Meh

I took Monday off, wasn’t feeling well.  Probably should have pushed myself but I didn’t.  Spent the bulk of the day watching movies.  Saw Super Size Me 2 – Holy Chicken, Death at a Funeral and Car Wash.  Entertaining and educational. It was a waste of a day but I learned something. 

Marv has me concerned.  He isn’t eating much and spends his time in my room or under the love seat.  We did get in some couch time yesterday which made him happy or so I think.  This could just be from me being nice and giving him the weekend off from his medicine.  He acts like he is taking it but then manages to spit it back out.  Sometimes this happens in front of me and sometimes he waits until I am not around.  I get he doesn’t like pills, no one does.  It’s much more aggravating for me to give him the medicine.  I know it bothers his stomach but it’s what is helping to keep him alive.  Perhaps I am just hypersensitive since I just lost momma.  I don’t want to lose another one anytime soon. 

So it’s 3am and I am off in dreamland.  Marv starts howling and wakes me up.  My head was pounding, I went to the bathroom and then made my way to the kitchen where I opened a pouch of food and gave that to him since he didn’t eat anything for supper.  Turns out that is exactly what he wanted.  He also wanted me to stay up and rotate the plate but at 3a there is no way I am playing that game.  I went back to bed and tried to fall asleep it must have taken me an hour but then I tossed and turned.  Until finally it was time to get up. 

Not exactly sure how I was going to make it through the day, I thought about working from home.  That would have offered me a nap option, which I would have taken.  However, I pushed forward and made it in.  There was a ton to catch up on this morning and now that has passed there isn’t a whole lot going on and I am thankful for that. 

My upper back is killing me and I promised Marv couch time tonight.  I’ll keep my word if he is interested but if not then I am headed to my chair once we get to that point in the evening.  I don’t know if this is all from the dust I stirred up on Sunday or if it’s my bodies continual fight that I have been experiencing for a while.  I just want it gone.  I’ve got hot flashes as well which isn’t fun. 

Gator is the only one in the house that I think is doing well.  She begs, meows, eats and cuddles.  She is cute and she knows it, I am pretty sure she uses that to her advantage. 

Doesn’t help that it’s been raining and now we have snow on the way.  To think it was spring like over the weekend and now were back in the deep freeze.  March should be interesting!  Hope all is well in your world.  Talk with you again soon.
