audhd chronically ill sleepyhead with 5 cats, a creative urge, and a desire to be a good human
Philippe really loves sitting on the little couch.
Cats are biologically just very sleepy guys, but humans have an innate desire to wake them up and hassle them (because of cuteness). It's no wonder they have a bit of a reputation for being sassy! I would kill anyone who started petting me while I was trying to get my daily 18 hours of sleep.
Busy day but I had to drop in for #WhiskersWednesday with another photo of Peridot in my lightbox!
This is Ruby's school photo.
Help! Tabitha is being too beautiful!
It's Philippe's 4th gotcha day! This amazing boy started out as a foster for us. He'd been surrendered to the shelter due to chronic tummy problems. It was our job to take care of him while we sorted that out, but we fell deeply in love with him and he had to stay with us. Here's a baby pic!
The giver and the gift. (Ruby continues to bring me this toy.)
Checking in for #WhiskersWednesday with an old photo of one of our fosters, Fluff. Baby whiskers!!!
MONDAY MOOD. It was a busy weekend and I'm so tired.
Overheard at the doctor's office as an old guy was leaving--
Receptionist: Did she ask you to come back?
Old Guy: No, she never wants to see me again.
(One of my favorite things in life is old people with snappy comebacks. He had great comedic timing.)
For #ThrowbackThursday here's a batch of foster kittens from several years back! We called them the Beanie Babies and their names were Lentil, Chickpea, Butterbean, and Jellybean. They were the only bottle babies we ever fostered and I loved them SO much!
This tree is inviting you to come sit down.
Phone calls are so difficult for me. Even simple ones!! I need to call my allergist and reschedule my next monthly shot. It should be incredibly straightforward. And yet... Here I am procrastinating and feeling anxious! It's almost like I'd rather show up in person and ask about it. I'm not sure why calling is so hard.
Last night I thought about doing a dramatic forward roll off the couch while talking to my husband, just to make him laugh. Then I thought better of it because my back was really messed up last week and I don't want to hurt it again.
This means I'm getting older and more fragile, but on the other hand I'm also getting WISER and making fewer mistakes with my body.
It felt like a real milestone in aging.
I think of a lot of things when I'm walking
I think of a lot of things walking home
I say them aloud to myself I am talking
I talk to myself when we are alone
