Friday is well done. Gator got her fluids and while she wasn’t happy about it, she took them in stride. We got in some cuddle time and I eventually fell asleep but wasn’t paying much attention to the clock but I know it was a decent hour. Gator did wake me overnight for her hunger pains and I fetched her food.
Saturday rolled in and I of course didn’t want to roll out of bed, typical for me and a Saturday. It was comforting to know I didn’t have to be up. However, my body woke me at 7a and I took care of Gator and just watched some TV until I was able to fall back asleep. I got up a few hours later, made my way to the kitchen and had some oatmeal & Christmas cookies with a glass of milk for breakfast. Then back to the TV and eventually back to bed. Gator wouldn’t let me sleep past 1p. However, I didn’t really get moving until 2p.
Made it to the post office to fetch my check and it was a nice sum of money. About ½ of what my late mother-in-law paid for the ring, which I think is a good deal for me. Lord knows I could have used the money more back when I listed it but I am still glad that it finally sold. The money will go to good use now, I mean that’s the thing about money there really isn’t a time when you don’t need some. It’s the gift that never goes out of style.
I stopped in at the Pet Food store to grab some Gator food and dropped another $43 this week. She is really eating pretty good for a cat. Although tonight when I finally got home, I opened a can of food and she didn’t want any. She hopped up in her bed and I figured she wanted me to feed her from bed but instead of eating she showed me her teeth and didn’t want it. I guess she isn’t feeling the greatest or she just ate before I came home, not sure which. I’m a little concerned because she has never turned down food and she has never shown me her teeth like that before. That was something her sister used to do when it was claw trimming time. She is purring and lets me touch her so I suppose those are good signs. That little ball of fur always manages to keep me on edge.
I went for pizza and as luck would have it the hunky waiter I liked was working, waited on me and we had some time to talk. I asked him out and he took my number then proceeded to tell me all about him and his girlfriend. Great he thinks I am just being nice and doesn’t realize I just hit on him, plus he’s straight. Funny thing is that we live pretty close to each other. He travels a hell of a way for work though. I don’t think I will hear from him but hey you never know. I can use friends and if a friendship blossoms great. I am glad that I finally got it off my chest and asked him. I kind of figured it was time to rip off the band aid. At least I won’t have to speculate anymore. It’s done.
My hard drive came yesterday. I let it warm up overnight and finally just unboxed it and plugged it in before making this post. I am copying data to it. I feel more comfortable with it but still there is the possibility that something could go wrong so I am proceeding with caution. My backup provider hasn’t shipped my drive yet but it should be here next week.
My new computer glasses will be here next week. It would be nice if my reimbursement would also arrive. The claim is paid and the check is in the mail but it just hasn’t gotten here yet. My vision insurance provider said that it’s coming from California and I have to allow 10 working days. The clock has run out already but I am still trying to be patient but if the check isn’t here by mid-week, then I will complain.
My new benefit information about the new mail order pharmacy my health insurance has changed to hasn’t arrived yet and that starts on Jan 1. I was hopeful to have the information by now. So, yet something else I have to police and potentially complain about. I thought it arrived already but I mistook what I thought was valuable information for nothing more than junk mail from my insurance provider.
Well going up to be with Gator. Out to breakfast in the morning, grocery store and gas station. I will need to make a trip out to Sam’s since I completely forgot about them today and it wasn’t until I was on my way back from the pizza place that it hit me. I need TP so it’s not like I can skip this.
The exterminator is also coming on Friday so I have to de gay the house by putting away all of my naked men and some toys. Looking forward to being off call on Monday, working 3 short days from home and then calling it quits for the week. Enjoying what will be my last 2 days of PTO that I plan to use this year. Carrying over a decent amount into next year but it’s not the 80 hours that I wanted to carry. I like having a cushion so if it’s needed, I know it’s there, kind of like money in the bank. You can’t have enough time off or enough money.
Hoping that My Gator is okay and that we don’t have to go see the vet. It’s cold here and between her in my lap and a blanket it’s a furnace. Nice and cozy. Take care and be well.
