I'm up, I'm up - seven hours of sleep - would have been eight if the phone hadn't shot off its big fat mouth at nine. Today I decide if I'm going to let the landline go because you can change your number a million times and these spam callers will eventually get it. Blocking is pointless because they keep spoofing other numbers.

Then they will find you on your cell phone.

Fortunately, I've RARELY gotten spam calls. And since I screen my calls and don't answer if I don't recognize the number, they don't leave messages, so I don't have to deal with that, either.

I usually screen my calls, not answering numbers I don’t recognize. Last Friday, a call (that I didn’t answer) showed up that made me wonder. If my number were 123-4567, this call was from 124-4568. Rob thinks it was coincidental, but I think it looks like some kind of scam. No message was left, of course.

They’re ALL scams. I now get spam on my cell phone in which all the calls show my prefix (770-) so that it looks like an innocent “local cell call that must be from someone I know”. Right?

Sadly, I remember when spam somehow or other didn’t go to cell phones, and then at some point ..... it did.

I've been getting spam calls on my cell phone for maybe a year or two now. Some of them use different numbers so you can't recognize them easily. Sometimes I'm tempted not to answer, but it often turns out to be something important. There's no way I'd know all the numbers of people I need to talk to about one thing or another.

I figure if it IS important (or at least legitimate), they'll leave a message. And then if they don't, too bad for them.

My neighbor Judy brought over a can of Weruva Marbella Paella for the babies to try. This seems to be the first seafood mix they've liked.

I haven't given Neve any of their seafood flavors, but she hasn't liked ANY of the Weruva flavors that I've gotten. $:-\$

I have a lot of food to give away!

As picky as cats are perhaps you could find other cat owners and trade the unopened cans. Might there be a website for this?

My niece used to volunteer at a no-kill shelter. Any cat food that her cats don't like, she'll donate to them. Sometimes, she's even just bought some food for them, just to make a donation.

Talked to Muse Margaret and explained why I thought what I'd added yesterday didn't work - out of character. I totally understood why she wanted it, but I simply think she doesn't have any of the fixed pages from part one where all this stuff was addressed. And this just wasn't the place to put it anyway. But in looking at it I realized I just needed to make a further cut - about a third of a page. I told her what that would be and it really solved her problem and so I sent the cut to the proofers.

Well, I'm off to the theater! Tonight begins the last weekend for Olympia Little Theatre's production of Communicating Doors. I think it's pretty much sold out for the rest of the run! Pretty darned cool!

Be back later!

That is great if you can see what the numbers are on your cell phone, plus some family and friends only show their phone numbers and not their names. I also have a couple of friends who keep their info hidden.

This morning I helped the church women make individual meals in bulk. Does that make sense? Mostly I washed the dishes as they dirtied them. They made about 50 meals, each individually packaged. So now when someone has surgery or a family emergency or something, we can take a couple meals out of the freezer.

That is a lot of dishes to wash.

Years ago Craig's pre-school provided food for Meals on Wheels. I would take home tv food containers and fill the different compartments with food, returning them the next morning to his school (church) and they would freeze them until delivery day.

You can always drop off food without being a regular volunteer

BK - don't know if you saw my email. Was that the right tracking number, since the USPS computer said that's en route to Florida?

I did not see your e-mail. Let me check on it.

Crazy Town......another night of single digit temps.

It looks like it will get above 50 tomorrow and we will not have rain.

It will feel like summer in Iceland.

Good evening.

Another rainy day (and night) in Tacoma.

TCB · « **Reply #108 on:** February 01, 2018, 11:23:44 PM »

Tomorrow the temperature is supposed to go up into the 50’s.

TCB · « **Reply #109 on:** February 01, 2018, 11:24:20 PM »

And it looks like it will stay in the 50’s all next week.

TCB · « **Reply #110 on:** February 01, 2018, 11:25:03 PM »

In fact, next Thursday, it is supposed to be close to 60!

My left knee has been really hurting me the last few days.

That is one of the only parts of that leg that has full feeling.

So, I took two pain pills at six. It heped the pain, but I napped thru most of the evening.

Tomorrow I don’t have anything on the schedule.

So, I guess I will start to clean the house and work on the large pile of shredding that I need to do.
