* Thursday: I stayed up late two days in a row for phone bureaucracy. I thought I was down to one until February, but my body woke me up to deal with a brand new thing that went wrong on my sleep. When I got up to attempt mitigation, I discovered another thing that had gone terribly wrong in my sleep. I'm going to have to add "call doctor" to my to do list.
Thing one is likely yet more fall out from one of my meds getting discontinued and a world wide shortage of the replacement meaning I can't get any. Thing two is likely yet another massive AS ramp up. Sigh. I'm hoping thing one might be bad enough to push me closer to the head of the wait list. Thing 2...basically, my CS carrier rules out biologics as I can't stay healthy long enough to use them, even in lockdown. Hence my shoulder. hence the suddenly more aggressive hip deterioration which I suspect is happening.
Upshot, I was struggling to make the walk from bed to toilet, so I stayed in bed and finished the latest October Daye and watched an episode of city of angels(In my last library packet) and one of Discovery, since Squirrel turned on CBS last night. I didn't manage to feed myself until Midnight, which gives you an idea.
In Cat News: Octavian has conquered Squirrel's room for the Empire, and has spent the last two days ostentatiously sitting on things in there to prove he can, instead of sleeping with me all day. Oh, he does come for his spot naps, but Livia's taken advantage of lack of imperial oversight to enjoy extra pettins, and good on her, I say.
Also, the Millenials who bring my groceries dropped off a flippy fish their cats found too disturbing. Predictably, the Empress is terrified of it, but in the last couple days, she's been staring at it in horrified fascination from a distance, which is huge progress. The Emperor is also fascinated, but not frightened of it. He watches from close up and even (accidentally) turned it on himself once. He has not yet worked out it's a erestle toy, but I have high hopes.
* Friday: I'm still super shaky from Thursday. I have alerted my Doctor's nurse. We'll see what happens. The relief thingie came just in time for my car to develop a warning light. we take it in Monday before 8AM. Odds are it's electrical. I really need this to not eat the entire relief payment, because that's what I was going to use for property taxes.
In cat news, Livia noticed Thursday that Elder Kitty and Tavy were no longer fighting pitched battles over sofa ownership, what with Elder kitty no longer being here. She spent two days sleeping on the sofa seat. Alas, in the wee hours, Tavy caught her at it and eventually chased her off. She relocated to the safety Chair, but Tavy's learned how to cope with swivel chairs over the summer. I discouraged him from hassling her, but he came back later, casing her onto the fish viewing chair, where she ended up sleeping.

* Thursday: I stayed up late two days in a row for phone bureaucracy. I thought I was down to one until February, but my body woke me up to deal with a brand new thing that went wrong on my sleep. When I got up to attempt mitigation, I discovered another thing that had gone terribly wrong in my sleep. I'm going to have to add "call doctor" to my to do list.
Thing one is likely yet more fall out from one of my meds getting discontinued and a world wide shortage of the replacement meaning I can't get any. Thing two is likely yet another massive AS ramp up. Sigh. I'm hoping thing one might be bad enough to push me closer to the head of the wait list. Thing 2...basically, my CS carrier rules out biologics as I can't stay healthy long enough to use them, even in lockdown. Hence my shoulder. hence the suddenly more aggressive hip deterioration which I suspect is happening.
Upshot, I was struggling to make the walk from bed to toilet, so I stayed in bed and finished the latest October Daye and watched an episode of city of angels(In my last library packet) and one of Discovery, since Squirrel turned on CBS last night. I didn't manage to feed myself until Midnight, which gives you an idea.
In Cat News: Octavian has conquered Squirrel's room for the Empire, and has spent the last two days ostentatiously sitting on things in there to prove he can, instead of sleeping with me all day. Oh, he does come for his spot naps, but Livia's taken advantage of lack of imperial oversight to enjoy extra pettins, and good on her, I say.
Also, the Millenials who bring my groceries dropped off a flippy fish their cats found too disturbing. Predictably, the Empress is terrified of it, but in the last couple days, she's been staring at it in horrified fascination from a distance, which is huge progress. The Emperor is also fascinated, but not frightened of it. He watches from close up and even (accidentally) turned it on himself once. He has not yet worked out it's a erestle toy, but I have high hopes.
* Friday: I'm still super shaky from Thursday. I have alerted my Doctor's nurse. We'll see what happens. The relief thingie came just in time for my car to develop a warning light. we take it in Monday before 8AM. Odds are it's electrical. I really need this to not eat the entire relief payment, because that's what I was going to use for property taxes.
In cat news, Livia noticed Thursday that Elder Kitty and Tavy were no longer fighting pitched battles over sofa ownership, what with Elder kitty no longer being here. She spent two days sleeping on the sofa seat. Alas, in the wee hours, Tavy caught her at it and eventually chased her off. She relocated to the safety Chair, but Tavy's learned how to cope with swivel chairs over the summer. I discouraged him from hassling her, but he came back later, casing her onto the fish viewing chair, where she ended up sleeping.
