Whew! Well, those of you who follow me on Facebook know I left a rather cryptically worded post a couple of days ago, to the effect that Wednesday had been a bit of a roller coaster ride.

Cats are driving me crazy, and it’s a short trip!
Well, howdy, pardners! First of all, let me give you the EXCELLENT news that Pumpkin Spice, who last week we were convinced was lost forever, decided to pop back into existence from that rip in the time/space portal she'd disappeared into the previous week!

After the week I’ve had, I’m just happy it’s not up even more!
Yeah, my weight's up again this week -- 203.0 -- which is almost as much of a gain as last week's was a loss! Still, given the week I've had, I'm just happy it's not even higher.

Please stay six feet away from this blog, thank you!
Ah, what a difference a week makes, huh? Last week at this time, most of us were still going our merry way, tra la la, a little worried about this whole coronavirus thing, but y'know, I'm sure they'll work it all out, nothing to see here, mate!
