Yay! November 16, 2004
It’s a little after 6:00, and my husband is home. I honestly can’t remember the last time he was home this early. We actually get to eat dinner together tonight. Amazing. The arbitration for the case that he is working on was scheduled to go through Saturday. However, the other side petitioned the arbitration panel for more time, and they granted it. So, now they will not reconvene until January 3rd. It’s good in that he actually gets to stop working all hours of the day and night but bad in the sense that it’s not over. Now it’s dragged out into next year, but I don’t care right now cause my hubby’s home. (Although he’s currently in the bedroom playing on the PS2. At least we’re in the same zip code right now.) He’s still got to work a ton, but at least he’ll be home for dinner every now and then.
Salvador is continuing to get better. He’s eating and drinking completely on his own now, and his personality is starting to shine through again. He’s back to playing with milk rings, tormenting his sister, and helping with everything around the house. It’s frustrating that we don’t really know what was wrong with him. The more that I research online though, the more that I suspect we’re dealing with pancreatitis. It’s hard to diagnose, and there’s no real treatment or cure. I have read that feeding your pet a low fat diet can help prevent future episodes, so I think we’re going to have to try to find a low fat cat food that the furballs will tolerate.
So, things are looking up. Salvador’s getting better every day, and my husband’s big case is on hiatus. Now if we can just get this baby making thing figured out, I’ll be over the moon.

Amanda, I’m so happy that you get your husband on some evenings now! I know how good it feels when your husband comes home in time to eat dinner with you. Although my husband’s job is an 8-5 kind of job, he’s usually hanging at the office tidying things up or talking to the boss about new work until 7:00 or 8:00 p.m. Whenever I see him before 6:30 pm, I am just the happies camper. So I really understand how you’re feeling right now. :)
Also, happy to hear about your little furbaby’s progress. I hope it continues on this path and he will be back to his old self. Have a good night.
