Or could be, he's unsettled for some reason. Dogs can hear things we can't. Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and Belgian waffles with strawberries and whipped cream* Bright and sunny. I need to do laundry, and to get a bunch of origami strung today. Toppage, page 827! Edited October 9, 2022 by Lagie Toppage! Share this post Link to post

Posted October 9, 2022 Enjoy! That sounds fun! I'm stringing cranes, picking out beads for bracelets, and reading. Not all at the same time, of course. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 9, 2022 He eventaully settled down and left us a gift in one of the rooms this morning, since he didn't bother waking bestie and I up. *sigh* Dogs are wild man. Now we're back home and comfy with the cats! No more dogs to walk! ^^ Share this post Link to post

Posted October 9, 2022 @Lagie It was delightful and so good to see our friend again (We haven't seen him in person since 2020!) The weather wasn't terrible, and our kids had fun together. Plus they have 6 cats and I got to love them all! They are all named after Marvel characters so we have: Vers, Drax, Gamorra, Fury, Korg, and Pepper. Vers is like a year and some change and the youngest, Pepper, is 4 months. They are all so cute! @AsymDoll13 oof sorry the pupper was being a brat and yay for being home! We just got in ourselves. I need to clean the rat cage and shower but I'll do it in a bit. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 10, 2022 not sure not much of this i've posted here, but i had a busy day and i feel quite accomplished. so back when we put our house on the market about a thousand years ago (okay, it was only July ) we got a storage locker and i just boxed up stuff to get it off the shelves and out of dressers and closest (mainly my daughters’ stuff for the dressers and closets), and they ended up all over the place. and book boxes are heavy! anyway, we took all those boxes over to a storage locker. last month all those boxes came home, and we moved them into a POD. and i started to rebox them, or tape up the boxes much more securely than they were. and today i finished with the boxes in the POD. there are still some boxes in the shed, but not nearly as many. I’ll probably bring the boxes from the shed into the POD. hubby and i also went over to Lowe's to get a few detectors - smoke and carbon monoxide. turns out, they make 'em two in one, so instead of getting 4 detectors, we just got 2! there's a form that went with the U&O on the township website that has a few more requirements - smoke detectors in all the bedrooms and hallways in the vicinity of the bedrooms; CO detectors in the hallways in the vicinity of the bedrooms; and house numbers bigger than 4 inches that are visible from the street. we have house numbers already on the house, but they're hiding. so we got different, stick-on numbers that are 5 inches tall and reflective, and those are visible from the street now. figured we'd get that taken care of before someone asks about it so we can say YEP. and now i'm tired.

Posted October 10, 2022 House number sizes? Good grief. We had rain after dark but it has stopped already. The house I just stayed at was in Friday's paper! From the right... patio, large window, indent, two windows. Those two are the bedroom I slept in (when the dogs didn't have me up!) and the bathroom. Share this post Link to post

Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and butter tarts* Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Happy (Bahamas) National Heroes' Day! Formerly known as Discovery Day, formerly known as Columbus Day. Bright and sunny. I now need to box the crane strings I strung yesterday so I can string some more. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 10, 2022 All of that and, to those in the States, Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day! Just came from walking with one of my friends. (One of the others is babysitting her grandsons today and the other is in New York for her daughter's wedding). We had a delightful cool, sunny morning and the trail borders an equestrian center's fields, so we saw lots of beautiful horses! Share this post Link to post

Nice! 1 hour ago, trystan said: happy whatever! I gave up on origami stringing when the beading thread kept slipping out of the needle. I've been making pompoms for mice, and prep-folding the next batch of cranes. Share this post Link to post
