- This week we started having the cats eat in the same room (before they would eat with Ned behind the gate shown in the photo). It’s going decently! Starbuck sometimes runs away when she sees him, and sometimes doesn’t. She’ll be the last to come around to him. But Ned can walk up to Apollo and Khali and they won’t run away IF he is not chasing them or walking up to swat them. Which he sometimes is. Sigh.
- The baby blanket is coming along! I have 75 rows out of 200 done. If I was really ambitious I would try to knit 25 today to get to 100 rows knitted in a week/half way done in a week (I started it last Friday) but no. That would require many hours of knitting and probably lead to mistakes. I think I will take a break today and paint.
- I started taking written notes again at work meetings to bring my focus back. I am so so so burned out on digital meetings. So very.
- We’ve both been so tired this week. I am totally NOT looking forward to losing an hour of sleep this weekend, but I won’t mind having it be dark in the mornings again! The sun is starting to wake me up! On that note, I haven’t set a wakeup alarm in over two years. Nuts! I’ll have to when we got back to the office in a month.

I hope Ned stops acting like an a-hole to his sibs so he can be accepted fully!! Loving the blanket, looks so amazing!!!!!! You’re the best!
I do too! I really feel like things are getting better. This morning he jumped the gate and ran upstairs but Apollo didn’t hide or make weird growling noises like usual. So, when I say things are getting better, I mean with the trio. LOL. Not Ned.
Thanks! I am so glad you like it! I think the colors you picked out look really nice!
Aw, that photo of all the cats eating together is sweet. I really hope things continue to improve, as long as Ned improves his behavior, too!
The baby blanket looks great! I imagine it’s so hard not to just keep going but knowing that will lead to mistakes is a good reason to take it slowly.
I loooove when we go back to DST. I mean, I wish we didn’t have to go back and forth twice a year but having it still be light at 7:30 is SO nice!
Things are getting better! Ned is chasing a little less (finally), and Starbuck is running away a bit less when they all eat together. We let Ned out all night after work yesterday and there were no fights but the trio mostly stayed upstairs – and we really don’t want them to do that. But at least they came out to stare at him. LOL.
Thanks! And yes, it’s mindless and requires so much focus at the same time. Ha!
Yes! I wish we would just stay on it! I would love having the sun not set at 4:00 pm in the winter. Ha.
Oh, fingers crossed that Ned starts to realize acting like a non-feral cat = regular treats and food and play time. 🙂 In other words… the good life!
I’m SO impressed with your knitting speed! Wow! I have long wanted to re-learn how to crochet but it’s on the long list of “things I’d like to do but some how never make the time to do”. Sigh. Your sister’s new baby is so lucky!
He is! He is chasing less, yay!
Oh wow, thanks! I feel like I am going slow! I hope you do learn, it’s really rewarding to make something. And thanks! I can’t wait to see her (the baby) on the blanket!
