I don’t have any excuses, other than it’s 2020. I’ve been a bit overwhelmed at work. I’m playing Paperwork Person, Zoom Scheduler, Blog Setter-Upper, Anecdotal Note Enterer, Phone Answerer and occasionally, Teacher. Needless to say, I’ve been exhausted. Regardless, I love the babies in my class and I have a lot of fun watching them…
Today is the 10th anniversary of Gidgette’s Gotcha Day. She’s the love of my life. Right now, she snuggled up next to me washing her face like the good little kitty she is.
My one pot of lettuce was overflowing, so I decided to pull it today. I wish I had taken a picture before I harvested it. It filled an entire colander. I had planned on making a salad plus some wilted lettuce. However, by the time I had cleaned it, there wasn’t much left. Plus it…
Today is International Hug Your Cat Day! I actually got to give Ivory a hug today. She almost never lets me pick her up. Of course, she demanded treats for tolerating me. Gidgette cuddled with me this morning while I was doing the rounds of the interwebs. I didn’t see the kousins today. I will…

Gidgette is weird. I caught her sleeping under the pillow. She was nothing but ears and a tail.
My favorite color is purple. I have my own psychological/color theory why this is. But that’s neither here nor there. Flowers are a bloomin’. I found some incredible purple wildflowers in the park. If anyone knows what they are, leave me a comment. These are a tree. I think they’re pretty common flowering trees. We…
I’m at the Bedford Reservation of the Cleveland MetroParks right now. I’m actually just across from Tinker’s Creek Gorge Overlook. I just had to stop and post pictures of this tree I just stumbled across. Somebody hung two Christmas ornaments on a scrawny little pine tree. It’s Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tree. It really cheered me…
Really Old Man Winter? You just won’t go away. Record cold is hitting North America. It snowed in Cleveland, though not as bad as other places like the northeast. Frost possible in the southeast. I even learned a new weather term, graupel. Today’s forecast high in Cleveland is 48. Average high for today is 68. …
