Posted October 14, 2021 yep, we've got sun too! supposed to be warmer today and tomorrow though. weird weather. so on my other clickie critter site, there's a shop that pops up every now and again, selling creatures that had been retired from the site - like a holiday only creature. so... i bought one of the more expensive ones because it's really cute...and parentless! (the one i have someone bred for me) i do hope it's a female (creatures can't be influenced....) but if not, i have a gender-change potion! i just looked! woooot!! okay, i'm good.

Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Enjoy your sun, both of you! We had sun today. We also had a sunshower (rain while the sun was out), annoyingly, but not for too long, and the sun meant it dried fairly quickly once it stopped. (Quiet around here...) Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and croissants with butter and jam* Last day before our jewellery sale. We need to move a bunch of stuff around in preparation.

It's better when you like them. The new a/c makes the pricing room too cold for my taste. But my volunteers are happy campers now. (Quiet around here...) Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and bacon and eggs* Jewellery Sale today! Wish me luck. Edited October 16, 2021 by Lagie Nobody else posted ...

Posted October 16, 2021 At least I have two days off before it all starts again. *hugs, mumbles and rolls back over* Share this post Link to post
Posted October 16, 2021 @Kestra15 I hope you are getting some rest irl. And some sort of stress relief! Supposed to be sunny and warm (highs in the mid-80s F) today, until a cold front moves in this afternoon bringing rain and much cooler temps. Tomorrow is only supposed to get to mid to upper 60s.

Posted October 16, 2021 6 minutes ago, Lagie said: Jewellery sale went well! Yay! I just bought 6 Cantormaris eggs in the market. I figured that is the only way I am ever going to have enough of them on my scroll at one time to make it worth attempting to earthquake them. When the other two eggs on my scroll hatch I will leave those spaces open until afterward. So I am pretty much egg locked for the next couple of days. I hate that. If the earthquake is successful and doesn't kill everything it will be worth it, though. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 16, 2021 Good luck with that, @purplehaze! I have almost resigned myself to buying the new gemshards... Share this post Link to post

Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and Belgian waffles with strawberries and whipped cream* Do I go to work today and deal with the aftermath of the jewellery sale, or do I stay home and try to relax knowing I'll have to deal with the aftermath of the jewellery sale on Tuesday? (The person running the sale set everything up but at the end of the day made absolutely no effort to undo what had been set up, stepping away from it leaving covers on the tables and tables blocking the shed area (literally, she stepped over the side wall at the end of one of the still covered tables, the one that will get soaked if it rains) , and I was too tired yesterday after it all to do most of it myself, though I did remove the one cloth that would get wet if it rains.)

I'm guessing you will end up going in today. It really feels like fall here this morning! Of course it is the middle of October, so it should. But it is the first day we have had so far that really has. The whole week is supposed to be in the high 60s low 70s F range. Share this post Link to post

Good thing, too, as my alternate feeding person for my shop animals wasn't in today. The cleanup didn't take too long, and I was able to share in the lunch brought for the spay and neuter clinic today. Enjoy your cooler weather! It is very slightly cooler here today.

Posted October 18, 2021 i LOVE the cooler weather! :happy dance: today was a weird day - we went to the unveiling (of the gravestone) of my great-Uncle, who died back in May of 2020. i'm sure my mom told me about it, but it was only a few weeks after my dad died, so if she didn't tell me, i don't blame her. my Uncle Joe was my dad's mom's youngest brother, and when he was 50, he married Libby. their son, David, is the same age as my youngest brother, but David and my dad were first cousins. it was hard to wrap my brain around that when i was much younger. the age difference is still kinda weird. but, we saw family that we hadn't seen in a while. then, hubby and i visited with my mom for a little bit before we went out to dinner (Saladworks) for hubby's birthday today. then we go swarmed by cats, who probably demanded to know why their dinner was two hours late. and now i breed my florets. i see how this "breeding creep" works. (i just want one more male Peach Iris that's unrelated to all the girls. ) Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) @trystan I agree about the cooler weather. Looking forward to pulling out my sweaters! In other news, here is my adorable snuggle-lump. He has cuddled with me almost the whole day and it has been glorious, like having a 65 lb lap cat... Edited October 18, 2021 by BringsTheSnow Share this post Link to post

Posted October 18, 2021 Just now, Lagie said: Silly kitties! (Mine do that, too, when I'm late from work.) Very cute! I had wondered if your avatar was your dog. What's his name? His name is Harlem ❤. I love my pittie-boy! Completely converted to being a dog mom. I used to think I would only ever own cats but my fiancé convinced me to think about adopting a dog. First pup we looked at was Harlem, who was 16 weeks and 20 lbs at the time. He stole my whole heart from the moment I first met him. I still miss my kitty though. We had to put her down in 2016.

Posted October 18, 2021 Harlem's a great name. Pitties are such snugglers when they've been raised right. Sadly, a lot of people here want the rough and tough version and mistreat them to produce that. I've always had dogs so it's weird for me to now be a 'crazy cat lady'. I have three that live full time in my back patio area and I feed up to six others each day as well. I'm allergic, so none in the house for me. 3 minutes ago, BringsTheSnow said: I still miss my kitty though. We had to put her down in 2016. *hugs* Share this post Link to post
