Since this past weekend he has practically stopped eating. He did eat some tuna on Monday and Tuesday and now he has no desire to eat it or anything else.

Tonight is the first night, I’ve been unable to get him to purr.

My boy will be missed.

Oh no,Great Hound, I really feel for you I know how hard that decision is

And they still have enchiritos at your location!?! They stopped doing those at my nearest . One of my favorite things (minus the yucky onions of course!)...lol I use to get them with a bunch of extra sauces (nacho cheese + creamy jalapeno = win! ).

Oh yeah, they dropped off the menu here years ago. But recently I saw one of
those things on msn about "secret menu items" for fast food, and so next time
at the bell I asked for an enchirito. And I got one!

It's ingredients they always have on hand: tortilla, refried beans, taco meat,
covered in sauce and cheese.

I got 17 of my 52 items done, so about a third.

Would have gotten more done, but had to create, print, stuff, and mail 27 checks, and that was not on my list.


Another Day Done,

The wild grass fire today was much closer, in THIS county. Just thankful there
wasn't a lot of wind today.

This is a different kind of anxiety than watching for severe weather one or two
days a week, or every couple of weeks. This is every damn day.

WE NEED RAIN! Or snow!

I need to grow up.

I need to make decisions, take responsibility, work hard and be reasonable. I need to do things I don't fancy doing because they have to be done. I have a little daughter and old ailing parents.

I can't believe that after almost 40 years finally I need to grow up. I'm dreading it. I don't want to be an adult. I'm not sure I am capable of acting like an adult. I'm too tired, too afraid and too low on energy. I probably also have ADHD. That makes acting like an adult pretty hard.

You got this fuzzbuster


But I totally get where you comin from

I’m a few years away from 40 and often wonder what an adult actually is. Lol

My pals My wife and I often look forward to when the “adults” leave so we can do some pot and get crazy

And yes. We use the phrase “when are the adults leavin. “. Lol

But anyway. Love ya and you’ll be just fine

I can't believe you're actually saying this!

Especially the bit about being almost 40. You simply CAN'T really be that young can you? You look waaaaaay older more mature than just 40!!!


WAIT WAIT NOW!
I WAS ONLY JUST JOKING!!!! PLEASE DON'T KICK ME IN MY SHIN! IT'S MY ONLY WEAKNESS!!!!
hehe

But seriously! You worked, then you had Lil'Itsy'Fuzzling, and now you're working again.
How do you need to grow up!?

I feel like I have to grow up...but I don't have any of the huge life pressures you have. You're married, working, and have a child.
I'm single, unemployed and directionless.
I compare myself to you, and you amaze me!

I'm just surprised to see you worrying about this.
Like...how many responsibilities do you have to take on in life, before you can get from under this cloud?

You're too damned hard on yourself Fuzzy-Wuzzy . You should be celebrating yourself each and every day for all the huge accomplishments you've made and you continue to make day in and day out...not belittling yourself!

((Fuzzy))

(((((((((((((((((((((FUZZLING))))))))))))))))))))) )

...
Huh?
I don't know.
Both e-(((hugs))) look the same size to me! It's like I tell others...I don't have favorites! I love everyone equal! I'd never give anyone a bigger e-(((hug))) then anyone else!

Mr Blaze had a very difficult night on Thursday and was suffering. We had him put to rest on Friday.

I miss him greatly but watching him suffer was far worse.

R.I.P. my little man, you will always be loved and missed!

Thank you to everyone for your care and concern! That’s why I love this place.

Where else could a 50 y/o man get real caring support for losing their cat and not ridiculed?

I didn’t receive much care or support IRL from my non-ADHD peers at work for sure. I texted my temporary boss Thursday night and said we needed to put down Blaze on Friday afternoon and needed to leave work a bit early and asked if that would be okay. He was already aware of his declining health. He never even responded to my message.

Friday morning, I asked him if he received my message. He said “yes”. I said well, is that going to be okay? His only response was “what am I supposed to say?”

I was angry and told him he didn’t need to say anything. I thanked him for his lack of compassion and that I would be leaving early since he didn’t have anything to say. He’s just an *** hole. He doesn’t know it yet but I will be his boss soon when the regional mgr. position is available.

[midnightstar]

I'm so sorry, Great Hound

Mr Blaze is running free with my Ebony now (and I reckon Ebony's teaching him the art of raiding the bin/trash if rainbow bridge has bins)

Hi there Midsy.

....
I can't sleep guys! /pouts
I guess I did get 2 hours there...but now I'm awake again and just can't go back to sleep. Was the same way last night...got about 4 hours of sleep in total.

Is it the adderall? But it's been 14 hours since my last dose (20mg instant).
Also...this specific sleeping issue isn't anything new to me. I go through this phase on or off medications. In fact I've been fighting this for the last several months on and off.

I tried to lay there and fall asleep...but I've never been much good at forcing myself to sleep. I'd end up laying there for hours trying.

[sarahsweets]

Omg psycho, me too! You know how I am with my sleep schedule but I was so restless- felt like my legs were on fire. I went downstairs and couldnt find a comfortable spot on the recliner or chaise. I swear tea has more caffeine than coffee. I used to drink like five cups a day and now I cant tolerate the caffeine after a certain time. Hubs and I went out for pizza and like a fool i had iced tea which was so strong I think I grew chest hair! So for me, I went to bed at 11 and probably was up and on the forums at 1 something. My problem is that I will have no issues go-go-going all day but crash tonight.
