I forgot to mention that I’m trying putting some water in the cats’ wet food as susandennis suggested, and they’re licking the bowls clean! Good because I have two elderly cats.

Well, I kept on hitting snooze. And my cleaner said this morning that she needed to come at 8 today, so we agreed that she would start at 8 on Friday. I want to call the appliance repair people to look at my garbage disposal unit. I'm also thinking of cleaning the refrigerator before Friday.

I'm thinking about my internal clock. When I get a thing to do at work, my internal clock says to hurry, and I need to slow down. I'm not sure what I think will happen if I go slower.

The appliance person is coming out Friday afternoon to look at my garbage disposal. Yay.

I think that the box that I just got is the new-to-me vacuum cleaner. I’ll need to try it out on the kitchen floor. No, it's two doughnut-shaped cat caves that I bought the cats. I need to buy them more toys, but given that they have no concept of Christmas, it doesn't matter when.

Hmm. Someone is selling a nice wall clock with a pendulum. I might get it for the library. The only thing is that I'll have to wind it. Though actually, would the chimes bug me and any fish that I get? Actually, I found one without a pendulum and chimes on eBay that I like. It has roman numerals and is see though. There's also a similar one on Amazon.

Yay. Major accomplishment. I found and made an appointment with a psychiatrist. I have to go to Danville (app. 30 minutes away) for the first appointment, but then I should be able to see her (?) in Urbana.

Now I need to make a dental appointment. Done! The earliest that they could get me in is in February (but that's a good sign).

I think that I'm too wiped out to go to Dial-A-Carol. I checked, and there are a bunch of other people signed up though. I need to get the recycling and garbage out and go to bed early.

Hmm, I need to mail my dad and his wife's Christmas card, so I think that I'll get up early and run to the post office before work. It'll probably still be late, but I tried.

Got the recycling out for pickup tomorrow. I also need to get garbage out, but I missed the pickup, so I’ll do that tomorrow.

I've been looking at Jacuzzi tubs for the warm bathroom, although that is low on my priority list, but it probably would help my back and shoulders. (Something has to happen to the tub because it's the ugliest tub ever. It's orange with bleached out parts of it. And it's shallow.) The one that I would like costs around $2500 plus installation. I'd also need a basement sink to wash litter boxes in because right now, I use the tub.

I'm seriously thinking of going to bed before 8 PM.
