I NEED a pic of this chihuahua. Also, I felt that “less aggressive shove” in my soul 🤣

Compared to you, Anna. I lead a boring life. Gave myself a third whack at the snooze button, debated doing a 30-min yoga (a shorty would be all I had time for because of the snoozes), then decided nah. I can do yoga after work today. I'll make a smoothie instead (which basically take a lifetime to make, espesh if you're peeling ginger). Made it to the office five mins early (getting better at making that smoothie), and can't believe it's not yet 11 AM (Pacific Time). Can't believe it's only Wednesday, either. And I FULLY DENY that it's November. WTF? Have a great day, Anna. xo

Being loved by cats and dog is a gift. Even if you have to endure the giving when you're busy or not in the mood -- maybe there's a pill for that?

Ah yes. The ol' cat hostage trick. I really do miss those days. Morning routine today: his 6am (MST) snooze three times until it's 630. I should just go back to setting two alarms. Get up and wash face/brush teeth, lotion the body, get dressed. Pack my lunch for the day and get to work about 8am (I should've been here at 730am. Shared the elevator with my supervisor this morning. Good times.) Reading this on my lunch break. Will more than likely continue surfing the net until a call comes in. Leave the office at 430. And then Zumba at 545. That's enjoyable portion of my day. After reading your post, that is. :)

Your morning sounds exhausting! I just potter, munch my overnight oats and listen to the crows menacing the blue morning air

having moments with my childish selves (allegedly giving them voice. however, eyeballing them at the whiney notes. they skitter into the spidery corners. coax out a bit with promise to listen. they don't want to talk now.... familiar? cat catches my eye, easy sitting on my keyboard. she and the other pets look meaningly to their bowls. I already did. no you didn't. I did. you didn't. Did. Didn't...) when this rode in. [no] thanks for the distraction! I'd send a cat snap but this won't allow it. I'll text it.

LH Friday? <3

I have 5 cats (my husband enables me) & it’s always something with them. Last week it was ‘4 cat cold’ in the house since 4 were on the bed My daily pill routine includes pro/prebiotics, vitamins, fish oil & turmeric (for joint pain). Most importantly- HRT since I was tossed into menopause last year after a complete hysterectomy. Husband teases me but I did remind him that the HRT prevents us from being on the news after he annoys me 😆. Aging is so much fun. My cats were surprisingly considerate of my abdomen when recovering from surgery- someone sat with me on the couch at all times I think it was the blanket on me but I tell myself it’s because they like me
