Monday

I’m off from work Mondays and Tuesdays; they have become my “errand days.”
Because of the night-shift work I do, I am usually comatose until about noon. [Due to a minor episode of insomnia, I was out until about 2 today. Ugh.] After I wake up, I have the three priorities that all right-thinking people have first thing in the morning: brew up a cuppa joe, feed the cat, and clean myself up such that I can go out in public without disgracing myself or bringing shame on the family name.
Mycah insists on being fed the moment I step out of my room. I almost have her trained to the point where she knows that nothing will happen until after I’ve had my coffee.
Once those three things have been done, I have the remainder of the afternoon to get done all those things that that can’t be done from the comfort of my desk. Trips to the grocery store or to the Post Office, physical therapy sessions, occasional visits to the veterinarian… anything that requires I leave the house. And I only have a few hours to get everything done.
Still to do today: grocery store, Post Office (sorry Mom, I’m slow), gas station, pharmacy, and Petsmart… not necessarily in that order. And when I get home, I have a couple loads of laundry to do, and the weekly Running of the Vacuum.
It’s good to be able to get out of the house again. By forcing myself to do a lot — go, go, go — I’m improving my physical condition and speeding my recovery.
But it sure makes for a busy day.
Bizzy day! Mycah probably finks yoo are almost untrained bout the foods. hehehe
When are the noo boys comin to stay?
Purrrrrrrs,
