I do not wish to be awake right now, but apparently, it was time for me to get up (according to my body and brain). It's weird. Some days, I can lay in bed and doze for an hour or two even if I'm awake, and some days I must get up right then. If I try to lay there, my brain will devour itself, and I'll get twitchy. So, rather than flip around in the bed like a dying fish and waking up Jess, up I get, at 6:30am on a Saturday. Tomorrow at 6, I will undoubtedly be very sleepy and want to nap when I have to get up for work.

Maybe part of it is that we actually have things to do today. We have to work in a trip to the dispensary to pick up Jess some more edibles for bedtime, and then we have a game at 4pm. It's not that much to do, and the dispensary doesn't open until 10am, so there's no rush on any of it, but it might be enough to jump start my brain.

Yesterday, we watched GBBO which was good, yet sad as Jurgen was eliminated. Next week is the final, which is also sad, as I really enjoy my Friday viewings. I also started Red Notice, but didn't get very far into it. So far, it seems relatively unobjectionable. I get the feeling it's going to coast of the likability of it's stars, but when you've got both Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson, I guess that's understandable.

In addition, I was semi productive yesterday, making a trip out to get cash for the dispensary, gloves for Dad's colostomy bag and my prescription, so I didn't have as much "must do something" urges later in the day.

Honestly, my biggest accomplishment yesterday is that I did not commit patricide, even a little bit. Dad was particularly obnoxious in the evening, to the point that Jess considered leaving and taking a walk in the freezing cold. I was considering shoving one of the lovely Bob Evan rolls down his throat. (As I forgot to give him one with his meal, and when he found out they were there after, he was very sarcastic and obnoxious.) According to Jess, he only gets like that with me, so Yay, I'm special? It drives them crazier than it would if he was rude to them. Though then I'd probably be up his ass about it more.

And look, I know things are not ideal. We haven't been able to afford to get the cleaning service out to look at the basement, and it's fucking cold in the house with just heaters. And he's sore from bad knees and back. But it's not ideal for any of us. I'm hoping to get them out once I get my bonus so that we can get an estimate and plan for whatever we need to do for the clean up. Then, we can get BGE in to replace the meter, turn on the gas, and get the nice plumbers to hook everything up and get it started. But it's a process, and in the meantime, we're all going to be cold. I'm finding that since I lost the weight on Rybelsus, I'm feeling it much more myself, so yes, it sucks, but it's not like it's something we're doing it specifically at him.

Sorry, the last couple of days, my posts have been mostly bitching. But game today! We shall have D&D! It shall be lovely and fun. And my turkey dinner will be here this morning, and that will be good. It'll have plenty of time to thaw out in the fridge! And we'll see if the pumpkin cheesecake will last until Thanksgiving!

Okay, everyone have an awesome Saturday!
