Oh oh. Balcony work.

I'm sitting here watching Kitty react to the fella working on the balcony next door. Mine is next. That means I have to move my balcony garden to my front door walkway. A minor annoyance. Anyway, Kitty was under my desk chair, which I have not seen before. She stayed there when I sat down. Then she moved to a position where she could carefully watch what was going on outside. Finally she fell asleep. How is your day shaping up? I have to listen to electric drills, falling lumber, and tools I cannot identify today. I will swim later in the afternoon. Photo is of the log I replaced last Summer in Montana. I hope it has held up.

I hope the work doesn't last too long...like drag on for days. At least you have the time away at the Guitar Center for a "different sound!!"

I listened to a backhoe digging holes in the yard across the street from us yesterday and today the same neighbor has a crew replacing his roof. Noisy guys. I am feeling sorry for them out in this high heat. (It was supposed to reach 98F today. I forgot to see what it actually did reach.)

@Ineeddentures I think changing sleeping positions tires them out.

It's extremely annoying when you have to move all your stuff to let worker do their job.

She is tolerating more loud noises than she usually does.

When is your next trip to Montana? No doubt there will be plenty for you to do up there.
