The animals are doing all right. Annie is happy and content to go with me just about everywhere she can. The cats are still being cats, and practicing their cuteness skills, like Beau sitting in my grocery tote above. They all love to sit in that grocery tote, like Zoë does below.
The cats much prefer the tote over a pedestrian cardboard box. If they come across a cardboard box these days, they tend to bite into it and tear it to shreds rather than sit in it. As tiny carnivores I think they like the sound and activity of destroying cardboard.
The Future
My writing and posting are slowing down these days towards an average of one posting/week, instead of driving towards one/day as I’ve tried to in the past. My reasons for this are varied, not the least of which is that my personal time is becoming more precious to me, and I need that personal time for other tasks I consider more important. Another way to look at my posting is that will become more erratic. There were already long periods of inactivity between posts, with a burst of back-to-back posts, followed by another long period of inactivity. It’s the bursty parts that will grow less bursty, if that makes any sense.
