Friday & sad news

Today I woke up to my alarm, watched some Angel and got a phone call from mom. She hadn't wanted to tell me when I was alone and since they didn't know much, but that Sabrina has become very sick and they were taking her to the Hope Center for a sonogram. I heard from mom a little after 3 pm. Sabrina, my beanie, either has lymphoma or FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) - both fatal.

I am completely devastated, and torn apart. I decided I would go home on Wednesday to be with her and everyone for the end. It's just horrible this happened so suddenly. Sabrina is so young, only 4 years old and we've only had 3 short and sweet years together. I feel so helpless :(

Since the cleaners were coming tonight, I had to clear everything out of the house. I had a hot dog for lunch and spent the rest of the day packing and running things over to Denise's house across the street (where I will be staying). I was completely out before 6 pm, when the cleaners showed up. I ran to the Acme and bought some bread and bologna and some comfort chocolate. I came to Denise's and we ordered Chinese food from Cape Orient. She, her son Todd and I all ate dinner. The Chinese food here is just so good, better than at home!

Then in the evening Denise and I walked Todd's sweet dog Nala around the block. I went to the house to dry my towels and checked out the house - very, very clean. I talked to mom and grandma Genie. I'm looking forward to seeing them on Wednesday. I came back to Denise's and we were watching some of Randy to the Rescue on TLC, but we mostly ended up chatting. We came up to go to bed.

I came up to my really nice room and took a shower, unpacked a little and settled in. I talked to grandma Zelda and to mom. Tomorrow I am working at Bliss from 5-9 pm and I can't wait! My first real official job!
