I'm becoming a hermit

It has been what? At least a month since I got into my little putt putt and drove anywhere. I look outside and see gray and rain. If I drove to the store at least the sun could not glare into my eyes. Then again.....the pain level in my ribs and lower back did not give me a decent amount of rest last night. Maybe I will just go to Doordash and order milk etc. from a grocery store and have it delivered. Money is meant to be spent. I finally finished that short story. It is either 8 or 10 pages long- depends on the font type. I have not finished editing so it could be longer. I think the famous hormone blocker pill is also dumbing down my ability to concentrate. That is not at all cute. Spider Monk kitten is very busy. Yesterday morning I was trying to use the downstairs toilet. Yup. Spider jumped in!!! before I could sit down and you bet he jumped out like a flash in a cartoon show. I consider him certified healthy and kitten crazy. Got to love it.

I hope you did the Doordash thing. It's best to stay home and be good to yourself. I am glad you finished your story. Sounds like Spider is a crazy kitten that will keep you very busy and amused!

@MarieCoyle I did order food in. I bagged a couple of fancy and well aged bits of cheese. Oh my I love that crystalized cheese. Thank you for your concern.

We only leave the house now for doctor appointments. My brother brings our groceries. I told Pretty that I'd like to get my Social Security started since they refuse to give me disability. We need a new car. At least you saw him and gave him time to get out again.

@DaddyEvil Weird people. Refusing to give you disability. I'm glad you have family support.

@AmbiePam You would love him. I am glad I found out more about his background. Now I understand why he nuzzles up to all the other fur kids. He did not get his needs met when he was bitty.

Now I would have loved to see the moment when Spider Monk jumped in. I haven't been out of my doors for over 2 years.

Kittens are interesting animals due to their nature of being curious.

Doordash sounds like the smart move today, no reason to push yourself out in that gray weather. Congrats on finishing the short story though, 8 or 10 pages is still a real accomplishment either way. And Spider Monk jumping in the toilet before you even sat down, that image is just too funny lol.

@Wrexxo Thank you for your support. I cleaned the cat litter pan and took the mess out to the toter. Crazy how that was an effort but at least I got it done.
