chemical help

how do some people get so much done and make it seem so effortless? i have been trying to get off my butt to take care of some things around the house, and nada, nothing, can't do it. i get the usual upkeep done, the dishes, laundry sort of (it's on the folding table in the basement and i've been dressing from there), and cooking for myself and the occasional guest. but the big stuff, the big project - re-arranging a room to start a cascade of re-arrangements - this is taking me years.

and friends talk about their big projects and how they got so much done on the weekends, blah, blah... i need a personal assistant. or i should learn to drink coffee. i'm sleepy on the weekends!

in other news, i learned off of my Addison's Dog chat group that i should probably be giving pup a teensy bit of pred every day, instead of her weekly little bit, and that should help her peeing inside. did i mention this? for the last couple of months, she had pee'ed inside, in my unfinished basement, a couple of times a week. she is very housetrained, so this is highly unusual behavior. and this is not incontinence, when she pees in her sleep - that's been medicated away. so a crumb of pred for pup, and it seems to be working - only one puddle inside this last week.

i guess we all need a little chemical help now and then. i think pup's is a bit more urgent than my laziness, since most of hers keeps her alive, but maybe i'll have a real coca-cola with lots of sugar and caffienne and see what happens.

and keep working on pup's meds - i just want to give her the best life i can.
