I put on all my cycling stuff and then looked outside and saw it had just started raining. Well then. Instead of having four things I wanted to accomplish, I suddenly had three. I don’t mind riding in the rain, if I’m already out and it starts to rain. That’s fun, and funny. <\/p>\n

But it takes some doing, getting everything clean and dry at the end of that ride. Price of admittance, though. And you’re honoring Rule #9<\/a>. Somewhat, that is. If I’d gone out, willfully turning the pedals just as the rain began, it would be a perfect expression of the rules.<\/p>\n

But if you can stay dry, stay dry. That’s not a rule anyway, as far as I know, but maybe it oughta be.<\/p>\n

So I stayed in and worked on one of the other three things. And, hey, one-third of one of those three things was accomplished. And here’s the proof. <\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

So a few more sets of cufflinks, ready to adorn sleeves. Don’t they look nice? I especially like the pair on the bottom. This photo doesn’t really do them justice. And now I need more french cuff shirts. And then more cufflinks. And so you see how it spins out of control pretty quickly. When I get through with all of these I’ll have … way too many of these things. <\/p>\n

Which is fine, because a project a bit further down the list of things to do is build something with which to hold all of my cufflinks. <\/p>\n

So many projects, so little time.<\/p>\n

The cats are no help with the many projects. But otherwise, they are fine. And to begin our weekly check with a cozy shot of Phoebe sleeping in her hammock seat.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

Put something fuzzy in front of a window and she’s set.<\/p>\n

Here she was, one recent evening, cuddling and … volunteering … for … something. Most assuredly she was not offering to help with any running project.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

This is the way they’ve been lately. When one gets up the other immediately takes over. Like Poseidon, here, who has spent a lot of time curled up next to me the last few days.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

He’s keen on taking naps on kneecaps. <\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

Making this another week in which we won’t solve the mysteries of kitties.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, more progress! I’m trying a new thing: I’m talking my many projects into fruition! Let’s see how that goes for a while. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
