What went before: So, sewing group was fun, though perhaps a little short. I got to meet Carty McFly, a utility cart complete with wheels and enormous googly eyes. The official start time is 5:30 and the library closes at 7, so clean up was happening 6:30ish. However! We had a good group, especially for a first time. Two crocheters, two knitters, one quilter, and yours truly on the needle and hoop.
The cats were trying to get the Northeast Committee Cat on the phone when I got home, but technically Happy Hour was not late. In point of Actual Fact, it was Exactly on Time.
Still raining. And cold. Too cold.
Everybody stay safe; I’ll see you tomorrow.

Wednesday. Raining. In case anybody cares, I’m really tired of rain. And? I accept no responsibility; the weather gods are NOT jealous of my lovely new sun chair.
Breakfast was cottage cheese and toast. Waiting for my second cup of tea to brew. Lunch — I bought some chicken tenders which need to be baked and then parceled out into the freezer, so I’m guessing chicken and veggie will do.
I? Am a Very Tired Woman.
I have a Generated Letter from Maximus, which is charged by the Federal Government to make sure that Medicare is Following The Rules. Maximus makes it Very Clear that they are only interested in The Rules. Which means they’re ignoring the substance of my appeal, as Martin’s Point before them. So, I’ll be calling the state insurance bureau today and see about getting an advocate. If there is no advocate, then I guess it’s the papers.
<grumble>Just what I wanted to be doing with my time</grumble>
The gentleman I spoke to about painting my garage is supposed to stop by today and stare at the project under discussion.
I need to renew my library card, which if I’d known, I coulda done that yesterday.
There are three cats sleeping in my office, and one cat on the back of the couch, attempting to influence the flow of random event.
And that’s what’s happening here.
What’s happening there?
Smoke? Does this apply across the cat spectrum? That is, my “black” cat is not a coon, but can I say he is “smoke” if we see the black hairs are underlaid with a (I guess it’s gray) undercoat? I didn’t know that term, and my new veterinary team did not mention it when they met him.
Um. I don’t know? I’ve only heard it in relation to Maine Coon Cats, and I’ve mostly had Maine Coon Cats for the last 20 years. Seems to me that Regular Cats just get pegged, Black, White, Calico, Grey, Tuxedo, Tortie.
