I've just found out our Co-Op has closed after 158 years. I could see it coming though, it's been shrinking for years.

On Monday evening I set my oldest laptop, yes another now without a screen, updating. It had not updated for almost a year and its now on the third set of updates having somtime in the earlier hours of today upgraded to W11. It became screenless when I walked into its charging lead with the result it was volleyed across the room.

It's been a grey and very mild day here chez Casa Reynard. A bit blustery, but no rain other than what we got overnight.

The morning's main task was checking my store of tomatoes and making a pot of tomato and cannellini bean soup with the salvageable ones. The non-salvageable ones went into the green bin. There are still some left, we'll see how they'll keep. Also cleared the grate and scooped the litter tray.

Lovely luncheon of pate on toast, an apple and a

This afternoon's tasks included topping up all the wood bins in the house, sorting out packaging for gifts, and sorting out what needs to be gifted. I thought I had miscounted the packets of cat treats I needed, but I haven't. Just need to decide what preserves to gift.

Have also been doing a bit of work on chapter 29. I know I said I finished it, but I wasn't happy with the last section. Ergo I'm giving it some tweakage before signing it off.

Now sat by the fire with a and am watching the early evening news.

Your cat unit is malfunctioning. It's obvious that the "Mouse" app hasn't been installed.

well the mice aren't in common areas where she is. if they were, she'd be on them

- in walls & ceiling
- locked attic crawl space
- basement full of random dangers like chemicals, nails & broken glass
- outside at night or early mornings

 

[Reynard]

Time to feed the cat, and then it will be time to feed me.
