Rest/Recovery

allezhop I'm doing better but need to rest after every ten minutes of being lightly active. This morning I got a few chores done, then slept the rest of the morning. I'm going to try to sit up and watch TV for a little while. I just took a shower and did about 15 minutes of stretching, so this is the most active I've been consistently in days.
I opened up the trap I bought for TNR and I am not sure it's going to work. It was advertised on eBay as being for raccoons, but it's pretty flimsy. I may just shell out and buy the nice one the rescuers recommended. Even though I can rent from the place I have the TNR appointment, it's quite a drive. I like the idea of having my own. I don't know what to do with this flimsy one though. I might still use it for "trap training," where you put food in there without setting the trap, so they get used to going into it.
I'm really glad I cancelled the 2027 cruise for financial reasons, but I also miss the feeling of having something to look forward to. So I will see what more affordable, smaller luxuries I can put on the calendar - or maybe even start planning for the Alaska trip in 2033. The easiest choice for that is Nome, but I do like planning, so I can take time figuring out how to get there and how long to stay. And that doesn't cost anything!
