end of an era
 

we bought this house with just two kitties.
we've kept the sink running in the guest bathroom the entire time because fisk won the drug war.

late yesterday evening the under-sink water leak sensor triggered...
the sink started leaking.

we turned off the faucet.
it's been the biggest reminder that my sweet kitties are gone.

we've got two more, torts and llama, but the house feels so fucking empty.

fucking ew.
 

my ear got stopped up and the bf has this in-ear camera tool and we used it to see this super gross looking ball of wax
we sprayed it with a warm water and hydrogen peroxide solution and then used the camera scoop thingy again and got a hunk of wax off 
felt sooo good
been kinda dizzy since (happened around lunchtime)

we flushed my ear again and then this much bigger hunk of wax thumped into the sink 
fucking ew.

also feel loads better now than I did this morning.

it burns
 

y’all it finally happened
went to an indian buffet for lunch yesterday and I ate SO MUCH!
mostly everything was super spicy but still pretty fantastic - my biggest issue was that so many of the meats had bones in them
my mouth and lips were on fire and I think that made me not realize exactly how much I was eating because I wound up soooo full, ugh

success!
 

on top of not putting the paddles on, once I put them on I apparently didn't put them on correctly.
enter: the bf
got the paddles put on properly and also noticed I hadn't pushed the baking pan all the way in.

ffs I did terribly but the bread still came out ok!
wahoo!

solo travel
 

went to see my mom for her birthday.. was a week late but made it down.
she's not looking good at all.
skin is waxy.. she had a ministroke while I was down there.
she hasn't remembered me in ages...

such a husk instead of the force of nature she used to be.

couple big exercise changes today
 

1) had been debating switching out my back exercises for yoga as my back has been a lot better since adding in the mcgill big 3. left those in the rotation but did yoga this morning and it was a nice change
2) finally did a strength workout without a brace and my thumb still feels fine! today would’ve been the follow up appt with the hand specialist but since I canceled it wanted to see how working with dumbbells would go. sooo much easier than having to put the brace on/off depending on the exercise, stoked!

we got a bidet!
 

 it's only ok.
heated seat is def nice, as well as heated water. but the dryer takes sooooo long and is still just ineffective.
spent $300 on it and it just feels so cheaply made.

thinking about buying a whole new toilet with a built-in bidet for the master bathroom.
