October 7th

 Figaro does this thing where he will scream at me around 2:30am and he doesn't stop. I will feed him like I would at Joe's moms and he still keeps me up usually until Joe gets up for work around 5:30am. The food trick doesn't work here so I don't know what else to try. The other night I got up and played with for 20 minutes hoping that would stop him, nope. Joe sleeps through everything so he's just snoring away. The longest I've ignored Figaro's screams has been for two hours. Nothing changes, he still screams. Now he sits on the ledge of my side of the bed and stares at me while screaming. He will also tap on my shoulders. He is literally insane. Once I get up for good he will go upstairs and go to sleep 😐 I think he hates me lol. 

Now that he's more comfortable he declares the upstairs as his. He always steals everything from Cherry. So he has the carrier now and she sleeps on the hard floor. We made her a bed and got one of the blankets from home so she'd go on it. She lays there and Figaro saw her there the other day. So he attacked her and stole her spot. She is too nice to him, one day she's going to claw his eyes out or something lol. 

Enough about my monster cat. I was going to take Joe to work today so I can have the truck but that didn't work out. I was finally getting some sleep once Joe left. So I'm hoping that Fig will let me sleep today so I can take the truck. I have to do grocery shopping and I want to check out one of the other parks in the area. I'm going to try and make it in time to try a lavender coffee as well. The one apothecary that I want to check out is closed on Sunday's so I'm going to check out the one that is closer to us. Doesn't seem to have as much stuff and doesn't mention anything about herbs. So we will see. 

I'm going to continue scrapbooking today. Make Joe's lunch and he wants the wraps I made yesterday for dinner again. I was going to walk to the park again but it's supposed to rain here soon. I might risk it afterwards. 

This is another spot that Cherry loved and Figaro was too scared to try out. I wonder if he remembers being a little baby and then trying to act tough? Lol. He loves to watch the deer and the chipmunk here. Cherry usually sleeps the night in this spot and sits here all morning chirping at all the woodland creatures.
