glacier_kitty1. Do you consider yourself to be a good housekeeper? Why or why not? Not especially, I'm tired when I get home from work, and Curti loves knocking things over haha
2. Are there any household chores that you enjoy doing? If so, what and why? Laundry is the most tolerable to me, I can spread it out instead of doing it all at once
3. Which household chore frustrates/angers you the most? Cleaning out the litterbox is annoying and gross lol, and I don't really like cleaning the bathroom either..it can be gross too :P
4. When doing household chores, what do you do to make them seem less of a "chore"? Talk to myself or Curti, maybe sing a favorite song haha
5. Which chore do you find yourself doing most often, and why? The litterbox, have to keep Curti happy! Laundry too, clean clothes are nice :P
For some reason, Curti was sticking his tongue out last night:
Awwww. Some of his features are similar to Abby's! I don't know why, but he likes licking my feet..cats are weird LOL
The bookstore is really hurting without donations..customers tell me we need to get new books in, and regulars have stopped coming in as much, and the store can be dead for a couple hours before someone comes in. It's depressing! I've tried telling Lucie and/or Shelby we HAVE to start taking donations again, but they won't listen to me or Bill for some reason. I tried bringing it up again to Shelby yesterday but talking to her is like talking to a brick wall. I told her the store is going to die and she told me to stop worrying because it's not my burden to shoulder..ummm if I LOSE MY JOB because of your terrible manager skills, then YES, I am going to carry that burden and worry! Shelby didn't used to be this way, but ever since her grandma died two or three or so years ago, she has been super unhappy and grumpy and controlling. Someone from the other building came to get books and she said they're not allowed to talk to each other at all over there. No one is happy with the "management"..I'm surprised people haven't quit yet. It's incredibly frustrating and depressing. I really hope things get better, especially when we start taking donations again, and when we get a new bookstore manager (I really miss Vicki, she was amazing). This has definitely been a rough year for the Literacy Council!
It snowed this morning! Winter is coming fast D:
20. Have you ever been in an accident? Nothing crazy, just falling when rollerskating, spraining my ankle, things like that
21. The worst vacation you've ever been on: Maybe to a cabin in Oklahoma with family around 2005-2006, I was bored without the Internet and civilization LOL
22. A book that makes you cry: I SOBBED after reading Mrs. Chippy's Last Expedition..they had to shoot all the animals after the Endurance sank, and Chippy was like "they're spoiling me and treating me so well!" ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
23. The most beautiful place you've ever been: The Swiss Alps, Valdez, Glacier Bay, etc
24. Your first concert: Trans-Siberian Orchestra, in 2005. Super epic!
25. A time you had to be strong: When I got covid the second time..I wasn't going to let it hurt me so much like the first time!
