Well, I'll get the bad news over with first: Ron had a horrible night for pain and kept me up.
Good news: he remembered his crackers and ate them instead of bugging me in the middle of the night.
I also got a cute photo of Biscuit. When I was setting up the room I considered everything and figured if I put the dresser in front of the window the cats might enjoy sitting on it, so when I got curtains I only got a length to the bottom of the window so they could look out. I also helpfully left a crack in the curtains so little heads could stick out.
I have seen Torbie up there and today I found Biscuit. My hands were shaking pretty bad (lithium) so I got the best photo I could.
He is pretty cute! I like the harmony of the dresser color and the curtains, same color grouping. It was a pretty bold (manic) choice to go with a magenta dresser but I like it, it's very cheerful.
I gave Ron some Kratom this morning and will leave once I am sure it has kicked in and he is comfortable. Right now he is snoring a little so that's encouraging.
My goal: run to the store and see if I can find the canned soda I could not obtain yesterday. Apparently (?) there is a shortage of Co2 so that may be driving the shortages. I will see what I can get. If nothing else I can get some sausage (I hear meat shortages are coming) a thing of bleach (stop laughing!) and a sheet for Ron's bed. I like several layered with rubber sheets super easy cleanup. Depending on the mess I can either toss (I would pay $10 for some messes to go away) or launder.
Ideally I can get a nap today we will see. Ron is about at the point I think I can leave him for a while.
We will probably take tomorrow off and do a supply run Saturday. I would rather do that but we will see what Ron and Jack have to say about it.
Mood is OK which is good. I think I took my pills, let me look. I did not so I fixed that.
Ron lost his radio again so I will look on Amazon. I tore up his room and couldn't find it.
That is it for now.

What are in those buckets stacked up next to the dresser? Looks like clutter is already accumulating in your room.
Keep replacing his radio when he loses it because he is drunk off his ass. Seriously the man does not leave his room the majority of the time. Clean that room and this way he won't be able to lose stuff. If you keep rewarding his negative behavior what reason does he have to change it?
Storage items, in the buckets. One has additional bathroom products (shampoo, soap). One has self care items if I get a cold or flu (tissue, medication I can take, etc). I cannot take conventional cold and flu medications as the decongestant would cause a seizure.
He has a head injury it is impossible for me to say how much of his behavior is that vs. alcohol.
Dr Pepper did not bring my orange soda so I had to go out and get it. That is not my fault. And I need that soda to make money.
Yeah OK his head injury not his blackout drinking causes him to lose stuff. Right.
You have a giant closet, store those buckets in there. You got such a great fresh start with the house renovations to be cluttering you your livable spaces again.
I know most of us don't have buckets or plastic bags filled with stuff all around the house, but I'm glad to see they're at least contained. For Heather it's normal and she's not going to change.
I really don't understand how Ron can lose so many things in his route to the kitchen. When that room finally get's cleaned she's going to need more containers full of radios that she finds. LOL
I agree about the closet BUT more than likely it i packed full of junk. Thus the reason they are piled up in the bedroom.
Wouldn't it be better for Ron to fire you so you can get unemployment? Then you can work for free and still make more than you would be making working for him. $2400 plus a month VS $1200 a month. Unless you don't get a W2 from him. Which is likely the case. Shame how he screwed you when you tried to leave and move from CA to TX and continues to screw you with his own selfish choices and you just have to take it.
I am still working so OK with that.
I have storage buckets in the bottom of the closet and clothes on the rod. Some hanging organizer things in there too.
I have one whole bucket just for bath time for Ron. It is very convenient. Towels, washcloths, chux, body wash, wipes, and deodorant.
Plus I have some storage food in the closet but not as much as I'd like. Long term storage food has to be kept in a house if you want a good life out of it. Shoes, I have some hanging shelf things for them but I only have about 10 pair. A 20 pound bag of cat food... that's about it.
I keep the top of the dresser clear so the cats can lounge and look out the window.
