Boo

As we approach Halloween I felt it fitting to honor the Princess of Darkness.
Frieda of the Dark


 She is a most serious cat and she holds a grudge.

So, matters of no consequence. We took a carload of boxes and bags to Goodwill on Saturday. We picked up my monthly non-wine order at Total Wine and had lunch at Culver's. If you are going to have fast food, that's the food to have. It's actually good. And the frozen custard, don't get me started. The day spent out and about meant I missed at least half of your blogs. I hate to admit that I come home mentally exhausted after being out in the world, but I do. It's what happens when a person with a tendency toward lonerism becomes too isolated. I am working on modifying myself. Stay tuned.

Yes, the stimuli from people and activity is very tiring when you're out of the habit. I suppose happy medium is the goal. Not that I would know much about moderation. When in doubt do all the things!

I look forward to reading about your adventures to get yourself out there more and not feel so drained. Though, being out can be a blood suck. I admire how you work on yourself and keep going. You are an inspiration. Keep up the good work and here's to an oogie boogie Halloween week 🎃

Love your moody kitty! I do miss have cats around, but we had one that preferred the carpet for her 'box' and I am so afraid we might get another cat like that! We have a Culver's nearby. Actually, we've had a few near previous homes. I have gone in to get a custard now and then, but I haven't had their renowned butter burger! We'll need to have an outing some day!

I tend to feel drained when I go out too. I just allow for it — it’s part of the process and no big deal. ❤️

We have a thing in common, no moderation, Boud. I think my life with horses will testify to that!!

Brass yourself for some mind-numbing boredom, Ivy. Grocery store, ummm, grocery store. 😄

I has a cod sandwich, Dreaming. The burgers are really good. I don't think, from my own longtime cat experience, that using the floor as a litter box is common. One of the cats was doing that a couple of years ago. I didn't realize she had a urinary tract infection. Cleared that up and she went bad to her good girl ways.

Everything is a big deal to me, Cheerful!
