I had the vet come this week for a blood test and check-up; her kidneys are getting worse, but not failing yet, so that\u2019s good news. She\u2019s eating well and seems to be in good spirits. A technician is coming this week to run a sonogram on her &#8211; I just want to be sure we\u2019re paying attention since she turned 19 this summer. I\u2019m also getting in touch with a cat nephrologist who has a good reputation here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was a busy week. The visiting computer team left Monday afternoon. Tuesday was a reception at Bosch Palace to welcome our new public affairs colleagues, Lydia and Anj (Lydia is an old friend and we were in A-100 with Anj). It was fun to see a couple of our favorite Argentine friends, Luis and Mr. H, and meet some new folks, too. And Wednesday was yoga at the embassy, which I\u2019m really enjoying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had a wonderful dinner with Lea and Jose at Anchoito\u2019s Friday night, and a chilly-but-delish lunch yesterday with Ben, Mara, and Magnolia. Earlier in the week we had torrential rains, and the temp really dropped back down afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I finished \u201cFleishman is in Trouble,\u201d which I enjoyed despite the navel-gazing, and am now reading the delightful \u201cLessons in Chemistry.\u201d John and I finished \u201cKorrha\u201d and are now watching the Spanish, \u201cThe Snow Girl\u201d crime drama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s a three-day weekend for us due to a local holiday, and Flavie has spent a lot of time curled up on me sleeping &#8211; so sweet.
