Dollar General also has some storage bins that I should check out.

I was talking pet fountains with my boss (she has cats), and Oliver is interested in water, so I bought one for Oliver and Lily in the kitchen and one for Mimi upstairs. (Zara does not like pet fountains.)

Oh! The delivery of the larger harness is scheduled for tonight, not last ( Read more... )

I got up in time for my Italian lesson. We did some listening exercises that were really hard. She also asked where I liked the culture on my cruise, and I said "Puerto Rico because the people are really nice".

Mimi is still being clingy. I had a nice nap with Zara. She comes trotting up when I lie down on the bed.

I found out how to get a ( Read more... )

I didn’t sleep well and kept on waking up cold.

Crap. The doctor said that they can’t fill my prescription because it’s been too long since they saw me. I told them that I have an appointment set with a new doctor, but I need the meds now. I feel like crying. I feel like I’ve had it.

I’m feeling lousy, so I think that I’ll be out sick. Lay down ( Read more... )

The estate sale guy said that they would work on the accounting for the sale and also clean out my Mom's house this week. My handyman up there called to ask how things were going up there. Apparently he stored a piece of glass on the breezeway and put a key to the house under a rock near the front door. I didn't know this. He said that he would ( Read more... )

I finally remembered to check whether the pet sitter had picked up the job for this weekend until Wednesday, and she had not. I messaged her and we got it squared away. I'm glad that I checked. I need to get cash for her.

I don't know why I've been feeling so cold lately. I checked the thermostat, and it's at 70F, and I have a hoodie and jeans on.

I lay down "for a few minutes" before getting ready for bed and slept through until 5 AM.

I've been picking up individual Christmas cards because I only have a few people on my list. It just occurred to me that I need one for my friend Lance. (I did buy one with a flamingo on it saying something about avoiding snow (I don't remember the exact ( Read more... )

Got my French homework printed off and stashed in my backpack. Got my clothes together for both days of flights. I'm getting my second wind, but I still think that I'll pack my clothes in the AM.

Intel is going to be providing foundry services to NVIDIA. I'm trying to scrape together cash to invest. Okay, transferred some money. Bought shares.

I was in a panic because I overslept 15 minutes. It was a quarter to 8, and I wanted to log on at 8:30, and I needed to take a shower and get dressed. I was waiting for the hot water to kick in for my shower, when I remembered the time change. I needed to log on at 9:30 local time. So I calmed down.

Mimi was upset because I was in the bathroom ( Read more... )

It's good to have a trial run with the pet sitter. I'm hoping to be back in Urbana by September, but if not, I'm taking a trip for a little over a week in the beginning of September. (That's the train trip to see my dad and go to San Francisco.) And I'm going to Hawaii in October.

There is a moth taunting Mimi. Or maybe it's not too smart because ( Read more... )

And it's snowing. It snowed overnight and is still snowing. I feel like Nanook of the North. They're saying snow for the next few hours.

My pet sitter said that the 20th is the latest that she can do because she is having surgery on the 21st. The walls are closing in on me.

Life is sucking like a giant vacuum cleaner.

Mom was complaining that I ( Read more... )
