A new member of the family

Meet Miss P. (Penny). She’s a 6-year old surrender from the Humane society. She’s a very shy lady and we literally got her almost sight unseen.

She’s just come out from under the couch and starting to explore intermittently.

And here’s an image of her huddled in the shelter. Hard to tell how pretty she is <3

A blast for the past

I spent a few years (grade twelve and after) working in a stockyard as a labourer and working sales. I came across a video the other day celebrating the career of one of the auctioneers (Ross Annet) and grabbed some screen caps.

The ring with an auction in progress. I rarely saw this view except during breaks as we spent most of our time outside shivering 12–14 hours at a stretch.

Halloween 2024

Last night was Halloween and we did the traditional pumpkin and tequila thing. Not so much with the tequila these days…getting older sucks 🙂

I also asked Chat GPT to give me some tequila fairies and this is what they delivered. Appropriately creepy :-0
