    What animals have you seen recently?

    No, the rabbit is at least as large as the cats, maybe larger. Except for Mama Kitty, I do not think that any of the three young ones eat any kind of live creature, although they do chase everything that they see moving. They might have accidentally swallowed a few bugs or moths. The mother...

    What books have you been reading lately?

    That was an excellent book, and I just finished it myself. I really enjoy reading all of the Robert bailey books. He is an attorney that lives here in Huntsville and all of his books are about this area. So, I not only enjoy the story, but I always learn more about this part of Alabama where I...

    What animals have you seen recently?

    The only animal that we have seen besides our dogs and cats was the neighbor’s big black rabbit. I think they must turn him loose in the yard and he just hops over here now and then and tries to play with our cats. He has even followed them up the ramp to the porch and if the gate was not shut...

    Oh, man, my whole body aches today ! Yesterday was such a gorgeous day and I worked outside and in the flower gardens for most of the day, and did a LOT of weedeating, and this morning, my back is letting me know that I did all that bending and yard work. Having my morning coffee, and then...

    Last thing you bought

    I got a small rechargeable stick vacuum cleaner. It can be used with the long handle like a regular upright vacuum, or you can use the cleaning attachments with it like a handheld vacuum. So far, I really like it ! Since it is cordless, I can just grab it and clean up whatever needs vacuumed...

    What's your Weather like today

    I do remember Howdy Doody ! We did not have a television when I was growing up, until I was on my teens, so I missed most of the cartoon and other television shows that kids watched back then. It seems like the show was sponsored by Wonder Bread, and I remember some kind of Howdy Doody coloring...

    What's your Weather like today

    I do not remember a princess with that name at all. Was this someone from a Disney movie ? I have always loved all of the seasons, although now that I am older, I do not like the snow and cold anymore, especially like we had in northern Idaho. Here, we are above zero most of the winter, snow is...

    What's your Weather like today

    This has been us for the last while, too ! It has been the Alabama Monsoon season here, for sure. Lots of rain, and warm weather, so humidity into the 90+ percentages on some days. We have had the dehumidifier on in the front room to even be able to breathe. It has not rained (yet) today, and...

    Last thing you've done when offline?

    I really love my battery weedeater, too ! I used to use those FEatherlights, but eventually even those were too heave for me, and I was not strong enough to start the gas engine, so Bobby had to help me. The same with my Ryobi rototiller. So, now I have the small battery ones. I am out of...

    What animals have you seen recently?

    My blueberries are just starting to get ripe, and now the birds have been out there trying to eat them. I ended up putting a net across the one that has the first ripe fruit, but will have to net the other berry bushes to keep the birds and squirrels out of all of them now. The kitty cats do a...

    Pasta made with tomato sauce and lots of veggies.

    What animals have you seen recently?

    Mostly we just see cats and dogs, but our neighbors have chickens, so there are roosters crowing at all hours of the day and night now, and it feels like we are living on a farm with all the noise. They also have ducks and at least one rabbit, which comes hopping through the yard every now and...

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    It appears that the gas companies just knew that they could get away with raising the fuel prices here, even though we have our own gasoline and oil sources tight here in the United States, plus more oil headed this way from Venezuela. I think that the government will put a stop to the...

    Wes Streeting says he will run in any leadership race - and calls for UK to rejoin EU

    I have not heard much about this, but it seems like having someone else besides Keir Starmer would be better for the country. What do most people in England think about this, @Smithy ?

    Dog and Cat Friends'

    Now that summer is pretty much here and we usually have the house doors open, the cats have been spending more time out in the back yard. Magellan (aka Jelly Bean) seems to enjoy helping me with yard and garden work, and when I was thinning the strawberries yesterday, he went right into the...

    Cruise ship hantavirus latest: Number of confirmed rat virus cases increases - as Trump gives update

    The good ting is that the hantavirus only comes from being in contact with infected rodents, so one person can’t catch it from another person. It is pretty bad that a cruise ship has that many rats on board that it has infected the people on the ship, and they are going to have to totally...

    Board games

    I have not played any board games for years and years, not since my kids were growing up and we played board games together as a family. I used to enjoy playing pinochle (card game) but I have not done that for many years either.
