Habba: My client & I wish to pt out Ms Carroll can sit in front of jurors every day. But my client has to choose between attending his mother in law's funeral--
Judge Kaplan: I have ruled. Sit down
Habba: I don't like to be spoken to that why. Please refrain. I am asking for an adjournment for a funeral.
Judge Kaplan: Denied. Sit down
We are under a boil water order in our #Topeka#Kansas town this #WhiskerWednesday. Water dept says a pipe broke due to "extreme cold" and contaminated the cities' water supply. I'm supervising the process & making sure all pet 💦H2O bowls have safe water for today. #SheltieLife#DogsOfMastodon
@thepoliticalcat Hi! I'm doing well today. The steroid shot should be wearing off now, so hopefully I won't be limping and my appetite will return. How are you?
#MamaAndMe have been cooking today. On deck was a spiral ham with cranberry glaze, salmon with butter n lemon pepper, plus cranberry orange bread, and frosted brownies! The house is unbearably aromatic! #SheltieLife#DogsOfMastodon
A cold #Caturday in #Kansas. #Catio be closed cuz' it's 4° outside. But us #Cats observe birbs, squirrels, dogs walking hooms, and 🌨️ snow shoveling activities. #CatsOfMastodon
It is so cold on this #FelineFriday😿. I pace in front of the Catio window. I can see the 🐦 birbs getting their breakfast, but I'm far away. Mom says I can't go out. She says 17° is too cold ❄️🥶 even for a former outside kitty like me. Sad 😿 Stuck inside. #TabbyCat#Stevie#CatsOfMastodon
Ok so last night dad made mom's fave Chinese dish, Mongolian Beef but he made it SO 🌶️spicy 🔥 hot neither hooman could eat it! 🤣 He put 3 tsp of red hot pepper 🌶️ flakes into the sauce! 😲😆 Dad's eyes teared up and his nose was running. Poor mom was coughing. But dad made a new batch of sauce so there's something to eat on #NewYearsDay#2024
#Fireworks 🎆scared 😢me last night. My mama gave me some antianxiety meds that helped. But I really just wanted my mama to hold me and make it go away. We need better ways to celebrate than with terrifying loud noises. #SheltieLife#DogsOfMastodon#NewYear#2024
What day is it!? 😆🤷🏼♀️Staff is having a 😹communication fluster cluck. My appointment to see Dr. Terry is actually #CATURDAY😺. I ate a bit of food this morning so that's good& played hard with dad last night, but the limp & favoring of my front left leg is definitely not mom's imagination. I'm sleeping in my fleece bed in mom's sewing room now. Earlier I went out to the #Catio to patrol my yard. We need professional advice! #TabbyCat#Stevie#CatsOfMastodon
@JudyOlo I ate more of my lunch today when #CatMom served it out in the #Catio on the floor. I'm still jumping up on things, like my high chair and various perched. Thank you for checking up on me.
I will be seeing Dr.Terry Saturday morning. I'm still 😿 limping n not eating much. Mom observed me hold my right paw up off the floor while sitting up. #TabbyCat#Stevie#CatsOfMastodon
I'm not eating much lately. #CatMom is giving me all my favorites like fish, chimkin, turkey, mixed with water as usual. She's tried single ingredient meals too, a long with my usual Missing Link Super Food. But I only eat a tiny bit. Mom staff has noticed a slight limp in my walk. Maybe I'm in pain? I play and otherwise behave normally. Any advice? #TabbyCat#CatsOfMastodon
I had pulled a patio chair right up against the sliding door so I could sit under the eaves during the recent rain storms and this is the sight that greeted me yesterday morning. Handsome Jack,taking a snooze while waiting for me to wake up and driving my indoor kitty crazy with his audacity 🙀
It's #Christmas at #OurHouse but our mama has a sprained back. She be in awful pain n has to be flat on her back. 😿 #Cat Daddy is in charge of all #Christmas cooking for family party. Poor mama. She is popping OTC pain relievers. Helps, but it will days before she recovers. 🎄😢 I help by napping next to her.
Even if Rudy is forced to pay just a fraction of the judgment, it will be financially ruinous for the former mayor.
Former US Attorney Barb McQuade appeared on MSNBC and explained what happens next:
“His wages could be garnished and his profits disorged,” she told MSNBC, “but he can’t avoid paying Ms Freeman and Ms Moss – even if he declares bankruptcy – unless he can get the verdict thrown out on appeal.”
@GottaLaff ANY income from his estate left for his eventual survivors will be subject first to this judgement. He is facing a very bleak future indeed.
I have been so #busy at #work recently. It seems that everyone is getting ready for a #Christmas#break and people want to clear their task lists. What else? My #mother got a #dementia diagnosis yesterday, so now both of my parents have #alzheimers. 🥺 I will spend Christmas with them in my home village. My father lives in a sheltered home, and my mother lives alone. ♥️ 🫶 #today#suomimastodon#finland
@KissAnne I'm so very sorry about your parents. I have no words of real comfort. It's a devastating disease. You'll need support for yourself, friends, professionals, and family. If you don't live and work in the US you will be able to get some professional help.
