Starting to feel better today. Wiped out already, really tired, but I'm going to push myself a bit and try to get stuff done around the house. Thanksgiving is on Thursday in the US and we have a full house of people coming, so I want to get as much done as possible so we can enjoy the holiday and people, rather than running around...

Poor Phryne doesn't know what hit her. One moment she was able to fly, the next she was not.
While she was preening, she had her back to me and one wing extended, showing her flight feathers. I had scissors...**snip**...she looked up, but continued preening on the other side...**snip**...what the? The looked around, but couldn't see what had tugged at her feathers. later she tried...

Aww, you are not a bad vet tech student. See, you are still learning! :)
Ugh, sick. Second time in a week. Ugh.
juliju:
I hope u get better soon 😘😘
I don't know what's the matter with me. I feel so disassociated from my emotions, from what is happening around me. I seem to not be able to be happy or take joy from just about anything around me. This is not just about little Phryne being a stinker, or about me being sick the last week. Something else is really wrong with me, it...

Do you ever think about ending? Just...not existing any more? I've been thinking of it lots lately. Have to say, it's seems a bit appealing. Calm, no worry, no stress, no anxiety. Sure, I wouldn't be able to enjoy that state since I wouldn't exist any longer, but still....
Ugh, I need to move on. **deep breath, let it out** Okay. Moving on. Can't keep dwelling on Phryne being mean. Her wings were mostly trimmed, left the two outside feather long to give her a little lift. Might have to trim those as well. We'll see.
What a difference a day makes. Not sure how much longer I can take being attacked on a daily basis. Phryne was at it again, mangled both my forefingers yesterday morning...they are a bloody mess, just from wanting her to step up onto my finger. She latched on and dug her beak in, and nothing would get her off. Multiple times. I finally gave up...

Karen's headed off to the wilds of D.C. for the night. She has a meeting tomorrow, then will return tomorrow late. So a quick trip. Phryne is doing really well, has mellowed out and is being really sweet again. I'm tired. Probably an early night. Maybe make a stew tomorrow? Love and hugs to you all.
Hope you all had a fun Halloween. We stayed home and didn't do anything. Poor Karen's a bit sick, so isn't feeling up to much. Fortunately, we didn't have anyone stop by. Phryne was especially cute and snuggly last night. She's a bit freaked out today, so I'm trying to give her plenty of space. Nothing else going on but paying bills and calling insurance...

Paying bills should be banned :'D
It was a very difficult week, but we seem to be through the worst of it and Phryne is not mauling my hands as much any longer. My hands are still healing, and the last really bad bite I got was Saturday night over a disputed bedtime. She is still biting, but no blood has been drawn the last 2 days. Hopefully we are moving...

I really want to hide in bed under the covers. 
**deep breath**
Okay, onward.
So yesterday's total was 16 bites that bled. I'm not even totaling the ones that didn't bleed. She was definitely in an aggressive mood. Today we have started with 2 more bloody bites. :-( This then alternates with her climbing inside my sweater and being cute. One of my pinkies still is not quite working right, she definitely bit a nerve, and I heard a...
