Today I followed through with claw trimming for Ruth. She was a complete bitch and we had to go at it multiple times. I thought she was going to have a heart attack. We got into a wrestling match and that’s when she got in a couple licks on me. I got all of her claws but 1 trimmed. Each time we go at this in the past couple months she gets progressively worse. I remember back to when I gave her some reprieves because she put up such a fight. I suspect she remembers that and figures if she is an ass that I will just give up. I stopped a couple times and just held her and told her to breath, we both needed a break. I am so fucking out of shape that she almost killed me. My back is a complete wreck because of her.
The things we do for love. I am seriously going to ask the vet if there is something that I can do to make her a little groggy before I go in and do what I need to. I love her and I am not getting rid of her but damn I need a break from this. She gets everyone in the house upset. She has the worst temper out of all of the cats and she is not shy about showing it. She is my cat from hell when it comes to claw trimming.
I put out food and she won’t come out for that. Hopefully when I am watching Shameless she will come out. I wanted to brush her but that wasn’t an option. She is so sweet and adorable when she is free and if there is food involved. She doesn’t like to be isolated but if I carted her ass off to the vet when we get there and she comes out of her cage, she wants to be by daddy and at that point I can do anything to her, she is putty. In the house if I pick her up with out protection I will be seriously injured. I don’t know how to tell her that I am not going to hurt her I love her with all of my heart and it really kills me to fight with her. I know it does damage to both of us and I really don’t want that.
Ah frustration. So I got my Royale this morning and decided to add mustard. Damn that is the home run of burgers. I was thinking of my late partner and he always loved a BLT but cover it in mustard. This is essentially the same thing because there is bacon, burgers, cheese, lettuce, extra tomato and now mustard. I was pleased that I thought of this and was thanking him as I gulped it down.
Grocery store be dammed no fucking Christmas cookies. I could have gone to a 3rd store but decided to use the power of Amazon. I placed another $100 order. Got my cookies, 3 boxes of them! Also pee pads for Bear, A clock insert to fix a gift that was made for my grandma, A Clergy sticker for the car, some Sake Bomb Lotion by Billy Jealousy. That stuff is awesome. The only exciting thing in this order is my cookies and I so look forward to them! I just don’t understand why it’s so hard to find a common holiday cookie in a store this time of the year. It is mind boggling. Yeah I am sure some off the wall small mom and pop store has them but I don’t have the gas money or patients to drive around looking for cookies, thank you Amazon for coming to my aid. My doctor will be pissed but hey no one gets out of here alive, right?
Friday was password change day at work. I have around 22 different systems and/or web pages that I have to change. I also have 2 accounts so this takes time and is something I dread. Better now than putting it off to just before the holiday, when the actual due date would come due.
My iPhone wipe and restore was successful but I lost my cached biometric profiles. I couldn’t remember the password that was stored in iCloud. I tried to recover them by approving on another device but at the time I didn’t have another device powered on and by the time I got to it, there was no prompt so I had to scan all of my fingers again and enter passwords to get into apps then I could enable authentication through my finger print. Everything is back to normal. Now I watch and see how performance is and hopefully the issue is gone.
I got the Fall Creators Update applied on my laptop here at home and now it’s downloading a feature update. This fucking machine will never be up to date, at least that is the way it feels. To make things worse this Tuesday will be patch Tuesday so even more updates. Kind of a pain in the ass for something that I don’t use on a regular basis.
It is very early in the evening but I am so ready for bed after my work out. All of the work outside of prepping for the morning is done. I also have to pass out medication to the cats and that will prompt them to seek out another snack. Food is what it’s about for them. Marv gained 3 pounds since the last time he was at the vet. I am happy about that. I suspect Bear will have an upward weight change as well but I won’t know that until Saturday.
So as the final hours of Sunday tick by, I will be going at it yet again for another week. Best thing about this week is Friday is pay day! Plus it will bring us closer to Christmas. I look forward to that but not to New Years because that is when the shit gets real and I will have a ton of work to complete. I made it through last year and I’ll make it through again this year. Meanwhile I will enjoy the lulls as they come.
Hope you had a great Sunday and that it was a fun day! Stay warm and be well. Talk with you peeps again soon.
