Old pocket Venus, married almost 50 years. Democrat, chocolate freak, British tv and writers, gardening, secret optimist, champion complainer. Leaving the bird. A dear friend’s profile, now passed, was one word. Bitter. Adding that in her honor.

Came on, as usual saw all of this, so as usual, will post something domestic, politically irrelevant, because it‘s terribly destructive to stay in one lane all of the time.

Last night, surprise visit from youngers who bought our house, sat outside, laughed, played with the baby…

Now you go….

Yes but not good. And we had unexpected visitors last night, really nice for us, made her worse.

Huge difference between cats and dogs in that way.

Thanks. She’s very unhappy but eating just enough.

This has been a sick kitty, I’m exhausted. Can only think she found some plastic to lick, or leftover tape adhesive on crates I brought in. Doesn’t take much. She’s a virulent addict, if she smells plastic she hunts it. After a 2nd long night, a little breakfast and managed outside for some sun.

Thanks Diane.

Oh, so familiar!😂I need bookcases desperately but can’t seem to work up my courage.

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 1d

Took less than 5 minutes. Done and gone.

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 1d

True courage. Respect. I do everything backwards and upside down, realize it, take it apart, start over and do it same way. Never get there until at least 3rd try. 😂

Done!👍

My lawyer just gave me permission to destroy 10 years of legal, medical and care documents. It was horrible, sickening, aging, cruel, literally caused my heart attack. Cost a fortune. My advice would be walk away. As far as he’s concerned, hope for an accident because these people live forever.

Things do change. 😊

Lots of people can live happily with cozy clutter. I’m not one of them. 😂

Because I was court appointed legal guardian for someone with diagnosed extreme narcissistic personality disorder with developing dementia I’ve lived this. They were batshit to begin with but masked it well. As filters dissipated they remained capable with assistance but openly batshit. That’s this.

That’s a lot of work! At my age it feels like giving in, most of my life is over, most of me is gone, on the other hand, making the best use of space, making everything easier to access is pleasing. We’re both adjusting to understanding that “what we’ve always done” won’t be happening here.

Often equate politicians with people from intermediate and high school. No one is an original. Warren was so that girl who slid into your business to pick your brain to use to get what she wanted. Porter is the nasty *itch who was into every group and activity to seem important but was all fake.

Good morning. 2 cups of coffee for motivation and follow thru. Spent day culling my shoe and boot collection to fit in the 2 closets. Ow! Today planning to do the walk in for clothes. Plus, measure for organization in 2nd bed. Decided not to install doors. I don’t like doors, awkward. Husband 👍 yay!

I wish I still had everything!

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 3d

Well, I do squeeze her a lot. 😂

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 3d

It’s charming. No idea what the pattern will look like on a tiny piece but it can’t be bad?

Looked far and wide, exactly what I want but they won’t ship here. EA just sent me an item with environmental warnings on the package but they sent it. Frustrated.

Nesting. October. Fall.

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 4d

Me too! We’ll see.

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 4d

Ultrasounda should be standard!

Katie and Ellie @joyfullcat.bsky.social · 4d

Neat! I do too. Took awhile to find but rule is, whether it “goes“ or not, if it doesn’t make me smile it’s a no.

Young me would freak at old me. 😂
