Small project: storage crate for wood burning tool. Has slots for the wires, and a hole in the back for the plug. Wish I had waited until I had a planer to do this one. Alas! It is functional.

Project of the day: potting bench. Still needs a drawer for catching stray soil underneath the mesh, but was a good way to reuse my old desktop + desk legs, as well as spare 1-inch mesh fence. The desktop was hollow so I had to put wood facing on it.

Was able to bring in the stray we've been feeding for weeks. He's a surprisingly polite and affectionate young man. Hoping to get him to the vet this week and fixed, and optimally on his way to a good home.

Also refinished this entire cat tree. Got it from the home of an elderly lady who passed whose cats I fostered (her daughter asked me to take it). Painted over the pressboard bits to remove smell, removed old carpet and rope, and added new. My favorite feature: leftover veneer bottoms for perches

Restored an old Craftsman scrollsaw that had some sort of bug hive in it. Luckily, all bugs found were dead. I got this scroll saw for $20 which is wild. Completely took it apart, cleaned and tuned it up. Now it works great.

This past few days have been crazy. The baby foxes in our yard had poisoning symptoms so we had to trap and bring them in to Pocono Wildlife for treatment. 2/3 made it, and the survivors were reunited with their family today.

I'm sure they mean to say they're tearing down rules justifiably but DO THEY REALIZE THEY ARE ALSO UNELECTED AND NOT A PART OF CONGRESS? And are tearing down rules that PEOPLE CONGRESS LEGISLATED THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE RULES made?

Going to get my library card today then back to the grind making cat beds! I accidentally left one on the kitchen table (on its way to the washer) and Artie climbed up there (not allowed) to give it her approval. So I think the shelter cats will like theirs.
