Smiley Back from our SECOND Home Depot run. Turns out that Skywise needed more jackposts and lumber. I also picked up another 50 gallon trash can -- we're generating a lot of trash. Last week's trash still hasn't been picked up. Time to get "testy". Skywise is back at work and I will be as soon as I recover from this latest expedition...... Smiley

Moonie's cake is baking.
She didn't want a large one so I cut the recipe in half.
Hope it works.

Afternoon.
Another run to Home Depot today after a stop at Rural King.
Smiley We needed more jackposts. Fortunately, once this project is done they won't be laying around unused as there are several places that need additional support.
Now to catch my breath and get caught up.

Afternoon.
Been to town and back.
The trash STILL hasn't been picked up.
Gonna have to chase someone down about that. Smiley Smiley Smiley
Knees "hurt" when sitting and "hurt like HELL" when standing or walking. Gonna be a long day.
Nothing from my course instructor yet. Since he took the "vaccine" I'm trying not to worry.

This week's course work has come in and the instructor make a post in the class group so he's still breathing. Hoping he'll be one of the lucky ones that doesn't have a bad reaction.

The trash company is getting one more day since we're still scheduled for pick-up tomorrow. If it isn't picked up by the usual time, I'll be using the toll free number and raising some hell.  Smiley Smiley

Afternoon.
Another trip to Home Depot. At this rate, they're going to give us an assigned parking space!
Anyway, we returned stuff, bought more stuff and ate. Now we're back, I've already taken painkiller and as soon as it kicks in, I'll start on the laundry  Smiley and dishes. Smiley

Fortunately for all concerned, the trash was picked up this morning so some poor customer service representative has been spared my wrath. Which is good 'cause I have a few dozen other things to deal with today!  Smiley

We may have another cat. A young black (mostly) and white tom cat started showing up a few days ago. He likes Moonie but isn't sure about me -- yet.
What is interesting is that the Prince doesn't seem to mind his presence. The Prince isn't grooming the newcomer but he isn't after him with teeth and claws either. The new guy wants to come inside but is currently a bit hesitant. The girlcats hiss at him but that's understandable given he's an intact male.

SunLord hasn't encountered him yet but given his age, SunLord doesn't go far from the house unless Skywise is with him. We'll have to see what happens when they encounter each other. He's been watching from Moonie's bedroom window but hasn't attempted to go through it -- which he would have done a few years ago.

Damn the internet is boring tonight.
The girls are watching Supergirl but I'm behind so I'm going to set aside several stretches of time to get caught up on everything. I'm hoping things will settle down soon.....

I took another painkiller a few minutes ago.
My right leg tried to buckle while I was washing dishes and I really don't have time for babying my knee. So.. ibuprofen.

Dinner is over.
Waiting for Skywise to call.
Wondering if physical activity will ever be possible again.
Wondering how long I'll have to wait to have my knees fixed since I kinda want to wait until this whole "lockdown" thing is over.
Really tired of not being able to do the simplest things because of osteoarthritis.
Heading out before this pity party gets out of hand.

Everyone sleep well, be safe, stay calm and STAY HEALTHY!!! Mask ON 1

WELL!
Our furry little visitor came into the house with Skywise last night and roamed around getting the lay of the land. He ate and he knows what a litter box is for 'cause he used the one in the small bathroom.
The other cats weren't thrilled, especially SunLord. We finally got the little guy to go back outside -- at 3:30 am -- and went to bed. This proves that he isn't a feral, he was someone's cat, so we're thinking that he's been dumped or he's a farm/barn cat looking for a better situation.  Black Cat 180  Smiley

Moonie reported that he jumped up onto her bedroom window early this morning.Smiley
He was on the front steps, guarding my package, when we got home from lunch, he greeted everyone with purrs and leg rubs and was in the door as soon as Skywise opened it. He's currently in the house, the cat door is open so everyone can go in and out at will which "could" help.
We're currently trying to find out what he wants to be called. Since it seems that we've been "claimed" we'll have to wait and see how it goes...

The little boycat is still in the house, making himself at home. The others have stopped following him -- for the moment at least.

The little guy has spent the whole afternoon asleep in the basement. He has now gone out the cat door, perhaps to do his business.
We'll see if he comes back or if he has somewhere else to be.....

The little guy seems quite attached to Moonie. We're trying to discover what name he likes. So far, no luck.

There's a problem with FB right now.
My newsfeed is very short and gets shorter every time I refresh it.
Maybe they're working to get us used to not having it.
I'm adapting quickly.

I've been editing one of my lessons and my ears have given out. Since I need to take my pill and hang up laundry, I quitting that for the night.

At sundown, our cats came in but our little furry visitor stayed outside. In spite of a short downpour, he hasn't wanted in. He may have gone back to wherever he was staying before he came here last night. We'll see if he comes back.

Afternoon.
We're back from the produce run and lunch.
It rained like hell last night. I don't know how much yet, haven't checked the rain gauge.
Gonna get caught up before I start on editing and chores.

Got outside and did some wildcrafting.
My knees didn't like it but I got a nice haul. I still have to clean up my "catch" but that can wait.

Oh! By the way, we got nearly 2 inches of rain last night. The local creeks are running high and fast.

Our little furry visitor has been making himself at home. He spent last night and a good part of the day inside.
It looks like we have a new cat. The others, except SunLord, are accepting him, the girls somewhat grudgingly. So we're now deciding on a name for him -- he hasn't shown a preference so far -- so we can take him in to the vet and get him checked out, tested, vaccinated and scheduled for his neutering surgery. That may make the girls more tolerant of him. They do NOT like "intact" males!
