	Heading out. One exhausted writerperson here. Vacation is over and it's back to work at the Post Office for Skywise and back to writing for me. Hopefully, the break has refreshed my creative functions. Also, the weight training starts tomorrow. Everyone sleep well and be safe.

	Morning! Skywise starts his "going back to work" week with a dental appointment this morning. Poor man. We'll be heading off shortly. I'll check in when we get back. Bye!

	We've been back for a while but we had a lot to do once we got here and this is my first opportunity to sit down! Skywise's appointment didn't take long and the local is wearing off pretty fast. He's getting ready to go. Catch ya later.

	It's been three hours and so far no sign of major pain. The symptoms I was having have subsided so maybe [fingers crossed!] I managed to derail the "pain train" before it got here. Now to try to get caught up....

	I'm heading out. Despite my three hour stint in the dark, during which I fell asleep, I'm beat. Need sleepies and I suspect that certain muscle groups will be complaining mightily come morning. �Fortunately, tomorrow I will be working other muscle groups.... Everyone sleep well and be safe.

	Morning! It's raining. The cats are missing their morning walk with Skywise and are cranky. Hopefully, they will "settle" eventually and catch up on their sleep. Thinking about FOOD! I'm hungry! Later....

	I'm stuffed! I made sausage gravy and biscuits. Not really "health food" but good for a day like today! I got a Design Toscano catalog in the mail today. wail Not only does it have its usual unbearably divine stuff but the current catalog has a special GOTHIC SECTION! groan In order to do justice to the pieces, we'd have to tear down the Hall and rebuild it as a castle! Which is a splendid idea but not practical from a financial standpoint! Why, oh why, do I have such expensive and "out of the mainstream" taste??!!! Post # 14,141

	looks around blinking The War Queen meowed at me to come lay down on the bed with her. I did, intending to cuddle with her for a while and read a bit. I just woke up. sigh Guess I need more "recovery time" from the vacation than I thought.

	Ooookkkaaayyy. Spirit just brought it to my attention that a large piece of dead tree is down in the backyard. It must have just "fell" because there hasn't been any wind today and the rain hasn't been THAT heavy. I'll be pulling into the woods tomorrow or Thursday when the ground is dry enough.

	Making some headway. The War Queen thinks she wants out. sigh She's not going to get her way which means I'll have a large cranky Queen on my hands. REALLY need that cat enclosure....

	Back from town. We were out of milk -- CAN'T be out of milk! -- so we got some and a few other things. I've made a word doc of my "Journey" thread. I did it fast so I have a lot of extraneous stuff to edit out but when that's done and I've put in the "smiley notations", I'm going to print it out and paste it into the journal I've just retired. For a long while there, that thread was my journal and being the "completist" that I am, I want it all in one place. In other news, what I thought was one piece of tree is actually several. Oh well, that will make hauling it off easier. Stuff to do, be back later.

	I did some quick measuring in the back yard and made a rough layout of the kitty yard enclosure. The first phase will be 25 feet along the house and 35 feet out into the yard. There will be three doors since there are two more "phases" planned, one on each side, that will be accessed from Phase One through those doors. I've managed to leave the septic tank outside the enclosure since the darn thing does need servicing periodically and Sinister Bog won't be enclosed either. My goal is to eventually have as much yard as practical enclosed for the kitties. The next thing to figure out -- along with a materials list -- is how to make the space interesting for them. The wire I intend to use has holes that are too small for even a very small kitten to get through but large enough to permit mice, shrews and voles into the enclosure, especially if we leave feed out for the kitties during the day. That will provide a certain amount of entertainment for them! I'm also thinking about some sort of fountain/pool arrangement stocked with minnows from the bait shop. When Skywise and Moonie take the boycats out for walks in the woods, the SunLord has shown a keen interest and aptitude for catching the small fish that live in the creek so I'd like to do that for him. I have a number of books on the subject of "garden" fountains and pools so I can get some ideas from those.

	Well that's done! I have a personalized plate on the van and the "re-reserve" form arrived during the vacation -- lousy time for important mail to arrive! -- and neither Skywise nor I have been able to find the dratted thing. So, I just went online and re-reserved it on the BMV's website. One less thing to stress about now. I've got Book 3, Chapter 1 up on the desktop now. Time to get back to work on it. So much to do, I need to be triplets.... Later.

	I got some work done on Book 3, YaHooed with Nike and got dinner made and consumed. I'm now about to take another hit of aspirin because things are starting to ache a bit and I'd like to sleep at some point tonight. So off to the kitchen I go!

	Skywise is home and I'm a sleepy little writerperson. Everyone sleep well and be safe.

	We're back. It's raining and promises to continue to do so all day and well into the night. The Prince of Midnight wants to know why we don't make it stop so he can go for a walk with Skywise and SunLord. Sweet baby boycat... I am SO sleepy it isn't funny. I'm going to go make some tea and have some ice cream so I can take aspirin 'cause I'm so sore that it isn't funny! Later!

	Laid down and took a nap after Skywise left. It's still raining and a flood watch is out for this part of the state. We could get 5 inches today. sigh Lovely. Fortunately, as I've noted before, we have high real estate. Flooding isn't going to be a problem. Keeping the internet connection could be a problem. Now I should see about doing something useful. Later.

	Skywise left for work about half an hour ago. He's got the "superlate" shift tonight so my day is just getting started. Fortunately, we get the whole 3 day weekend so that's cool. I suppose I should be thinking about doing something useful. Fortunately, dinner's already decided so I don't have to worry about that. Later.

	I've been prowling around the web and catching up here and there. Really need to take a break and get the dishes done. They've probably soaked long enough..

	Just found something titled "War Declaration" on the desktop... It is the text of the joint resolution of Congress that declared that a state of war existed between the United States and the Imperial Government of Japan. In short, World War II. Whew!
