I read a disheartening post this morning on social media. A classmate/friend of mine said that yesterday was the worst day of his life. Even worse than the day he got his cancer diagnosis. His mom checked into the hospital for a simple test and passed away.
Yet another reminder that we all have an expiration date. We don’t know when that date is or how it will happen. Tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. A sobering reminder to cherish today and those that you love. As well as to express your love to those you care about.
Yeah I know I’m talking like I am 90 or something and it’s depressing. It’s also truthful.
Gator isn’t feeling the greatest and both her an her brother are so confused that they are the only 2 cats in the house. I gave them both the same thing to eat this morning and they both turned their noses up at it. I had to open something different for each of them. Good thing I got up early or that would have thrown a wrench in my routine.
I talk to each of them like they have ears and can understand me. This morning without thinking I looked at Gator and asked where is your mom. I felt awful afterward and corrected myself to say brother. I sing songs about her (Momma) when I am in the shower and still miss her. She was a big part of my life and it’s not like I can just forget her.
I think each of them understand and know what happened to their mom. Not 100% sure they are dealing with it okay but they aren’t on a hunger strike. Which is a good thing. Marv still goes and hides at night under the couch to sleep. But we all start out gathered in the same place, which is my room.
In other news I made quite a blunder at work yesterday but thankfully it all worked out well. It was something that could have easily cost me my job and of course the worrier in me worried until I heard this morning that it’s been put to bed and everything is okay. I could have avoided this mistake by doing what I do best and communicating but it just never occurred to me. I took responsibility and of course I was much harder on myself. Can’t blame this one on emotions, I was just trying to be a people pleaser and not get yelled at.
I am not feeling the best but at least I am doing better than I was this morning. My body is still trying to get sick but can’t make up it’s mind. So I get lots of mixed signals. I’m chalking it up to allergies at the moment. Hopefully, that is accurate.
Not much else happening at the moment. Finishing up the pizza tonight for dinner, last 2 pieces. It is so good and I am glad that I paced myself with it to make it last longer. I think I got more value for my money in that it’s turned into 4 meals instead of 2. However, I will look forward to having something different tomorrow night. Thinking of Beef Sheppard’s pie, that sounds really good.
Keeping with the food theme, I got this cake called Sock It to me.. It’s a cinnamon crème cake and it’s the driest cake ever. Microwaving it makes it softer but it’s still dry. I paid for it so you know I will finish it. Just won’t buy another one. That’s what I get for not wanting to pay $15 for a cake, which I think is a bit on the high price side of things.
So there you have it, ye old update for now. Talk with you all again soon.
