A Return to Normalacy...

Ryan (and the seniors) are back from the cruise. I'm looking forward to things getting back to normal. It always seems like the week should be a good one for getting things done and I do get things done. However, I never get the things that I'd slated for that time done. It's frustrating. I did get the Summer Reading Challenge set up. So that's a thing.

In home news, we are officially looking for a home for our cat Ashley. We've been wrestling with it for a while now, but we just can't keep him. He keeps taking aggressive swiping leaps at Thomas. It would be one thing if Thomas was doing anything at all to incite it, but it really just is a completely random thing. Thomas has long since learned to give Ashley a wide berth. Ashley just lunges at him. The weird thing is that he never does it to Ryan or I. He mostly avoids Ryan and he's positively cuddly with me.

I could deal with the lost sleep when Ashley started deliberately trying to wake me up every night between midnight and 1 AM. I could deal with giving him insulin shots since he's really very tolerant of it. This aggression towards Thomas I just can't tolerate. He's always been weirdly aggressive with Thomas even when he was a baby, but it seems like it is getting worse in the last six months. We even tried the pheromone collar. No dice.

It really sucks. I feel like I failed Ashley somehow.
