It’s a busy day here in the CatBox.  Store to Door is delivering groceries, and I have to unpack and put them away.  Tomorrow my hospital appointment is later than normal, so Wendy will be here first thing in the morning to give me my shower.  Then I dress, and we head to the hospital in the blizzard.  I hope to return mid to late afternoon, at which time, I’ll be completely exhausted.  Portland is under a Winter Storm Warning with 10″ or more of snow forecast to accumulate between now and Saturday afternoon.  Tomorrow expect only a brief Personal Update.  I’ll try to add a home safe comment when I return.  Have a great day.<\/font><\/p>\n
