My least medicatable cat has developed an upper respiratory infection. This animal has been in a carrier twice in her life- once when she was captured, and once when she was spayed. She enjoyed neither experience. I gotta figure out how to get some gabapentin into her tonight.

I need to do a hazardous waste disposal run, an expired medication disposal run, and a whole lotta hard pruning and weeding.

Turned off the AC to be able to hear the rain on the bathroom skylight. I hope it soaks in enough to soften the dirt so I can weed this weekend.

Today I got to enjoy cat pee on a couch, a full clean and change of all 3 cat boxes, cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming, cleaning the kitchen sink, the utility sink overflowing all over the garage, and a short jaunt to a very overwhelming fabric store. I had exactly one of those things on my calendar.

Bestie’s area in NC is under a flash flood warning and I don’t know enough about her actual physical location to know how alarmed I should be.
I’m sure this is how she feels when she knows California is on fire.
