Update: Dad is stable right now.
And I honestly don't know how to feel about this.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You don't have to know, Strix.
In much lighter news, here is a lesson I have learned today: Don't fret before you have the whole story. I saw an email Friday from someone looking for updates on work I haven't done for him, but I didn't read the whole thing. Guess what? Two of the three are in motion, AND he's out next week, so I can definitely get the third done by then! Phew.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Just got back from lunch and the supermarket. Put Mr.S in his crib in a vain attempt to get him to nap. Doesn't seem to be working, but at least he's not underfoot for the moment.(For some reason I was having a "I can't even" morning where he was constantly annoying me.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
my lesson of the day, eating helps. I forgot to eat when I got up. So eating something 4 hours later made me feel 1000X better.

Jesse, thanks. I'm just in a holding pattern right now.
Packing and cleaning the office-cum-catroom.
It is vile. OMG, the lower bookshelves and under the furniture.
I found a dessicated poop BEHIND some books. I mean, that took some strategy.
CATS YOU ARE GROSS BUT I LOVE YOU BUT JFC.
...fucking shit. Our supposed new landlord backed out of renting to us a after 5 days of us waiting after I pointed out his lease as written was illegal in KS.
I HOPE YOU USE IT ON SOMEONE ELSE AND THEY SUE YOU.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
WTF, Strix! Too much stress.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Waiting sucks, Strix. I'm sorry.
Husband has reached the point of an in-person interview in Charlotte, so he has promptly lost his mind and decided that we need to get the house in sale-ready condition, so he is going around and dusting things and dealing with random home improvement projects.
Even though the plan would be for him to take a month or two and make REALLY FUCKING SURE he loves this job before we move again.
He just cleaned under the fridge.

He rented it to someone else. It was off the market 5 minutes after he emailed us.
...well, my scrubbing of the office floor WILL CERTAINLY BE THOROUGH. Fueled by RAAAAAGE.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, Strix, that really is too much. If you really want to throw your rage at him, I'm sure a local news outlet would love to jump on that story.

Naw, we hadn't signed the lease because I sent it back and very nicely pointed out it was illegal in KS, and, as written, he would actually be in a much worse legal position than us if we signed it and anything happened, *he* would be totally liable.
Sigh. I've already got two appointments set up for showings this week, and one house is simply stunning, so it'll all work out. I just...ugh. Didn't need this right at this particular moment in time.
Rage cleaning is going really well though!! (Ow, my back!!)
