On Vacation Now!

[days_unfolding]

Woke up at 7:30 AM. It’s a dark and gloomy day. Showered and put on fresh pajamas as a compromise for this probably short day. The new pajamas are very cozy.

Quiet at work. I'm discussing aquariums, dogs, and cats with my friend/colleague.

Yeah, we'll be out at 2.

Hmm, I'm looking at some magnetic cord clips on Amazon. I still need to get the cords on my bedside table organized.

Yay, I'm on vacation! Nap time! I’m actually not that sleepy, so I got up. I got the lockbox set up and put on my back door. (I don’t usually come in that way, but it might change when I have the garage built.)

I got the aquarium vacuumed out and washed, but I need an algae scraper to get some algae off. I have one on order, but I need one now because I want to get the fish tank upstairs. Meijer has one. They also were having a sale in which if you spent $50, you get $10 off, so I bought a ton of cat litter as well (plus I needed a large enough order for delivery). It will get used.

I decided to clean out the refrigerator, which was sorely needed. I got a big garbage bag of stuff to throw out. I couldn’t find the salmon for the salmon chowder, so I ordered some from Walmart along with extra cat food. I forgot that I have a bottle of mimosa, so I might drink it for New Year’s Eve. Or not because I’ve had it for a long time. Okay, I’ve got the algae scraper, but now I’m in the middle of cleaning the fridge. Got the salmon. I can make Salmon Chowder tomorrow. The fridge is cleaned out and restocked and hey, there’s room in there. I’m taking a break, and then I’ll sweep the floor by the refrigerator and get the garbage out and do dishes.

I’m running out of steam though, so I might save finishing the aquarium until tomorrow morning.

I’m going to try a new cat litter made out of wood shavings. We’ll see how the girls like it. It’s more sustainable, biodegradable, and supposedly smells nice. (Yes, I know to add it to the old litter over time.)

Okay, I'm officially wiped out. Time to feed the girls, change back into my pajamas, and go to bed.
