I had to have a little talk with Ron about DT

He drank all his vodka during the birthday blackout.  When he sobered up yesterday he asked where it had all gone.  I told him. 

He was going to wait and order it today, but I remembered all the comments about DT and how BAD it would be for Ron to suddenly stop, so I told him that (he did not ask why so many people were worried about this, for him).  At first he thought it was "funny", until I mentioned the seizures and risk of death.  He called his #1 vodka guy, and nothing.  He waited about an hour. 

He remembered someone had given him 2 bottles of wine, but they needed a corkscrew which we did not have.  So that wouldn't work.  He called Alex who brought him 2 big bottles of his usual vodka. 

I will say he behaved himself and I slept pretty well, considering I had a parade of obese house cats in my cot.  At one point I had to evict Torbie so I could roll over.  I am sure I'll feel terrible about it when she's gone but I couldn't breathe. 

I am going to have to buy the bigger cot.  Probably after I get paid. 

I started my cycle, about on time (movers took my calendar) and have my typical first-day headache.  I will not miss any of this when it's done. 

I do have a decent amount of female supplies so I am OK in that regard.  3 pair of jeans, about 15 tshirts, socks, and underwear are working for me clothing wise.  I have one pair casual pants I will use for very dirty work like painting, etc. because I am not crazy about them. 

I plan to turn the former computer room into my retreat, have a nice papasan chair only in there and a bookcase with my Bible stuff on it, then I can sit in the chair and do my Bible study/prayer time and have a nice, clean, designated space. 

Ron's room will be done last but at the very least rip out the carpet, new flooring, drywall and paint (not in that order).  Ideally get him a new mattress and dresser as well. 

Bathroom gets new drywall, paint, cabinet with sink and faucet, paint the medicine cabinet to match the sink cabinet (white).  Ideally a couple of grab bars as well for both of us (I could use one where you come out of the shower, even if Ron doesn't).  They can be white as well. 

Then my room, new drywall, paint, flooring.  Ideally put a curtain rod at the front of my closet enclosure so I can hang curtains to block my clothes.  Move my stuff back (dresser, bed, clothes), done 

Laundry room, repair ceiling, drywall, paint (current contenders are aqua or mauve) get some black or white milk crates to store my laundry potions (current milk crates are hot pink and won't match).

Garage, drywall definitely, paint if I can afford it. 

I like the paint sample I put in Ron's room, I didn't at first but it has grown on me, a soft blue with some gray in it. 

My room will be a cream color, as will most of the house.  Esalerugs.com has a ton of brightly colored rugs if I decide to go that route and are very affordable.  Bathroom will be a lavender/mauve and the laundry room as well, possibly.  If I don't go mauve in the laundry room it will be aqua. 

The cats are good, I saw Cleo and got a pet this morning.  She is pretty cute although she did run outside last night in the middle of a thunderstorm.  I also saw Spotty, Biscuit, and the older girls. 

Ron is having a bad day for his back.  He had some pain in his knee but I applied the magnets.  That helped.  We go to work in a while, stock, take money out of the machines, go to the bank to turn it into $20's, maybe deposit a jar of nickels.  Then home and we work tomorrow, as well, supply run and stock. 

But we can't do the supply run if we don't go in today and get the money.  I don't think we will need a whole lot of stuff. 

I think I am going to have to smoke some CBD bud for my headache.
