Ugginess
It is early yet and I'm not awake. I had to be up early this morning because I have an 8 am cleaning at my dentist. No big deal, however, I decided to go to bed early. I guess I'm a creature of patterns. Set patterns. If I throw my sleep schedule off too much I screw myself up. Going to bed early to wake up early results in nightmares and I had a doozy of one to wake myself up about 20 minutes ago. The sad thing is that I don't have to be up for another 2 hours.
So I'm sneaking on the work computer (thankfully connected via my network) and I'm here without cats or dogs wanting early food. I have many weaknesses. One of the primary ones is that I can't stand to see something sick or hurting. People, animals, situations, you name it. As stupid as it sounds, I can't walk away, I do what I have to do in order to help or make the situation better. I call it a weakness because if I'm not careful, I can spend my whole life and all of my time doing stupid things like rescuing a moth from the cats or getting up extra early to put out food for the birds, even though it's late summer and there's tons of sources of food for them.
I don't get a lot of time alone lately. As much as I love them, the animals do take up a lot of time. All 5 cats and both dogs are upstairs. My mom is gone all the time and my dad is in his state of being downstairs. So it's pretty much up to me to see to their needs. It can get to you after a while. For example, I'm thankful for this computer because now that I can connect to the internet via my network (over my dish), I can write in my bedroom (I don't allow animals in here at night because of my allergies), and I don't have a little face looking up at me demanding food early. Thrashie (oldest cat, cursed with diabities), will cause a scene if she doesn't get wet food when she wants it (we do leave out tons of dry); and she's figured out that if she makes a stinky potty in the litterbox down the hall, I'll get off my butt to go clean it out (it is the worst smell known to man, and that includes the room clearing gas of one Kevin Adams of Hershey, PA), then, since I'm now up, I'll get around to getting her what she wants.
I do feel bad for admitting that but not so bad that I'm not going to be able to fall asleep again.
