heart when they pass, don't they?

I still think about my long ago deceased cats. Sad, but lots of good memories as well.

Did the delivery arrive safely?

[susandennis]

It absolutely did! It was impressive. Especially after such a bitch of a start.

Hurrah!

I haven't been able to find paper towels at ANY of the stores that are open.

I know how hard it is to say goodbye to a beloved pet. You are a good person to give that little guy a good home, knowing what might happen. I’m glad that you have Biggie to help you recover from your loss.
