We have a large beautiful Black Widow spider that has taken up residence in a potted cactus by our front door. She will keep bad spiders and scorpions away. Its a good thing!
Spending money on toys for a cat..dont. a scrunched up ball of paper works.
We bought fresh catnip mice at the Cat Show. What a waste of $4,75 each. Max just drooled all over his until it was a soggy mess and Toshie gave hers a sniff and walked away.
National Nut Day. No, it isn’t about your nutty neighbor (or any human type nut). This is about cashews, walnuts, and other nuts – the kind of nuts you eat.
Thanks everyone for suggestions on what made my TV go haywire on Tuesday. I’m not sure the remote is the culprit though because I also tried another remote – a universal remote which is programmed to that TV and it didn’t work either. But I just discovered tonight that there are some teeny tiny buttons on the back side of the TV (sort of on the side, but hidden towards the back) which I never saw before. I’m going to try those buttons and I will still try replacing the batteries in the remote too. Funny though how suddenly this problem came about – one minute it was fine and the next minute it was haywire. Weird!
My cats like the toys that make the crinkly sound. Have a bunch & they do play with them. Years ago I got a scratcher that was round with a ball in the track around it. They love that.
Following up my post yesterday about my sister’s two cats. They went to my brother who is a Catholic Priest in West Virginia. Within months he realized that he wasn’t a cat person and he found good homes for them among his parishioners. You talk about having a lot of Facebook friends! Father Paul must have thousands. Every 6 years they make the priests move to a new parish in WV. So he’s been all over the state making friends.
Maybe my TV was playing an early Halloween prank on Tuesday? I just plugged it back in and hooked it up and I didn’t even touch the remote but the TV came on and it is working fine. Just to be safe, I replaced the batteries in the remote anyway. I don’t want to risk having the TV go haywire again on Saturday when the Decades channel starts their Jack Benny marathon (70 episodes in a row). My favorite episodes involve Jack at home, visiting his vault or out Christmas shopping and the one where it was 4:00 in the morning and Jack couldn’t sleep. I like those episodes much more than the stage shows where he has singers and they do sketches. I love Rochester too.
I just tripped on the rug on the front porch, fell into the wood pile and punched 2 holes in my arm. I hate rugs…but they are necessary for my brain and spine damaged Brittany who falls so easily without good traction. I usually take great care walking everywhere around here because of the rugs, but I guess I was just tired and not paying attention. I washed the wounds, applied triple antibiotic and 2 Band-Aids and pronounced myself ok.

Today is:
National Nut Day. No, it isn’t about your nutty neighbor (or any human type nut). This is about cashews, walnuts, and other nuts – the kind of nuts you eat.

Does everyone but me spell “pajamas” like that?….. or is it the smart ones?… or maybe the Canadians? Crossword puzzlers everywhere “Beware”!
mistercatworks over 3 years ago
Have you tried “The Paper Bag with Corner Cut-out”, “The Ball Made from Bread Ties” or “The Toe Under the Blanket”?

I bet she would rather have a big bowl of tuna. On another note, saw two rabbits and a junco while out walking today.
