Live-skeeting my mental decline.
Feelings of impending doom this evening. Triggered, I think, by the call from Adult Social Care earlier today.
Hate this.

I let AM in for some grub, and leave him to it in the living room.
I come back and he’s finished it, and trying to have it away on his toes with a full pouch. 😹
More fool him, he should have learned to read, it’s lamb in gravy which he doesn’t like.

In 2010, Randy Guijarro purchased an old photo for $2 that was later authenticated as an extremely rare 1878 photograph of the notorious Wild West outlaw Billy the Kid and members of his gang, the Regulators, playing croquet. The photograph was eventually valued at $5 million.

even if your family is terrible there are better ways to get out of hosting thanksgiving than burning down your house
There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

Breakfast omelette planned for the morning. Looking forward to it and wishing the hours past.
Shall I have it with toast or fries?
I seem to have channeled my inner Labrador, living from one meal to the next. Woof!

Really feel like something monster salty this evening, I don’t really have anything except a tin of anchovies, and don’t feel like dealing with oil dripping all over the place.
I’ll see if I have a jar of olives somewhere.

Both AM and Milo visited today. They seem cool together, both amazingly solid chaps with thick coats, makes them look like absolute beasts! Both have lovely temperaments though.
This unlike Kitten who was also massive, although more rangy. Totally not friendly to people/cats outside his small band.

Made it ok to the laundry room. Good stiff breeze, but sunny and not really cold.
Continuing with the Dick Francis dramatisations, “Proof” today, Nigel Havers as the protagonist.

One of my pills bounced of a bloody tooth and fell to the floor, lost seemingly forever.
Not much idea of which one, although by the feel as it struck my knee and its vanishing capability, I guess my Beta blocker. I better not take another one though.

Not many kitties today. Only saw Milo and Max. Goes like that over the weekend. Wet out there too.
That’s okay, if they aren’t here, then they must be comfortable elsewhere.
Hip is bloody sore, even after 600mg ibuprofen and 100mg Tramadol.
I may have to give laundry a miss tomorrow.

Someone talked about hot chokky here this morning. So here we go, no booze and it’s a sugar free version, but quite palatable. 😊😋

Chat GPT tells me this is a wagtail. Either Pied or White variety. He’s been turning up with a wood pigeon recently, but at other times of the year I see a whole flotilla of them at a time. I wonder why this lone one? Hope he manages it through winter.
