After being the first one up at 6am yesterday, I sat around until 8am, made everyone pancakes and bacon and then sat around some more until everyone decided to slowly start getting up around 9am. Even at 9am it was already starting to get hot AF. But then, fate intervened! Our housesitter messaged me saying how she couldn't come because her car was dead! Oh no! I will valiantly go home to take care of the pets! Yes, it is so sad I must leave early but what is, is! Originally I had planned on leaving this morning super early, then it changed to leaving around 6pm, then at 2pm I said fuck it and left.
Look, I tried. I even went back down to the lake. Tried sitting in the sun. Tried distracting myself. All that happened was I was hot, itchy, and grumpy. So I packed my stuff and headed home.
Made it home in 3 hours and 1 minute. Boom. The cats are happy I am home. Especially with last night's boom boom pop pop going off. All of us huddled here in the basement to avoid it as much as possible. Even a family of deer took refuge in our backyard last night because they know it's safe here.
Dumped pictures. Took 390 pics in one day. Oops. I am happy with some of them:
Look I know I am a whiny bitch. But why make yourself miserable if there is another option? The funny thing is how hot and grumpy other people were too. Plus the men folk decided yesterday was a good day to replace all of the water pipes in the smaller cabin. You know, the one we were using. So of course now it's nearly 100 degrees out, there's no water, and you can't sit inside because they've taken over the whole house. Well fuck me. All of this led to my decision. It sucks that B and I can't share something but it also is good for us given that it's like day 125 that I have been inside. That 36 hours I just spent away was the longest stretch I've been out of the house and around people in 4 months. I need to ease back into it, not thrust.
Two days until my birthday. I have decided I am buying me an ice cream cake for my birthday. Why the hell not. Today I am doing nothing. No projects, no tasks, nothing. Going to relax and play stupid video games all day. It will be wonderful.
