Kind of a Lazy Day

I turned on the heat last night because the temperature has been going down to the 40s F, but I don't think that it has gone on yet. I brought out an extra blanket.

Woke up a few times, but got up at 10 AM. Mimi is making a fuss over me. I guess that she missed me yesterday. Fed the cats first thing because it's later than they normally eat. Now Zara is in my face. I guess that she missed me too, although she's more independent than Mimi.

Zara was clearly still hungry, so I gave her the other half a can from Mimi's food. She usually eats Mimi's leftover food, which Mimi doesn't finish because she eats dry food, but I'm low on dry food, which should arrive today. Anyway, it all worked out, and we're all fed.

I read an article that said that the J&J vaccine, which is the one that I got, goes down to 3% after a few months. I hope that they have a booster soon.

Speaking of shots, I'm mulling over when I can get my flu shot. I was thinking Friday, but I'll be in Chicago that day. And I'll be getting in late on Saturday. I don't want to get it on Thursday because of possible side effects. Maybe the following week?

Took a long nap. Woke up feeling kind of dizzy and shaky, but food has helped. I'm wondering if I should lie down a little longer though. Checked that Walmart has Blue Buffalo dry cat food, and they do, so I'll pick some up tonight if the food from Amazon doesn't arrive.

I did lie down and slept. Got up and fed the girls again.

Texted the pet sitter. She said that she could take care of the cats Friday and Saturday. Awesome.

Started laundry. Ran out and got soda and Mimi's dry cat food.

Talked to Mom. The doctors are having her do an endless round of tests. She wants me to get another J&J shot, but I looked into it, and they're not offering second shots yet. She's worried about the state of the country.

I need to study Italian, but I'm tired, so I'm going to go to bed and get up early.

I Get Stuff Done When I Have To

Got up early but kind of frittered away the time. My stomach is upset. I'm cozy, though, in my warm robe and slippers.

Zara was kind of picking at her food this morning, but she ate extra food yesterday, so I'm not worried yet. I was saving a Chewy box to use when I move next year (it's a nice size), but Zara has claimed it and is hiding under the packing paper :)

I was able to study Italian a little. The Italian lesson went well, although he will show me a conjugation and then give me an exercise in it without looking at the conjugation. I can't memorize it that fast!

Oh, I forgot to mention yesterday that I told Mom that Mimi likes to lie on bubble envelopes, so Mom is sending her an empty envelope! She said that she's getting quite fond of Mimi.

Took a nap and overslept because I was in the middle of a dream. Fed the girls, and Zara gobbled down her food, including the food that she didn't eat this morning, so I guess that she's okay. Now she's all snuggly. She likes to knead my right breast, and I told her that's not going to work!

I feel like going to sleep really early, but I have homework to do and I need to get gas. Plus I might wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to fall back asleep.

Well, the program is mostly done, but I'm getting an error that I can't figure out, so I emailed my instructor. Now I'll study for my quiz. I'm making bonehead mistakes (started the wrong quiz), so I think that I need to go get gas and start my nighttime tasks and head towards bed.

I don't think that I'll get to send my Italian emails tonight, but definitely tomorrow. My Italian teacher is pleased that I'm practicing Italian writing them. No, actually I sent one message and will send another one tomorrow.

Oh crap. I need to take out the garbage. I forgot. Done. And I forgot to scrub litter boxes. I put one on to soak overnight. I'll get the other one tomorrow night.

Got gas. Had a bite to eat. Found some Oracle cards on Amazon that I'd like to get, but need to wait until I get more money. Maybe I'll get them for my birthday? Did my nighttime chores. To bed, quickly.
