Ugh....

The morning comes...
Conspicuously creeping into my slumber.

Yesterday was a very long, exhausting experience.
Two very necessary out of town appts simply drained me. They are done now, and I am relieved.. Next week promises even more significant events... I am confident but wary.

All of me is spent.

I feel asleep, I think before ten last night..something that hasn't happened in months.
Something else that hasn't happened in months.. I slept until like 6:00. A.M.
That's HOURS more than I usually sleep at once lately...Most times, I sleep about three or four hours at a time... sometimes I am tired..sometimes the drugs keep me juiced...

Cooked a real dinner last night, from scratch. Haven't done THAT inna while either. It came out awesomely ;) and I am stoked. I love to cook, and although it was tiring, it was also therapeutic.

Next week promises even more significant events...
Players are sublty grinding heals into the soil, surveying the field... the game is stepped up a bit this time 'round. The stakes are high, each step needs be measured, calculated.
I am confident, but wary.

An awful whining voice left our home last night....
A vagabond immature feline pitifully appeared near our patio a few days ago...
My young daughters cheerlfully went out to greet this thing and presto, we own a cat. (grumble grumble...)

It wasnt entirely well and they attempted to nurse it to a better place.
It was washed and fed and smothered...and now needs a home.

The younger daughter freeked when I called the city pound...
When the guy arived to take the thing.. we decided to keep him and try and find him a home oursleves... He was required by law to take pics and info in the event someone actually came looking for this thing, but said we could, keep him, find a home for him, or turn him in to them in no more than 7 days as a stray. After that, he was ours.
A few quick phone calls made by my kid, and she found him a family...
(whew!)

Anyway...


Off to my day...
