Mischief Monday - A Missed Meal - by Phod

Dear pals,

The most horrible thing happened last Thursday. It was a day both Man and Lady were working from home and somehow neither gave us breakfast! See Man thought Lady had and since usually during the week Man feeds us (as Lady is out 2-3 days), she assumed Man was doing it. In the end neither did!

They only realized their error at dinner when we were acting so starving. It doesn't matter that 50% of the time we don't even eat all our breakfast. It is the principle of the matter.

They have been very diligent on making sure our meals are provided at the correct time. I may eventually be able to look past this.

Nature Friday - More Autumn

 Here are some of the pictures of autumn from last week:

Tolerating The Smooshes - By Phod

 Dear pals,

I was just trying to sit on the settee for some warmth and this happened:

Movie Night with Friends

 Dear pals,

This really great thing happened a few weeks ago. Callie's kids, Dylan and his sisters M and J came over for a movie night so their parents could go out without them.  We all had a great time and the kids want to come back soon.

Watching Hocus Pocus 2

Sharing popcorn with the girls

Babysitting is hard work

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

We are thankful for many things! Here are a few:

Time we spent together

Health

Ample food

Nature

Kindness

Friends and family (especially all of you)

Unarguably a great Lady and Man

Laughter

Can we go and catch dinner now?

What would Monday be without a little Mischief!

Nature Friday - Preparing for Winter

While the peeps begin their prep (which is not going as we would like, there is a shortage of firewood, so we may not get that), our wild neighbours are getting ready too. A couple weeks ago, we shared the deer eating the apples from the yard to prepare.

The hills are starting to change colours

The birds are doing double time at Lady's feeders and she is filling them a lot!

A chickadee

One of the new preps this year is a messy one. A squirrel has been leaving the heads of our sunflowers all over the yard. He thinks he is burying them.

One of the sunflower heads, moments after Phod checked it out

He has been spotted on the windowsill pulling the heads off and having a snack before he 'buries them.' Don't worry, when we see him on the sill, we chase him!

Lady is grateful to be able to help feed the creatures in her little corner of the world. Living with nature brings her so much joy.
