Today was a nullity day. Hubby wasn't going into work until his regular time, 1130am or a little early so when I woke up, he was still here. We watched Quincy together, for the most part, until he had to get ready for work. Neither of us had any bedbug bites. So I stayed in bed watching Rockford File and when I was ready, I got up and went to the bathroom. Then I started my daily search for bedbugs to see if I could find any, meaning I would have to strip the bed and wash everything, so if I found none, then I would make the bed and we could sleep on the same bedding two nights in a row. But when I came back from the bathroom, there was a big bedbug crawling on my pillow. And when I moved the pillow, there was another. So I squished them both, leaving blood smears on the pillow cases and stripped the bed. I pulled up the mattress all around and didn't see any more. But still that made 3 more loads of laundry I would have to do today.
I left and went to Walgreens. I was supposed to meet a lady who wanted my Unicorn Tarot cards, but she never showed up. Hubby told me to go out to lunch but instead, I went into Walgreens and bought 4 packs of this chicken salad with crackers kits. One is just enough to fill me up and was what I wanted for lunch. So I sat in the parking lot reading my book, Candy Corn Murder, and eating the chicken salad on crackers.
I next went to Rescued Hearts, the thrift store that raises money in order to give grants to various organizations that rescue animals. I had some clothes to donate to them. I had washed and bagged them and double twistie tied them so they were clean.
When I got home, I fed all the animals, started laundry, folded the load in the dryer and put it all away. When I went to put away hubby's shirts, I saw that he had stuffed his bags too full and not twistie tied them. So I some time bagging clothes in new bags and store some of his clothes in bags in the closet, so he would have less in his drawers.
I cleaned the litter boxes out, cooked some frozen mexican casserole that I had made and frozen, for Frank for dinner. And I worked on decorating more pine cones with glitter glue. Slowly I'm getting them done. I let the rattie boys out for a while, fed everybody again, cleaned up where Baby threw up her dinner, and shampooed the carpet with a spray can. Tomorrow I'll vacuum it up.
Hubby is working until 10pm tonight. About 945pm I will put the Mexican casserole in the oven to start heating up for him. It's still kind of frozen so will take awhile to bake. I might even eat some of it with him.
Tomorrow I have to call the doctor's office and make arrangements to not pay them until January, since we don't have the money to pay them right now. I also have to call the dentist and put them off until January.
I'm stressed about money. I'm depressed about the Planned Parenthood shooting in my town, the mass killing in San Bernadino, and the news saying that there has been over 300 mass shootings this year alone in the United States. I may have misheard, but I don't think so. I'm stressed about Christmas. I'm stressed about bedbugs. I'm hoping that doing the Christmas decorating will help me out of my funk. And maybe chocolate. I think I will go eat a box of Raisinettes.
