Sorry I didn't blog much last week. My poor Gizmo was sick all week. We started noticing a problem on Monday night and I spent most of my time on the internet trying to figure out what it was with no luck. We finally took him to the vet on Thursday, found out he had a UTI on Friday (do you guys know how hard it is to get a urine sample from a cat? Because now I know), then had to take him back on Saturday for a shot. He actually handled the shot pretty well but he really hates being in the car and being at the vet in general, and was extremely vocal about his disapproval the whole time. I still have to give him oral antibiotics twice a day as well, which is very hard and I now have a wound on my hand to prove it. He does seem to be getting better, though.So this week I'm hoping to get back into editing. I just have to take the plunge and start doing it. Even if I just get a few things fixed every day, it'll be worth it. I actually don't think I'm going to do NaNo this year--the fantasy story I had in mind still needs a LOT of planning and I don't think I'll get it all done in time (I still haven't named the characters!). Plus I'd rather focus on editing if I can actually get back into it.
I'm hoping to get a book review written for Friday's post. We shall see. If not, then I'll definitely be back on Monday to let you know if I got any editing done or if I failed miserably.
You now have some insider information to add to your next story. I'll read it if only to find out how you got that sample and the cat's response.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about Gizmo. Glad to hear he's on the road to wellness, though. Editing isn't my favorite thing, so I can definitely relate to that.
ReplyDeleteSick pets are never fun. :( Good luck w/your editing!
ReplyDeletePoor Gizmo! Glad he's starting to feel better!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you might not be taking part in NaNoWriMo this year. Of course a WIP is more important so I hope you get your edit on.
ReplyDeleteAlso hope Gizmo feels better too.
Sorry about your cat! Pets always seem to sense when they're at the vet; my childhood dog would always try to run out the door whenever we took her to the vet's office for a checkup. Maybe you could mix his medicine with his food, so that way it might be easier to get him to take it?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry Gizmo was sick! I hope he gets all better soon.
ReplyDeleteSome weeks are crazier than others, eh? We have to do what we can to get by.
ReplyDeleteOh poor Gizmo! Hugs to you both, and good luck with editing :)
ReplyDeleteHope your cat gets well soon. :) Best of luck with your editing! Keep it up!
