So we've had a cat living on our porch for the past week. Surprisingly we call him "porch cat". I wasn't going to let him in, I really wasn't. He was super friendly but not fixed, and I have a 6 month old unfixed girl cat, and she has an appointment to be fixed next week. But then with all the rain and the fact that every day I would wake up, fo to the kitchen and see porch cat staring at me through the window, smiling, and meowing at me. He wanted a family. He wanted to come inside. And then he started getting into fights with another outside boy cat that lives down the street. So I started calling places to see how soon I could get him fixed. And nobody had any availablity this week, but then I found out about the cat clinic. A place called Greys and Strays does a low cost cat neutering clinic every friday between 8-9am. You drop off your cat, pay a small fee and pick them up a few hours later. It was pretty awesome actually.

So now we have a new cat, an inside outside cat, who probably needs a new name.

So that's nice, that's dealt with.

On the other hand I have a roofer coming next week. And I had an electrician come today and after having half the electric go out in my kitchen yesterday, including our fridge. And yet just a few hours ago our fridge went out again, so apparently it was actually a problem with the fridge not the electric. And now it's the weekend. Good times.

Oh and the boy is sick. And he was up half the night coughing, which means I was up half the night.

But on the plus side we went to his school Open House yesterday and it made me feel really happy. Happy with his teacher, happy with the work he's doing, her seeing that he is on a level above some of theother kids, and might need to be challenged in some areas. She seemed to know him, that she had taken the time to really know all the kids and work with them on their level, and that she could see what I have been doing with him.

But on the negative side I am spent. I am tired and somewhat hungry and spent. It feels like I never stopped running today, like my whole world is spinning. And it's just going to keep going tomorrow, lots still to do tomorrow, not just finding an appliance repair man, but taking the boy to swim class and the library festival, and the bank, and making dinner for us, and my parents who are visiting.

I'm tired. I'm tired. I'm tired.

And I've got nothing else to say.

parenting, pets, my life
