Bits of brain fluff
Nov. 7th, 2024 11:09 amI woke up early and not feeling well (spleen? referred liver? pain). I did overeat some yesterday since I was grumpy for obvious reasons which any overeating gets that general area annoyed so need to not do that, like ever. Anyway, doing a sneaky WFH this morning as a result.
The boy is still very clingy, confused, and vocal so trying to mitigate that. I did get him a new bed with high sides that I put in the living room and he loves it. I also got him a taller and wide ceramic bowl since he's a tall boy and even his usual raised bowl seemed a bit short and he's doing very well with that. Since he's seeming bored, I also got some dangle toys and has been playing some. On the downside, the little doofus unfortunately scratched and tore a small wound under his ear yesterday so I had to wrangle a bit to put some kitty antiseptic on it and trim his back claws.
Got a message while I was in a meeting yesterday that they'll be sending Junie's cremains out by UPS possibly today and that I'll need to sign for them when they arrive. Hopefully I get an email with the tracking information so I can make sure to be here.
Been feeling very pulled to witch-type things so going to continue to drift that way. Anything to try to influence control over things in these newly dark times couldn't hurt.
Got a call from the sister last night that the hospice nurse says things are getting closer with Dad. I've tried calling him twice today on the new phone that they put in for him but no answer yet. I'm wondering whether he will answer. I did at least get to see and talk to him for a few minutes via facetime the other day and thanked Sis and BIL for that. Never did get a response from the brother. Fine with me. Also according to Sis, for some reason his stay in the hospital for the hip break was covered by Medicare and so there's an issue with him having "too much money" and she needs to spend it down for Medicaid purposes. She went ahead and prepaid for his final plans so that's arranged.
