Up at Dawn's Crack
ROFL I'm up at the butt-crack of dawn this morning... got up at 5:30 to go potty but then decided to just get up. I ended up going to bed around 10 last night because Joe was exhausted and so I just went to sleep with him. He's still sleeping, of course, but I'm up to take care of things that need carin' for. ;)
So my suit is MOSTLY done. I need to add the little bit of white to the chin of the head, and I need to shave down the arms so the color of the "socks" fade into the color of the paws. Also, the tail hole needs to be cut. Other than that, and the fact that she's got no real feet, she's done!! :)
I made a checklist yesterday of everything we need to gather for the trip. Right now I'm just working on dishes/laundry and when Joe is closer to awakeness I'll finish gathering art supplies.
His fever didn't seem so bad this morning. Last night the therm. got up to 99.9 but we think it doesn't allow for that fourth digit so it didn't give an accurate reading. O_o But he crawled into bed, fell asleep, and all night he's been breathing easier. The past few nights he'd been snoring a LOT no matter how he lay, but last night he seemed alright. When I woke at 5:30 he stirred too, to get a drink of water from his bedside bottle, and his head didn't feel quite so warm.
So now I'm supervising kitty playtime and watching him zoom around; he's claw-climbed the back of the computer chair (which is upholstered with a carpeting-type of fabric, so don't worry, it's not leather) and that seems to be his favorite thing to do when he's full of energy. That, and wrap his kitty arms around ANYthing he can and hold on to it with his paws -- the stairs, the couch, his toys... the dog... what a fun household this is. :D
