We Mowed

So I didn't make scrambled eggs for the freezer. It stayed breezy so mowing wasn't bad. And I didn't have a lot of area to trim either. So it's finished now. I decided to put Maui on back outside and keep Mary Jane in. Maui Waui wasn't calming down any towards Patch border collie who can have a temper. Mary Jane is still hissing some but not trying to smack too much. I am going to start bringing her into the family room soon and holding her. That's how I did it with Fuzzy cat. But I am keeping them separated when I am not with them. I added a few decorations out front this afternoon. I will take a picture when I have done a few more. Hope you had a good day.

The neighbor was working on mowing our yard when we left to go to the hospital this morning. It's looking nice now.

It is nice when a neighbour helps out like that, especially when you have other things to deal with. At least you came home to a nice-looking yard.

A calm day sounds pretty good to me. Sometimes those quiet days are exactly what we need.

I’m glad you’re working so hard to acclimate the cat to the dogs.

With Duke doberman I would just let the kittens roam. But Patch border collie can get angry easily.

Shepherding of the kitties sounds like a daily endeavor. Mary Jane sounds like one with a mind of her own.

I did the best I could to enjoy my day working at home sharing news stories and completing surveys.

That sounds like a pretty productive day. Working from home and getting surveys done can certainly keep you busy.

Sounds like you had a pretty productive day. At least the weather stayed breezy enough to make mowing easier. I like that you are taking things slowly with Mary Jane and giving her time to get comfortable around everyone. I will be looking forward to seeing the decorations when you add a few more

I am planning to go shopping for more Christmas decorations soon. I want a festive house for the holidays, not to feel too depressed.

Glad the breeze made mowing easier at least, one less thing to fight with. Sounds like the cat introductions are going slow but steady, that patience will pay off. Cant wait to see the front decorations when you get more done!
