hoping you all are doing fine...winter is behind us now...and I am looking forward to the snow finally disappearing. The mounds still are huge...but they are melting. Maybe I will be able to see the neighbours house across the street before long...hahahaha.
Skimby is a hoot...such a wild one...but he comes to his name...and meows at us. He actually sat in my lap for more than a nano second yesterday...and then squeezed in beside me in the chair that I was sitting in. Did not stay long...but it is a start.
Almost March Break...hope that you have some time off to enjoy with Paislee.

All went well...but looking at a computer screen is drying to the eyes and mine were that to begin with...so not going to push it.
Skimbi was happy to see us...and ran to greet us at the sunroom door...and meowed to boot. He is still a speed demon and we love it...

Skimpy is a speed demon...he runs like the wind. So happy to be free. You would think that he was doing agility as he races through his tunnel and then around and back through. He has figured out his scratching posts...uses his kitty litter...and will now eat and drink in front of us...he had been just doing this at night. He purrs and loves to be brushed. Never settles for long...and he is off again looking for squirrels out the window...or jumping off the furniture. I cannot imagine what he must be thinking when he formerly could not race about...and could see only those who went by his cage. He will now sleep in a cat bed during the day if he so desires...he was avoiding them. He has two. He likes the smaller one. Eats well.
I will not be around after Tuesday...as this will be my trip to London for cataract surgery.
Have fun in the sun...as I am sure that you are experiencing it too.

I popped in to say that we have a furry critter in our house...and it is not a chippie or squirrel. Both of which have come in at one time or another.
His name is Skimbleshanks...a black cat about six months old. His middle name should be Scaredycat because he is so scared of everything. But he was a stray and been at the shelter in a cage by himself for three months...no one wants a black cat. I think that they bring luck.
We brought him home on Monday afternoon...I managed to pet him a few times but he generally hid behind the cat tree and freaked if you moved towards him. Kevin never even touched him. But it was love at first sight for him. He spent much of the first day with us in his cat carrier and did not want to come out when we were there...but he came out at night to eat and use the kitty litter. Yesterday I took away his crutch and he moved himself to a cat cave that we had bought...so we can pet him easier and reach in and get him out. He finally played with a toy with me late yesterday...and we heard him running around last evening in the sunroom. His toys were scattered. He seems to like to sleep on one of the chairs at night...so that is where we have found him both mornings. He is off to the vet shortly...and as soon as I put the cat carrier on the floor, he raced to it. His old buddy.

Taking a short break until March first. And then on the third will take a longer break as heading to London for cataract surgery. Not sure how long I will be gone. I am not having my eyes fully corrected so not sure what I will be able to see until I get new glasses a month or so later.
Hope you are all well...

Thank your Mom for me.
I actually feel quite positive about the experience. I am having the surgery done in London...so feel at home already.
And poor Paislee...but I remember winter months as a child...I know, hard to believe as so many years ago...hahahaha...but January and February were filled with sickness. Of course we had the delightful rubella, rubeola, chicken pox and mumps thrown in the mix. Kids are super spreaders at this age too.

I am scaling back play here in Fairyland...giving my eyes a rest before cataract surgery in early March. Have been setting up for various people looking for things...but one cannot help everyone...and I hope that some are not upset by that.

So funny...I was in Facebook messaging my friend in Calgary so she had a note to read when she woke up...and thought...I should leave you a message...so I come here to leave you one...head to my garden...and you had recently visited me. Hahaha. On the same wavelength.

Can you see me now...over the dump of snow...
We only got a dusting so far...which is a relief.
I suspect schools are closed today in your neck of the woods...SNOW DAY.
