Things out-of-place....

Some things just don't belong together in the store.

I also saw a frozen turkey sitting atop bunches of bananas in the Produce section.

When I went back by, it was gone.

Hopefully it was now back in the proper freezer.

Wonder how long it sat there?

Bananas bruise so easily. Then they go into the blender as part of a Smoothie.

Peaches too have a short shelf life but blend in well.


My cat notices when things are re-arranged.

Like having fresh grass in the house.

She's an inside cat so doesn't get out to graze.

I've been told grass is good for her digestion.

One doesn't live on Kibble alone.

She gets to gnaw a while then I take the pot back outside to refresh itself.

(Do computer patrols pick up on key words like "pot" and "grass?")

Maybe I should add the word "medical."

As luck would have it, during all the tropical rain we had - and flooding around the area - I had no need to leave the house. Whew.

Usually a heavy downpour is when I think about umbrellas.

They often are in the car when I am not.

And vice versa.

(Click on the photos for more detail.)

I once rented a place on James Island and the landlord had goats.

They took care of ANY grass that popped up.

Better than a lawn mower.

Frustrated the cats I bet.

SNOW weather is COLD weather.

So it was a White (Day After) Christmas in Charleston.

Philadelphia and Boston wished they had a "snow" like ours.

The winter storm that slammed into the upper East Coast caused delays for Santa, drivers, airlines and even the NFL.

Charleston was at the bottom of that wintery misery scale. Thank goodness.

We had our "heavy" snow back in February. The polite one that fell at night and was gone by noon.

My cat Wally is very definitely an Inside/Outside kind of pet.

Usually he is on the wrong side of the door and wants to be "over there" instead.

In..he wants out. Out.. he wants to be in.

He was really thinking "Inside is better" as he stared through the patio door.

It wasn't the snow so much as it was the low temps.

That orange striped fur coat looks pretty warm.

Of course I let him in, picked him up and shivered when I felt the cold, cold pads of his feet.

More Kibble for kitty. Maybe a treat too.

Brrr. Purr.


(Click on the pictures for more detail. The cat was outside more than my Canon S90 was. Remember: a camera lens can fog up when you go out in the cold. Thanks for pausing to read this.)
