Today I need to go to the bank and get a new debit card. Someone tried using my card number yesterday to rent a car, so the bank blocked it. After that I'm visiting my mom.

My sheep shop is a big hit! :D


But my morning is going terribly so far.

A phone call woke me up, it was my bank's fraud department. They said someone tried to use my card number to rent a car. They put a block on my card and now I need a new one. I called customer service after I was done with the fraud part. I can either go in to a branch before 4pm today and get a new card, or wait 5-7 days for one to come in the mail. I opted to go to a branch. It's the first in two days. I need my card!

Then when I went into the bathroom, there was pee on the floor again. Aster totally missed the litter box. I think this was the third time? So I had to clean that up. Then I went to feed her and her food comes in these little plastic containers with foil you peel back. Sometimes they are hard to peel and this was one of them. I didn't know I was slightly squeezing the container and when I finally peeled the foil back, cat food juice squirted on my just laundered shirt :mad:

I sat down at my desk to do my internet rounds and looked into my tank, my female shrimp died :( I think the male isn't far behind, he hasn't moved since last night. For now he's hanging in there but I bet he dies too. I can't see the babies. And last night I scrubbed a bunch of brown algae off the glass and right now it looks like more grew in its place! Ugh.

I'm sorry your manager called you into her office :hug: That never feels good. I can't tell you how many times my manager had to talk to me about something on my first job. Don't give up! :hug:

Thank you!

Speaking of, I finished the free ones I was doing and opened a shop :accomplished:

My complaint right now is I'm hot. It's cooler outside than it is in my apartment.

Oh :( I wonder what happened to the aloe?

I have gnats! I think they're in the spider plant mainly but I can't tell. Luckily, I have some sticky spikes to put in the dirt.

Everything is growing like crazy.

HoM, great to hear about Ozzy! :D
I need to wash my hair in the sink too. I wanted to do it yesterday but was too tired.

I got the laundry done :accomplished: I need to wash my blanket still, but that's just one thing, so easy. Changing the sheets on the bed should be done today but my back is really hurting, so I don't know. It's times like this that I want to move my bed out in the room, but I like being against the wall when sleeping :huh:

Yeah, I'm one of those "locked away from society" but it's not really by choice. I don't drive, never have. There is no public transport here. There is a bus of sorts, but you need to call 48 hours ahead and it costs money. I live day to day because my pain and mental function vary day to day. I don't know how I'll feel in 48 hours, so why book a trip?

I'm actually thankful for COVID and the lockdown in a way. I use Zoom to see my psyche and therapist and it's SO much better than having to go to the office and everything that happens between that and coming home. Honestly, if I had to be physically seen? I would probably cancel a lot of my appointments. And that doesn't help me.

I'm all for technology. I think we need to rely on it to reach a Utopia, where robots do all the work and humans can enjoy life. And there have been major advancements even in recent years. But like Taffeta said, society as a whole isn't set up for all inclusiveness. It's all old infrastructure and most cities don't want to put the work in the make things better. Oh, they'll install spikes on benches but ramps and handrails is too hard or costs too much money.



Pokey - I agree. Jealous and insecure, for sure. I also get the "I could do that too" from people about my miniatures sometimes.

I don't really do custom pieces either. I've taken commissions but I always regret it.
