Hammered. Overslept work a little. Overslept my lunchtime nap too. (Luckily, I said that I was taking a long lunch.) I didn't get my Halloween stuff up, so I'll do it at 5 PM.

I dreamed about the Canadian guy that I liked last night. He’s on Facebook, and I would like to contact him, but I want to wait until I lose weight. (Eating Halloween candy doesn’t help!)

The girls polished off their food this morning. Yay. And Zara is looking for more food! And Mimi wanted some dry food.

I’ve decided to go to Goodwill, Ross, and TJ Maxx on Friday night to look for another dress for the trip. Oh, and I need to mail my returns of the clothes. I might have to do that on Saturday.

Mimi was on my lap, and she gave me an accusing look when I dumped her off to pick up my headphones that had fallen on the floor. Just as well, because I have a meeting soon that I'm leading. She is sneaky too. I was concentrating on some work stuff, and she jumped on my lap, and I didn't even notice until I looked at her! I told her her new name is Sill E. Cat.

The BetterUp people said that I lost the two pre-paid sessions when I canceled, but that they would give me a credit so that I can have a session. Unfortunately, my life coach isn't available until Wednesday, so I guess that I'll work with her on my final list before going on the trip. I could also work on a plan for working on the house after I get back.

There is something that I wanted to get at Meijer, but I can't remember what it is. Also, I need to pick up cat litter tomorrow while I'm out. And some extra cat food. Oh, and I need to go to Aldi this weekend because my therapist said that they have some good Keto munchies. I need something for my hotel/ship room.

Oh, I forgot to mention yesterday that my therapist asked me what I can do to decrease stress. She mentioned chair yoga. And I think that I want to take a warm bath this weekend. I want to do a pedicure and a facial as well. I bought a really cool pair of sandals on Amazon yesterday because the ones that I have didn't fit. I want my feet to look good! I think that I'll do a manicure right before I go with clear polish only. Then I'll use colored polish on the ship.

I want to make an appointment at Urgent Care to get the ear wax cleaned out of my ears. I want an appointment for Saturday or Sunday, but they let me make an appointment for tomorrow only. I'll try again tomorrow.

Oops, just remembered to order some bug spray wipes.

Got my Halloween decorations up (such as they are). I like the window clings. I might need to buy more next year because I had to use tape on some of them. I just got my first Trick-or-Treaters just now. How exciting!

Oops, this flipped over!

I’ve been doing chores downstairs in order to hear Trick-or-Treaters at the door. (I really need to get a doorbell installed.) I tidied up the kitchen and watered the plants. Now I’ll start on the clothes in the laundry area after resting my back. I’m going to turn the porch light off at 9 PM and go upstairs.

Speaking of which, I was investigating breast reduction surgery because my back aches when I bend over or walk. However, it seems that my breasts aren’t large enough for insurance to pay for it, and it’s expensive without it. Losing weight would help though.

Hmm. I should do 1SE in November because of the trip. (The only time that I remember to do it is when I’m taking a trip.) Maybe I’ll take a picture of my lawn full of leaves tomorrow. I’m leaving them there to feed the lawn over the winter.

Oh! I was working on my clothes and discovered that I still had the pretty purple dresses that I bought from Ross! I’ll try them on, but they should fit. In that case, I’ll return both evening gowns from ThredUp and take the purple ones on the trip. Oh, I’m so happy! I think that I'll wear them with my blue pumps because they don't look bad and they are MUCH more comfortable than my black ones.

I turned the porch light off. I had a sum total of two sets of Trick-or-Treaters. And lots of candy left over. I’m not surprised because there aren’t a lot of kids that live in the neighborhood. Next year, buy less candy :)

Worked for a while to make up my time.

I can return my Land's End clothes at Kohl's. I'll do that tomorrow. I'll need to go to the post office for the ThredUp returns.

Mimi is on my lap and making it hard for me to package up the returns, so I'll post first. Cats rule; humans drool :)

I turned on the heat last night because the temperature has been going down to the 40s F, but I don't think that it has gone on yet. I brought out an extra blanket.

Woke up a few times, but got up at 10 AM. Mimi is making a fuss over me. I guess that she missed me yesterday. Fed the cats first thing because it's later than they normally eat. Now Zara is in my face. I guess that she missed me too, although she's more independent than Mimi.

Zara was clearly still hungry, so I gave her the other half a can from Mimi's food. She usually eats Mimi's leftover food, which Mimi doesn't finish because she eats dry food, but I'm low on dry food, which should arrive today. Anyway, it all worked out, and we're all fed.

I read an article that said that the J&J vaccine, which is the one that I got, goes down to 3% after a few months. I hope that they have a booster soon.

Speaking of shots, I'm mulling over when I can get my flu shot. I was thinking Friday, but I'll be in Chicago that day. And I'll be getting in late on Saturday. I don't want to get it on Thursday because of possible side effects. Maybe the following week?

Took a long nap. Woke up feeling kind of dizzy and shaky, but food has helped. I'm wondering if I should lie down a little longer though. Checked that Walmart has Blue Buffalo dry cat food, and they do, so I'll pick some up tonight if the food from Amazon doesn't arrive.

I did lie down and slept. Got up and fed the girls again.

Texted the pet sitter. She said that she could take care of the cats Friday and Saturday. Awesome.

Started laundry. Ran out and got soda and Mimi's dry cat food.

Talked to Mom. The doctors are having her do an endless round of tests. She wants me to get another J&J shot, but I looked into it, and they're not offering second shots yet. She's worried about the state of the country.

I need to study Italian, but I'm tired, so I'm going to go to bed and get up early.
