Next week is going to be a bit intense at my day job – overtime will be the norm, not the exception for at least three days. One day will be 8am to 8pm, then the next will be 6am till 8pm, then up to be at work by 7am the following day. I will be spending one night at a hotel up the street from work to save the commute time. This weekend was supposed to be an intensive writing weekend, but today has been so far spent at the vet’s with three sick kittens, one in critical condition. We’re hoping the little guy will pull through, but it’s time intensive. We’re also bottle feeding one of the other babies ’cause his nose was so stuffed up he couldn’t find his mom’s milk dispenser via smell.
So I’m taking a break next week from blogging other than my Monday post at Fatal Foodies and a short post at my new group blog Make Mine Mystery, started by Morgan Mandal. I post at Fatal Foodies every Mondayand will be posting at Make Mine Mystery every 1st and third Sunday (tbc). Look for the Den to be back in action next weekend!
Note: Since writing this, we lost our little sick boy… he fought a brave fight, but his lungs weren’t strong enough and he slipped away in his sleep a while ago. I can definitively say I lack the necessary detachment to be a truly effective foster parent. This just hurts so badly…
