A Very Full House
Oliver jumped on me a couple of times when I was trying to sleep. Sigh. He and Zara had words. Nonetheless, I woke up at 4 AM. Mimi was downstairs. Oliver seems to be asleep somewhere. It’s kind of nice being in the quiet.
Walmart has a ten-gallon fish tank for only $44.98. And I can have it delivered! Ordered and delivered.
Oops. Oliver is up. He’s following me around again. He was rolling on the table, knocked my soda over and my glasses, and I stepped on my glasses. Sigh. I’m down to one pair of glasses, so I need to order another pair. I’m also nicknaming him “Dennis the Menace “.
He ran under my feet and I stepped on him. He’s in the bedroom, and Zara ran away. He dug his claws in my arm. He needs to settle down. He burrowed under the covers at my feet and let me sleep.
He and Zara had words again. He’s now dozing on the bed. He definitely needs an “off” button. I fed Zara and Mimi, and he was interested in the food, so I gave him some, and he didn’t eat it. Not surprised because he ate so much yesterday.
Zara and Mimi got into a squabble because they’re stressed.
I shut Oliver in the bathroom when I got my groceries in. Oliver fell behind the dryer. I think that I’ll also shut him in the bathroom while I get the garbage and recycling out.
I’m going to try to take a short nap. I’m tired! Oliver is clearly asleep somewhere, and peace reigned throughout the land.
Oliver has to do EVERYTHING that I do. I stepped out of the shower, and he stepped in, shaking his paws because it was wet. I TOLD him that it was wet!
I went to the Humane Society to meet Aldi, who will be known as Lily. (Oliver’s shelter name was Walmart.) She seemed more interested in the toy than in me, but she was cute, and I told them that I would adopt her. They said that I could pick her up tomorrow. Just as well because I wanted to stop and get BandAids and return my library books.
Oliver has taken over my chair in the kitchen. He was resting his head on me and purring. He’s lucky that he’s cute.
Uh-oh. Zara was on my lap, but Oliver came in. Zara started hissing and growling and then left. Now she came back and they’re both on the bed. Much kitty drama….I’m glad to see Zara on the bed though.
Oh dear. President Carter died. Well, he had a good, long life.
Zara and Oliver both were snoozing on the bed.
Later, Zara woke up, realized that she was on the bed with Oliver, and ran away.
Holy. Cow.
I’m getting the dog that I applied for. It’s going to be a full house! I’ll be picking her up on Friday. They said that she's a really laid-back dog, which is what we need. No high-energy dogs here!
My mind is blown!
I just texted the person from whom I'm adopting her to find out what food she's been eating.
Oliver needs to learn not to jump on the computer. I picked him up and put him on the ground, which seems to help. I need a squirt bottle.
I ordered a new pair of glasses from Zenni. I chose a similar one to the ones that I ordered from Target and really love.
I think that I'll go to bed early--although I need to work on the aquarium--and get up early to go to PetSmart before I pick up Lily.
