I wish I could take a whole week off.. I slept poorly last night, and I wonder if it’s a side effect of the new birth control . It could also be stress related considering everything going on with Miki. I know I need to give it more time, but it’s tough when not sleeping well makes me feel so terrible. I had my annual physical this morning which went fine aside from I’ve gained a couple pounds. That could be from any number of things too. If I was smart I would’ve not eaten or drank coffee before the appointment, because I could have gotten my bloodwork done. I’ll have to either go on my way to work Friday, or I could go Saturday morning but the only lab open Saturdays is out of the way. I want to see what my thyroid level is doing (they are rechecking that, since my TSH was high last month), and what my white blood count is. That’s been low for several years. I won’t have time to get to the lab on Wednesday because I will hit too much traffic and will be late for work. Tuesday and Thursday I usually run, which would make it really difficult to fast, and it’s not urgent.
I just finished cooking, and I need to make lunches and then walk Miki again. It’s really nice again today after it rained all day yesterday.. I thought about bringing Miki to the trails again, but it’ll be super muddy, so probably not the best idea.
Leo - No doubt tech support will say the problem is all your fault. I feel your frustration.
I just finished working on a PayPal dispute for my partner. He got a defective strut assembly from Amazon. That lead to me having to call Amazon. I got a partial refund. Now fighting with PayPal because he needs a second alignment for the new strut assembly. I want another partial refund to cover that. My work is never freaking done. I hate the constant mental load when I can barely manage my own sh*t.
I'm going to sort some paperwork and just do simple stuff. I'm off tomorrow. October is looking very slow so far. I'm worried about that.
We have a trapper coming Wednesday to put traps out for some of our ferals. She won't bait them until Sunday. The traps will be put in place so that the cats get used to seeing them. They are getting out of hand so this is a good thing. My partner wants to bring in one cat (Violet - she has an attitude like Lady Grantham on Downton Abbey) who is socialized. She just had kittens so we need to locate them and bring them all in. I checked around today and didn't find/hear them. I need to contact a friend and see if she still has any large collapsible dog crates to create a holding area for them. I'm not sure if Violet will acclimate but he wants to try. If nothing else, we'll TNR all of them.
Hi Miki - I'm glad that your physical went well. Looks like the East coast may have a Noreaster at the end of the week. I hope that you can grab a nap today!
