Cat is home. Dental surgery went well. She should have no more problems there. We also got the confirmation that our sweet little girl has cancer, the inoperable kind. We will know more next week, like if there is a treatment, but either way her remaining time with us will be short.  Forgive me if I'm a little more cynical than usual in the coming weeks. 

 

 

 

Always rough when you hear the words that your beloved furry family member gets sick like that. At least, you have a vet that you can rely on when it comes to these times. Hopefully she'll live out her remaining days as pain free as she can. I know you'll take good care of her during it. You've given her a great life & she in return gave you the same in return.

 

Decent night at the FLGS. Store closed early (again, seems like this is becoming a trend for them???), around 6ish the store was packed with MtG players playing & rpgers waiting for games & customers, so who knows. I know the other rpg table, their DM cancelled but he posted on the Discord for the store. Considering that some people don't use it, they were rightfully POed that they didn't find out till they got there (this being Richard, who yes is a "Richard", but he also has to drive 2 hr roundtrip to play in the game, so totally understandable). The DM is (or was I should say) in my Saturday game, but he bowed out this morning, citing he is in too many games. Which, he is as he seems to be his group's DM when it comes to playing. He lives in a group home for adults, so something I'm sure is up. Tbh, now I'm probably looking into this with the wrong view, but seems like the caretaker/PiC of that home must feel like I've done something to wrong him (which again would be odd, as I've always been pretty good with the guy), but I felt it started when I asked him to join my Satuday game, as he said he'd try to make but he was busy with something going on. One thing that got me thinking was him saying he was gonna play, but at the last moment he was meeting with a contractor that Saturday (hmmm). Also, one guy that played in my Saturday game awhile back hasn't been able to show up for months now, & now this guy. Again, I hope I'm just over-estimating this & just chalking it up as, he needs to cut back on his gaming.

 

Anyways, my game, ran ok. It seemed like to take forever thou, as I felt the players were out of sync. One guy, I felt took way to long to decide what he wanted to do when it was his turn (I need to address that next week, I think). A couple players didn't show up with full character sheets made, as this was my level 1 game to help get people to the Golden Ticket game at the end of the year (not the Saltmarsh game  we are running mainly). I decided at the end of the session, that with the store closing & us kinda getting a late start, I'd run next week this game to finish it off for them (tbh, they barely even made it halfway through the adventure itself). We had a good time thou, just I didn't feel like it had the same vibe as previous games we've played there.

 

No new Unpainted releases, owner did say it was suppose to be here already, so hopefully it just delayed a bit. There is a few things I ordered in it, but nothing I need right away (I just want the figures ).

Welp. Spent too much money today. The rest of the money is going into savings. Good thing I don't have the card number memorized or I'd be in (more) trouble.

 

Spending until Monday at my mom's place. Hoping to get this sewing project done. I realized today that a package I "received" last week was delivered to the wrong house in the neighborhood and I dunno what to do about it. I've asked on the community page if anyone knows the house/people who live there and no one has been helpful. It was delivered on the 10th so I'm not sure if I'm getting it to me at this point. I really needed that stuff (sewing machine oil and *expensive* thread) I don't want to order it again but if I desperately need to I will.

Regarding me being bitten by a tick, the medical assistant from our Base told me no need for preventive antibiotics since it wasn't on my skin for a long period.

If it's shorter than 24 hours, no need, and it was maybe half an hour max, also no swollen tick, no blood and no reaction as of yet.

Antibiotics might cause side effects and about 30% of the people react to it while the chance of getting Lyme disease over here is about 3%.

If I do get a reaction now or later, treatment with anitbiotics will suffice she told me.

Glad to hear it.

Just so y’all know, a toddler falling asleep in you is worse than a kitty. Aside from the cute factor, if you wake the toddler up there’s a good chance it’ll throw a tantrum. What’s the cat gonna do? Meow indignantly? Pft.

So, we had about two inches of rain....in the house....we've got a notable leak if the rain comes in hard enough, and it is a problem. -sigh- and of course of course, it is still raining, so no one really wants to go out on the roof and see if we can figure out where and why and how it is coming in.

I'd just go knock on the door. Had that happen more than once.

Ah, good.  I have a friend who's had Lyme twice.  If you start to get a fever or hot/cold flashes, call your doctor.

No, they look at you with big sad eyes and whimper.  

 

Not only can you drop cats on the floor you can leave their food there, and go off on vacation for a week without some govt agency getting on your backside about it.
