My son, Mustachio, complained today that he worked both tired and hung over. I know he had a few of the hair's of the dog to help him out when he got home and he hadn't eaten yet when we were talking online. I hate when that happens because he gets over-sensitive and misreads things that are said at times. He also can get morose and he DOES have a lot to be morose over. But he seems to be making some strides that way and spends less and less time living in the past.
BUT.....he totally took something I said to him out of context (he didn't read it carefully) and now he's angry with me and probably feels hurt. I did NOT say what he thought I did, however. Now I just have to wait and see what happens with him. We have been such good friends that I hate when this kind of thing happens. Why he thinks I would say anything bad about him (like compare him to his father), I have no idea. I once told him a long time ago that he was NOT like his dad. He felt he could see a lot of his dad in himself. Maybe the stubbornness when faced with a problem but that's about it. He will think and think about it and solve the problem just like his dad used to do but that is IT as far as I am concerned. He doesn't have his dad's capacity for being a bastard and hurting people. He is NOT a control freak, nor is he cruel. If he has a few drinks after work, he is at home and not out endangering people by driving drunk. Usually he does NOT end up with a hangover, either. So today WAS an unusual one for him. I hope he keeps that in mind tomorrow when he wakes up and remembers what he said.
I WAS having a nice day. I spent part of it crocheting on an afghan I started over a year ago. It took me a bit to remember the pattern but I finally got back *into* it. It was very nice and very peaceful to do. It made me remember that I should make one for Sheepie. I want to make one with a new pattern for Gunner, too. I sure have enough skeins of yarn....LOL.
The Beast was on his best behavior today but had a heart attack when he picked up his medication for his eye. It took a few days for the pharmacy to get in since it's both non-generic and very expensive. Even with our insurance (which paid $125. of it), he had to pay $80. He was glad to find out there are no refills prescribed....LOL. I read what it was for and it said infection and pain. It has an antibiotic and a steroid in it. Two drops go into the eye near the outside edge. That's where the little tumor is that the doctor thinks is cancerous. I forgot to ask when the appointment with the retina doctor is and I know he was notified of that this morning. I heard him talking to the doctor's office because he had missed the nurse's original call. I have to remember to ask tomorrow since he's in bed now.
When he used the medication, he complained about how it blurred his vision. It was blurred before he used it but it was worse, he said. I found out he's having a real problem reading things even with his glasses on. Of course, so far, they are just OTC reader's. He won't find out if he needs real glasses until all the work is done on his eyes.
I notice that Baron is almost totally healed of all his boo-boo's. So he will be ready to have his surgery soon. The vet wanted all the problems taken care of before she would do it. I know the Beast is full of doubts about it all because he is worried about Baron being put under anesthesia but the idea of KNOWING he has the problems he does and what it means if the surgery is NOT done is even worse. He will end up doing it but he will be a wreck.
I am heading for bed after I get this posted. I will be doing more crocheting tomorrow and looking for an interesting pattern for the afghan for Gunner. I want to do something different than all the usual ones they do for babies.
Love you all. Hope your week started out well. If you live in NY, I feel badly for you with all the weather is dealing out in your area. Stay warm, dry and do NOT attempt to drive in it! ***Hugs***
