Yawn....Being Nocturnal Is Taking a Toll On My Motivation

I have worked so many nights that I am becoming unmotivated. It is quite boring sitting around having no energy, waiting to go to work. I must admit, the night shift drains my energy level and I have little desire to clean the house.

Anyways, here I am in my robe, still, watching the eaglets, and listening to my cat meowing. Sebastian has decided eating is important but is very finicky. With the meds I give him, he hates everything I feed him. I'm not sure if it is the Tapazole bitter taste or just the food, but he fights me on every feeding and wanders around bitching about it. He has been avoiding his meds from his food by not eating, resulting in carpet stains of cat vomit. Augggggh. I wish he could speak English so I could understand him. I'll go out and get some chicken livers today and cook them up for him. He likes those and there's loads of iron in them.

The eaglets are entertaining when being fed. I saw the eagle parent bring back a rabbit the other day. I am waiting for the neighbour's cat soon. That should be interesting. When I get bored I go and see the eagles in Stanley Park. Both were in the tree the other day. There seems to be more of an interest in the nest from the infotec eagle cam and it's popularity over the past months. Funny how certain things catch on in interest with us stupid humans.

Well I'm out for today. Bye.

Christmas Dinner 2023

Christmas dinner is not a challenge for me, unlike most people all over the world. Depending on your main dish selection and the corresponding side dishes, the difficulty level can differ for anyone, but I always suggest keeping it on the simple side so you can spend more time enjoying yourself than living in your kitchen. It was just my partner and me this year, keeping it a bit low-key and quiet. He just started a new job and didn't want to go too crazy, doing a little extra studying during the festive days off. His decision was leg of lamb, which I was happy with as turkey for two is either too much trouble or not special enough if using turkey thighs for your main dish. Using my kitchen and cooking tools (and skills) was a great decision, making our neighbourhood festivities available while also having time to cook. After visiting the local pub and enjoying a few rye and cokes (beer for him) we tried to gather an appetite, filling up on Christmas brunch with my family earlier i...

Heat Waves and Hot Flashes: Mid-Fifties As A Woman

Sitting at the bar I frequent often, cold pint in front if me, I chose to leave my hot apartment to find some air conditioning. The last few days have been hot in Vancouver and my local has been enjoyable with air conditioning keeping us all from melting away. Walking down here I noticed the temperature was 28c and was looking forward to a little break from the heat. Of course, after a few days of feeling a bit cold in here, the AC is not working. It can be hit and miss as they keep the folding sliding windows open for air flow, but it does end up over taxing the AC system. Sitting on non-cloth seats - it can get a bit sticky in here. Earlier today I was on a hot bus, of course I catch the bus without AC and I could feel the sweat trickling down my back. Stick to the seat is also a lovely feeling, possibly leaving a small sweat streak, like you would find on seats on workout equipment in a gym. Yuck. The worst part of it all is when you are still suffering from h...

Crush...

crush Function: noun 1 : an act of crushing 2 : the quantity of material crushed 3 a : a crowding together (as of peo ple) b : CROWD, MOB; especially : a crowd of people pressing against one another 4 : an intense and usually passing infatuation ; also : the object of infatuation Experiencing a crush has interesting effects on your life. It's amazing how easily one can fall into a crush. Is it called a crush because that is the feeling when the recipient of the crush (or victim) reject any advances? I find it incredible that this phantom infatuation can be so powerful at times, no matter whether you are a giggly little teen or a grown woman. It is like a tractor beam pulling your millennium falcon towards the death star; like the strongest vortex vacuum dragging you into its rotator heads---you'll be a shredded mess once you pass through the nozzle. I can't explain how this even happened in the first place. It did happen almost a year ago, and hasn't really stopped. H...
