I am hoping to actually get outside with the camera this afternoon, but today you just get some notes of goings on around here. I never get tired of seeing my dog and cats snuggling.
Sky and Tiger
I purposely left a blank shelf on the new plant stand–for both Sky and the cats.
Salem looking out the window.
Of course, before Salem decided to just use the open shelf, he had to dump my poor plant on the shelf right above the empty one. I’m trying to stop that.

Otherwise, I think the plants like the new stand.
My Christmas cactus is getting some blooms
The airplane plants are also flowering.
Herbie was a good kitty. He managed to catch his first mouse in the house.

He was not about to take his paw off that thing because he had quite the audience just hoping to take it from him. I am quite happy to say that the mouse did not survive.

My family was here for Christmas Eve, and my crazy ADHD dog was really good. I am grateful that at 6-years-old, he’s finally growing up. At one point, he was wearing a big fake snake on his back. The next day, I found the snake in my lemon tree. I have a crazy, fun family.
Salem and Bob had vet appointments yesterday. Salem was just his routine shots.
I’m trying to figure out what is going on with Bob, so they did blood work. The results were not good–most likely he has some sort of blood/bone cancer. So I will baby him and keep him grumpy as long as I can.

Finally, a couple of birds outside because the birds still make me smile.
There were two blue jays in the maple tree
A red-bellied woodpecker in the oak tree
They are one of my favorites
We are really starting to warm up. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get my winterizing done before we turn cold again. And, I want to actually take my camera out for some pictures!
