Trying to take care of medical things while home, this includes blood work, LabCorp here is usually pretty good, but today was an adventure probing for a usually easy to find vein only to have the tube vacuum fail causing her to stick me again.

LiG - I neglected to mention that Spunky was adopted by a local 3-legged cat, we call her Quincy, now daily feedings and outdoor houses w/makeshift tea light heater. The indoor cats are not happy when they hear Quincy or when she wonders by the sunroom window trying to get us to put food out.

LiG - part of the work is going to be a clean up of the panel(s) to put the new fridge circuit in. This is what it looked like before

LiG - Also this week we are starting the minor kitchen remodel, new fridge is waiting in the living room, old fridge is done trying to poison us with over temp dairy (we have been using a cooler with ice packs since the freezer still works) The new fridge will replace the office nook.

The great October Butter Hunt was a success, visited many small boutique locations and finally found it at Alō Farms, indoor growers with a tiny stand.

The last bit of business before heading home. Turns out Spunky was born in Savannah so we went looking for her birth home, thought we had found it but now not so sure, we will be back when we figure it out.

LiG - this weekend Spunky and I met some local friends at the Morrow Moon Festival. The most Asians I have seen in one place since we moved here. Good food especially the Vietnamese style joong (fresh from Houston lol)

Life in Griffin (LiG) - plenty of work around the house since we got here. Took a break to go to the Griffin Gun Show today, just a half mile from home. Small but fairly friendly with decent pricing.

There is nothing like the playoffs, ATL is all decked out with additional seating. I added a different seat so Spunky and the good luck charm could sit together

Speaking of work on the house, the Tatum Trees has started dropping the trees that the arborists (Horticultural Hippies) identifed as needing immediate attention. Spunky is sad as many were large when she grew up here

Today was a milestone day as the last empty pod was picked up an taken away. We still have lots of work on the house and a good deal of sorting at the new storage unit but at least its all climate controlled.
