I don't know what it is

[katesthoughts]

 

I don’t know what it is but I am feeling better today than I have in a few days.  The sun is shining and I think its well into the 70s at this point.  Partial clouds but no rain expected.

Yesterday turned out great.   There was a power failure on the campus that made connecting through VPN hard and for the others to use epic and I thought I would miss the Embracing change class.    I didn’t.  The power outage seemed to be resolved by the end of the business day.

So the class was very good.  I had to sign into the zoom with my email and password and connect through Facebook.  It used my profile picture and I later found I could undo it to be live.  I was afraid I messed up on the zoom log on for future zoom activities.  We will just have to see.

I learned a lot from this class it has a lot of good tips and information on dealing with change.  I just have to remember to do the work for these classes prior.  As usual when they ask this questions to rate yourself I always feel I am all encompassing.  I can’t compartmentalize myself.  We had the class until 3:15.  A rain storm came through for most of it.

After the class I got a notification from a fellow Dem who told me a hacker got to my email again (and this time I also received it) I did a check and it seems okay.  I probably will have to change the password for the Gmail because it says the one I use to sign up to the computer seems fine.  But the point is I reset the outlook portion for my Gmail account.  Don’t ask me how I did it but I think I just winged it (followed the instructions without panicking.)

The storm that came through was a thunderstorm and a little lightening but the claps of thunder scared Sky so much he ran upstairs and missed his dinner.  Tiger ate both of their dinners.  When he finally came down again I gave him more but had to shoo her away.

I think I am overcompensating still with the cats.  I fed them treats at least twice yesterday.  I made sure I was gentle with them both in tone and voice and kept picking sky up to the point where I imagined him saying be gone.  I check on them every chance I get.  I pet them and reassure them they are loved all the time.  Tiger still finds ways to run or semi hides but allows me to pet her.  They both rub up against me. Right now they are both sleeping or relaxing under the beds.  A part of me worries (too much you will probably say) they will do things in spite (the peeing on various things), make messes all around.  They threw the litter out of the downstairs box so that had to be vacuumed.  I know it will be justified.  I don’t want to be a bad parent.  This is why I don’t have human children.  So that’s my neurosis for today.

The rain was starting to let up as I was making my way to the meetup.  There were about 7 of us. One of the ladies I met on our Lavender farm meetup.  There were others supposed to come but they had declined for one reason or another.   I broke down and got some frozen yogurt.    JackieB came later with pastries for Cyn’s birthday.  We had a great time talking about a lot of different things. 

I left around 8 with every intention of going to the gym. However I got back to town by 20 of 9 and couldn’t remember if the gym closed at 9 or not.  Google says it was open to ten but by then I was tired.  I could have gone but I was unsure.  I thought I would go for a walk but no.

When I got home did the normal routine.  Got the garbage and recycle stuff out and made tea and headed to bed.  I did end up doing some stuff on the computer but ended up sleeping.

Today so far did some odds and ends, including bills and updating files.  I still have lots more to do.  Of course the early morning routine was good this time I feel asleep for an hour and it felt good.  The kitties were doing their own things. 

I called JOC to see if she wanted to walk but she had too much to do this week so we will make it another time.  I did tell her I am going back to work next week and I let her know I may have things to do in the evenings. So we agreed it would be one day at time or even on the weekends.

Well I need to go for now so see ya.
