Good news (she said cautiously) after being very wobbly and actually wanting food but refusing everything, Sammi actually got back on the bed and had a nap, then after giving me some purrs and snuggles, she was much steadier when she got down and ate with appetite. Not the normal amount but she gave it a good go.
I'm much more hopeful now - earlier on I thought I was going to have to phone the vet tomorrow and have the 'is it time?' talk.
Crossing fingers for continued improvement!
Oooh SIL's bday is today she didn't wish me well for mine last year am I going to be petty or be the bigger person. A glass of wine will provide clarity.
Felt gross so I'm hydrating like a mofo today. I think maybe that was the issue.
No adventures for me this weekend either. Staying put and keeping it really low key. Trying not to get too much in my own head about things progressing. I'm scared but also excited. I've spent so much time on my own for way too long that I just hope I can come back from it without being a weirdo.. well, the weird kind of weirdo anyway I've always been a goofy weirdo.
What a beautiful day. I bought another backpack. Got trapped in the car listening to modern music which felt like hours but infact was only 40 minutes.
It’s amazing how triggers can lurk for decades totally unknown to you that they even exist, until one day they happen. Stressful childhoods are a life long affliction. I’m envious of people who had pleasant childhoods. It’s a life cheat code.
I regret to say that film was absolutely not worth going out for and I wish I'd stayed home and gone to bed earlier. Oh well. At least it was a direct tram to and fro and no traffic on the way back. Almost home. Some buscopan and chamomile tea and bed asap. Goodnight.
Same!! My shoulder really started acting up last year and I only got some relief when I was housesitting for someone and used one of those memory foam pillow things. I bought one for myself and it seems to have done the trick. I'd been sleeping with my arm under my head since I was a kid.
Y'all enjoying the glorious day outside and meanwhile I spent most of it asleep. Dead to the world till 10am, dozed off several times from 1 to 4 pm. I think I just really needed to rest for my immune system to recover. I'm glad I did, as I don't feel as off as I did yesterday. Zero caffeine today as well which was probably needed.
My tomato plant that kept going all winter has finally truly carked it, I think (well that's what I said at the end of summer but then it found new life somehow). I harvested about 15 little cherry toms and they were DIVINE - bursting with sun-ripened sweetness. Chopped em up with sardines and had them with a fried egg on toast, that was a very satisfying brekkie. Think I'll have another crack at growing a tomato plant (or two?!) this coming season even though I don't always have great luck with them.
Tomorrow I have decided I will head into the main uni library and hunker down there. Free parking nearby so I can stay late if needed. No distractions unlike at home. I feel a lot less glum about it knowing I've had plenty of rest today.
Had a nice pub lunch and then went to the cinema to see Deadpool and Wolverine. What a glorious day, feels like very positive spring vibes.. makes up for the sinus issues I had during the night. My nose started running and just would not stop until early this morning.
Round two of the electric dumpling boogaloo: this time I just boiled them rather than whatever the fuck I did to them yesterday, and they were wayyyy better. 8/10, would buy again gladly
Miss moo is having a hard time of it. But I managed to get her some of the good stuff and while she’s not up to wet food she’s licked some cracker crumbs and managed a few handfuls of treats.
I watched Alien Romulus last night and I was impressed. I went into the movie thinking it couldn't possibly be good and all the good Alien movies are behind us.
It may not advance the lore of the Alien universe but it has all the elements of an Alien movie and is a satisfying watch for a fan.
The boys were very interested in the remote control car so I'll charge the spare batteries during their nap and we'll fund somewhere to drive it this afternoon
Day three of no computer. I'm boredddd. Waiting for my leave and last pay to be paid out and I'll go buy one of my own instead of relying on workplace provided one
Drains blocked again, second time in 6 months this has happened. A call out fee on a Saturday for plumbers does not come cheap. And if it’s tree roots again in the same spot as last time, I’ll have to get the drains re-lined to plug the holes that the roots are getting in. Which is $$$. I did say if this happened again I’d do the re-lining, now I have to. Crap start to the weekend.
I have decided to sell my guillotine. It's really good, but I just don't use it enough to justify keeping it. I might turn some A4 paper into A5 paper first.
If you are planning beheadings it won't be useful for that, too many safety features. It might be of use in the production of flyers, or if you want to remove someone's fingers very slowly but with great precision.
I've been absurdly tired lately and now it's happening even in my dreams. I had a dream where I had free reign over a theme park and I could barely keep my eyes open in the dream >:(
