she came to the bed for a while and i petted her. now she is on her perch/ her appointment is at five. I have no idea where she will be. I have a doctor's appointment at 10"20. He will tell me about my a1c. I have been obsessing
about it since my therapist kept on mentioning sugar testing last friday. I have to tell her I castrophize and for her to stay away from medical issues.
It is nice having the keurig back. vanessa made me a delicious dinner and figured out how to put the filter in the keurig. I ate too much. I ate too much wild rice but was okay with jerk chicken and brussel sprouts.she says she doesn't know what she is going to do with me because she likes order

I will try to not lecture you but a 40 pound bag
is just setting you up to fail/fall/hurt your self.
Please don't buy another one.

I can't handle the 40lb containers anymore. Forget about falling... how do you even lift or drag it? Could you ask Robert to split it into 2 20lb containers for you? That's at least better.

Lightweight cat litter is a great idea, but I don't recommend it. Do you remember everything I had to go through to clean the cat litter dust in the "cat room" in the old apartment from using it long-term? I wouldn't use it again if it was FREE.

I hope that your a1c is good when you see the doctor.
And I hope things go well with Abby at the vet.

What a great meal Vanessa cooked for you!
She will get used to your ways and love coming to see you because you are a lovely person no matter how disorganized you are.

Be glad you resisted the Chinese food craving... I had it last night and I've been nursing a bottle of Pepto-Boismol ever since.

I think you can also ask your cleaning help, especially since they have animals to help you get the 40# were you want them. Or like others have suggested get 2 20 # containers and put it in them. But even those need
to be in locations you want them in.

I personally can't lift the 20 # containers and if I'm in charge of the cat litter I have to buy small ones. I just consider it part of being healthy for me.
And since its for a luxury for my animals I think its okay.

the porter brings them up to the apartment and unwraps them and puts them into a corner. I drag them across the floor.
My a1c was fine-a little higher 5.9 and he was happy with my cholesterol. I now can focus all my nerves on abbie and getting her and getting her in the carrier and taking her to the vets and learning what is wrong with her and then hopefully having to treat her which is murder
