Good morning my friends! Podrick tried to get me up early, but no, not today. I pushed him out of the room and closed the door. It took a minute or so to fall back asleep, because I could really breathe. I’m very stuffed up this morning. But I did, and it was glorious. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to “sleep in”.

Coffee has been brewed, and the kittens have been fed. Pippin didn’t have a lot to eat, but I’m sure she’ll begs Crystal throughout the day to have a snack.

Yesterday wasn’t too bad at all. Just wicked slow in the morning. The closer we got to the end of the shift, the people started to come in. Finally something to do.

Podrick is still a crazy kitten. But he doesn’t fly around the house for hours. Heels slowly evolving into morning zoomies, afternoon, and evening zoomies. He still chases Pippin around, but not as much. Yesterday evening, they actually co-existed in the same room. On the same couch. Pippin on my lap, and Podrick over my shoulder.

But he’s still crazy!

We’re awake. Podrick is back to being Podrick. We fell asleep swiftly last night, and orange baby wasn’t doing his usual run of death. I’m pretty sure he just curled up with us and fell asleep around the same time as we did.

I now know what parents feel like when they finally get a day away from their baby. I cleaned the kitchen – keeping the doors unlocked. I cleaned the kitchen table, and puttered around. Pippin really enjoyed a Podrick-free day by hunkering down on my lap for as long as she possibly could. If I was sitting down in the couch, she was on my legs. It’s been months since she’s laid in my legs. Hopefully, she’ll snuggle like that again. If Podrick doesn’t act like Podrick when she’s around.

Back to work this afternoon. It’s a triple block this weekend. Open tomorrow, then go grocery shopping – then all day on Sunday. It’ll be a grind. A grind that I’m not looking forward to, especially Sunday. I’m working with an ADHD addled 15 year old. It’s gonna be a long day. But I’m not looking that far ahead. It’s gonna be a pretty good day. I can feel it.

Happy Friyay everyone! It’s your weekend!

I slept in a little. To me, it didn’t feel like I was sleeping, but mostly l, I think I did. Crystal was up playing on her phone. I tried to snuggle her, as I was, at the time, mostly cold. Podrick was starting to be Podrick, so I picked him up and climbed back into bed. Then almost immediately, I got out of bed, and let Podrick back in while I went to the bathroom.

But, we’re all up now, and we have coffee. The news is playing, and it’s due to possibly be about 20°s cooler than the last week or so here. Winter is coming. but it’s the day to go back to work. I think I’m ready for it. I’ve had about 3 days off, so I’m ready. It’s gonna be a good day and we’re both gonna kick some ass today!

It’s been a really nice time off. We didn’t do a lot, but got a lot of things done and completed. So technically, we were wicked busy all weekend! Yeah, it was a weekend of wrestling, with Smackdown on Friday, Clash in Paris on Sunday, and Raw on Monday. It’s been a weekend for sure. It was just what I needed. Time off with an awesome chick, and two pretty great cats. My life is pretty good.
