Good morning, my friends. It started as an ordinary day...playing word games, checking email, perusing the news to see if the United States is at war with Europe yet. (Just kidding about that last part...sort of.) When I'd had my coffee, I asked Mike if he'd like breakfast first or if I should write my blog post first. He opted for breakfast. And everything was going along fine until I went to wash out the bowl emptied of pancake batter (pancakes on the griddle by then). When I turned the faucet on...nothing. Not a dribble ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. It's the start of a brand new week. There's plenty on my to-do list today, after taking an NBS day yesterday. I still think there will be plenty of time for sewing. So let's see...what's going on?
Well, Smitty is taking to his new geriatric kitty pole. It has taken him a while to warm up to it. We thought it might be just too chilly next to the window. With snow on the ground, it's a better place to keep an eye on his domain than to be outside ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. It was so late in the day when I got myself up and around that I skipped over doing any slow-stitching. It's almost unheard of. Instead, I took a walk on the treadmill. I know...who woulda' thought? I'll get back to my slow-stitching this morning.

Good morning, my friends. I'm a little bleary-eyed as I'm writing this morning. I woke up too early, and then couldn't get back to sleep. I've had worse early-awakenings, and so it's not all bad. And since I don't have to go anywhere today, it hardly matters. I'm sure a nap is in my future...maybe sooner than you might think.
It was a good sewing day yesterday. I sewed my guts out and got quite a bit done. The kitties and I had a meeting of the minds over the first challenge ...

read moreGood morning my friends. My morning got off to a slow start yesterday. For one thing, I slept in until 7:00 a.m. I'm an early-to-bed-early-to-rise kind of person. Generally, I'm up and at 'em during the 5:00 hour, and so losing two hours out of my morning is a lot. I didn't even get dressed until shortly before noon. Sadie was busy outside. She was appalled at the level of sloth.

Good morning, my friends. It's another coolish, cloudy day here at the Three Cats Ranch. I was hoping we could eat outside tonight, but it's probably going to be a little too chilly. That's okay. Summer is only just barely getting started. Generally, we don't get predictably warm weather until after the Fourth of July holiday. Speaking of the Fourth, we have a stay-at-home celebration planned. A friend with no family nearby has a Fourth of July birthday, and we've invited him up for dinner on that day. I'll bake him some cookies. Everyone ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. We survived our grocery shopping trip yesterday, although we both needed naps by the time we got home. When we drove up our driveway, a doe was relaxing in the shade of one of our flowering plum trees. Sorry for the poor quality of this picture. I was far away (for a phone picture). I worried if I tried moving closer, I would scare her away.

Good morning, my friends. I'm thinking of it as a good morning even though we have grocery shopping to do today. It's a long list, and I'm dreading it. When that's finished, though, the day is my own. I should probably water the annuals too. That never seems like a chore, and it gives me a chance to see what's new. Yesterday would have been my usual day to water them, but they were still fairly wet. I decided to wait a day. While I was out, I filled the birdfeeders, and then I walked ...

read moreGood morning, my friends, and welcome to Wednesday. The sun is shining here, just as the weatherman promised. I'd be out pulling weeds this morning, except that I'm getting a pedicure today. It'll be good to have my personal self re-groomed, even if the outdoors still looks a complete mess.
Mike spoke with our neighbor yesterday about what kind of weather caused the downed limbs we're seeing. It was a heavy wet snow coupled with high winds, and it all happened just after we left home back in February. Mike's to-do list for today includes ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. The deluge we were expecting lasted less than 24 hours. We had several dry hours yesterday, and so I was able to get outside and pull a bucket of weeds. We're expecting a little more rain today, but I still think I'll be able to make some progress on the weeds. Also on today's agenda...a badly-needed haircut. I trimmed it a few times while we were traveling, and actually, I think I like it a little bit longer than how I've been wearing it. In any case, it needs to be ...
