And that should do the trick.
See how easy????
Basementcat has become Outdoorcat again. He’s just hanging out on the porch, chowing down on cat food and accepting our pats and scratches as his due. He’s ventured out to check out the surrounds, but they are pretty wet, so he comes right back. LSA
Heisenberg's Law of Cat Probability (Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle as Applied to Cats) It is not possible to predict where a cat actually is, only the probability of where it "might" be. As soon as you know where it is, it will move.
(I'm not trying to play one-upsmanship, but...) Papa went in ahead of that invation laying communications wire.
That’s a great kitty thread. Thanks for the ping.
I liked the escape velocity laws.
Mr. K. didn’t have any qualms about the atomic bombs being dropped. He figured that kept him alive.
Kept thousand of our boys alive, they did.
Evenin’ all. Purty good day here, for the most part.
Luke and I spent five hours at the pool. I spent the last three under an umbrella, but am still sunburned. I kept Luke covered in SPF 30, but he’s still rather tomato-esque. But a good time was had by most.
Mrs. spent the day taking rides on the Nana coaster. She’s got pneumonia in one lung and hasn’t been feeling well. But she’s breathing okay and they’re keeping her at the nursing home. And so it continues...
Abby eats, sleeps and goes to the box. But she doesn’t move much beyond that. I’ll check in with thevet this week.
SPF 30 and he still got burned like that? Was it 100 degrees outside?
Heh, that was a good one and absolutely true. Someone has spent a lot of time observing cats.
Gypsy had a nice long walk and is presently resting though ever aware for the opening of the refrigerator or any movement toward the kitchen.
Evening Corin - that was a good long pool session, hopefully adult beverages were available. We had some sun, quite a bit of rain. Radar shows we’ll likely have more tonight.
Saw quite a flag display along one street while on our walk. About eight houses had several flags each. Just the same four on our street; we usually have them up, weather permitting.
It was in the 80s all day, not a cloud in the sky. And he spent 50 minutes out of every hour in the water.
Sadly, no adult beverages allowed during regular pool hours. It’s a license/liability thing. Although a few of us have been known to bring our “special cups” I didn’t get around to that today.
The worse thing I saw was at 3:00 p.m. for the moment of silence. People got quiet and then a young lady offered a simple prayer and sang The National Anthem.
I immediately stood, and so did a handful of others. But there were over 100 people there and less than 10 of us standing.
Helluva way to teach your children about respect for the flag.
Amazing, simply amazing. we concur; you’d have thought more would participated,.
Which reminds me, getting toward dusk, I’ll bring the flag in. The contractor across the street flies his all night, but he’s got a flagpole and a light on it.
Got the last of the friends out the door a couple hours ago and now we’re recovering.
Some bad tornadoes went through fifty miles north last night and knocked down a whole town. We had a storm and sirens, and spent some time in the basement, but that was it.
Yup, brought Papa’s flag in a bit ago. I had a nylon all-weather flag that I left up after 9/11 (we always have the front light on). But it faded and I took it down. Papa’s flag is cotton, so it only flies on sunny days.
We had it flown over the Capital for one of his birthdays.
Good to hear y’all are OK! I thought the tornadoes weren’t supposed to be in your immediate vicinity, but you can never be sure where those suckers are gonna go.
We took down our flag holder when we painted the house last year, and with winter coming on, and the plans to put a porch on the front, we just never put it back up.
