Morning again! Yesterday late in the morning the lawn crew showed up and they made the first cut of the season. Not that there was a whole lot to cut but the front yard was looking pretty bad. Things look better. The forecast has rain and lots of it in store for us for the remainder of the week. Not exactly great weather to be on vacation but hey I will have time away from work, so I suppose it’s not a complete loss.
As per usual I’ve managed to knock out all of my tasks for the day in the matter of a couple hours. Now I am in standby mode waiting for something to pop or for a meeting to roll around. I’ve got 2 back to back meetings this mornings and if nothing else happens the day will be done. I am not a fan of being in standby mode because when the boredom sets in that is when I get tired, then I go give in and take a nap only to be woken up by the phone. If it’s not an email it’s a phone call.
I took another double dose of sleeping medicine last night and man that kicked in and I felt really good & drowsy. No issues falling asleep at all. I did wake up in the middle of the night and tried to put off getting up but my bladder had other thoughts so I had to give in. Rudy of course thought it was time to get up. I went back to bed and he tried making biscuits to entice me to wake up but that just helped to lull me back to sleep. He is so light and laying on top of me it’s like a security blanket. I absolutely love it. If Morea likes to sit on me but that feels more like a small elephant and it hurts. I permit it until I just can’t take it and then she has to move.
Funny how they have adapted to me and they also created some of their own habits & routines. It’s only been 2 months. I can tell they are happy to be here and glad that I rescued them. Rudy was the one who won me over and Morea came out of her shell once she realized that this is now her home and she is all over me, usually in the evening and early morning. They both love to bite my phone. They too are no fans of technology. When the phone rings or an alert fires off it scares them and they are displeased. They are getting more used to the alerts but phone calls are so rare when the phone rings it still scares them. I still miss my Gator but these two do a good job of keeping me busy and providing some comfort.
Supper last night was 1/2 of Lasagna from the store and 1 piece of left over pizza. Then I had a peanut butter cookie and that was it. It wasn’t until much later in the evening that my allergies were bothering me. Then it hit me I forgot to take my medicine, no wonder I had issues. I took my pills and then had a small glass of milk and 3 chocolate caramel filled mini bunnies. Waited a bit then took my sleeping meds. Not the worst way to end the evening but I wish I would have remembered to take my allergy meds on time. I got out of my routine of medicine first then supper. I went straight to supper because I was hungry.
I will probably do Pizza & Lasagna for supper again tonight. I am fairly certain I will be eating out while I am off but not exactly sure how much. Outside of the trips to the doctor and the hardware place, I don’t really have a whole lot planned. If I can knock both trips out in the same day that would be great. However, I know it will get done. I just hope that I can get the part I need so that I can hook the Water Softener backup and know if it’s okay to resume using it or if I am going to be doing without.
Looking forward to getting some sleep, forgetting about work even if it’s only for a few days. I am eager to shut work email off on my phone and get the party started. Hoping that its a good day and that there isn’t a whole lot of BS in the meetings, I know there will be some just because that is part of work.
I hope it’s a great day for all of us. That your doing well and safe. I will talk with you all again soon.
