Tuesday was six weeks since my knee was replaced. Overall, I’m quite pleased. Yesterday and today, I’m a little achy with lower back pain — not sure if it’s related or not. I’ve been blessed with physical therapists who all have said, “If it hurts, don’t do it.” The tight … Continue reading →
Boomer decided to standoff with the opossum. Subsequent photos show Boomer decided to wait and come back after the opossum had left. But Boomer made sure he marked the food tower with his scent.

I haven’t done much this month, but Mr. L has been busy. San Antonio House: Mr. L got down there earlier this month and got the lawn mowed. The Ranch: Nothing planned for this month. The Store: Yes, the grass needs mowing. The Shop: Mr. L is making tremendous progress … Continue reading →

I have no idea if it’s because of Natasha’s demise or other household disruptions (me being gone to the hospital for a couple of days and returning to take up residence in the dining room), but the indoor cats seem to be in some state of upheaval. It’s hard to … Continue reading →
Another A-Z Challenge is in the can, and it’s time to reflect upon the process. I love the challenge. My theme was very well-received this year, and I thank the many repeat visitors who commented throughout the month. (Did I promise you anything for doing that, or did you come … Continue reading →
Natasha has always been my special kitty. The photo above was an early photo after she settled into the house when it was just her, me, and Hershey (she ignored Hershey, and Hershey, wisely, paid her no mind) in Alabama. I found her on Petfinder in 2005. She’d been in … Continue reading →
