Day 23

Jim left for Burning Man today and didn't leave at the same time.
I'm at my parents until after Labor Day. It's hard not being at my house. It's so much easier being in your own space. My poor kitty, Nala, is home all by herself till I return. I hope all the living things that are dependent on me will survive the next 6 weeks when I can start taking care of them again. My saltwater tanks need cleaned. It's a good thing that I mainly have coral tanks and inverts. I just hope my beautiful sea urchin survives. He is the most beautiful short spine that I have ever seen, so many colors. I have given up on my flowers outside and most of my plants inside. With the hot weather, I think everything outside is almost dead. Although, I Jim and I ate some of our cherry tomatoes the other day. They were very good.
I guess I can sum up everything as frustration at the moment. I can't do anything for myself. I can't even be in my home because I boyfriend is gone on vacation, without me. The things that I enjoy to do, I can't. Recovering from surgery has been horrid.
