Cat is still ill. The blood is gone, but he still throws up (now every day!), but it seems to have less impact on him. He throws up once and then goes on playing and eating we're really confused what's wrong with him. Even the vet is surprised. It may very well be an option that it's just part of him. We can try other food, but there are so many different kind of foods that we don't know where to start. The other cat is super healthy and they're both used to having food all the time (they don't eat more than they need), so changing food for 1 cat means we have to change a whole lot. Worth it if it works, but even the vet says it may not be worth the extra hassle/esp for the other cat. But we'll keep trying. Driving us crazy and tired though. __________________

Hmm, the cat got a diagnose! Pancreatitis Inflammation apparantly. I didn't totally get it, but the vet explained it to us in numbers. Most cats have a number around 3.0, while Rox was more around the 11.0 Poor cat. It's harder for him to process fats, so the advice was to give hime some new food. That advice came last thursday. Since then he hasn't thrown up yet, though we are sure it will still happen and I realise we're totally jinxing it now.
In other news: my book is nearly done, only a few pages left. Then a final read through. And we have sinned. After promising each other that we wouldn't visit the States this year we booked a trip to the States two days ago We'll be in NYC from 9 to 16 September. We had originally planned to do a city trip in southern Europe, but we both started talking about NYC on the same day We realised we both really wanted to go. Saving is going better than expected, so it was doable. Decided on September, because of the weather, but also because we wanted to be in NYC for 9/11. There will be special memorials and they'll be playing with light in the evening (where the twin towers once stood). It's called the tribute of light. Some people find it strange that we'd want to be there as tourists, but that day didn't just change the USA, it also changed the rest of the world. It's not like we'll be standing there with a big laugh, you know? Of course the flight already gave us issues We are flying with United. Never flew with them before internationally. They have a whole page where you can fill in your API information (passport info, place you'll be staying, etc), but every time we try to add something the page doesn't save the filled in info. Asked about it on tripadvisor and as far as I know it's a glitch. I shouldn't worry according to them, they promised it could be fixed when checking in online, or at the airport. Mailed United just in case. They tell me to let it go and not to worry, but that's just not who I am I need clarity, I need to fix these things asap, etc. How are you doing Carla? __________________

And somehow they should do more to celebrate the lives and deaths of all the soldiers who got killed in the never ending "conflicts" in Afghanistan and Iraq. They were there because of 9/11 (under that pretense anyway) but nobody wants to call attention to that. Not as good for PR. Quote:
I'm good Ingmar. A bit busy but my ladybug will be here tonight. Just over the weekend but it's been over a month and last time was mostly me being there for her with her mom's emergency surgery so it was not exactly romantic downtime. Any weekend plan? __________________

Jos hasn't read it yet. I'm a perfectionst, I want it to be completely done once I show it to him. He'll be the first one to read it though. I agree that they should do more for the soldiers who are dying all over the world, because of 9/11. Happy to hear that you'll be together again this weekend. Hope the romance is there this time, but I'm sure it will Enjoy! My best friend has his birthday on Saturday, so we're going to that. Nothing planned on Sunday. We were invited to Jos' dad (father day), but once we mentioned we already had big plans on Saturday and that we wanted to relax a bit (a sick cat kills your night rest ) his whole family came down on us (that sounds dirty - not intended) with a major guilt trip. ''The entire family is here.....'', ''we were really hoping to have the family complete for once, especially on fathers day...''. We didn't respond. If there's one thing we both have issues with is not being understood (they always seem to be judging us and our situation) and being guilt tripped. We even offered his dad to visit another weekend, but they didn't even appreciate that. We'll probably watch Despicable Me 1 and 2. Got them on 4K this week and with part 3 releasing in the cinema later this month...we want to be ready. Never seen them before. __________________

I have 2 cats myself, they're 8 and 9 already, but still drive me crazy sometimes with their games Which is funny, because they're not really friendly with each other and kinda compete for my attention all the time: one could sleep on my lap and the other would just punch her to make her leave and take her place instead I know some people believe cats are selfish and only need you to feed them (not pointing any fingers ), but with these two I see that it's not true, and it's not just wishful thinking When I return home after being away for some time, the first thing I do is give them food, but they don't start eating straightway, and instead they follow me everywhere around the apartment, even to the bathroom And purr And I prefer to think of them as independent rather than selfish Quote:

And as Obama said, it's easy to have 85% or so approval when you control the country's media, have journalists killed and jail political opponents. Oh, and that is the strangest interview I've seen in awhile Taking Putin's answers at face value, because "why would he lie?", what are you, a teenage fangirl? "Putin has his own interest of Russia in mind" - right, the same way Hitler had Germany's interest in mind. Meanwhile, Russia Day (a national holiday) in a nutshell:
Spoiler:
I could kinda get it if the intention was to show that he's just a human being, a creature of our political system, and not some boogeyman or the center of the world's evil, but that doesn't negate the fact that he benefits from the system that was created around him. It doesn't matter if Nemtsov was assassinated in the center of Moscow by his order (which I personally don't believe) or by his buddy Kadyrov's, or it was someone else's initiative, the fact that it can happen 100 meters from the Kremlin, or that a journalist that criticized the government (especially 2nd Chechen war) could be killed on Putin's birthday (Anna Politkovskaya), and people who ordered it are still unknown/not disclosed speaks volumes. And let's be real, him criticizing the US is not about exposing the problems in the world that he wishes to solve, it's all about the power play and his imperial ambitions One must be really naive to believe that he's all for for cooperation with the West. Stone apparently didn't spend a minute watching our TV or reading our papers, because it's all about the whole world being against us and 'our way of life' and our traditional values (whatever the **** that is). It was Yeltsin who was often criticized for the "cooperation" with the West, among other things, as it was seen as weakness, and with Putin now we finally can show the world that we're the force to be reckoned with, and doesn't matter if we suffer economically in the mean time, it's more important to care about things spiritual than mundane John Oliver had a good piece about it btw

Your cats sound cute Right there with you, they need a hell more than just food and a pet here and there. It's always super obvious that the cats missed us and they're incredibly happy when we play with them. Quote:

Jos actually decided to go there anyway (for his dad - not the guilt trip - tho I'm sure that played a part in his decision, I know him - he just doesn't admit it ), but when the cat had a relapse on Thursday he decided to stay home anyway. He hadn't told them he changed his mind, but when he called his dad on Sunday....well, the call didn't help matters. Jos even told him we really wanted to come on another date. His dad just answered with a ''yeah, we'll see'' and hung up on him. Ah, well, family issues. Everyone has them. You know for yourself unfortunately Quote:
God yes, it's way too hot these last couple of days Ugh. Good reason to visit the cinema, we'll be doing the same we can stay there for the whole day if we'd want to, but even for us there's a movie/show limit per day Quote:

I'm still on the fence about Moss. The part is so complex, I feel like anybody would have gotten great reviews from it, but she's just too one-note. Quote:

Having a twin must make it easier, yeah. Good for you! I'm just happy it's going okay with my own sister aswell. No contact with my father and my mum died, so she's all I got. For a while it seemed like I was getting great in-laws, but they changed their colours very quickly Damn, that's hot. Here we're complaining with 27 degrees inside. No airco, or anything though. That said, it's easier to handle the heat in this apartment than it was in our old one. Progress! Have fun at Wonder Woman I guess Will Alexis be in S2 aswell? Don't know how her story wrapped in S1? Hope she returns. She deserves the platform to prove she can do more than just joke around in Stars Hollow I'm glad she is getting slightly more attention these days. I get what you mean about Elizabeth Moss. Some parts are written so well and easily that anyone can play them properly. Well, not everyone, but.. Ah, a few hours later now and I just read: http://tvline.com/2017/06/22/alexis-...ffred-regular/ Yay! __________________

Spain seems out but we're checking Italy and Portugal this weekend. France would be an option but with the heatwaves we've been having for 2 months and then July and August to go through, chances are we'll get to our vacation with an empty pool so There are water restrictions after prolonged heat and it's totally understandable. Water is a commodity we take for granted in the Northern Hemisphere but it shouldn't be wasted. Still, that's not what we're aiming at when renting a house with a pool How have you been, Kate? __________________
