Not to brag but my husband and I put together a set of bunk beds from IKEA today and we didn't argue, not even once.

Don't think we quite had frost last night, but I am taking the very heavy dew as a sign to pick the rest of my tomatoes.

My 4 year old grandson, who is a 70 year old man in a 4 year old's body, wanted to come and stay with us to give our cats a chance to really get to know him. He asked me to tell them that he doesn't chase cats around any more. That was last year.

Have spent the weekend watching a peewee football game, visiting youngest stepson in his groovy new Chicago digs, and watching 7 year olds play volleyball (so many ace serves! Like record breaking 😂). Oh, and about 14 hours of driving between 9 a.m. yesterday morning and 4 p.m. today. Worth it!

I have tried the Chicken and Waffles Oreos and they are....not bad. Maple flavored, with a hint of malt that I think must be the waffles. No chicken flavor, which was a relief tbh. Husband isn't a fan, so I'm glad I only bought the four cookie package.

We didn't go to Lapeer tonight but a friend sent this
A mural of Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. The mural depicts him from the shoulders up. He has a hopeful look on his face and he is looking to the left. He is wearing a blue suit with a white shirt and red necktie. The background is gold with green leaves, and there is a red, white, and blue banner curling beside him that says "Dr. Abdul El-Sayed".

Someone in Lapeer, Mich had a mural of Abdul El-Sayed painted on the side of their building and apparently this has made some people in Lapeer mad 😂 Going to see it after work. Will post a pic

One of our staff generously donated a set of new Disney storybooks to our Little Free Library - 32 books total - and another staff took them all. The concept of LFL is "take a book, leave a book". While we've never said staff can't take a book, the library is intended for our clients,

My boss left the heat blasting in our offices over the weekend, so I turned the air on when I came in because it was 75°F in here. Now he's in and turned the heat on again. I am getting him a big, chunky sweater for his birthday. Maybe an electric blanket.

Had to be a completist. Angus was the least impressed of the three, and immediately turned his back on me.

The Fiona coaster. The third one is a black cat, so an Angus coaster. They saw me coming, for sure.
A silver tabby is lying on a blue blanket on a couch. My husband's legs and hands are visible behind her. I am holding up a drink coaster that is a grey tabby cat head next to my cat's face. My cat is mildly annoyed that I have disturbed her nap to mock her with a coaster.

We went to the art fair in Ferndale after the walk, and I could not resist a set of cat coasters, especially since they had a Pia one

Up way too early on a Saturday and headed to the Detroit Zoo for the Walk to Defeat ALS Detroit. I lost my mom to ALS in 2001 so this is a cause near and dear to my heart. Looks like a beautiful day for a walk around the zoo and raise money for a great cause.
