Servant4Christ Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Dishes done, laundry folded, floors swept, schoolwork half done so we're on a snack break playing tangrams while Newbie takes his late morning nap. Contemplating next year's curriculum since Oldest threw a monkey wrench in my plans and read ALL The. Books for reading and keeps jumping ahead and reading extra lessons in history. So much for it lasting 2 school years. 🙄 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm finally buying the stupid Roomba I always claim I'm going to buy, it will be short haired and I will probably bathe it once a month. I'm talking about the cat now, not the Roomba. We used to have two cats and I bathed them monthly and it worked. 43 minutes ago, Servant4Christ said: I have never heard of this. https://unboundwellness.com/sweet-potato-chicken-poppers-paleo-aip-whole-30/ https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/9456/sauerkraut-salad/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Servant4Christ Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the recipe, Slachie! You're very creative in the kitchen! Pre-allergies, we used to have a cat (gray tabby) until she passed of old age. Got her as a wild kitten. She was entertaining and a true blessing. She was the best pet ever for Oldest when he was a baby. We were concerned how she would react when we brought him home from the hospital, but she thought she was his mommy and became his best friend. We had a harness for her and used to walk her the same as others walk their dog. She had her routine and scratched specific trees on her rounds. She liked catching live critters and bringing them to us until I screamed my head off once and scared a couple lives out of her. In my defense, she brought me a live mouse (to my bedroom!) first thing in the morning before I was fully awake. She also LOVED watching the big kitties (tigers, lions, ect) on TV. She'd attack the TV like a real tough kitty. 🤣 Edited February 25, 2021 by Servant4Christ 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I was not designed to do the splits in mud. But I still managed to get twenty minutes of muddy weeding in today before the short sun break (really a cloud break) is over.

Dd and I are back to doing yoga now that she's over covid. We ALMOST had weather good enough to start walking again today. It was just a little bit too cold to be out that long. But we can tell it's coming and I'm so happy.

Another Lynn Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) Happy Friday. Coffee's half way gone. This site is slow to load - I wonder if it has way-laid Krissi again. Yay for so many points and trophies. Slache, I was confused because I thought the quote made it look like the title of your thread was your name. And I wondered if you changed it. Need more coffee. I forget what you were asking, but I think you had 23 replies, so you either know everything now or else people lined up to smack you (movie reference - Airplane - which you are too young to get).

Absolutely would not if there were any people within sight. One time he even stayed down when I took a step away. I am trying to convince dh to work with him on this when he takes walks as well. I might go get my hairs cut today. Also I need to pack my backpack with things to go on a 5 mile practice hike tomorrow morning. The 3 youngest are having Scout classes tonight.
