Update: September is here, in case no one noticed, and the days have suddenly become markedly shorter. It's funny, this has been going on since June, but now it begins to show.
The wood is in, and we are now once again walking sideways to get through the shed. My mother in law always said, if she had to stack wood, she'd get a furnace instead. If I didn't, we'd have to have a shed three times larger than what we have.
The mister has put up a god-awful staging for the winter, to make cleaning off the kitchen roof safer and easier. I suggested Onduline, but he wouldn't hear of it. sigh. Men.
Colder mornings, now. Yesterday it was 40 degrees when I let the cat out, and he wasn't too pleased with it either. He stood on the porch and meowed in all directions, and then came back in.
Blogger keeps insisting, now, that We Will use the New Blogger. And I keep insisting We Will Not.
I know who's going to win, but I don't go down without a lot of screaming and clawing at the walls, nope. Now they let you in with the new one with the old one still an option, but the walls are narrowing.
Right now, let's just say Im being a grownup about this:
However...
I was not very happy about going over to the new version of Blogger, but I bit the bullet because I realized that I really did not have a choice. Like the way things are going in 2020, this is the new normal. However, I discovered that although it has a new look, I really did not have many problems navigating. Oh, there were a few problems, but they were minor. I can do this and so can you.
ReplyDeleteYour cat is a beauty.
I realize that Im behaving like a four year old confronted with brussels sprouts for the first time...I've tried mucking about in it, but Im one of those people who despise change unless I implement it. Asperger's kids are like that. Of course I can do it. I just don't want to. Unless I want to. (stamps foot. sulks.)
Deleteand yeah, it's just bigger and brighter, but every time they change things around soomething I used HERE ends up over THERE in a different spot. Very frustrating.
That bottom picture is him being a drama queen. want to come in want to come it its cold and my feet are cold meOWWWWWw--
he's also part siberian forest cat, so he's got several layers of fur and he sheds steadily, daily, but he does finally have his role as guard cat. In the winter he sits in the front window and guards us from inside. Its very comforting. =)
Light frost here this morning; 34 degrees (3 degrees warmer than the historic low for this date, set back in 1911).
ReplyDeleteWarmer is promised, starting like Thursday through the weekend. Then, after that...
38 here, I guess you got the daily low temp prize for the week...I sense we may be moving toward the full moon, so it could get chillier before it evens out.
DeleteBeen burning bark chips these mornings, to take the chill off. Shoot, we've got enough came-with-the-wood chips and bits to last us half the month. Or better. It was nice to be able to 'levitate the stove' for the first time. One of these days it will really work and then the problem will be, who's gonna help me un-levitate it without dropping it, hm?
