The two cats seem to have settled their differences. The yowls and fighting exhausted them so after eating breakfast they settled TOGETHER on one of the recliners!!
Life is much quieter.
I've been working on a bear and Bob has been doing whatevers ...including Sudoku and Xbox...
Things are better but not back to normal yet. Would love to know just what Jack got so unhappy about... though it must have had something to do with Tigger's trip to the vet.
BTW... I've never heard Jack make so much yowling noise plus attacking Tigger!
Went grocery shopping early. Price Chopper was almost empty and I was the only one at a cashier ! On the way I saw a large older John Deere tractor heading south on 7 Hwy... He was in the bike lane .. probably heading to the Blue Springs Fall Fun fest parade!
Dinner out with elder daughter...lots of talking!!
LATER. the cats seem to have settled their differences. No more yowling... no more fighting. Not totally happy but it's liveable.
Tigger, the orange cat, had a checkup today. No he did not eat any of the food with tranquilizer on it last night or this morning but the exam went well. Blood taken etc, he is a little lighter but still 13.5 lbs which the vet is happy with considering his size.
But Jsck, the striped cat, is really unhappy with Tigger. Something about Tigger does not smell right and the two of them have been howling and fighting. Jack is currently downstairs and Tigger is locked up with us in our computer room...
Wonder how long this will last...
A piece of mohair will be leaving shortly...someone wants to make a costume. Hooray!
Awoke to thunder, lightening and rain this morning... and it's cooler (thank goodness).
So it has been a good day to work on a bear.
The bear making material piled in my living room is still there. Some has been posted to my etsy shop... but has not sold. I feel somewhat unhappy. I would love to be able to give my retired bear maker friend money from some sales... but that's not happening.
Our grand daughter called on her way home from work this afternoon. She is excited about getting all the info about her college graduation this December. UMKC is going to live stream the affair ..which means no getting downtown KC, finding a parking spot and finding a place to watch from!!
Today was also laundry day... all washed, dried, folded and put away . All set for awhile...
Bob is off at the dentist . She wants to replace the caps on his front teeth. He had them broken when working under our 2000 Rover car back in the "70's. So today is temporary caps day.
So I made his blueberry crostata for him...easy easy for dessert tonight.
Missed the timer ...so it's a little dark!
After that I started work on finishing up a new bear... accessories later. Then back to photographing more fabric and posting on etsy.
Bob back... the cats were waiting at the front door! He was delighted with the crostata
Our local tv weatherman posted on Facebook that the temperature this afternoon will be terrible again today ... 95 degrees. Don't think I would want to be sitting in the stadium watching the KC Chiefs play...
I did go out earlier to the grocery store. Spent an outrageous amount on needed stuff plus stuff on sale to stockpile. Some of the new prices are unbelievable. BUT there wasn't a single stocker, bagger or cashier that didn't have nice greeting!!
So it looks like picture taking and etsy posting is ahead ... and maybe a little kindle reading? And PBS' Create? Watched a session of adult grilled cheese and creamy tomato soup yesterday. Will have to give them a try!
Going up and down the stairs to my "workroom" with Tigger ( the orange one) lying across one of the steps which are outside the door to the garage. He was waiting for Bob to come back out of the garage. Had a hard time not stepping on him .. esp. his tail!
So far the thermometer only reads 90 degrees. How much hotter will it get this afternoon??
I managed 2 more postings in my etsy shop. I've been enjoying working on a bear for my next show instead. People have been looking at my postings but no sales.
The temps reached over 94 this afternoon.,,, definitely a day to stay inside.
