I wish the urge to write would've hit me sooner than 15 minutes before work starts. I haven't written anything in so long that wasn't a skeet or short messages to people.
herbaria51.bsky.social
of course I get the urge to try and write 15 minutes before I'm supposed to log on to the day job.

I am just so used to everything being me and my hands. I sometimes have a hard time opening Bean's wet food at night so it just feels like they've gotten worse

CW: food mention

unrelated to the kitten, I bought myself a talenti Gelato last night at the dollar store as 🌟a little treat🌟 and then I could not open it with my busted hands and got very upset that my hands are not what they used to be.

I had to get up when she stepped on me at 6:00AM because she was basically doing biscuits on my bladder after grooming my leg, but I laid back down afterwards to let her know that I wasn't going to get up from bed until 7 AM.

#BeanPosting

Now Bean is trying to have me start my day at 6am! NO MA'AM, it's bad enough that we start the day at 7am, and you have decided to rebel in the afternoon and not fucking sleep, which causes you to be an unhinged pain when I get off work!!! NO. ugh.
herbaria51.bsky.social
I can, if nobody else has done so.

you never realize how uncomfy a position you get in until a cat (or any animal, really) forces you to commit to the bit and lay that way for the rest of eternity

it just took me 10 minutes to get her into her cat bed and she was like, "oh I guess I am sleepy aren't I"
herbaria51.bsky.social
googling, "how to help your kitten realize she's tired and help her feel comfortable in asking to go to sleep/reassure her that she's not going to miss anything while sleeping, I promise" nearly every hour

Hey, folks! My PFMLA is still processing and with everything going on, I’m not sure how much longer it’s going to take and we’re in a rough spot atm. If you like the work I do or just want to help out a queer, disabled household, it’d be highly appreciated.

I bought myself my own birthday cake this year because I knew nobody else was going to do it for me. 🫂💜

spend the money on yourself regardless, love. please. you're worth celebrating, even if you're family can't understand that.

I just want to make her understand she doesn't need to always sleep with me to sleep, you know? I want her to feel comfortable sleeping wherever she wants because she's a cat! cats need sleep! I don't want to deprive her of sleep!

I am getting a carrier sent to me because I don't have one for her yet, so I will be training her on it as soon as it arrives
herbaria51.bsky.social
If I get her a tent, I'm worried about her chewing on it, she's already punctured her tunnel cube in several spots and it has signs of chewing so now it's a Mumma supervised toy.

It also means twice the food, twice the litter, twice the toys, twice the vet bills (the thing I am *actually* really concerned about on my current income!!!!!)
herbaria51.bsky.social
I am really trying to meet her where she's at, and I'm trying to get more toys in that she can play with without needing me. I told someone else my issues and their response to me is, "get another kitten" which is not feasible for me! on multiple fronts! I can't just *get* another one!!!!
herbaria51.bsky.social
except lay in the dark until she (and me, eventually) falls asleep.

Frustrated because I haven't been able to spend much time with my partner (such as it is) because he's 3 time zones behind me, so 10pm my time is when he's finally decompressed from work/home and has eaten, but because Bean is losing her ever loving shit at that time, I have to not do anything

I forgot I also clean her litter box in the morning. how could I forget the poop collection.
