So. She doesn’t look particularly threatening? You just never know. Save

We’re pulling into New Orleans tonight. Based upon what you’ve heard about the cats — ferals and otherwise, what would you guess they would be doing today if they were home and lounging about the house instead of cooped up in a cage at the vet’s? The cages are essentially … Continue reading →
MGR: Online Writing Communities or Community
Welcome back to another month of the Merry Go Round Blog Tour. Our detailed discussion this month centers around on-line writing communities, or, more generically, community. I’m going to reflect a little bit on both this month. Specifically, the bulk of my on-line writing community experience has been with Forward … Continue reading →
Property Update: July
We’re having an unbelievably slow year for property progress this year. Here’s what can be attributed to the last month for the various properties: Central Texas House: Yard work with a very little decluttering.

Cats: Tell me about Yours!
Instead of boring you with the same old mundane stories this week, tell me about YOUR cats, dogs, fish, other pets, even your (shudder) kids if you wish.

It’s been quite a while since Lady has been able to roam the back yard. We don’t trust the kittens to not revert to feral status and not come back, so the big cats don’t get out like they used to. But here’s an old picture of her: Save
