Another action packed day at work. First I found out, on arrival, that we're delivering to our client today ... so I quickly printed the delivery notes.
And then I got busy with my re-designing - which I love! I'm re-designing the whole system, from client order to invoice - including Raw Material requirement planning, production planning, deliveries ... everything. In Excel! Which is something I really enjoy doing! I'm also re-doing the Bill of Materials, and adding every single item, as it is required. Basically, I'm doing a full supply-chain system - in Excel. Awesome challenge! But it is also very exhausting ...
Back at home, mippies came running home before I even had to call! But now? They're restless ... Mewthos is particularly difficult. So much so, that I'm beginning to worry whether maybe something is wrong? Okay, so I'm starting to get why he leaves wet spots ... usually only Wednesdays and Thursdays, as in, after I've been away all day for the third and fourth day in a row. Tonight, he left me a puddle while I was writing this blog ...
I've wiped it all up, again! Mini showed me the puddle he had left during the day, which I couldn't see when I came home and ended up treading everywhere! I wiped everything I could see ... grumble! Meanwhile, Mewthos is being mewly ... mewling for games, running off when I get up to go to him, wanting to play catch, mewling ... mewling .. mewling. Eventually I took an empty box and put it on the floor, he crawled in, and I carried him into the bathroom! He's as happy as a ... well, cat in a box! For a short while ... then starts mewling again ...
It's like that during the week and then on the weekend he's fine. But from Tuesday onward he gets worse and worse ... by Thursdays, like tonight, my nerves are finished and I'm running out of patience! I go pick him up, I play with him, I'm trying everything ... no peace. And when I loose my temper and shout at him ... he gives me a look that seems to say "I'm sorry, I don't know why, but I just can't help myself!"
Late in the evening, as I'm dropping off to sleep, he starts mewling around in circles as well ... like he wants something, but doesn't know what ... he walks around, mewling ... won't come under the duvet for a cuddle ... what makes it so annoying is, that he gets like that just as I'm nodding off and wakes me up again! And he clearly needs or wants something, but - just as clearly - doesn't know what!
Now I've just had enough! I've been trying to meet his needs for the past hour and he just goes off again and again, I can't take it anymore! I've just squirted a dose of Calm-Eze down his throat ... yet, here he sits by the passage door mewl, mewl, mewl, mewl, mewl! On and on and on and on! Ignoring him doesn't help either ... logically. But I really don't know what to do with him anymore ...
Well, tomorrow is Friday, so I get home early and I hope he runs off all his extra energy outside! I love the little pest, but I'm too old for baby tantrums ... I don't have the energy anymore.
And, of course, when Mewthos is being such a mewsance, there are three mippies being neglected! Sigh.
Oh, and dinner? I had a Porterhouse steak - not one mip wanted even one piece! Clearly they only like rump steak. Why? Not even a hint of a clue! Tomorrow I'll try Sirloin and see how they react.
