Day 111: New Clothes

 

I have to buy some new clothes. I just have to start replacing all the ones with holes in them. I realized all my shirts are really freaking short and I like them to be longer than my crotch. I also need some new shorts as well. But I will keep looking for them as I like ones that have a bit of length.

I have clothes in my wardrobe that I haven't worn in at least 2 years. So, it's time for me to get some new things to wear.

Until tomorrow, remember: Wishing hard doesn't get the job done.

Day 110: Over It

 

Today, I'm over everything. 

I'm over people not listening to a word I have to say.

I'm over being sick and just feeling blah all the damn time.

I'm over my shithead of a cat thinking he rules the roost. He's like a freaking feral puppy and chews on everything in sight... He's 8 years old for crying out loud I thought he would have outgrown that crap by now... Yes, you all know I'm talking about Robson.

Until tomorrow, remember: Tomorrow has got to be better.

Shit happens; so just take another step and move forward.

Day 108: Wall Art & More

 
Dang it... I don't know how many times I have to go mad at Monsoon from drawing on the walls... even making her scrub it all off by herself hasn't deterred her. It drives me bloody bonkers every time I find some. Sometimes she draws good things - Stuff you can actually recognise what it is, but most of the time it is just random scribble... and usually in a red pen either biro or felt-tip pen. The hardest colour in the world to get off of anything.

The soles of my feet are freaking sore today... Probably because I'm fat. But having a stuffed-up thyroid it is hard to lose weight. I did try going to a dietitian, but the way he wanted me to eat was way more that I was used to and I gained weight instead of losing it. So, now I'm back to struggling through it all on my own.

I'm taking it easy today. Because we're still not all better yet, but we're getting there... I just wish I had the energy of the kids. If I could bottle and sell that I would be a billionaire.

Until tomorrow, remember: The voices in your yeah, can be real dicks... or maybe that's only mine.

Day 107: So Damn Tired

 

I can't believe how many days lately that I have woken up tired as hell. Even though getting 6+ hours sleep a night, it is all broken up because everyone is sick. I can't count the times I have gotten up to tend to someone during the night... Even the damn cats are needy. Needing to be cuddled and the centre of attention.

I have the attention span of a goldfish today. I can't seem to focus on anything for long spans. The kids seem to be over their part of the illness that is going around. So, they are all back to their wonderful noisy selves again... Yay what fun.

I tried brushing the long-haired calico cat out, but she wasn't into it. I'm so glad the other two are short haired = much easier to get the burrs out of.

Until tomorrow: Don't do anything of importance while you're so tired ~ You can stuff it up royally.

Day 106: Washing Day

Now that the kids are all sick too, I can't believe how many pairs of underpants per day. Today I'll be washing 73 pairs of the kids (nundies) as they call them.

This is a short and sweet entry as we are still all feeling like crap

Until tomorrow, remember: Take a breath and start again, because gaff taping the kids to a chair is illegal
