A friend is coming over to pick up potted plants I don’t want to die after I leave for Louisville next week.

What are you doing about the plants you do want to die?

There are a few plants that should survive, like the pineapples and the rosemary. Most everything else is in the ground.

Watching Cimarron. Why, I don't really know. It's not that good, but Irene Dunne is game.

I've had a lovely bath, and it was made more enjoyable by the fact that Annabelle actually ate her salmon for dinner. Half the time these days she refuses to eat the Fancy Feast I put out at 3:00 for dinner, and Thatch and Stella eat her share. As a consequence I overcompensate at treat time throwing every dry food in my arsenal at her.

As I was drawing my bath water I could see her bent over a dish. It made my day.

Done. I gave you three choices. Use whichever works best.

Since my visit today involved blood work, I fasted from last night at about 7:00pm to this afternoon about 3:00pm. I was a little hungry, too!

Last night we went out to eat, the first time since Jan 2020.

We went to a jernt that specializes in Walleye (Pike), and that's what we had. Delicious. Here in MN, they're fished out (catch and release only), so I believe the restaurant sources product in Canada.

There were two houses damaged by fireworks in the county next to mine.

And the goalie for an NHL team the Columbus (Ohio) Blue Jackets was killed by an errant fireworks mortar......

There was also an ambulance & fire truck in my neighborhood - but I do not know the circumstances.   It may have been another attempted murder by the house cats - they are becoming more common, I hear.

Oh, my goodness!  Los Angeles fireworks explosion: Man had 16 tons of fireworks at home, including devices that later blew up and injured 17!

:o

They did everything right and it still exploded :(    I hope the people who stockpiled the fireworks get jail time.

I hope they put this moron away for a very long time.

At least he lost all the money he invested in purchasing the fireworks.  It is a beginning.

Went to a dinner party last night with a group of friends. There were no fireworks in the area. I wonder if there was a ban against them

If so it is amazing people were being careful.

The Costco here has also just added self check outs.  I always thought that they should do an 8 and less cash like they do at grocery stories. Although most people seem to buy full carts.

Our Costco also has self checkout.  So far we haven't used it.

I can't even believe that some states let people set off their own fireworks. Or that anybody would want to do that.

The biggest shock is that anyone would want to do that when they live in a high fire area.

Monday afternoon greetings!  After our TCM movie date on Saturday we had a nice steak and baked potato dinner. 

About 9:30 I went to sit on the front porch, hoping to see some of the fireworks show from Smith Park.  There was a commotion two houses to the east that involved a dad yelling profanities, the kids crying, and a dog going berserk.  The dog was running wild and each time they thought he was calming down another nearby firework got him all riled up again.  He eventually headed in my direction and my childhood terror of dogs surfaced.  When he was at the edge of our porch I bolted for the door and kind of fell into our house.  I was not injured, but have felt a little achy since.

We did go back outside and saw skydivers deliver fireworks and flares to the park.

The poor dog and children.

The death of the young man is a sad shame.

On the Facebook page of a rescue group, Peace and Paws, that I follow they shared this today.

“I don’t want a dog that drools.”
An actual comment on an application for Callie, so I sent this picture for reference.
Callie not only drools when she plays and gets excited, she likes to cover herself in it.
Full disclosure of course.
I’m not sure why they didn’t email us back 😬😉
