I woke up early today but had nothing really planned to do so I just got online, checked my email, replied to one that was important and then started to play my game that I am addicted to playing...LOL! The Princess and Johnnycakes showed up after about two hours to pick up the dining room table and chairs and take it over to the storage area until they are ready to move into the new house. I couldn't find the leafs for it (but later on, the Beast told me one of them is, indeed, stored right underneath the table as the Princess had guessed). All she has to do is open the top and she will see it there. I believe he said both leafs will fit underneath but we never used both of them so he never bothered. He's going to go out to the cottage either tomorrow or Monday to locate it so I can let the Princess know she can pick it up.
I made us some egg salad for our lunch. Funny, but the Princess smelled it when she came over and asked me what I had made. She, however, had a taste for tuna salad but had already packed both her electric opener and her manual one so she made macaroni instead. I had offered her our manual opener but that's when she told me about the macaroni so they loaded up the furniture and left.
I went back to my game until I got tired and took a nap. The Beast was out with his friends from church and didn't get home until around 3pm. He woke me up when he opened the door to my computer room (I was asleep in my recliner). It has a squeak that always wakes me. I got up and made a fresh pot of coffee for us and he asked about Baron's behavior while he was gone. Baron has been sticking inordinately close to the Beast since his return from the Florida trip. It's like he is afraid the Beast is going to leave him again.
As a result, Baron has been sticking close to me (he was asleep by my recliner when the Beast opened the door) when the Beast leaves for one of his church services or his get-togethers with his church friends. I know I am a poor substitute for his *man* but it comforts him that I am here.
I've been putting some Triple Antibiotic ointment on these three spots on his back that looked bad to me. I don't know what was causing them but he had lost hair and the patches were a bit crusty. The Beast has been using an Oatmeal based shampoo on him in an effort to *calm* his skin but that didn't seem to be working. But, I noticed yesterday that the ointment seems to have done the job. Not only are two of the three spots no longer crusty but all three have the hair growing back in. They look much, much better. I'm so glad I tried that on him because it sure makes a difference. Now if the Beast would only get the big fatty tumor taken care of before it turns into something lethal!
Honestly, for as much as he seems to love Baron, I feel he is being incredibly cruel to him by not taking care of that. I think part of it is his fear that something could happen to Baron by being put under anesthesia and the other is that he was told the surgery would cost him $500. It's not going to get any cheaper.
After we ate dinner (salad and another sandwich), I retired to the computer room and went to check on FB again (I had done that earlier in the day). This time I did a bit more scrolling since there were so many repeat posts and I refuse to keep *like*-ing the same posts over and over again. I went to watch a DVD of mine and fell asleep again around 9pm or so. I woke up a bit ago and decided to go ahead and get a post done before I return to bed for the night. It wasn't an interesting or exciting day at all. Tomorrow, it will be a busier one, if nothing else. I have to get out in the cottage and try to locate a couple of my old sweaters since I am sure it will be chilly, at least, when I go to Chicago.
Love you all. I hope you have had a nice weekend so far. Have a really great Sunday. Remember, kindness costs you nothing. We all need some of that. ***Hugs***
