Goin’ fairly well for a chilly morning! I know it’s colder up there though, so you and Bo stay in where it’s warm and cozy!
I can’t even get my kitties to go out much less stay for any length of time. :)

Yes, I found that out by going out for a few minutes to feed hubby’s birds, since he’s still gone. I didn’t tarry. LOL!
Wish he was a Canteener but he says he doesn’t have time. *rolling eyes*

Nobody is cooking! LOL! I’m eating lots of frozen entrees and sammiches. I might starve if he doesn’t get back soon. *grin*
JK...we have lots of fast food joints around here to keep me alive.
He said yesterday that his mom said he couldn’t come home because I had trained him too well and he was kinds handy. I think she’s giving him a workout! LOL! Kinda funny......
