Time to say goodbye to the holidays for me – bah, humbug survives another season to rise like the phoenix for another new year. What’s ahead for 2022?
I started the New Year much like I’d ended the Old Year – with a morning walk through the neighborhood.
the sun rose in the east over a neighbor’s American flag –
somewhat reassuringly, I felt on both counts, given the anniversary of the January 6th insurrection in six days
America strong? America divided? Where to, America, in 2022? What next?
who’s this in front of Bully Cat’s crib?
Well, well, well. Something new to see on the first day of the New Year. A different cat sitting in the driveway of Bully Cat’s secret hiding place with the open door policy for him. Apparently Bully Cat has a Crib Cat Companion. Where to, what next for Bully Cat himself?
Bully Cat across the street from our house when I got home
Bully Cat up to his Old Tricks on the first day of 2022 – strolling past me as I walked up our driveway. Where to, BC – what next? Is there hope for redemption from your bullying behavior in the new year? Is there hope for redemption for everyone in the new year…
so where did that put Carport Kitty –
in a familiar hiding spot
but under Pretty’s truck in our driveway instead of Neighbor John’s
Where to, what next, Carport Kitty? Will you stay afraid of Bully Cat, or are you running a food scam with him? Only the New Year solves the mysteries.
Regardless, you have a place to call home
and a new favorite spot in the warmer weather –
keeping watch over yarn ball Pretty got you for Christmas
**************
Stay safer, stay saner, please won’t you just get vaccinated and boosted, please stay tuned.
I'll Call It Like I See It

I’m afraid to ask any questions about 2022. On New Year’s Day a meteor exploded over Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Mind you that’s almost 400 miles west, and I didn’t hear or feel the explosion, but it’s not a terribly auspicious start. Happy New Year? The jury’s out!!

We have had 7 earthquakes in our area in the past couple of weeks. E-A-R-T-H-Q-U-A-K-E-S.
Meteor explosions in your state.
Shit house mouse, as the Red Man would have said.
Jury is definitely out for 2022 so far.

You have a kind heart. Sweet kitties. How is your son and his family doing? How is Ella?

Our son and his wife have now tested negative and are doing much better!
Ella is hanging in – we took them more testing kits this afternoon and talked through the kitchen window. Pretty took her mask off so Ella could see her smile and was met with a finger wag and a “put your mask on, Nana, and don’t take it off again.” At two years old, she has learned Covid lessons. Somehow so very strange to me. But so thankful they are much improved. And thank you for asking!

Good to read the latest in the saga.

Maybe the new year will bring us and Carport Kitty a clean carport. It could happen

Hahaha – good one, Pretty. Not sure Carport Kitty would know how to act in a clean carport, but let’s give it a whirl in 2022.
Thank you for the rescue tonight.
