IT'S OFFICIAL: THE CAT ROOM IS DONE!!!

I need a little recovery time, but then it's onto packing clothing. And of course, I will be emptying all the kitchen cabinets on Tuesday for when the exterminators come, and some of that crap can be packed, too.

After yesterday's activity, the infusion, and no nap, I was looking forward to sleeping in for a change, but...
My husband woke me up at 5:30 this morning to tell me he overflowed the toilet, but had to go to work, so it was my problem to deal with. You all know I have some serious issues with OCD, so you can imagine what I was doing and how my morning went...

I stopped by the realty office for the new place to see if I could nail down a move-in date, but was disappointed. I probably won't have a definitive answer until early next week. The assistant property manager did say they like to allow residents to move in on the weekends before the 1st if it falls on a weekday, but she still wasn't sure when the apartment would be ready. There is at least some HOPE that we won't be moving out/in under the gun, but it would be really nice to know when we are actually moving... big source of anxiety.

Yesterday I wasn't able to wash the bath mats or Corey's slippers, which I wore during the dirty part of the cleaning process (his s***, his slippers), because I had an appointment to get my hair cut at 9am. I guess I will have to try to get into the laundry room to do that today, but it's very busy on weekends. I HAVE to be OKAY with just washing them because I don't know what color the new bathroom is yet, and don't want to waste a lot of money buying things that won't match. Our current bathroom, for example, has a blue tub and blue tiles.

I need to see the apartment before I can buy other things, too...
The guy in our new apt. moves out on Tuesday and the lady in the office said she could bring me over there to look at it some time next week. I hope we can find a time when Corey will be able to come too, but his work schedule is unpredictable. I could say "after 3," but I don't know how well that would go over with her, or have to gamble on a time hoping he can somehow free himself up earlier than normal.

I bought a carrier off Chewy.com yesterday. I hope the fat kitties fit in it. They were getting impatient with me trying to repeatedly position and measure them with the ruler lol. I still have time to buy a bigger one and send this one back if it's too small, but I think it's the same size as the other one.

I've been up since 4:30am. I want to shoot the ****ing birds outside my bedroom window... they get going around 3:30, and I swear there's a million of them. I have soooo many things to do today, and wish I could make use of all this extra time, but I have to be quiet because everyone else is sleeping...

Kay,
I can relate to the birds. I remember one time when I reached out trying to grab a branch close to my window and shake it. Didn't help.

Good luck with your new apartment. Moving is so much work; but once it's done there will be a good feeling of relief.

That's funny, Gerry
I was up at the same ungodly time again this morning. I'm going to start wearing earplugs!!!

I went to the supermarket on Saturday and it was a zoo, as it always is on the weekend. When it gets like that, I often put my cart off to the side and walk off with my "cane" so I can get to the things I need more easily, but...

I fell because some ***** ran me over with her cart! I was really lucky I wasn't seriously hurt, and was able to get up on my own. There was a big to-do... lots of nice people trying to "help." The assistant store manager wanted to call the EMT's (that's their policy), but I did a lot of singing and dancing to convince him not to, and just signed a form saying I refused medical treatment. The whole thing was ****ing embarrassing and I was shaken up.
But when the dust cleared, I went back to my cart, picked up bread, cookies, and an ice cream cake (I buy one every year for our birthdays/anniversary), and paid for my groceries LOL... there was NO ****ING WAY I was going through all of that for nothing. They had a kid help me put the groceries in my trunk.

I'm still sore and have bruises on various areas on my right side, but I'm okay. I was very lucky. I haven't been out since, but I know I'll have confidence issues when I do. And I will definitely be more careful from now on. Not that it was my fault... she hit me in my backside.

So, we didn't end up going out yesterday to celebrate our birthdays and (10th) anniversary. I'm disappointed, but neither one of us felt up to it. I never got around to doing laundry or packing anything this weekend either. I think the universe is conspiring against me with all these delays.

I have to take my husband to the DMV this morning because he let his license expire. I hope to get that laundry done when I get home. I also have to start emptying out the cabinets to prepare for the exterminators' visit tomorrow, but I can't do it all until tonight/tomorrow morning. Some of it can stay packed up, but a lot of it will have to go back in the cabinets.

I'm so glad you didn't get really hurt. Like broken bones type.
That is what would have happened to me. I'm glad you could
turn down the ambulance ride too.
