Our wings are not tired.

What a delight, Suzi! Now I am smiling too.

After a long drought period the skies have opened and it is flooding all over. I drove very slowly home from getting my nails done and my head is pounding worse than the thunder. If it hadn't been so late I would have just waited it out. Dislike driving on flooded streets. Not dangerous type flooding, just have to crawl along to not have 100 foot spray type flooding.

My SIL had bags of clothes she thought I would like that she got from who knows where. I was amused that she actually thinks I wear like an 8 or small size.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, that's sweet, Suzi.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I worked from home today and the kittens are so noisy and also dirty. good lord. I am concerned that two are not eating the wet food like the others so I got a bottle and cut the end of the nipple off and they are both taking the kitten formula stuff that way and then I was able to sneak in some of the wet food when they were chomping down. razor sharp teeth and claws are leaving marks all over my hands and forearms, maybe my neck also.

cleaned out the whole kennel again today and did another load of laundry. I am getting a tiny taste of what people dealt with for infants. NO THANK YOU.

Another thing I like about British Antiques Roadshow: the appraiser was presented with a box of toys that had been packed away when the owner, a 10-year-old boy, had been killed in the 30s. The appraiser audibly choked up and said she felt deeply uncomfortable about putting a value on the treasures of a dead little boy but he deserved not to be forgotten.

Herding cats for fun

Aw, baby kitties. What a handful, how much nasty laundry to do.

The good part of raising kitties is that by six to eight weeks, they will be self feeding AND self cleaning.

I understand that tiny humans take a lot longer to reach those milestones.

Maybe it's been long enough since Ellie that I need another cat.

Connie are you watching in,one or is it on pbs or what!

I was thinking earlier a friend was going to be going out and if I joined maybe I'd make it to dancing. Nope. She canceled and then I was on the couch and then it was 830 and I was putting my pjs on and preparing to read the new book I downloade, from bed. Dancing only started 8minutes ago. ...when did I get so old?

Season 35 is on the BritBox streaming service. It's a collaborative effort between the BBC and, I think, Channel 4.

Edit: Nope, the BBC and ITV. Netflix, Acorn, YouTube, and BritBox are my sources of non-PBS TV.
