Chewlee was dropped off early this morning while her mother went in for her three hour test. She wasn't told results, I gather, since her doctor had to see them first. I'll have to call her tomorrow to find out what she found out.
Chewlee spent most of her morning with the Beast because I had a bad night with little sleep so I was sleeping most of the morning. I DID hear when the Princess got here to pick up Chewlee and I got my hug from her before she left. She had no complaints about the Beast so I gather everything went okay. The Beast told me that she had some of the spaghetti he had made and asked for a second one...*shock! shock!* Then, when the Princess got here and ate some spaghetti herself, Chewlee had a THIRD bowl of it! Now THAT is a real incredible event here. She is usually so damn picky that you have a hard time feeding her anything that she doesn't complain about and take her time finishing. The Beast feels like he got a Gold Medal for his efforts...LOL!
Dennis and Di have a friend of theirs that has come to stay with them for a week. Another RV-er. This one is ex-military and also an ex-FDLE officer who is now retired. Since Dennis came over as soon as he found out they were within an hour of being here, the Beast gave them the pot of spaghetti he had just made (less a bowl he saved for me). He figured that way they could visit and Di wouldn't have to worry about cooking for tonight anyway. What are friends for, right?
I had my spaghetti and some Italian bread then found myself tired out still so I lay down for a nap. I went out like a light! I slept until 9:30pm and woke up feeling groggy as hell! I pretty much have forced myself to stay up for a while so I can go back to bed and maybe tonight get some good sleep. Part of my problem last night was leg cramps and we have all had those so you know how painful those can be. I finally gave in and took a pain pill (one of my stronger ones) and those knocked me out but it didn't really help me sleep well. I woke up feeling nauseous as hell and very dehydrated. I must have made myself drink about three 16 oz. glasses of water to try to get over that feeling.
After I ate, I called my friend, Carol, in San Francisco. She had tried to call me twice yesterday but I just couldn't drag my butt out of bed to answer my phone. She was totally shocked but said I was a real stinker for not letting HER call ME since she gets free phone calls all over the world. You KNOW the service she uses, of course. It's on TV all the time. Anyway, I told her it was only costing ME minutes and wasn't going to cost me extra. We just talked about this and that, nothing special, really. But it was nice to hear her voice. When we were done talking is when I went back to bed.
I found out that it was almost the same as far as sleeping went with Bratfink! Too funny that we both had bad nights and spent a lot of the day sleeping. I really DO want to get reoriented into a regular type sleep schedule. It's just a whole lot easier on everyone and I can get more done. I have clothes to wash, dry, fold and put away and I can't do it when the Beast is trying to sleep. This house is just too small for that.
Frost alert here tonight and it's cold enough already to warrant that. I'm just glad I haven't planted any flowers yet. I DID clean out the flower beds on Monday so that we can add the new topsoil in the next week or so. I have a variety of bulbs to put out once we are sure the ground temperature has risen enough (has to be over 46 degrees). With the weather gradually warming, that shouldn't be too long now.
I know other areas of the country are still getting snow. I'm just glad it's not US (sorry, everyone but I just HATE snow!) If it's YOU, I'm sorry, too. That's just awful for it to be this late in March and still having snow.
Love you all. Hope you are having a decent week, regardless. ***Hugs***
