Right now there is not much code to do, but maybe after. I am working on a framework to address the issues I've seen in the code base, perhaps that might get accepted and then a lot of refactoring will be needed.

Recently work has me doing more tech lead things than actual code. Its a little interesting, but I don't love it. I know people always see that as a progression path, but I like the "doing" more than the "planning" and only end up there because I want the 'doing" done right. And I hate writing docs

My first ever picture of Kati, still at the SPCA when I was picking her up. God in heaven, she was tiny, and I adore her just as much or more now.
Kati as a kitten, small little tabby in a cat carrier.

Had to wear a jacket this morning. Not impressed. Although, really, this is my favourite time of year.

Maybe she needs a companion? the right number of cats is however many you have + 1 :D Sorry I don't have a real solution to that, I think for me, I just became used to it. And I get up at 5 anyway

Fog is a glitch in the simulation. The servers can't render the complete background, so they introduce fog to lighten load.

Just put a lamb shank in the pressure cooker with onion garlic and rosemary, with potatoes and frozen vegetables. Hope the tastes meld well

No infection, the kitty cold she had as a kitten is a herpes virus, and just comes back with symptoms from time to time they said.

What's the point of Facebook anymore? I counted, 8 posts that were either ads or from something Facebook thinks I might be interested in before I saw one post from my actual friends.

Kati has a bit of a weepy eye, with some pinkish tint to the discharge, taking her to the vet at 2. Doesn't seem to be bothering her all the same, no squinting or rubbing.

If using your phone in cars is dangerous, why don't they mandate technology to disable them in vehicles, or at least to disable hand held actions. Seems doable

Still puzzled on how Kati knew I was coming, when I was 5 minutes away, and not even in my own car. Do I smell that strongly? LOL! But she came down to the door crying 5 minutes before I got home.

I've been out all day for my hockey pool draft, and I didn't drive, but went with a friend, yet, 5 minutes before I got home, Kati somehow knew and went downstairs to the door crying for me

This is how all my sicknesses usually come on. Had a scratchy throat yesterday and again today. Usually its not that far delayed for me. Hoping nothing more comes - though everyone in my house is coughing
