Morning all. I"m up, dressed, (mostly, anyway) and almost awake. The usual summer weather pattern has taken hold a bit early this year, so from now until September it’ll be hot and humid with a good chance of rain at random times throughout the day. ---

Insomnia and having to work in a hot warehouse today will make for a seriously sucky day. At least I get paid today, so may have the miniature emperor cater dinner. ---

Third night in a row that I was up till midnight. NOT FUN!!! And I don’t have the luxury of trying to nap because company is arriving tonight and I can’t put anything off. Add to that, the fun of laundering cat-peed bed linens, well, it’s a glorious morning. OK, it is nice out - 64° at the moment, so there’s that. Once I’m done with the laundry, I’ve got to mow the front ditch at the very least. Not sure how much other mowing I’m willing to attempt - I may weedwhack instead. We shall see. And it’s the 25th - only six months till Christmas!!! :eek: 😛 Happy Thursday, such as it is… ---

I was logged off last night when this happened, but he peed on the pillows in the guest room, getting the sheets underneath in the process. The only reason we could come up with was that the litter box offended him. We typically just add fresh litter as needed rather than dumping it all. So last night, \*\*FCD \*\*dumped it all and refilled the box. We shall see if that works… ---

Mr. Murphy says there is 100% chance of heavy, windy thunderstorms before I get home from irk. Mr. Murphy is more accurate than the NWS & bases his forecast on two things: 1. NWS saying there’s a 60-70% change of thunderstorms (yeah, I believe them. :rolleyes:) 2. I left the winders open. :smack: ---

I figure we’re going to have nasty storms, etc, tonight about the time my daughter and the inlaws will be crossing from VA into MD, because there’s nothing quite like the Nice Bridge in a gawd-awful storm! All the bedding is on the line, and I have a load of shirts and shorts in the washer. Once they’re hung out, I’ll mow the ditch. Not sure how much else I’ll mow - we’ll just see. I still want a nap!! ---
