Been up a few hours and to my utter astonishment, it’s actually been quiet. Just a few semi-loud vehicles but it won’t last long.

My hair is really growing fast for one who is low on thyroid. Usually, it grows pretty slow when it’s short but it’s been noticeably longer as of just a couple of weeks after getting it cut. I’m sure it’s because I’m sick of long hair, LOL. If I hated it and missed my long hair it would be creeping back slowly.

I’m lying on the living room floor right now on my stomach speech to texting this entry on my phone and a big brown rat wants my attention. Yeah, Fuzzy’s out.

What just happened between these two, anyway? I was in the kitchen a while ago when I heard quite a scuffle and I thought the pigs were playing their chase games even though I haven’t seen them doing that in a while. They chased each other more as babies.

So I looked and saw the rats really going at it and while they weren’t squeaking up a storm as rats do when they’re scared or in pain, it seemed a bit rough for just playing, and these rats don’t play much to begin with. I yelled at them and they stopped immediately.

Now Fuzzy is trying to break into the pigs’ cage but I won’t let him because he’ll only bully them.

Even though I know the story pretty well, I watched the newest Bundy movie on Netflix yesterday. I don’t see how one person can take on that many people. No man is stronger than every single woman. No woman is weaker than every single man. With so many victims I would think that sooner or later you would go after the wrong one and get the tables turned on you. Either way, the movie broke up my routine a bit and gave me something to do at the end of my day which is when I tend to get bored.

We’re going to be having a huge discussion sometime this weekend as far as making plans to get out of here before he retires. Because our independence-obsessed country won’t go for universal healthcare, I guess they may be trying to get around that by lowering the age of Medicare. Well, the thing that’s been keeping him having to work a regular job full-time is the whole insurance thing. But if they can lower Medicaid and he can make some money with his app and drop down to part-time or something like that, that would help give us more flexibility.

I also made a list of the pros and cons of the city versus rural as well as cold versus warm climates. Unless there was a huge payoff that could somehow be guaranteed, I don’t think I could do a cold climate. It would have to be very temporary, and with life usually not turning out the way we plan it to be, we’re almost certainly not going to go in that direction. Unless someone gave us a free house that was practically new in the middle of 10 or more acres, I’m not interested in cold climates. I’m also not interested in going extreme rural again either where it takes nearly an hour to get to civilization.

I went to bed hoping I would get signs in my dreams, and I sure did. But was it really a sign or just because it’s been on my mind? Only time will tell.

I dreamed Paula and I were friends again and I went to visit her right before we moved to Florida. The last dream suggested we were going to Nevada so I don’t know what to think. I think that if I’m going to get any signs in my dreams it’s way too soon. No matter what we plan, we’re not getting out of here tomorrow or the next day.
