How was/is your day?

MIne is ending. I am a very early riser as I often call family in Canada,
It has been bizarre here, really.. odd..

Panic early on when I realised that Boycat was still awol; the third day. Just panic. I wandered around outside calling him to no avail,

He is a foodie so someone must be feeding him and that worries me
And later he had the runs so … OK now.

I know he is miffed with the new ones
Then I heard a cat fight. Yep, Boycat is home... Nearly cried with relief. Not all that hungry so...

I had been reading here and online and the advice. as he is seventeen and may be a little senile. is to keep him in. NB I have the old dog lead and if I can get a collar,,,
So he has been trying out all day - or sleeping on my shoulder, and doors have become important as in keeping them closed. If I start to weaken I remember last night when I knew he was still out.

Then Oliver decided to pee in my bed where I live much of the time. So that created a lot of hand washing. All sorted. And Oliver has lost his bed privileges, He was a street cat in Sligo and just sometimes the wild back street streak emerges.
I think he was unsettled by the fuss re Boycat.

It has helped being here: the ME reacts badly to unusual doings. Thank you all and each

Groceries are due tomorrow; although they forecast moderate to strong winds out here. But if not. then Friday and if not Friday I have plenty in.
Sheer chaos when four or five great boxes of food arrive...
Half is cat food of course

So have a safe and lovely evening. May your meal be excellent and your loved ones around you..
Blessings and peace... Boycat sends a purr.... Off to have some CDM

I'm glad to hear Boycat was OK!

I had a mildly embarrassing incident which might amuse you. I bought some new, high heeled shoes that I found were a bit tight so I thought, while WFH today, I would try to stretch them by wearing them with thick socks. I put on the thickest I had, a pair of pink, sparkly, fluffy 'slipper socks' (they were a present from MIL and not my taste but welcome as they are nice and warm) and shoved my feet into these black stilettos, and settled down to work.

Then someone came to the door - I was expecting a parcel but not till tomorrow, so I dashed to the door not stopping to take the shoes off. It was my parcel, and I had to stand there while he took my details for the virtual signature, dressed in a very respectable navy work dress paired with bright pink sparkly socks and towering stilettos Blush.

I've named changed just in case Mr Delivery Man is on here!

I hope you are spared very strong winds tomorrow & your food arrives.
