Jan. 4th, 2021 05:48 pmI woke at 4:30 am today and just couldn't get back to sleep, so am flagging a little right now. Many coffees have been consumed today.
After a doctors appointment first thing James is back on strong antibiotics again. He was supposed to be at work for 10 but had to phone and tell them he'd be in late. Unfortunately, he got through to a team leader he really doesn't like. I do suspect their personalities clash a little, but she can also be very unsympathetic, and today asked if he really needed to go to the appointment. This is despite having clear notices in his work file that due to his medical issues he's automatically allowed time for hospital and doctors appointments. In the end, he was less than an hour late, but it's days like today that show moving to a less stressful role was the right thing to do.
I made a rookie mistake recently in terms of cat care. Milo has had a bit of nausea lately, probably because of his steroids, so is on anti-nausea meds. This means he needs two tablets a day. He'll take them easily when inside a pill pocket, and he loves the ones from the vets, but they cost £15 for a bag of 45. So, when he was first put on the steroids I thought I'd see if I could get them online cheaper. I discovered that I couldn't, but could buy another brand for a bit cheaper on Amazon. So, last time he was close to running out I bought some of them, and he enjoyed them. Great I thought, and this time when he needed the anti-nausea too I looked again and saw I could buy 3 bags for much cheaper, same brand but different flavour. I imagine any cat owner will see where this is going. Apparently, this new flavour is poison and he won't entertain them, and I have 3 bags of the things. I'll try again tomorrow but if turns up his nose again I'll have to suck it up and buy the expensive vet version as he needs his meds.
I'm very much enjoying Snowflake already, especially so as I've had awesome people encouraging MCR gsf thoughts, Mikey, Chris, Clint, Aramis in a boyband thoughts and Clint/Mikey thoughts. You all know how you are! And thank you for that :D
Those thoughts are much better than wondering what Boris is going to say at 8.
