Habibi took a large shit in her cat tower.

Habibi took a large shit in her cat tower. Neither me nor Shaun feel well enough to hose it out at the moment, so we just removed it from her house for now. I think she's bored. Poor sweetheart.

We'll get it cleaned and put back ASAP, but today is not our day.

A little Bear story from Shaun today.

A little Bear story from Shaun today.

Apparently, he's really bad at stealing food, unlike Cubba. 😂

I'm having a little ramble. Feel free to skip this.

I'm having a little ramble. Feel free to skip this.

I've done literally nothing for weeks except put in job applications. I haven't gotten any calls back, so I am going to have to change my strategy. Fun.

Other than that I have rested. Like, deeply rested. Like, "slept 12-15 hour days, laid in bed even awake, done not a single chore" type of rested. I felt like I needed it. It's only the last couple of days that I've started to feel like a person again.

Unfortunately, Shaun is sick. I think it started with allergies, but it turned into a sinus infection. Now he's coughing a bunch. He says he's starting to feel better, and I hope he is. I'm still getting up tomorrow to watch the baby (Bear), so Shaun can hopefully get more rest.

When I went out to water plants the other day I almost lost my wedding band. I guess I've lost enough weight that my ring is slipping off. This is the smallest I've been in at least 7 years. I'm not complaining.

Physically, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm low-energy, but I'm not eating much, so that's probably why. Maybe after the next 15 lbs are gone I'll switch to a maintenance dose of Semaglutide and see about eating more and walking/lifting again. I should probably exercise now, but I don't want to and I can admit that, so... 🤷🏻 It just is what it is. I guess I'm trying to build my willpower back up.

I really miss skating. I need to get myself to go do that again. It's a lot more fun than walking.

I haven't had a haircut in a while. For years I had kept at least part of my head shaved, but here I sit with my scalp covered in hair. It's about down to my armpits now. I keep it bunned up most of the time, so it's not a lot of trouble. I have a silver streak in the front just like my MaMaw had. I think it's actually kind of pretty, but it could probably use a trim.

Scar is so cute. He needs his inhaler 2x day, and since I give him a treat after he breathes his meds, he reminds me now to do it. It's still not his favorite thing, but half of the time when I hold him to give it to him, he's purring and the little valve flap is fluttering, so I'm glad he doesn't hate it. 😂 Forget old dogs - I taught my old kitty cat a new trick! ❤️

I still haven't done Shaun's nails. I am so terrible. He's been tempted to try doing gel himself and it's honestly not hard, but he'd cure it on his skin and give himself an allergy. Maybe when he's not coughing all over the place I can finally get it done.

Goodnight, friends. I hope y'all are doing well.

Shaun took a picture of Bear earlier...

Shaun took a picture of Bear earlier and said he looked like a business man, so he edited the picture.

He's lookin' like an attorney or something. 😂 Y'all please caption this. 😂😂😂

Oh, this handsome Cub! ❤️

"Excuse me, do you have any rats?"

"Excuse me, do you have any rats?"

I haven't posted this kiddo in a while. But she's such a doll.

Did you catch that? She.

Last year, we messed up and fed her on a puppy pad, and she ate part of it. We read that sometimes if handled after a meal, they will regurgitate. We handled her right after eating. We moved her around. We tried a bit to stress her out. She was SO passive. She was SO good. She was holding down her rat pad tortilla, and that was that.

We ended up taking her to the vet, and she was great there, too. They said it looked like she would pass the puppy pad, and she did. Thank goodness. But while at the vet, we found out that our sweet boy, Houdini, was actually a girl.

So now we call her Habibi, which means "beloved."

This is the sweetest kid and we love her to pieces. 😊

She's currently eating in her feeding tote, where she's always eaten except for that once. We learned our lesson. No more rat stinky puppy pads, because she doesn't discriminate when she's hungry. 😂

This Harley cat has been petting himself on me...

This Harley cat has been petting himself on me for the last 10 minutes. He finally settled down thank goodness. 😂

I'm exhausted, but...

I'm exhausted, but I haven't held her in a few days and she INSISTED on lap time tonight. I was trying to make my resume beautiful and she wouldn't stay off my laptop. So I guess she won. It's snuggle time. 😂

We ran some errands today and took the boys with us.

We ran some errands today and took the boys with us. Why are they so cute!? 😊😭

Bear tired out so fast, as usual. He always crashes out in the car. 😂

I'm in bed...

I'm in bed under my weighted blanket, being cuddled by Adrian and Scar.

For the first time in I don't know how long, I feel at peace.

❤️

Calypso face-down in my leg-pit...

Calypso face-down in my leg-pit with her arm up on my belly. She fights sleep so hard and then her head just DROPS and she's OUT. 😂 I only know she can breathe because she's snoring. 😂😂😂

This face. 😂

This face. 😂

He was so unamused. Shaun fell asleep on the couch and Bear was like "This isn't funny. How's he gonna tuck me!?"

She's the worst cat, but she's being sweet right now. 😂❤️

I love how he looks when he wakes up from a nap. 😂😍

We thought he was gonna throw the coaster on the floor, but he fell asleep instead. Look at him! ❤️

I've had this bruise for a few days.

I've had this bruise for a few days. I just noticed that it looks like a heart.

Bear was playing the other day and ran up to me and bumped me there with one of his bottom teeth. I know he doesn't mean to do that; it's just because of the shape of his face. He also bruises my lips when he gives me kisses sometimes. It depends on how excited he is in the moment.

I could never be upset by his enthusiastic lovings or his accidental bumps. He's a sweet boy just doing his best. ❤️

Errands today.

Errands today. The boys got pup cups. The lady at the pharmacy said that Bear looks mean. Knowing who he is as a person, I don't think I could ever see it. 😊 He's a sweet boy, even if he's wild and looks weird. ❤️

We were outside earlier...

We were outside earlier and Cub heard/saw either a person or a dog outside the fence and started doing his "I'm excited, come be my best friend" squeal, but no one came to see him. So he sat alone over there pouting for a bit, which is why this photo is all zoomed and a little blurry. 😂 He was so sad. He only put his ears up because Shaun was talking to him, but he wouldn't come. You can see it in his eyes that his feelings were hurt. I felt so bad for this sweet boy. 💔

In the 2nd picture I was getting some Cubba cuddles before bed. He's such a doll.

It's really nice walking weather lately, so maybe he can make some friends on walks pretty soon.
