It seems like it's been a longer day than it really has. I could go to sleep right now.
Cattibre has been sick most of the day. In the morning I went out to the store and picked her up some meds and calamine lotion. Since the Tylenol has kicked in she's been feeling better which is good. The itch is enough on it's own she doesn't really need to be feeling feverish and dizzy on top of that. They've watched about 4 movies today and I don't even mind given the circumstances.
I took Tully over to the dog park for a while when Nancy mentioned that she and Nicole were going over there. There ended up being a bunch of people there. Not as many as normally show up in the morning but there ended up being 6 or 7 dogs in total by the time that I ended up leaving. I would have stayed longer but didn't want to leave the kids too long at home alone.
Nancy got Tully a name tag for his collar and he chewed it up a bit already but I moved where it was so it couldn't make it all the way into his mouth and hopefully isn't bugging him as much anymore.
Dad is driving me down to work tomorrow morning and mom is staying in town with the kids which means she can take care of the dog too so that's good. Laura and Scott have said they'll stay at the house Monday - Wednesday to look after him too which is great. I'm glad that he doesn't have to go and stay away from the house for that long.
I have to pack tomorrow evening and I'm not particularly looking forward to it. At least I know this is the last time I'll be away over night in a hotel for the program.
I'm having a really hard time reconciling my feelings about Paul. Not that I want to jump him or anything. I'm just realizing how much I equate male friendship with the necessity of sex. Which obviously is not an actual necessity and a leftover of attempting to prove myself in the past. It's just hard on my brain being friendly enough with him for him to offer to carpool / trying to make my hotel reservations for me so that we can carpool when we're both traveling from home instead of from the training store. All of this in the future I'm sure will seem ridiculous, and it's not that I think he expects anything for it but my brain still goes in that direction as soon as any person with a penis is remotely friendly with me. It's something I need to work on.
