Just hanging in the backyard, blogging while I keep an eye on my kitty. Nosey loves coming outside. He's the only cat that comes out all free and easy, without a leash or stroller. He sticks pretty close to home. Compared to the others and I think most cats in 
general, he's relatively slow so even if he does try to broaden his horizons too much, he's easy to corral.
The neighbors two doors down like to play music loud while they're hanging out out back; I don't mind. Anyway, it sounds like the grandparents have control of the radio dial tonight bc it's oldies night. It concerns me that I know so many of the songs. Now, I do have some excuse in that I couldn't help but learn a whole mess of old ditties when I was at the nursing home (as a volunteer/employee, of course, not as a resident). I used to know so many pop songs and used to be able to name the titles and artists of so many one hit wonders without missing a beat. Beat? 'Heartbeat (It's a Love Beat)' by Tony DiFranco & the DiFranco Family anyone?
It's so nice to be outside on a great day...the sun is shining...the neighbors' lilacs' scent is wafting by on a light breeze.... I caught a virus last week and I holed up inside until Monday. Nothing you can take for a virus, though the doctor did suggest Claritin-D to manage the symptoms. I took one today; meh. How do people who use it regularly for allergies afford it? A pack of 5 was $10...that's $2/pill! Sad to say, it appears I may have regifted my virus to Kevin.
Moving along...watching CNN's coverage of today's primaries. Wolf Blitzer having a field day in THE SITUATION ROOM (dun dun dunnn). John King playing with his map. Talking heads talking over around each other. Why am I watching this? Click.
Wait! Off to hear what Hillary has to say.
We can't comment on Claritin-D, but the medication in regular Claritin is available in generic versions for something in the range of a tenth the cost of the name brand.
Check the ingredients, there is likely a cheaper combination out there.
