Hi Potties! Glad y'all got a giggle from my Cyclops story. At the time I was less than appreciative of his efforts! I let him back out tonight & he's settled down on top of the bed - probably so he can immediately dive under it if he feels threatened. I'll put him back in the cage on Tues. since he has "calming meds" that I need to give him before we see the vet on Fri.
Max - Loved your story about Stuie & the blanket meds. Dumb animals my foot!
I have mourning doves that come to my flat feeder that I use for sunflower seeds. They're a bit too round to go to the usual hanging feeders - I use 1 of those for mixed seed & another for hulled peanuts.
I stopped at WM today to pick up a couple of things & I couldn't believe how empty the shelves were in many departments but especially the grocery section. Maybe it's nervous Nellies worried about Ida?Katie - Sales at the booth are slow right now too - I've just made enough to cover the rent so far & I'm running out of month. Can't complain - done well for several months in a row now.
We got about 3 drops of rain this evening but the weather guessers are saying to grab our water wings Tues. or Wed. since Ida may come calling. The yard is getting dry so I'll just settle in with a stack of books & say a prayer of thanks for having the generator & being on a hillside.
Tonight's NASCAR race got rained out & will run tomorrow starting at 12:30. The Atlanta United soccer game starts mid afternoon & the main NASCAR race is at 7PM. Hoping I'll get some time between one of those things to make a run over to the old house to gather up more trash & maybe see what I can find for the next trip to the booth. I haven't been over-eager to go by because we have huge "woods" spiders & I'm a massive arachniphobe. I might tear a hole in the side of the house if one ran across me when I was digging in a box of stuff. I've put out a couple of no pest strips but they haven't done any good here so I'm not too confident of their effectiveness in what amounts to an oversized storage shed. Doubt the a/c is any good after all these years & it's pretty stuffy, as well as hot these days.
Getting about time to feed the land sharks & maybe try & get to sleep a bit early so I can watch the early race tomorrow. Braves barely pulled out a win tonight & I suspect they play sometime tomorrow too.
Everybody take care & beware of bad weather in the coming days. Later.
Susan
