COLD DARK ROOM

[Bee62]

Good morning CDR.

It's a grey and miserable looking morning here in Kent. However,?it's not raining so I hoping the hayfield out the back will dry out enough for me to convert it back into a lawn.

There's a flock of assorted t-its on my bird feeders, dozens of them, which is lovely to watch. The long tailed t-its are my favourite as they are so dainty.

(Excuse the weird hyphen - TFO censors this type of bird!)


Too cold

All 5 survivors are still around this morning.

Good morning Linda,

in the morning it was miserable looking here too. Very foggy and cold ! Night temps had been 7 C ( 44.6 F ). Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-----
But the sun came out and now it is sunny and warm.

It seems to me that you need some sheep to graze on your hayfield .......

Good morning to the survivors.
They should get an order.
Thougest fish alive

 

[Bee62]

Something like that ?

Sorry, but this is the child in me.... It is still there, after 55 years of life, and I like it.

Busy day here catching up with things after our holiday. I also had to have my eyes tested. I need new glasses as my varifocals aren't working for reading any more... old age

[Gillian M]

That's the cost of loving our animals, worrying about them when we have to leave them behind..

True. Especially when they're alone.

Hi Linda. Back home, right?

Hope you enjoyed your trip.

Hi Linda. Back home, right?

Hope you enjoyed your trip.

We had a lovely trip, thank you

I have just been cleaning our car interior. The problem with holidaying in hot places is that the leather seats get plastered in sun cream

Luckily, Google informed me a few years ago that shaving foam was a good mild soap for removing it... and it really does work! I use Gillette Sensitive Skin Gel - other brands are available - as that's what JoesDad uses.

I also used it on my handbag which also seems to have been badly smeared this year!

Valeting tip for @johnandjade if he doesn't already use it

Hubby and I have decisions to make, and it's not easy.
He desperately needs a vacation: since he works out of the house, he can only get a REAL break if he leaves town. We are all set with plane and hotel reservations to spend a week in Seattle, and are due to leave Wednesday, Sept 6, returning the 12th. We have friends who will be house sitting and will look after our 3 cats and 2 torts. So far, so good.

BUT there's this darn thing called HURRICANE IRMA that is slowly heading in our direction. The husband of the couple who are House sitting for us had a kidney transplant a year ago. Since his health is fragile, they would probably evacuate rather than sit out a storm. I don't feel like I can ask someone else to take on the responsibility of taking our pets with them on evacuation.

And being away from home, knowing my cats and torts are all alone in a dangerous storm...I can't even think about that.
I've got to really put on my thinking cap, and be willing to be open to other plans...
