I can't get up on my two-step stepladder anymore without holding onto the wall or something, because of vertigo. Fuck my you-stay-shun tubes too. Changing lightbulbs and filters and smoke alarms is more of an adventure than it really needs to be.
Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Thanks, WS. I slept a couple of hours and now I'm awake again because ltc is bouncing around. I'm hoping to get a couple more hours in before I have to be up.
I hope the halter doesn't point out anything unexpected, Typo.
I didn't sleep last night. Yesterday I heard that my aunt, the one in hospice, will probably pass in the next day or so. While she's a delightful person, we aren't close--due more to geography than anything else. Still, she made herself available during a difficult time in my childhood, and I'll always be grateful. Knowing she was getting on (93), I made a point of visiting her a year or so ago when she was still up for company and conversation, and I left knowing that it might well be the last time I'd see her. Yesterday's news just roiled up a lot of memories of Mom and Dad's last days, made me rethink some family dynamics, etc., and now the birds are singing and it's Tuesday. And, family dynamics or not, the cat still needs to be fed.
I'm sorry, Calli.
That's so hard, Calli.
I think I put together enough sleep to be able to deal with today's family gathering.
My feet keep swelling up in the short time I have my compression socks off so I can shower. Not sure what to do about that.
I'm sorry, Calli. That's hard. I'm glad you got to see her when you could. Sometimes the singing birds and knowing the cat still needs to be fed is all that keeps us getting up in the morning.
sj, I wish you all the spoons you need today. And waterproof compression socks.
Thanks, y'all. I'm so tired I think I'm starting to smell colors.
I've had a crappy weekend and beginning of the week. Let me back up, since like last Wednesday things have been rocky.
It's the kind of thing that makes me wonder if I'll ever be able to work full time and even why I'm trying.
