I admit I'm adopting the momma cat I fostered. She's getting spayed as soon as her kittens stop nursing; the vet says they don't want to do the surgery until two weeks after the kittens are weaned. Three of the five are going to a friend's no kill private animal shelter later today and I'll be glad that they will have a chance to find someone to love them and keep them well fed. (I hope all of them become house cats, that they will never have to starve and scrounge for chipmunks and moles and bugs like their mother.)
I admit that the others I cannot adopt or foster...ones whose bone structure screams of malnutrition...are painful for me to look at. It's hard minding my own business and letting the struggle for survival go on without my interference. Yes, I fed that horribly gaunt cat I saw visiting bo's porch for two days to get it over the bad slump it was in; it's doing better now and I am NOT going to kidnap it and take it to the vet and try to find it a home. There will always be an endless supply of homeless cats (and cats with dumb ass owners) and nothing I do will ever change this.
I admit that bo's home has two dungeon rooms now. Whenever his surgeries and complications are finally behind him we're going to start hosting play parties again. The new spanking bench turned out beautifully, the hoisting thingy is great and so is the e-stim. The newest e-stim accessory...yeah, wow. [;)]
I admit that I'm so used to using restraints that learning to use ropes has me feeling like an idiot. Our money is tied up right now and we cannot buy the ropes we'd like, and with bo's surgeries and complications (abdomen got infected from second implant insertion) I've felt he's too fragile for me to use as a rope bunny. I forgot EVERYTHING from the past demonstration. We're going to another lesson/demo/whatever soon and I hope they start at the beginning instead of assuming that I know what the hell I'm doing.
I admit that I love how beautiful some of the rope work designs look. I didn't think I would ever get into this but it's got my brain abuzz and bo's as well.
I admit that several friends have been on my mind a lot lately. One is doing better, another is better financially but working through some traumas (her house burned down last year), and another...I am very worried about. I hope she isn't dead. It hasn't helped that bo's mother is going downhill fast, AND...one of my ancient cats had to be put down this month. So much sorrow and pain. I'm glad it's mostly not my own but even then...sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in it.
I admit that I'm dragging my feet about finishing up my DVD and VHS tape inventory and I still have five more full crates to go through. Then I need to start inventorying DVD seasons of old tv shows. I don't have the empty table space to start sewing until this other chore is finished and...I'm dying to start sewing! VHS tapes I've had in storage for years are often needing to have dead or living spiders removed, dust, dust bunnies (lots of cat fur here) and sometimes the occasional sticky residue from a sticker. Then I have to search the VHS and DVD inventories to make sure it's not a double of one I already logged in. If it's replacing an old, damaged one, or being upgraded from a VHS to a DVD, I need to log the VHS out of the blue or green or red books (blue for paper boxes, green for plastic cases, red for ones so moldy I tossed them out) and write them in under the appropriate book (I have a black notebook for DVDs, lol). Yes, I do have thousands of movies and yes, if I'm to avoid buying doubles and triples of a movie I already own I NEED to keep an inventory.
I admit that logging in a DVD case that has 4 to 12 different movies drives me nuts; I'm afraid of messing up my books in a multitude of ways. (A tiny "The" has messed me up many times, I've put it under the next word instead of in the "T" pages, and sometimes I've dyslexed and have written the same movie in twice and cannot see the one I keep skipping, aargh.)
I admit that there are many things I plan to do in the next few months and I don't know if my energy is up to the tasks...but I'm going to try anyway. Housework is less boring than sit ups. [;)]
