More crap in my life
Well, first of all, Thanksgiving Day is behind me. The work I anticipated (or actually dreaded), was not as difficult as it could have been. With me still getting used to all the extra work, I don't need a ton of work dumped on me - my body can only take so much. I can feel myself getting into better shape, though - I'm a little lighter, and my energy level is improving.
Thanksgiving Day at Mama's house - not something I care to repeat, because of a certain individual present. I think next holiday I will spend by myself, rather than go through that again. It's still too difficult being around him.
Penny got an invitation as well, and enjoyed getting reaquainted with her friends, though she got tired, and was anxious to get home and relax.
In addition to the turkey given to me by my employer (he buys them at a steep quantity discount and distributes them to family, friends, and employees), I arrived home on Wednesday to find a 10lb. turkey sitting between my side door & screen door. I have no idea where it came from, and because of lack of freezer space, it is now residing in my refrigerator, where I have turned the temperature down far enough to keep the turkey frozen (I will make room later tonight in the freezer).
I almost feel guilty in eating it, since it seems to be a free, anonymous gift.
Also, I found Swan!!! She's been on the loose since last Friday, and I've had the heat in my house turned all the way up (86F) for most of that time. It's quite difficult to sleep, but I'd rather help her survive, I decided.
Well, after feeding her snake buddies tonight, I took another look (#21) around my basement. She was lying under a workbench, cold & somewhat stiff. I pulled her loose from her surroundings, placed her in her cage, and hurried upstairs. I put her in front of a heat vent, and she has warmed up, and Thank God, she is alive and moving. My mom is praying she'll survive, as am I. I got some advice from a snake forum/ people who have more experience than I do, and they seemed optimistic, but I just checked her, and she died. Well, I guess I am not meant to have retics. I will never buy another, as they seem doomed in my care.
I had typed more, but while previewing, blogger erased it on me. I'm too worn out with all this just-happened stuff to redo it right now.
