Lily is not eating very much, but she's not ready to let go yet. She has two bad teeth that refuse to give up and fall out, and I wish they would, because I think that's the problem (or at the very least not helping). Having them pulled would mean putting an almost-15-year-old cat with kidney problems under general anesthesia, and Dr. P is good with my not wanting to do that.
Got my $1400 stimulus check, and am taking the BC Easter vacation (Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Monday off), so I guess I can go mattress shopping. Hooray? Mattress shopping feels like used-car shopping to me. I think I know what I want, though, and it's a matter of going down to Mattress Firm in Coolidge Corner, which is where they sell what I want, and persuading them that that's all I want. The regiment could probably invest in a new futon mattress someday too, but that's at the end of the "not now" list after new office rug and new quilt. Quirk isn't doing the quilt any favors either.
And I really need a plasterer to fix the office wall, and a plumber and a tile guy to at least replace the tub/shower faucets and replace that square foot of tiles in the middle of the wall, and if I won the lottery I'd have the entire bathroom re-tiled. I'm probably going to have to win the lottery for the plasterer anyway. AND I'm not sure how long it would take to fix the wall, and I don't think it would be a good idea to try to be doing my WFH job while the wall's being fixed. So I'm in about three minds on the subject.
