12. I wish I could! I've been awake all night...

the anxiety meds don't seem to be working. My "nurse" kitty came in to keep me company when I finally laid down in bed. She was curled up next to me the whole time I tried laying there to go to sleep. I finally gave up the ghost and got online to pay a couple of bills (before I forgot them!)

We're suppose to get really strong storms tomorrow, starting in the afternoon. If they do let him come home tomorrow, I hope it's early enough I'm not going to have to drive that long distance in pouring rain and hail. Meanwhile, I placed buckets and towels in the necessary areas in the back room so I won't have to worry about it flooding out while I'm gone. Man, if it ain't one thing, it's 10 others! (LOL)
