Retired cat lady, not childless. In these dark times I'm trying to post something beautiful because we deserve that, including a daily cat photo. One day at a time.

Today was the first day of winter and the day the days start slowly getting longer. There was a question of a liberated Christmas ornament. The Agents of Chaos tried to tell me it jumped off the tree. One day at at time. #catsofbluesky #Winter

A blessed Solstice to all. Tomorrow will be a longer day. It's been raining all day, but we need every drop. There's a bird's nest in the neighbor's tree. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #solstice

Four more days until Solstice. We got a little mist this morning, then the sun came out for awhile. I'm ready for Christmas and for the days to get longer. . There's more coming on Friday, through the weekend and into next week. It will be welcome. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #Winter

Five more days until Solstice. Rain's coming, finally. I went for a walk today. The trees have been turning. Now we'll have wet leaves. Niamh is curled up tight against the cold. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #autumncolor

Seven more days until Solstice. It got down to 37 last night, but it looks like we have rain coming, so it might warm up a little. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky. #fungi #mushrooms

Seven more days until Solstice. Happy Chanukah to all who celebrate it. We could all use a little more light on many planes about now. The backyard birders are busy and some interesting fungi are popping up in the garden. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #backyardbirds #happychanukah

Happy Caturday.
Eight days until Solstice. I may have gotten my count messed up, but its been a rough week. The tree is done. I had some help from the Agents of Chaos, especially Fergus, who kept stealing ornaments as fast as I could put them on. One day at a time.

The countdown to Solstice: 11 days to go, then the days will get longer. It continues to be cold, with tule fog followed by a little sun. The cat for the day: Niamh. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #blueeyedcats #winter

Twelve days until the Solstice. The sun came out for awhile. I went for a walk in the evening. The tree's almost done.

The Winter Solstice is 13 days away. We can hope for longer days. It continues to be cold and raw, but the first Narcissus showed up in the garden.
Siobhan continues to cling to her beauty sleep, curled up in a tight ball to conserve heat. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky

It continues to be oppressive grey outside and the AQI isn't great. It's just winter. Minnie is still elegant. One day at a time.

After a good piano lesson, I did a round of clutter abatement. It had been getting so bad that I wanted to scream. It's better, but not perfect. At least I can find my keys for a few days. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky #clutterabatement

It was warm enough for a little hike today I wasn't planning on going up on the ridge, but somehow I ended up there. Then the sky had gone went pink, with an almost full moon.

It's gotten consistently cold. Some of the trees are turning, but the big ones that make a big mess are still mostly green. not much of interest happened, at least not at home, today.

I found this photo of baby Siobhan. The kittens had escaped; I found this tiny monster in the middle of my bed. I think it's still her favorite place. One day at a time. #catsofbluesky

We had a good standout last night. Our numbers were a little reduced, but we were as enthusiastic as usual.
