And.... it's been raining like hell this morning. Fortunately, most of it will miss us.
RB is doing better. Skywise and Moonie got a good amount of kitten milk in him and while he still has a fever, he's alert and moving around.

We're back from town -- obviously!  Grin -- and the disaster of running out of kitty litter has been avoided! We also picked up a few things of the grocery persuasion. We'll be heading for Bloomington on Thursday for our regular grocery shopping. We need to get back into our routine. Routine is good, especially when you're living with autistic people. Spirit is especially fond of routine.

Just found out that unless the supermarket chain where we shop finds a buyer or a partner damned quick two of the three stores in the chain that we shop at will be closed, leaving just one and NO alternatives to Kroger and Walmart. This makes me angry...  Smiley

NOW there's a report that ALL the Marsh stores will close if a buyer/partner isn't found in 60 days! Smiley There are some things we rely on that only Marsh sells -- at the moment at least -- and I'll have to find other sources for them if I can.
I'm hoping that they can find someone to keep the stores open...

RB has been resting in our bedroom all day which he doesn't usually do and just now, he jumped up on our bed. If he wants to sleep there tonight, I'll make myself a bed on the living room floor!

AoS will be on in about half an hour and there's a couple of things I need to do first. Be back after AoS is over and I've  started dinner.

Dinner is almost done.
RB is still sleeping on our bed.
I'm very sleepy but may be sacking out on the floor tonight.
Gonna head out now.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning.
Skywise decided that I was going to sleep in the bed last night. He relocated RB to a large, comfortable kitty carrier for the night. Immediately after being fed his breakfast, RB came back into the bedroom and parked himself next to the bed. He may get on it later. Now I'm going to get caught up and get myself some breakfast.

RB is sleeping and his temperature has dropped a little more. We're keeping our fingers crossed that it keeps coming down.

Afternoon. We're back from the grocery store.
The feisty is strong with RB this morning. He's objecting to everything and strong enough to jump up on the bed. He still has a fever but it is lower than it was so that's encouraging.

It's a drizzly/chilly/cloudy day and it really doesn't feel like spring although everything is blooming on schedule.

Skywise is laughing. RB is giving him the "as soon as I'm strong enough, you're DEAD!" look. This is a great and welcome improvement!

RB and Moonie have been my bed all day -- still are -- and I think that all that "feisty" this morning wore him out. I also think that he may have "spring allergies".

Agents of SHIELD has been renewed for a fifth season. The producers will be reportedly working to reduce the budget which has the "usual suspects" in a fizz. CGI is very expensive and this past season has been CGI heavy with the addition of Ghost Rider (flaming skulls are expensive to pull off) and various supernatural elements not to mention alternate realities -- with the required "alternate" cityscapes -- and much, MUCH blowing things up in ways not possible with practical effects. The previous season (3) accomplished a lot with what was likely a smaller budget and I'm sure that they'll put us on the edge of our seats again. It's NOT about the effects, it's about the story...

Afternoon.
We're back from a run into town. We needed more kitten milk for RB and had to run around town to find some. We didn't get the kind we're using but he'll eat what we got and the Queen likes it too.
We also ate in town so that's out of the way. Now in the process of getting caught up.

We're having hot dogs for dinner. As we were getting out the buns -- which I bought Thursday and were well before their "best by/sell by" date -- were moldy! I had to throw them out. Needless to say I am NOT happy. I don't know if it's the bakery's fault or the store's and it really doesn't matter. What matters is that I paid good money for a moldy bread product.

Afternoon.
We did our usual Saturday errands plus a stop to get more kitten milk for RB. He still isn't eating or drinking and is STILL running a fever. He goes back to the vet on Monday after Spirit sees the dentist and has her teeth cleaned. Yeah, it's going to be a busy morning. Hopefully, the vet will have some ideas about getting that fever to break.

Something weird just happened. Moonie got a copy of the current issue of Martha Stewart's Weddings in the mail. The name and address is right and we're stumped as to how they got it. Moonie isn't engaged and "shouldn't" be on the Wedding Industrial Complex's radar.Smiley

RB ate some solid food!! It was only a little but it's a start!

I heard some scratching in the kitchen which usually means that someone is trying to cache food. I looked and it was RB! I summoned Moonie and we got him a plate of his second favorite food. He wasn't interested in it -- the Queen was happy to have it -- and jumped back on the bed. I got him a plate of his absolute favorite food and that's what he nibbled on. The rest is on a tray under a bowl on the bed to protect it from the other cats and to keep it from drying out. He's sleeping right now. I would imagine that his little tummy has shrunk from going so long without solid food.
