This guy is in the backyard, and since this house has so many windows, I have seen him peripherally frequently. I am used to it now, but for the first day and a half I had many moments of thinking he was real. It is nice having him keep watch out there.
The turkeys have collected outside the office sliders. I went out to put bird seed, and they took off but have not returned. I guess they wanted something else!
Squirt and LingLing are doing well. They have a good life. Access to the deck, three square meals a day, many places to relax, more cat toys than I’ve seen in a pet store, and come in contact with humans when they choose. LingLing is deaf, so I’ve learned to retrieve her when she calls. It’s her where the heck is everyone call.
While doing the dishes this morning, I was greeted by a fantastic sunrise. I went to a coffee shop in town and met that Irish dude who was hanging outside. He didn’t say much. Oh, and the coffee shop is also a chocolate shop with a variety that rivals Ghirardelli and Guittard. I visited with Shawn from Flower Bar Co., who used to be a Florabundance customer and a friend of Joost’s. We set a meeting time of 11 a.m. through messaging early in the today. She showed up at 11:23 a.m. and had a photo shoot, so she only had time for a hug and a selfie to send Joost. Moving on…
That’s the turkey in charge; it’s his flock. I told him to stay away in November; he seemed to understand. Squirt came to greet me before breakfast; he’s a good cat but suffers from kidney disease. So skinny! As I said though, he has a good life. Liz takes good care of her feline family.
