They called and asked me to bring her in a little earlier. She's been there since 10:30. I can't settle, on anything.
This morning, every time I woke up, I rolled over and went back to sleep, trying to spend as much time in bed as possible, to delay the "Not feeding of the cats". The last time I forced myself back to sleep was about 8:00 and I dreamed about Tolly
.
The dream was extremely convoluted, as dreams are, but the Tolly part was very clear, I was taking him in for a dental, but (without going into dream details) I was sitting on the outside step of a house (not my house) and Tolly was under the bushes across the yard and I called to him to come because it was time to go. He ran over and jumped right up on my lap and I was stroking him and telling him about the dental. Right in the middle of that my conscious mind intruded and I woke up thinking "wait a minute it's not Tolly, it's Mazy going in today."
It was 8:30 and I stumbled blindly out of bed still thinking about Tolly. After minute I woke up enough to think about the dream, and I tried to see if there was any kind of ominous message, but aside from the confusion the first part of the dream had brought on (nothing to do with the cats) there was no feeling of anything bad happening. So I concluded that Tolly just came by to remind me that he'd been through this type of ordeal many times and always was fine, and Mazy cat would be too.
I hope.
I also hope she is under right now getting it all done.
I can expect a call anytime between 12:30 and 2:30, so I was told. (they wait until she wakes up from the anesthesia to call, I think)
Thank goodness I took this day off!
Thank you so much for waiting with me you guys. It helps a tremendous amount to know you are out there, thinking about us.
