Andy, Ben, and I had a boys' day out! We saw the city's holiday parade and had lunch at Primanti's afterwards. Andy was a real trooper, walking round-trip about 2.2 miles and sharing parade-thrown candy with other kids around us who hadn't gotten to pick up as much!

What do history geeks like @amycolleen.bsky.social and I use for room lighting while watching the new Netflix show about James Garfield? And old-fashioned oil lamp, of course!

Andy was my big helper taking Jane to the vet. He even tried to comfort her in the car by singing "Old McDonald." 💖
As soon as Dr Kevin came in the room and saw Andy's shirt, he asked if Andy had ever heard of the TV show "Dinosaur Train." I was like, "Buddy, Dr Kevin knows your favorite show!" 🤣

I have an insatiably curious cat who won't stop pulling out & playing with the basement floor drain lid, even knocking off anything we put over it. So I preheated it with a heat gun and hot glued it in place. As Red Green says, "If the women don't find you handsome, they'll at least find you handy!"

My little boy is getting so big! I took him to the Carnegie Natural History Museum in Pittsburgh this past weekend, because he LOVES dinosaurs & that museum is world-class. We had the best day together.

This episode of 'Bluey' is called, "Flatpack!"
The cat, uh, "supervised" from the comfort of Andy's mattress while I assembled the upper half and ladder. 🤣🐈⬛

Hanging out at the local rodeo with the kids and my mom. Andy in particular is excited. Both of them are signed up for the kids' stick-horse race at halftime, too!

Had a really nice beach trip with @amycolleen.bsky.social and the kids.
Our cat, for her part, is overjoyed that we have come back home again. 🐈⬛

Sun Drop sold in North Carolina is better than that which is sold nationally. And that is a hill on which I'd die.

Our church is decorated for VBS in a Wild West theme, but they got my "Wanted" poster wrong: I don't have a beard nor mustache! 😜

Took Andy and Ben down to Gettysburg this morning to see my reenacting group's encampment. I really like this picture because my mom sewed this flag for the group 20+ years ago. Andy said, "I didn't know Grammy could make flags!"
