MOVING ON

Now that I’ve warned the world and no one’s listened to my tiny little voice, it’s time to move on. What will be, will be, que sera sera, and all that. Not that I expected anything to come of my efforts, it just seemed only right to try.

So. I have a cat. I’ve been wanting a cat for some company, and she’s a cutie. Mostly Siamese mixed with “other”, a very healthy and inquisitive little kitten that took to me right off. A good friend of mine found her for me and showed up at my door with her and a box full of cat toys, a cat bed, a little cubby-hole, assemble-yourself house for her to explore. I was already prepared with dry and canned cat food, a litter box etc., so we were immediately off to a good start.

Meanwhile the smoky air is slowly becoming less so as the fire season winds down and the existing fires are controlled, but it’s been a rough summer for breathing, let me tell you. I was forced to buy some big HEPA filter air cleaners for the house, it got so unhealthy around here.

Time marches on, we’re well into Fall, the fruit trees are about done producing except for a few more figs, maybe, and soon their leaves will be dropping. Then winter, and leaner stocks on store shelves as the shipping morass really takes hold and basic products get hard to find.

So now is the time to do like the ants and the bees and stock up, since our winter of shortages may last well into next year and the year beyond, you never know.
