Lunch is sticking around.
Sunrise, sunset
Ooof.
What a long day today – and it’s not even 6pm as I write this!
The girls and I planned to head out early to the city, which meant I was out earlier than usual to do my rounds. The outside cats did not seem to appreciate me coming out so early to feed them! :-D The sun wasn’t even up yet, but what a beautiful sky! Continue reading

One Year Ago Today: the disaster of the movers
Things have been pretty quiet around here, lately. We’ve been slowly decorating the house for Christmas, wrapping a few gifts, getting my husband to a medical appointment. Tomorrow, the girls and I will be making a trip into the city. Pretty boring and domestic stuff.
Thinking back to last year, I have really learned to appreciate boring and domestic! Continue reading

Beep Beep is the cat we see most often on the bird feeder. :-D
I don’t know what was at the side of the house, but it sure got her attention!

Frosty
It was so pretty and sparkly, while doing my morning rounds.
There are still lots of ornamental apples on the tree, and the ground below is just covered with hoof prints. So is the area under the crab apple trees along the spruce grove, with a well trod path to the feeding area.
I wish I could have captured just how shiny everything was! The very air was glittering.

Cat Mess
So, this is what the cats left for me, this morning.
Glancing out the bathroom window, earlier, there were 3 or 4 of them – including Big Jim sitting over the light bulb – looking at me with innocent faces.
Or, more like, “where’s our food and warm water, human?”
It’s all fixed up now, but I wonder how it happened. From the looks of the top of that box, I’m guessing a cat slid off, taking the blanket with it. But how did the piece of Styrofoam insulation get knocked off? The one that was between the box and the arm bar on the transfer bench?
The one that was at me feet, as I took this picture!
I look forward to building something better for the cats, next summer. I have a few ideas, but I haven’t built anything of substance since I helped my dad build the desk I’m using right now. One of the downsides of being the youngest of 5, and having 3 older brothers. My dad didn’t have much need to show me how to do stuff like that, and my mom was determined to keep me in the house, for my “duties as a woman”.
Well, I can learn, and I’ve got two strapping young women to help me out. :-D

Critter of the day – Hello, Beep!
As I write this post, she is back on the feeder!
I’ve just uploaded a whole bunch of photos from the living room camera, and will be posting some over the next few days. :-)
