ongoing issues with Torby

Torby, much like myself, doesn't like that Daddy is gone. She's taken to tearing up the rear of the speakers. I'm hoping she isn't really doing any damage to them but its kinda hard to tell. She's not wanting to settle down and sleep at night. She gets up way too early in the morning. I know she's getting stir crazy cause she's been inside most of the winter but she's making everyone else crazy too. I can't very well throw her out all day like she wants. Not in this kind of weather. She'd freeze. No matter how I gripe about her I don't want ot go to jail for killing her. Or get fined either! Bah!

On the health front, still sniffling and mild sore throat. At this rate I may still have these Sx in June. Working towards *not* that. Tired and sore a lot. Trying to maintain personal care and honoring boundaries. I think its helping. As much as it can right now. Just a harder time than others. I'm coping. Cuddles welcome.

Work continues to be busy. I occasionally wonder if four days of 4-5 hours wouldn't be better for me instead of two days of 9am to 6pm. Makes for very long days even if I am not doing hands on the whole time. I dunno what I really need. I have noticed that more than 5 hours of hands on in a day and I'm toast. Doesn't really seem to be a good idea. Especially since I get NO breaks in between very instense short sessions. Its working, and I'm maintaining a balance but I'm not convinced this is what is best for me.

Love, Me
