I had quite a temper when  I was younger.  I’m much more tolerant now

Thursday morning greetings!  The work continues on our basement.  They’re supposed to finish tomorrow, but Richard and I have our doubts.

So, I emailed the company that the basement people recommended for replacing our front porch.  Elizabeth’s response was:

“We’re complexly booked until November 2022.”

I’m sure she meant “completely,” but her version has great potential…

I had a 90-minute lie down with Stella, and I am feeling much better. The Tizanidine I take whenever I step out for appointments makes me very drowsy.

Kathryn from the box office says that we are refunding about 35 tickets a day....  And there a few out of county folks who show up to see the show - but they are most understanding when they find out that it's canceled.

The MN Governor today has announced that all state agency workers working outside the home will be required to show proof of vaccination to retain employment.

Good, I say, and about time.

And why are people protesting that?

Even more baffling is why people protest that they have to wear a mask to enter a hospital.

Especially with hospital workers.  If I am very ill from Co-vid, and have to go the hospital, I certainly want to know that the staff is vaccinated!

True.  And if I have to go into the hospital for something else I want to reduce my chances of the staff giving me covid.

Ann and Jen have mice on the fifth floor, but I thought mice would smell the cats and stay out.

Three cats and three dogs did not stop the mice from crossing the room during the day.

This was during our mouse invasion in Pennsylvania.

I get mad a lot at uncaring, unthinking, selfish people, but I never express it or act on it. Like I said yesterday, these days at the slightest provocation people are likely to pull out a gun and shoot you.

Now we have gun owners suing the State Fair here in MN to be able to bring guns into the fair.  High density, alcohol, and hot temperatures. A recipe for disaster. You won't find me anywhere near there if they win their lawsuit.

We have tickets for the immersive Van Gogh exhibit in Minneapolis in late September. I wonder if it will still even happen.

I don't mind irritation, but I do have a tipping and/or boiling point and I am, I'm afraid, very bad when that happens. I try not to be, would LIKE not to be, but yesterday was just too much, but the result of it wasn't worth it and was dangerous, so at my age I really need to just, as Liza said, shine it on.

When I got out of bed, the cats were batting something around the floor. I thought it was a toy at first, but it was a dead baby mouse. There hasn't been a mouse in this apartment since they came in with my new fridge and stove in 2012, and it took a lot of time to get rid of them.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

The cat tree has become Thatch's new hangout. Whenever I can't find him, he's usually sleeping inside this little hut these days.



Great picture, Larry!
