How'd it go today?

Just helped a cat get unstuck from a union in my favorite tree. There were a few small suckers keeping her pinned down. Got her out.

Can you spot the stuck kitty in this picture?

This cat was crying like a lil' bitch, so I sprang into action, and the birds on the lowest limb, out of frame on the right (some Rock Doves) were laughing at her audibly!

I have a habit of yelling loudly anytime I see a cat about to pounce on a bird needlessly in my apartment complex, in an attempt to mess up their efforts at murder. Didn't have to this time. Her own cries of desperation were enough to alert the Rock Doves and they scattered as soon as I approached to help the cat.

I think senseless aviary homicide is terrible, but leaving a cat stuck is even worse.

She was ungrateful and turned tail, and ran away. Showered my hands and arms with isopropanol because you never know what a cat has touched.

Tax collector send demands for my car and the Jeep, which has been off the road since '22. Not sure what her problem is, I sent money in January or February. Now I have to try and track her down. I think her hours are 7:00 to 7:15 Wednesdays every other leap year.

Camper has occurred! Had to drive to Snowflake again, but it was totally worth it.

Nice looking truck

Hmm…I think my lift is barely tall enough. Cut small…use the beefy trailer…

I've got ants getting in my house. Dawn dish soap and wster in a plant mister takes them out in seconds. This morning I found a crew of large ants carrying away the dead ones I had left in the sink last night. A little research and I learned that they were undertaker ants assigned to clean up the dead to protect the colony. Very interesting, I just wish they would colonize somewhere else.

I get little ants in my kitchen. Not every year, just most years. Lots of rain drives them in the house, and they stay. I don't use chemicals. One year I thought I'd keep wiping them up with a damp rag, and I'd run out of ants after awhile. Thousands of ants defeated, thousands more kept coming. Never saw even a slight decline. I now live with them when they come in. Keep food they like where they can't get to it, and think happy thoughts when I see my counter moving.

Ya don't get ants in the winter. Just sayin'...
