Homeless Cat -- Now Spotacus' Legacy
On 18 Dec, a very large cat showed up at our house. It was late and cold, and he looked in the door and made it clear he wanted inside. Well, since we have two cats already and he was a stranger, we...

:S The haggis!!! I forgot the haggis!!! Drat. Oh, well, next year, now that I have the web page bookmarked.
The weather turned a mite chilly for New Year's Eve, so the fireplace was a nice touch, once WLToo got the wood to finally burn. Took him three tries before it finally caught, which has happened to him exactly never before. We didn't burn anything today, even though it was chilly and raining, because we want it all for tomorrow, when it's going to be flat out cold.
Tall and Short Friends had a terrible start to 2019. First, his truck decided to short out, so it's in for repairs. Then on the way home from our New Year's Eve gathering, her SUV's rear window exploded inward as they passed a fireworks stand. Despite a thorough search for any projectiles, they found nothing to explain why the window went all splody. No indication that anything untoward had occurred at the fireworks stand, either. Just another of life's little mysteries, I reckon.
So tomorrow, we'll pick them up at the glass replacement place just down the road from our house, and they'll feed us brunch at the breakfast/lunch place that opened up last summer.
Meanwhile, WLToo and I are getting used to those FitBits. Amazing how far one walks just on an ordinary day. Looks like we'll ramp up to the recommended 10k daily steps (five miles) fairly quickly, and then I expect we'll lose a few pounds of ugly fat.
The cats have established an evening schedule that they do not want to change, even when the house is full of people. About 2000 (8:00 pm), they zoom. At 2100 (9:00 pm), I get double barreled kittens in my chair with me. It's always Czarny on the left and Rudy on the right. Then about 2300 (11:00 pm), they want to play.
Speaking of which..... Later, y'all.
