NYC Day 2 & Potter
Shots from around the Met Museum & Guggenheim on 5.Jan.2011.
We dropped Potter off @ the hospital today - she won't be back until Sunday @ the earliest & we won't be able to pet/hold her for more than 20 minutes/day for weeks after that. But they say there's a 95% cure rate for hyperthyroidism using this radioactive iodine. Andy insisted on looking @ the cats up for adoption as we left - I always feel so sad walking away from those animals - while well cared for @ Angell - esp. the gray & white one named Bob who was Potter's exact counterpart - though male.
Didn't feel much like practicing when we go home - to our catless house (at least for awhile) - but the piccolo arrived from _its_ stint @ the repair place so practice a bit I did, just to see if everything was copacetic. It seems to be playing much better - the repair person basically took it apart & treated it as if it were a brand new instrument. So I'm hopeful that _at last_ the thing will stay in adjustment for more than a few months. Fortunately she said it was still warranty work so I had to pay for neither the 3-hour repair nor the shipping.
Back in the deep freeze today, but they promise mid-50s by Friday - entirely _too_ warm for Feb. ask moi.
