Wow, it's warmer there in NY than it is in East TN this morning. About 42F here right now; but not a cloud in the sky. And the high is only going to be about 65, but it's supposed to climb back to the mid-70s for a high by Saturday.

Warmer here at the moment, but our forecasted high for today is 49F, so essentially, the rest of the day is going to be like this.

Yup. Couch. Blanket. Boyfriend. Movie. Hot chocolate.

Found a bunch of junk at the local surplus store yesterday. It was awesome.

What kind of junk?

Good morning, Strad...

So what do our days look like today?

I have about 24 large posters (22" x 28" inches) to get done at work today. Hoping to get a little time at lunch to make final selections on these pictures I'm working on.
Tonight, I'm planning to work on some photos and get my Sunday school lesson finished...because I'm going to the TN v. Bama game this weekend, which is gonna mean a late night on Saturday!
Go Vols!! Don't lose by too much!! LOL

Oh, and I'll likely also be watching football tonight. Denver vs. SD; Denver is my only pro team that is doing any good this season.

and kitties

If we're at my house, then there will definitely be kitties. Zelda is the most likely to come and snuggle. If we're at his, then kitties will be around (he's got two) but neither of them are really snugglers so they won't come up on the couch. Not for more than a minute or so.

Time for cup #2.

And toast. Cinnamon toast. The home baked cinnamon rolls will be made later.

Looks much like the best cat I ever had. His name was Jaspar; he was a dog disguised as a cat. He lived to be about 24 years old, and even then was in quite good health. He even still went out and hunted, which was his demise. He'd gone about half-deaf, and so he must have been resting out in the yard and didn't hear a dog come up on him. It attacked him. He survived for a few days, but the injuries basically were just too much of a strain on his heart. I had the best vet in the world at the time. He actually took Jaspar home with him in the evenings so he could monitor him through the night.

I'll try to find a picture of him to post. Not sure if I have any scanned.

Alright, I'd better head to work while there's still enough caffeine in my system to tackle those posters!

Back in just a bit!

My headache is still three, but it's muted this morning. Yesterday before class, I had a cup of coffee, one aspirin, and one Tylenol, which pretty much replicates the ingredients of Excedrin (caffeine, aspirin, acetaminophen).

I'm not sure if that was what helped, but by the time I finished class, the headache was much better and I hadn't even really noticed it for most of the time.

I say that maybe it was the medicine because I've had headaches before that sort of went away while I was teaching even when I didn't take anything. I knew it would come back, but at least I had a respite for a couple of hours.

Later Sharon!

Awwww, poor kitty. But at least he lived long enough so that his last moments were more peaceful than being attacked by a dog
