The Morning Floof looks like he got a Smart Scar on his Nu-nu.
Good morning.
I’ve been trying to get my niece in St George to meet up with me on the 1st and she won’t even answer my PMs on FB. I think her mother has something to do with this. I’m not happy about it, but it is what it is, and I refuse to be angry about it.
Her first loyalty is to her immediate family, but it irritates me that her mother would try to use her as a weapon against me. I plan to inform this niece that I was her mother’s legal guardian when she was pregnant with said niece. I don’t think she knows that. If, after that, she prefers to ignore me, I will respect that and not try to contact her again.

I’ve been cleaning up the clutter since I woke up (usually happens about an hour after getting out of bed) since the guy from TDS is coming today. I don’t want to, but I will keep that cable company and make the best of it.
I notice something cute about the Muppet Birds, and that is that when they see me take the cover off the top of the cage and unfold it, they sit together on the perch and touch beaks. Like they were kissing goodnight. :o]
Rescue-kitten. She has a much better life now, in spite of the scar.
It’s nice that the birds are affectionate. Bill the Cardinal will pick up a peanut from the ground and give it to Mrs. Bill.
The interaction of animals is always a source of wonder for me. These two are bonded, and it seems to have only been since Beaker has gotten healthy, grew to normal adult size and put on weight. When I first got them, they seemed to be just cage mates, and there was no bonding evident.
They’ve gotten to the point now that they aren’t all over the place when I put my hand in to get the food dish. It used to be that they both went all Gladys Kravitz on me. I’m glad they’re settling down.
Moving is difficult for animals and people, but you’ll all relax in your new environment if you give it time. Also, there’s a little more daylight each day!
The yutes and I are going to Kings Mountain battlefield today on an Educational Outing with Exertion. I’ve cut up apples and carrots, and next, I’ll make a sandwich.

Moves are what I do, but it seems the older I get, the harder the move is.
I discovered yesterday that I need to take all the appliances off the microwave cart and try to tighten the screws and bolts. As it is, the thing lists to port. Maybe I’ll start on that now, and when I’m done, I can vacuum the rug in anticipation of “company.” Sharon doesn’t count. She just moves things aside and sits down wherever she wants!
Do I smell a Friday Eve? I do. I do smell a Friday Eve?
Good morning, everyone.
Family.
Can’t live with ‘em. Can’t shoot ‘em.
Good luck on you Educational Outing with Exertion! Don’t forget to write! ;o]

Could you just list to port when using your appliances?
Of course, when I make such suggestions to Mrs. ArGee I get “the look.”
I could...but I have to take them off the cart to use them. But it’s OK because the Allen wrench took care of it! Now its standing at attention! Or at least at an At Ease stance...
As for Mrs ArGee and your puns, I grew up in a household where everyone was very punny, with the elder brothers vying for the Biggest Groaner Prize. ;o]
... being within three days of Friday.
It's Pi day, in some places. If your calculator doesn't have a Pi key, use 355/113.
Was poor kitteh in a brawl? Precious little face!
G’orning, y’all!
So happy Pi Day!
AND Happy Friday Eve!
And G’daftanoon to you.
Nully, how’s the knee?
The bionic one, that is.
No problems, all the surgery was for was trimming of a bit of shredded cartilage. No major carpentry work. Two 3/8” incisions, walking the same day, didn’t need PT, Dr. blessed the recovery yesterday. Still have a small scab, but that should be gone soon.
I get calls in Chinese advising me that a relative is in a Chinese jail and I need to send money to get them bailed out...
