Irritations

There are a few things that are irritating me right now. Not many just a few. Most of them have names maybe I should not mention them. But hey, that never stopped me before.

First irritation is Jezzie. She is a cat. She is a beautiful calico prissy cat. She will let you pet her only when she wants to be pet. She thinks when you are sleeping or reading or on the computer is the best time to pet her. She also has a nasty habit of knocking things off high places when she needs something food, water, attention, you name it. This morning she started the knocking things over bit around 8 am. Granted we are out of dry food there still is no call for creating a racket at that hour.

Second irritation is Celie. She is the cute Yorkie in my life. She thinks kissing me awake is fun. She is also not too happy when the cats get close to having my attention. She will run after them, sometimes biting them in the butt and getting a mouth full of fur. Today she played a new game. She ate my last bite of chocolate. This was only about 1/8 of an ounce. I was worried and looked up the consequences on line. She was not displaying any odd behaviors. Then I went and took a shower. As I was getting dressed she started growling down in the living room. I looked out the upstairs window and everything was OK. Why would she be growling? I went down to investigate and found her shaking, growling, and huddled in a ball on the couch. Then I started to really worry. I called the vet. The vet thought she should come in for observation. While on hold with the vet I learned the source of Celie's upset. Someone sent me a get well balloon when I got out of the hospital. She was terrified. That balloon was so frightening to that little girl she could not control herself. I really did not want to go to the vet for observation. I am having enough trouble observing myself. Bottom line, I decided not to go to the vet. Celie is behaving normally. Why make her throw up and then put her through all that testing and watching. Besides that she is just starting to grow out that silly poodle cut they gave her last time she was in for observation.

Third irritation is me. I am not well yet. I am still dizzy. I am still in pain. I am still not able to work as I need or want to.

Other irritation? I want to be working and am feeling not ready yet. My clients are getting used to me being out. They aren't even getting in touch with me if they cannot make their training appointments.

OK. Thanks. I feel better now. Irritations are aired and now I can be free to go about my lazy day.
