It just poured down rain I guess for tomorrow’s 7 degree day. I’m ready to slip on the ice, anybody else?


RIP

I am closely related to a tortoise because I hate cold. Anything under 68 is my no-comfort zone!
A very good reason to stay inside today!

Silly me. . . I just watched a video on Google on how to set a mousetrap, and I did it all wrong. But now I've got the scoop, I'll set them again this a.m.
I thought you had a bunch of kittys...evidently they're animal lovers like you.

Nope, I got rid of all the junk food in the house after the holidays. I have no will power and I’m already struggling with my calorie allowance after Sabine’s Christmas goodies. Once I passed 30, weight control has become a constant struggle[emoji35]... I know.... it takes the fun outta everything[emoji849]
I am losing that battle all the time.

Little scaredy wussys. Sounds like our cat. The only thing he hunts are bugs. He shows me where they are and expects me to give a bug the boot...
Trust me, you have lower vet bills if the cats corner the "intruder" and call you to come deal with it, vs. "taking care" of it themselves. Anubis ("Nubi") is infamous around here for science projects that sometimes start out that way. Still not sure he's convinced that frogs and lizards from outside aren't supposed to be on the menu.

Nubi is the cat that, if he absolutely has to take a pill and there's no other way to medicate him... then we take him into the vet's office and have them do it. No joke. Nubi can hiss and spit a pill out 1.5 feet away, all at the same time. Plus he seems to get about three times heavier when you try to medicate him.

I decided to try an AeroGarden with lettuce, and it’s been a week and the lettuce that was a seed 7 days ago is now 4 inches tall.

That’s pretty cool! I have never been successful growing plants of any kind... in fact, I’m known for killing the most strongest of specimens.... until I became a tort mom.. now, I can throw out left overs and they majestically root and grow[emoji847]
