My poor sweet Babs. She has lately been driving me to distraction. I have tried to be patient with her, but her eating habits are about to get the best of me. Sunday night she was awake until 2:30 a.m.; Monday night it was 3:30 . . . I was really tired on Tuesday.
Tuesday afternoon, I went to get a manicure. I was gone an hour. When I came home, I didn't immediately see Babs. But as I walked into the family room, I noticed the phone had been pulled to the floor, and Babs was lying on the floor between the couch and the table. I quickly went to her and discovered that she had tangled herself in the power cord and could not move. I suspect she fought it for awhile and then just resigned herself to laying there until someone could come help her.
It was one of the saddest things I have ever seen. I extracted her from the cords and stood her up. She just stood there for about 5 minutes. I put her outside to walk around, and although I know she was not hurt, I think she was exhausted. She did not eat, and she slept through the night. Not exactly what I was looking for to get a good night's sleep.
I can tell she is better today but she is still sleeping a lot. I think a McDouble is maybe what she needs to get going. At least I am going to try it!
