    Howdy~ Got up at 10 and fed Momo, then went back to sleep until the stroke of noon. I'm sorry to say I only changed my 'cussword' to something slightly milder, but with the same meaning as...

    Nannie slept for 3 hours, which is better than I expected. The last 45 minutes, she wasn't asleep, opened her eyes a few times, but closed them again immediately. She started getting crabby, frowning...
