Well, I must admit that I am not overly impressed so far with Papa's high speed internet provider. Tuesday evening, they went off line and this is the first chance I have had since then to finally connect to the internet!!!!
I just have to remember that it is what it is and I will adjust.
I must admit, I am typing at a slightly awkward angle because I have a very happy kitty cat curled up on my lap. Zee showed up again this morning and after letting her inside, giving her some food that I picked up, she strolled into our bedroom and took a nap. Later, I guess she was in the mood for some cuddling because she has not left me alone since. She's purring and purring and seems to be just as happy as she can be.
We were in the sun room and St. Cloud showed up at the glass door and the second he saw Zee his hair began to stand up straight and I could hear him growling and hissing at her right through the door. It was a little disconcerting, I must admit, but we'll figure out how to keep them apart. He also must have been really pissed off that she was inside and he was out. I have discovered in less than a week that he loves to go in and out of doors constantly. He wants to be out 5 minutes and then cries to come back in. Then he goes to another door and cries to go out, and seconds later, cries to come back in. Big ole' baby!!!!
Other than that, for the past few days, I've been trying to take a little extra care of myself. Pumpkin passed her cold around to everyone and although Monkey and Parrot seem almost over it, it is really beginning to wreck a bit of havoc with my head and more especially my throat. It feels as if I have swallowed course sand paper that got stuck and every time I try to swallow I am aware of it, causing me to feel as if I want to vomit. Gotta admit, it's rather annoying.
Honey again, is going through another round of problems where he works. He said the other night he was just sick of the whole thing and wishes that he had never taken the supervisor job. He should have stayed on the truck instead.
He was told by "higher-ups" that he should get a few roofing jobs lined up for the summer, so he did. He was told that his crew would get a bonus for doing it. Well, now there is no money in the budget for the bonus. His crew got upset when they heard this. His crew chief told Honey that he was just plain sick of the place and was looking around for another job. Why, he asked Honey, would his risk his neck up on a blipety blipety blank roof for $11.25 when he could go out and do it himself and get $25 an hour?? Why indeed.
And today he has to go to some mandatory supervisor "feel good" seminar, which he ABSOLUTELY HATES! Let's hope for the rest of the group that they don't do those Ridiculous get to know each other games. If so, I pity them, I really do.....
Did I say I had trepidaiton when he took this job? Did I agree with his decision, or did I say, we'll just wait and see...? I can't remember. I want to say I did, but it could just be because that is the way I am feeling about it now. He makes me nervous when he gets this annoyed, this ticked off. And unfortunately, although he does not mean to, he lets out steam in the safety of home. He is creative and intelligent enough that he could maneuver around that place and get what he wants done, but his frustration is clouding his judgment.
From my stand point of needing some stability and balance and growth toward our goals, it makes me nervous. So with him letting off steam and me being nervous but trying to take things in stride, it just feels like an accident waiting to happen. I'm doing my best not to worry. What will be will be, right? There's no real sense to worry when I don't even know quite what to worry about.
