Settling In

We went back go work and have been back to not seeing each other during the week. He's sleeping when i leave for work, I'm sleeping when he gets home, so it's mostly just notes to each other on the kitchen table. One day I came home to an EMPTY trash can, which was awesome. That NEVER happens when you live alone. We are SO in the fun, cute stages of the adjustment and I'm loving it... and him. It's fun telling people I got married. Reactions are varied but generally pleasant surprise and congrats, followed by "is this your FIRST time?" Lol. I will say, he was 100% worth the wait. 

I held off starting the new med for the hemiplegic migraines until after the wedding. I didnt want any side effects or alcohol interactions to mess up the festivities. Well, The med caused an upper respiratory infection the week of the honeymoon, which I got a prescription for antibiotics for on Monday when I went back to work. Then on Tuesday I realized I had to take the antibiotic with food because otherwise it gives me a very nasty tummy ache. Still taking the good Sudafed for the symptoms, but the good news is I'm less of a mucus monster than I was a week ago. That was truly unpleasant and had us wondering if the apt, our stuff, the bar crawl, or burleson got me sick. Nope, side effect. I checked the paperwork. Apparently this is before the weight loss effects kick in. Cuz you know, that one I'm here for!!! 

I got the kitty cat a fountain so that he'd have a better water situation. He... was unsure at first, but I'm sure he'll get to where he will enjoy it. He has also proven a better jumper than I would have thought so treats and catnip have to be kept in the closet. Food is kept in the laundry room, and we had to move his tree to try and dissuade him from jumping on the table. I think straight up isn't his forte, but across he can clear pretty good distances. I'm gonna be spoiling the crap outta this kitty cat!!

I mean, how can you NOT???

We spent most of the weekend cleaning out Js old apt, throwing away a bunch of stuff, making a last run of things he wanted to keep, and a run to the dump. The man is also brilliant. I'm not often hungry and with the sinus issue it's even less so. Saturday we got home and he asked if I wanted food from the rice bowl. I said no, I'm not hungry. He said it wouldn't be here until about 630 if we ordered now. I said go ahead, cuz by then I'd probably want food and BOOM! Sure enough. Lol. It was a busy weekend, much more physically demanding than we had anticipated. The good news is, it's all done. The old apt is cleaned out, the stuff is all in the new one, and we won't ever have to deal with the old one again. Yay for being able to move on! Unfortunately the cleaning stirred up a bunch of nasties and J was down with the sickness on Sunday. Hopefully it was just a 24 hour bug. I know I shouldn't enjoy him being sick, but i did enjoy having him home on Sunday. 

In a random twist of fate, once AGAIN I got to see my sister on a Sunday! So I picked her up on a rainy Sunday, took her to Starbucks, Wendy's (nuggies for Kit), Kroger, and chilis! We had a lovely chat and then I dropped her back off at the yard. Came home and got to spend some quality time with the man before getting ready for the work week. Its hospital week, so each day is themed... we'll see how well I can get with the themes. Stay tuned.

Anyway, I hope all of you are having a wonderful Spring, enjoy the crazy weather, and don't get swept away!
