It has been breezy this morning, and although most power lines here are underground, they had to create several new lines I guess because of the data center. Anyway, traffic is at a dead stop in both directions. Just turned the car off. I may be here for awhile. I hope not. I just ran out to get some cat litter.

Did you ever try out that litter that changes colors when something off is detected in your cat’s urine? Do you know what I’m talking about? Because I had also mentioned I got puppy pads that would indicate if something wrong was detected in the dog’s urine. Initially, I had them free to review, but after Annabelle mysteriously passed away it seemed a good idea to actually buy some for Sadie.

I haven't because it is so expensive. Plus, I heard that stuff gets everywhere it sticks to their paws or something. I wonder about him sometimes but he seems to have plenty of energy most days..so why look for trouble?

Not good.
All our power lines seem to be above ground
Big Pylons
When a line comes down from one of them it could kill someone

@toniganzon I would have turned around. I wasn't far from home.

@snowy22315 That's good to hear. At least you didn't get stuck for hours.

Not too bad maybe about 12 minutes. I thought it would be longer.

Oh I was home long ago. It didn't really last that long thankfully.

We got stuck in line at Wal-Mart today for about 20 minutes. I should post about it.

Walmart lines are sometimes long and tiresome.
