Realised my nipples were rather sensitive today. I have no idea what that means. Just as long as I’m not pregnant!

I’ve recently spent a grand on my car’s registration and insurance, $400 on the latest on a long line of repairs to my computer, $400 on my cat, which I’ve discovered has hyperthyroidism, which, if it needs treatment, will likely mean I have to put him to sleep since that’s a cost I can’t take, and there’s a branch touching the power lines going to the house which looks like I can’t reach, which will mean hiring professionals, which means more money. That’s besides the money I’ve spent recently on Mother’s Day and birthday gifts for my mum. I’ve been haemorrhaging money, with no end in sight, but on the other hand, I have been building up stress. Great, great quantities of stress.

Power Line … see if your electric utility will do it, preferably for free (after all, if the tree falls on it, they’re fixing the line).
Cat… My vet mentioned that there was the spendy cure and cheaper alternative treatments when she thought mine might’ve had it. In my case, I would’ve gone with the cure (his temperament would’ve precluded the other options). Fortunately, the vet seemed less convinced of it once we did a second weigh in and he was closer to normal.

That’s actually not a bad idea regarding the power company. This is government housing and we’re both on a pension, so they may possibly help. Worth a try if I need to.
My vet said that there’s nothing that needs to be done immediately. In about 3 months time, I’m to take him back to weigh him, and to keep doing that. If his weight falls below 4kg (it’s between 4 and 5kg now) then something will have to happen. Sadly for my cat, his thyroid reading was very high indeed, like 3 times higher than the acceptable maximum. So we’re letting the cat eat as much as he likes, as often as he likes in hope that it’ll stabilise his weight.
