    ...after a very brief taste of "real winter " here two weeks ago, it's suddenly late spring.. Was 68° today with more of the same tomorrow into Saturday .  Went to my neighbourhood hangout today and sat outside to bask in the sun.  Felt great.

    The extended forcast here lingers in the 40's... good enough for me. I even heard birds today! Supposed to be 30+ mph winds tomorrow though, which is... less great. Little dude loves the wind, but pushing that stroller uphill against it is not my favorite. That thing catches wind like a sail. And I'm out of shape after a sedentary winter.

    We'll see if it's even an option, though. We might be back to nocturnal. Today he went to bed at 4:30 AM, woke at 10 when I got up to pee, and couldn't get back to sleep. Then he napped from about 1-4 PM... our entire sleep schedule has just gone in the blender. Again.

    So grateful I have the ability to roll with it, but oof.

    Reduced Mini-adventure:  It was too much.  Was feeling unenergized(like a dead bunny) this morning.  Went to bed 2 hours early last night.  Woke in the middle of the night to cough up more yellow/green goo for an hour.  Feeling weak & blah at bus time.  Decided against laundry, but did get to BurgerKing breakfast and mandatory drugstore visit for prescription pickup, then decided against grocery shopping too, just came home.  Collapsed in recliner and listened to music for an hour, mostly asleep.  Had lunch.  Better now.  Laundry rescheduled for next week's mini-adventure.  Not a spring chicken anymore.frown

    We have a Maine Coon cat. He's small by Maine Coon sizes, but he's the biggest cat in our neighbourhood. My complaint is that he's just too nice. We had to rescue him from a cat half his size that had backed him into a corner and was beating him up. Daft Cat. Regards, Richard.

    Tried that. He's immune to counselling and training, just like every cat, he knows best. Even when he doesn't.

    I thought of something to lookup but before I could get to type the query I forgot it.

    Also I noticed that my computer sounds was not working right.  Apparently one monitor has sound issues which caused it not to work.

    Never underestimate the little ones. My girfriend in high school had a full-grown cat that had never gotten bigger than a kitten. She had a bell on her collar. She was front-declawed. And she still deposited giant headless bunnies on the front step. It was unreal.

    That said, Maine Coons are just giant love bugs. Mine was an indoor only, but one day when a frog got in the house (still not sure how) he just sang to it and tried to make friends. He'd do the same with the toys we'd get him. About the only thing he ever showed a hunting instinct for was the laser pointer. I'm not sure I ever heard him hiss once at anything.

    Looks like 2 PM is our new wakeup time. The winds were fierce, and we went walking anyway, and I think little dude was entirely fine with the fact that it slowed me down because it meant he got to enjoy the wind longer. It was cold enough I actually wore a hoodie; usually I'm the weirdo out there in short sleeves when everyone else is walking in a parka (in my defense, I walk fast and my 5' tall self is pushing 50+ pounds of stroller, often uphill). He was even okay with putting on new, next-size-up shoes for the first time today, which has in the past been a source of great stress. Now he's playing tub toys. It's a good day to be a little dude. And I am grateful for the seemingly small victories in life.

    Sorry it was a struggle, but good for you for listening to your limits. I know that can be hard when there's a to-do list involved
