Survivors Group Therapy

MS grabbed Truffle this morning and snipped a pile of fur from his coat while he made apprehensive noises.
Truffle: it'll grow back - it's a bit uneven at the moment. This weather makes you sleepy 😴
Polo: MS stocked up with cucumber 🥒 🥒 🥒
 
Mom is going to deep clean cages this morning but she has to get the motivation first. There's no hurry, but we would like it.

Honestly she should clean the rest of the house, too. It would be nice if she brought a bag of clothes to the thrift store, too.

She's going to try and get her student loan discharged. We have expensive school here.

She truly is sorry about that bat. If another one comes in she will let it escape. And if another one comes in she will have the house inspected for cracks and openings.
 
Aw, don't worry, I'm sure Mr Bat is going to avoid the house with the guinea pigs. Stripe would have protected you 🥋 Yes, the feeling of gotta do it, but there are more interesting things to do than cleaning 🧹 🧼 is a familiar one. I like to listen to a podcast while doing housekeeping 🎧🎶

I listen to either music or the news in French. Maybe I'll try a Quebec news station today. I should get used to the accent if I'm going to go on a vacation there when Barrett dies.

I deep clean cages every 3 days and the boys are ready for it. They like a neat, small pile of hay so they can sprawl on the fleece and it's really their favorite two days of the week. They don't nap for hours after. Stripe popcorns like mad waiting his turn but then plays catch me if you can when it is.

Kongo: my slave stocked up with cucumber too! And radish. I cant really grip them, but I love the green Leafs and munch them.
 
I know there's a conception that they are really bad for the environment, but they make them environmentally friendly now, I have air conditioning. It never gets over 21⁰ in my house. It's basically a dehumidifier, the guy who installed it said.

We have -11 temperatures in the winter and very hot, humid summers. American houses are kind of cheaply made so the insulation isn't great. It would probably get very, very hot in the house in july-september. I don't know if I could actually keep the pets alive and Barrett would struggle, too.

Know what? I do several things thats are not very good for the environment. I also avoid several other things that are not good for the environment. I smoke, but I dont have a driver licens and move myself around with public transport. I try to avoid fast fashion and instead I try to shop second hand. I dont have an air condition, but a fan. I often crash my phones completely and are very proud I had this one a whole year. We're just humans 😉

Kongo had some pellets mixed with his critical care today. It was a party! And I can clearly see a new tooth!

Yes I've had my phone for 3 years! About ready to get a new one.

Unfortunately America has terrible public transport so you have to have a car. But in France I used public transport.

Just listened to Quebec radio. Every few sentences there would be a word and I was like what? But I could get most of it. Honestly I didn't like the accent, not to be racist.

Yes, I bend the rules for my piggies and Socks. Your house sounds wonderful, no wonder the wildlife are sneaking in 😄
 
MS came home and switched on the fan. We are waggling our ears as the cool air goes around the room. She has a little dehumidifier which she likes. She will try it to see if it helps to cool the flat. MS has a tiny bit of French. Sometimes she listens to Radio Africa, but her comprehension is not very good, just a word here and there 🤨

Mom studied really hard for two years, she was always in the books. Then she got the idea to be an au pair but it took her a year of living there to become fluent. She ended up doing a bachelor's degree there and stayed a total of 6 years. During her bachelor's she had to do lots of literary translation and that really built up her vocabulary so she can use formal French but her real specialty is street French 😎. Even French teachers over here don't understand mom because she doesn't use textbook French. She uses slang.
