This popped up in a Facebook friend's feed today. It states what we have observed with the cruel, unwelcoming behaviors of the MAGA crowd and the US administration.

I am going to miss adding to the much needed #Caturday posts. We said farewell to our 20 year old Cat this week. I held her in my arms to the end.

I'm not crying. You're crying.

It was a good Saturday lunch visit at Aquatopia, just outside Ottawa. I enjoyed the calming greenery, #RotaryClub fellowship and conversations... Except for the waterfalls... their ambient sound became disruptive at times. I would love to visit again. I needed this after a challenging week.

Frosty tree branches and starlings enhanced my sombre errands run today. It was beautiful and refreshing. I got my recent vaccination and groceries. For the first time in years, i didn't have to shop for pet food.

Sunday was good, coming out from a rough stretch for the old girl. We are cherishing the final few days with her.

Wednesday morning she seemed to converse with her shadow while at the breakfast buffet. She has become a shadow of her original self.

After one has been out and about, foraging in the intermittent snow, it's so nice to return to one's creature comforts. #Soup #Books #Cozy

So to close the loop on this, I completed the recipe twice during weekend #cooking sessions. Got down to the smaller plum / Roma tomatoes. Tedious! I am proud of my stick-to-it-ness and glad I got to share with visitors. Thanks to Crystal and All #recipes www.allrecipes.com/recipe/23312...

Snowy Monday report: She's still holding court, even allowed the water boiler service guy through.

It was a touch and go #Caturday with the old girl. She slept all day Friday, barely ate. This morning I had to lead her to her water bowl, and serve three different wet foods until she finally agreed. Family meeting tomorrow to discuss eventual plans for this 20 year old Cat. #Pets #Love #Care

I tried a new recipe : Fried green tomatoes. Success!

In the morning brightness of the DayLight lamp, the Cat took over my corner office desk for an elevated perspective of her usual observational spot. It's #TabbyTuesday, Cat's laundry day, #Rotary club meeting day, and Federal #Budget day. I will regulate my energies accordingly. #patience #kindness

Dodgers won. That was excruciating to watch! They all gave their best.

On the edge of our seats watching the world series this #Caturday. Let's go Bluejays.

It has been a busy, rainy afternoon of testing different methods to ripen green tomatoes.

I exclaimed to another eager patron rushing into the Holds section today, "It feels like Christmas!"

"How to be a Saint" by Kate Sidley. Forward by Stephen Colbert. It's funny and irreverent. Pictures too. 📚🤓

During my Saturday morning walkabout and errands, I stopped to admire a gorgeous display of nature. 🌳🍂🍁💋

I think that I shall never see
A poem as lovely as a tree.
A tree that may in autumn wear
Tints and hilites in her hair.

Apologies to J Kilmer

Our Lady of Random Puddles was on my bed at 6:30, demanding the #Caturday breakfast service. Now digesting ample portions while staring me down, she calculates how soon she should demand second breakfast.

I welcome these distractions of whimsy in today's news cycle.

Nice. I got outside this morning for walkies and errands. I enjoy autumn. Did you notice a plethora of ladybugs today?

The old Tabby Cat acknowledges #Caturday wishes on this soggy Saturday morning in #Ottawa. This may be our last #Thanksgiving together due to her waning health and lazy bathroom habits. She's a hot, furry mess but we love her.

A persistent, destructive grey squirrel ripped a hole in the tarp I covered our Vegepod with, preparing it for winter. I don't know if he was looking for a new home but I don't want his family living rent-free in my garden. I love and respect nature but this is testing my patience too much! 🐿️🍁🙄

Full Moon tonight. This explains my energetic laundry marathon, vacuuming, rage cleaning the kitchen and the cat's bathroom puddles (anywhere she chooses). I live with an experimental, messy cook and a stubborn, forgetful old lady. Also, it's too damn warm for October. 29 Celsius. Ugh 🌕🌞🐈🧑‍🍳🤗❤️

While sipping my Monday morning coffee and checking online activities, I could hear a crunching sound from the porch. A grey squirrel was ravaging my potted Mums, the little bastard.

You wonder what the Cat is dreaming about, holding down the tip of her tail. Afternoon naps are so underrated. #Cats #Pets #Naps
