I like bees and flowers and bees on flowers and cats and gardens and cats in gardens, and books, and cats in books, and bookstores, and cats in bookstores. And democracy, I like that a lot. No DM's

I found the perfect Fall bedding combo. Flannel top sheet, regular bottom sheet. It doesn't stop the 2am insomnia-anxiety spiral, but I am so cozy during it. #Insomnia #LookingForOneOfTheCatsToComeSleepOnTheBed #WalkingAroundTheHouseDoesNotHelpInsomnia #NeitherDoesThis

I always say I don't really do indoor plants. I'm beginning to think I lie. This is only because circumstances preclude me from inviting another cat to come live with us #CatsOfBluesky #PlantsOfBluesky #InAndOutGardening
Corner of a room with a few plants. Maybe a bit more than a few. How many is 12 considered?

Is there any creature better than cats at claiming territory? This was area I was arranging to have space to possibly overwinter some outside plants that aren't in my zone. The table is a new addition to this space, so of course the tuxedo has homesteaded the choice bit. #CatsOfBluesky #Squatters
Corner of room filled with plants, on stands, floor and a table. On the table the plants are all on one side since a tuxedo cat has staked his claim since it is a prime spot for outside viewing,  which also translates into prime space for sunlight.

It's early, but Fall calls for comfort food. Don't think your color needs adjusting. I put in a purple yam, lol, a little surprise effect for the season that I didn't expect.
Chicken stew with a slight purple cast due to addition of purple yam.

Fall is here. Dark by 7:00. But slip out just before sunset and the garden doesn't want to give up summer anymore than we do and still has a show to put on. #Gardens

You ever get up from the comfy spot on the couch for a second cup of really good coffee and when you get back... yup that's what living with cats is like if anyone needs to know #CatsOfBluesky #Caturday #IWasGoneAMinute #YouCan'tHaveFallenAsleepThatQuick
Black and white cat, sleeping soundly on a comfy coach with gray pillow with white swans on it and a grey fuzzy throw on back of couch. "I'm sleeping if you don't mind". Cat when I say "Hey, I was sitting there".

 Pretty Black and white cat looking straight at you with a quizzical innocent slightly annoyed look.

Disassembled old fountain waiting for someone to help me put back together- it is heavy! Spot where fountain was, that needs attention. I do have a plan for these bricks. Overgrown cucumber plant that I hate to cut back because so many baby cucumbers, but also, anyone want some cucumbers? All plants that need deadheading represented by this butterfly bush. WEEDS

You know the moment in Dead Zone by @stephenking.bsky.social, when the politician puts a child between himself and an assassin's bullet? It's understood, it's the end of that sociopath's machinations. Not the first time I would be ok with living in a world with Mr. King's version of morality.

A little crepe myrtle started growing in a pot last year. I left it thinking someone might want it. It's got buds and will bloom as a little mini crepe myrtle in a pot! I might be in love. This is not my past experience with growing crepe myrtle, waited years for a bare root to grow and bloom.
