O.T. --- Weather & a Comforter --- O.T.

[ItsJoanNotJoAnn]

Our weather has definitely taken a nosedive over the
last 2 weeks or so. Somewhat chillier in the daytime
than is normal for us along with even chillier nights.
Last night we were down to 26°F (-3.33°C) 🥶 and I'd
made up my mind earlier in the week when I strip the
bed today the comforter would be joining the blanket
and lightweight quilt on my bed.

Anybody else been piling blankets and quilts on their
bed in the last few day?? Ed & Jill, you can tell us
you've been running the a/c as you sweat just reading
this post.

It is a crisp sunny 24 as I write this... I like it "cool", so a heavy
cotton blanket is sufficient for the evenings...

For "warmth", I have a big thing of potatoe soup going in the slow
cooker... sliced yellow pertaters, kielbasa, celery, onion, garlic,
corn, can of stewed tomatos, chicken broth, Eyetalian seasoning, diced
jalapenos...

Will be served with shredded cheddar cheeze and croutons... plenty to
freeze...

Does MISS KITTY snuggle and keep you warm and cozy at night...???

No, she does not sleep with me. She will get in my
lap as I watch TV and sleep, though.

I love a good potato soup. Can't say that I've ever considered using
jalapenos. We made a pot with bacon the other day.

I'm still sleeping with the window cracked open a little. It was
22 F last night. Just one old, kind of lumpy comforter keeps me
toasty all night.

LOL I don't know about Ed but it got colder here on Thanksgiving, high
temps in the 40's and again today. It finally feels like Fall. I've
had the heat on. I still won't need a quilt on my bed, though.

The woman who rescued Cleo dropped her off at my house yesterday
morning. I let Cleo out of the carrier in my bedroom. She hid under
the bed, as expected. She started coming out gradually when I'd go in
the bedroom and call her name. She made a bee-line for the food bowls,
then she'd go back under the bed. But now she's coming out almost
immediately when I walk in say her name, and she's letting me pet her.

I used the scoop to make scratching sounds in the litter box as soon as
she arrived. The litter box is in the water closet (toilet & tub area)
of the bathroom. She found it and has been using it. She stayed in the
bedroom under the bed most of the day today but she's getting more
brave. Just now she's ventured out into the living room, where I'm
sitting at my desk typing. I'm ignoring her. Letting her explore on
her own. No pressure.

I thought she was a grey tabby with a white face and bib. Turns out
she's actually brown with black spots and stripes on her body and two
white stockings on her back feet. I'll try to get some pics when she's
more comfortable in her new surroundings. She's a beautiful kitten!

She is settling in very quickly!! Pema took three weeks
to accept this is new home. Pepper took over two months
before she'd let me touch her or even see her.

I got lucky with this little girl. Settling in very quickly indeed!
This evening she discovered snoozing on top of the bed is much more
comfortable than hiding underneath it. :) And yes, she lets me pet her
and if I lean towards her she gives me a head bump. It's comical. I'm
letting her deal with things at her own pace but she seems to be quite
happy.

Meanwhile, I'm watching 'The Crawling Eye', a cheesy old horror movie on
TV (Svengoolie) which is ridiculously stupid.

Supposedly when a cat gives you a head bump it means
they have accepted you as their buddy. Pepper has
found out she likes sleeping draped over my legs
while I'm perched on the couch.

Whatever it means to a cat, it's cute! Cleo ventured out into the
living room last night while I was at my desk answering some emails.
Next thing I know, she was exploring other rooms. I have the door to
the guest bedroom closed; no need to give her another bed to hide under.
And the door to the kitchen is closed. No reason for her to go in
there since her food bowls & water bowl are in the bedroom.

She hasn't ventured out of my room yet this morning but she will. She
jumped up on the bed a couple of times during the night but didn't stay
there. She's still unsure of her new surroundings (and of me, despite
the head bump and letting me pet her). She's got a squeaky little meow
and is totally cute. :)

Further information: The vet records the woman gave me note a "tipped"
ear. Once Cleo came out of hiding I could see it. That means she was
part of a TNR program. But the vet doesn't think she was born in a
feral colony since she is litter box trained. They think some asshole
dumped her. I hate to say this, but there are a lot of military people
in this area who get transferred out and, unfortunately, they leave pets
behind. A lot of stupid people think cats can fend for themselves so
they set them loose and leave them. I'm so glad this woman and her
husband took her in, took her to the vet and took care of her until I
adopted her.

The channel is MeTV, Svengoolie is a TV host along the lines of the
1970's Vampira. I seem to remember seeing this movie on the Friday
Night Fright Flicks that came on at midnight when I was a teenager. And
yes, it was a totally cheesy movie! :)

It always makes me sad. Iowna (my little blind lady) came to me
because the owner could not afford glaucoma treatment. The rescue could
and I donated too, not knowing I'd end up owning her 2 years later.

Aunti Mabel because deaf due to untreated major ear infections.
Couldn't come to recall when hunting. Aunti Mabel had been a pen
raised hunter and breeder all her life.

I was asked to watch her over thanksgiving as she recovered from
heartworms and was spayed while in treatment. Vets decided she was
17-23 when I got her. (dogs don't have menopause, they just slow down
a lot). She was in bad shape but house broke mostly in 3 days.

They asked for her return and got 'Over my dead body, I'm keeping her!'

Good choices. My house is more open design so can't do that. Oh the
bedrooms and bathrooms have doors, but livingroom and kitchen are open
to each other.

Sad but they aren't the only ones who do that. Don and I opted to not
have any pets until in my final dutystation because of that. We did
foster meowmie those years unstead.

Our weather has definitely taken a nosedive over the
last 2 weeks or so.  Somewhat chillier in the daytime
than is normal for us along with even chillier nights.
Last night we were down to 26°F (-3.33°C) 🥶 and I'd
made up my mind earlier in the week when I strip the
bed today the comforter would be joining the blanket
and lightweight quilt on my bed.
Anybody else been piling blankets and quilts on their
bed in the last few day??  Ed & Jill, you can tell us
you've been running the a/c as you sweat just reading
this post.

LOL I don't know about Ed but it got colder here on Thanksgiving, high
temps in the 40's and again today.  It finally feels like Fall.  I've
had the heat on.  I still won't need a quilt on my bed, though.
The woman who rescued Cleo dropped her off at my house yesterday
morning.  I let Cleo out of the carrier in my bedroom.  She hid under
the bed, as expected.  She started coming out gradually when I'd go in
the bedroom and call her name.  She made a bee-line for the food bowls,
then she'd go back under the bed.  But now she's coming out almost
immediately when I walk in say her name, and she's letting me pet her.
(snippage)
I thought she was a grey tabby with a white face and bib.  Turns out
she's actually brown with black spots and stripes on her body and two
white stockings on her back feet.  I'll try to get some pics when she's
more comfortable in her new surroundings.  She's a beautiful kitten!
Jill

She is settling in very quickly!!  Pema took three weeks
to accept this is new home.  Pepper took over two months
before she'd let me touch her or even see her.

I got lucky with this little girl.  Settling in very quickly indeed! This
evening she discovered snoozing on top of the bed is much more comfortable
than hiding underneath it. :)  And yes, she lets me pet her and if I lean
towards her she gives me a head bump.  It's comical.  I'm letting her deal
with things at her own pace but she seems to be quite happy.
Meanwhile, I'm watching 'The Crawling Eye', a cheesy old horror movie on
TV (Svengoolie) which is ridiculously stupid.

I used the scoop to make scratching sounds in the litter box as soon

area) of the bathroom. She found it and has been using it. She
stayed in the bedroom under the bed most of the day today but she's
getting more brave. Just now she's ventured out into the living
room, where I'm sitting at my desk typing. I'm ignoring her.
Letting her explore on her own. No pressure.

Yesterday the AC ran for about 15 minutes, not at all today. The 8 day
forecast shows one day at 74, the others range 68 to 70. I like that.

I have a Honeywell thermostat that has an app on the phone and it tracks
hours run each week. In August, it would run 65 hours. In October it
in the 35 hour range, November 15 hours, this week, ending tomorrow, 2
hours 48 minutes.

Quilting used to be big in Hawaii but people that quilt, like my aunts,
are dying out. I can't say how the Hawaiians got into quilting. They
probably learned it from the missionary. Those guys didn't care for the
Hawaiian gods, or chanting, or dancing, or the lack of clothing, or the
Hawaiians having sex - so what else are you going to do? Quilting, of
course.

The last Queen of Hawaii was a quilter, among other things. The quilt
she made while she was imprisoned following the overthrow of her kingdom
is rather disturbing. That's understandable, she did it while waiting
for the President of the United States to assist her in getting back on
the throne. It was help that never arrived.

One of the greatest things we White Folx gave yoose Hawaiians is the
MOTHERFUCKER HUBBARD:

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_Hubbard_dress

Motherfucker Hubbard dress

"A Motherfucker Hubbard dress is a long, wide, loose-fitting gown with
long sleeves and a high neck. It is intended to cover as much skin as
possible. It was devised in Victorian western societies to do housework
in...

It is mostly known today for its later introduction by Christian
missionaries in Polynesia to "civilise" those whom they considered
half-naked savages...

The Mother Hubbard garments were insisted upon by the missionaries, who
were often horrified to find a flock of near-naked people in their
churches...

They were distributed widely in Africa, South Asia, and the Pacific.
They have influenced modern dress in all these areas, but particularly
in the Pacific islands where they persist today...

Names and designs vary...

In Hawaii, it is called holokū. There, a derivative, the muʻumuʻu, is
highly similar, but without the yoke and train, and therefore even
easier to make...

Our weather has definitely taken a nosedive over the
last 2 weeks or so. Somewhat chillier in the daytime
than is normal for us along with even chillier nights.
Last night we were down to 26°F (-3.33°C) 🥶 and I'd
made up my mind earlier in the week when I strip the
bed today the comforter would be joining the blanket
and lightweight quilt on my bed.
Anybody else been piling blankets and quilts on their
bed in the last few day?? Ed & Jill, you can tell us
you've been running the a/c as you sweat just reading
this post.

Not necessary. The joy of our new leader Trump keeps me warm at night! For
extra warmth I use the tears of democrats! =D

There's still something wrong with your settings. I mean, who is

D previously pretended he lives in a country he wouldn't

Yes, we have a thick and thin comforter on top of the sheets. If I were

I listen to 650 WSM from Nashville on the radio when I drive home after
dark in the evenings. I was surprised the other night when I heard that
Nashville weather was almost as cold as us in Ohio! No snow yet, thank God.
