Soaking up the April rays ☀️

We made it to Morristown, delivered Raven's packages to him, and I'll be doggone if the last package didn't make it until late this afternoon.
As Cowboy says, eventually Raven will have to come down to get his car, so he can just get that package then.
It's really nothing super important.

“Cats are jerks”

Badger insisted Smudge was in my room when I went to bed. 
I looked under the bed, behind everything, and in the closet, no cat. 
So I went on to sleep, Cowboy woke me up after midnight when he came to bed. 
I got up and looked in Badger’s room, no cat curled up with her.
 I quietly checked her closet, no cat. 
Ok, well maybe she went to the laundry room and we just didn’t notice. 
I went back to sleep.

Always better to take down a weakened tree on your terms... rather than a storm deciding when it's time to come down

This was one heck of a long day. 
I don’t know how it even happened, but Raven figured out his car absolutely wasn’t fixed. 
Cowboy skipped church, and the part he needed was easier to find, so they headed to Jefferson City and picked it up. 
They worked on that car all day, and it’s still not fixed. 
Cowboy is stumped, and when he is stumped, you know it’s bad.

Weekends: Family Edition

The noise began well before 7 am. 
I woke up, turned on the air purifier and my fan, both loud enough to drown it out, and went back to bed. 
It's nearly always Drei who wakes up before the chickens, and he's the one you really don't want roaming without supervision.

Change may be just around the corner

I was up early finishing up the last-minute things one always has to do.
I spent the day folding and putting away laundry.
Note to self: just because you're not naked doesn't mean you should do your laundry regularly.
Boy, that was a lot of work.

I run on caffeine and pure exhaustion.

It was good that we took yesterday as a movie and rest day.
Today was not a rest day.

We got to the store and got our groceries in.
We came home and ate dinner.
