Welcome to week 29!

I slept pretty well last night. I woke up with my alarm and went and made cinnamon rolls for breakfast and ran some over to my Sisters for her, Mom, and Poppa. Then I got dressed to go riding Other Mother’s horse. I asked Fiks if he wanted to come and he said yes after some debating. He got dressed while I looked for me helmet and spurs, and then we loaded into the truck and left to go to Other Mothers. The drive wasn’t bad at all, there was even a wall of fog over by her house, and I said maybe we’d get lucky and it’d be foggy at her house. Fiks looked in the direction of her house and saw blue skies.

Other Mother was working with Mora when we got there, so all we had to do was tack her up and get on her. I’m starting to understand her a bit more. She’s a bit pissy when you first get on her, for like 5-10 minutes, and then she gets better. She was also in heat so we think that made her extra moody today. She kept wanting to stop by Smoke and I told her that he couldn’t help her like she wanted, and applied a little more leg every time we walked past Smoke so she wouldn’t stop. The ride went well, we ended on a good note. Once we were fully done we offered Smoke and Mora some carrots and apples. Smoke loves carrots but not apples, wouldn’t even try it. Mora dug into her apple, she even dropped the few carrots she had in her mouth to get to the apple. Once she had eaten half I put the rest in her trough for her to eat there.

After we were done, we went to the grocery store. Thankfully there wasn’t a lot to get, and it wasn’t too horribly busy. Fiks and I got Panda Express for lunch and then we made our way home. We unloaded the truck and then we ate lunch. I went and took a shower and Fiks played Tears of the Kingdom for the rest of the afternoon. I didn’t mind. I worked on my pictures that he took and then I took a nap.

I woke up and he was still playing Tears of the Kingdom, which was fine. After a while it was time to go over to my Brother’s house for dinner, so he got changed an then we went over for family dinner. Dinner was good, but my eyes were bigger than my stomach, I grabbed way to much food. We played with my Niece for a while and then we made our way home. We put laundry away (which we hadn’t done for a few weeks), and took out the garbage and recycling. Fiks was super anxious for the rest of the evening, not wanting to go to work tomorrow, I can hardly blame the guy. I made sure he was okay before I came to bed and read my book and fell asleep.

I slept pretty well last night. I woke up and found Fiks in bed, so that made me happy and I went back to sleep. When it was time he got up and went to work and kissed me goodbye. I reminded him about his milk and I hoped he had a good day today. Then I snuggled down and went back to sleep because it was like 530/6 when he left. I woke up around 8 and moved to the sofa and watched Cutthroat Kitchen and dozed off and on for a while.

I woke up around 10 and decided to go to the gym, so I ran over my Sisters to make sure Mom and Poppa were okay, and then I left. I had a hard time finding parking, so I’ll have to leave earlier if I want to join the class. I walked in and said I had a gympass membership and I knew there was paperwork to fill out. But the computer wasn’t working properly, so they just directed me in the direction of the yoga class and off I went. I found the class and took off my socks and shoes and grabbed a mat and found a spot.

This yoga class was way different than Crossfit Yoga that Fiks and I did years ago. I discovered that I’m not as strong or flexible as I used to be, and my big gut gets in the way of some moves. But I had a good time and I felt good afterwards, which was a good thing. I came home and watched some TV before Mom’s PT appointment, and then I came back home and relaxed before taking Mom and Poppa to a doctors appointment. The appointment went well, even if we were waiting for 45 minutes to see the doctor. Afterwards Poppa wanted to go to the hardware store and then we hit up the grocery store and then came home.

I flopped on the sofa for a while, until Fiks said he was coming home, then I got up and started cooking. It was a ground turkey and rice dish. Turned out really well. Fiks came home and took a shower while I was cooking, then he jumped on his computer for his Monday gaming group. I turned on Doctor Who (Peter Capaldi’s first season), and watched that while he played.

We talked for a little bit before going to bed and passing out. I don’t even think he read two pages before falling asleep.

I slept pretty well last night, even if it was stupid warm. I woke up and had some pain and nausea, but knew I needed to be at work, so I ate some breakfast and got dressed and made my lunch and left for work. I felt worse when I got there, but I at least needed to try. I guess it was a good think that I went in because today was crazy. One of the Doctors was in a mood and took it out on us. We had a dog eat some rope so we had to induce vomiting to try to get the rope out. He vomited some of it out, but not all. He’s going to need surgery tomorrow to get it all out. Then we had a foxtail search that while in recovery started vomiting and reverse sneezing at the same time (very dangerous). The day was just busy and crazy. I didn’t feel well for all of the day. If I feel the same way tomorrow morning, I think I might call out sick.

When the day was done I came home and checked on my Parents. They were doing well, Mom had gone out to lunch with Other Mother and had a good time. I told them about my day and then I came back home after walking the dog and took a shower. Fiks came hone and we watched some YouTube videos until it was time to go to bed. My brain wouldn’t shut up, so I came out to the sofa and snuggled with Fiks while he was still awake. We dozed there for a bit and then we got up and went to bed.

Once I got to sleep I slept okay. I remember waking up when Fiks did and asking if it was time to go. He said not for me. I snuggled back down and went to sleep. I woke up with my alarms and felt like crap. I texted my manager and asked if I could take the day off, I still wasn’t feeling well from yesterday. I got up and got ready to go into work, having breakfast and then she responded I could. I ate my breakfast and watched Doctor Who and nodded off and on to that most of the morning. I finally felt awake around lunch time.

I went over to check on my Parents and accidently woke them up from their nap. Mom has a nurse appointment in a little while, so I came back home and watched more Doctor Who. I ate a sammich and just hung out basically. I went over to visit Mom and Poppa and found out how her appointment went. Poppa was installing a new handle that my Sister was throwing a fit about the other day. Her and Poppa went driving to the grocery store and Target and I stayed behind with Mom. I was browsing Facebook when I saw an ad for a new Wall-E wallet. I’ve already had that bag on my wish list for a while. I used the credit I had and got them both, basically only paying for the wallet.

Uptown Funk has to be one of my favorite Bruno Mars songs. I found this one on YouTube when I was trying to find today’s song.

I was just hanging out watching Doctor Who and waiting to hear from Fiks when my Sister texted me to come over for dinner. It was pasta and Italian sausage (or as I call it, moink). I had some and then I grabbed some for Fiks and made my way back home after a while. Fiks came home after a while and we sat down and watched YouTube videos while he was eating his dinner. When it was time, I went to bed.

I slept okay last night, even with the heat. I got up and had some breakfast. While I was waiting for my English muffin to toast I made my sammich for lunch and threw it back in the fridge until I was ready. I watched Cutthroat Kitchen until it was time to get dressed. Once I was ready I finished making lunch and grabbed all my stuff and made my way down the mountain to work.

I was kind of dreading work today, since I wasn’t there yesterday and I was hoping it wasn’t too crazy for them. But the girl I’ve been having issues with wasn’t there, so that was nice. It was the other girl that I work with that does whatever she can to get out of work that was there today. Today is also the day that I split between treatment and reception. Treatment came first and I did the call backs, and the day was kind of busy. I felt like it was M and myself rooming everyone, V was just ignoring the flags and files when they came up. So frustrating. I walked back with a dog, looked her straight in the eye, told her a room was open and she should room one of the doctor appointments and she just looked at me and disappeared until the clients had been roomed. I’m only in treatment until 1230 and then I take my lunch so I can relive T at 1. So I asked A if I could leave for lunch and she said okay.

Lunch was fine. I don’t know what happened while I was at lunch, but things in treatment were F’d up. Before I left we had 1 mass removal, a dental, and a foxtail search (the 5th or 6th one of the week). When I went back in from lunch they were still working on the mass removal. Understandable. A came up a little while later and said that they hadn’t started on the dental, the foxtail search was going on and he had an aural hematoma that needed to be dealt with. They were working on the foxtail dog until 230, so no way in hell that they had time to start the dental since we start seeing clients at 3.

The afternoon went by fast, so that was nice. We kept getting rushes and then quiet. We closed up at 530 and then I punched out and made my way home. I dropped off my stuff at home and then I got a cookie and headed over to my Sister’s house to check on my Parents. They were all having dinner. Mom kept wanting to feed me her salad, but I kept turning her down as I ate the croutons. After a while I came home and took as shower and sat down and watched some more Doctor Who.

Fiks texted me that he was on his way home and so I decided to start working on dinner. It was the loaded mac n’ cheese that he had been drooling over last night. I got my timing out of whack so I needed help getting it back on track. Thankfully Fiks was home and had hopped out of the shower in time to help me. He got the shrimp going as I delt with the noodles and mixing the cheese. It turned out pretty good.

We watched some YouTube videos and then we finally got around to watching the new season of The Witcher.

After the first episode we turned to Dropout and started watching Breaking News. Such a funny show and they’re only 5-10 minutes long. I went and to bed when it was time.

I slept okay last night. I didn’t have the greatest start to my day, so it kinda put me in a funk. But I got up and got dressed and went to work. I got to work okay, changed into my shoes and went inside. I punched in and started working. I got to work on a project that my manager wanted done, and spent part of the morning doing that in between phone calls, making appointments, and clients checking out and checking in. I tried numerous times to send x-rays to someone and was unable, and it was close to time for me to leave. Our tech was working on the x-ray computer so I gave the information to G and asked if she wouldn’t mind sending them later. She said sure, and then I packed up my stuff and came home

I came home and got changed and then ran over to check on my Parents quickly and to walk the dog. I came back home, made a sammich and then I sat down to watch Big Hero 6 with my Cousin and her family. Its been so long since we’ve done this, and I miss them a lot. We chatted for a little bit and then we did the countdown and started the movie.

She updated me with what was going on over there. I wish we lived closer so I could help her out. I talked with her about what has been going on with Fiks and myself, getting some outside and different input. We chatted throughout the movie and then when it was their bed time I went over and helped my Parents out for a little while. My Sister was in a mood for some reason. Afterwards I came home and put on Zootopia and fell asleep to that.

Afterwards I watched some Doctor Who for a while. I went and checked on my Parents after an episode and then I walked the dog and came back home to watch more Doctor Who. When I got tired of Doctor Who I put on Umm Actually, until Fiks got home. He was out late, he had to go rescue a driver from being stuck in the sand and bring him and his packages back to the station and load them up. I sent him a message to pick something up on the way home, because I’d been munching and wasn’t super hungry. I stayed up with him for a while and then I went to bed.

I remember kissing Fiks goodbye, then I tossed and turned the rest of the morning. I was able to sleep through my alarms, my first Saturday off in forever. I got up, grabbed a few biscuits for breakfast and then sat down and watched some Doctor Who and dozed off and on for a while. I went over and saw my Parents for a little bit, I had just missed my Sister leaving. They were fine so I came back home and watched a movie I didn’t really pay attention to.

After the movie I put on Cutthroat Kitchen and then I went and checked on my Parents, who were fine, just warm. I came back home because it was cooler and kept it on Cutthroat Kitchen and then I went and took a shower. I took Poppa over to church and I went and hung out with Mom for a while. We watched Yellowstone and then my Sister and Poppa showed up, so I came home and ordered pizza.

Fiks came home right after I ordered the pizza, and went and hopped in the shower. I watched Umm Actually until pizza showed up then I ran my Parents pizza over to their house, then I came home and ate mine. Fiks is sitting on his computer and we’re waiting for gaming to start. It’s just before 9 O’clock…. we’ve just started…. It was short but we had a good time.

Alright. I’m going to leave it here for this week.
