Fred and cats


Fred Groundhog appeared twice. She is anxious for spring. 1) Thursday, March 19, and 2) Sunday, March 22nd. The two of them have been asleep since 




I decided, after my PA suggested it, to put several carrots down for her on Monday. They were still there Tuesday.

She is a vegetarian, and there isn't anything green out there!  I keep telling her to hang on.

May 1st vs. July 4th

 

I've been growing sprouts. Too bad I can't give these to Fred!

Sadly, I am failing. I put the filter and the seeds into the bottom layer. The clear top level is supposed to drain into the opaque one. Whoopsie. I couldn't figure out why the water wasn't draining. 
 


Nutmeg went walkies to the daffodil garden. She was playing in the mud.

Cinnamon, much more cautious than his sister. He was watching from the deck. He checked her out carefully. 

A rest in the heated cat house. It's not actually plugged in. That is Cinnamon's ear, his head is upside down. The cats are happy to hunker down in the evenings.

📺 We are watching Season 6 of Astrid & Raphaelle. It is charming, and fairly non-gory! I am enjoying it.
Astrid Nielsen works in the library of the judicial police. She has Asperger's syndrome. With an incredible memory she excels at analyzing files of ongoing ...
📚 I am often in bed by 8:30 or 9, reading. More mysteries. There are 7 books in the Rockton series. Armstrong takes the main two characters, Casey and Eric, and moves them to a new camp in the Haven's Rock series. I quite like them. Casey's sister has autism. She works in the camp and is a doctor. 
This is the last published. Another, the final book in the series, is to be published in 2027.

    So much activity! What a delight to observe it. I’m an early to bed with a book girl too.

    Lovely looking sprouts. Hope Fred enjoys carrots whenever she again wakes up.

    When I saw your blog this morning, my mind immediately went to Fred and sure enough, there he was! You have so many critter friends visiting you, let's hope Mr. Coyote leaves them alone!

    We saw our first crocuses -- very tiny and slender and very few of them, but they were there.

    I loved Astrid and Raphaelle. There is a Brit version, too, which is quite faithful to the original, called "Patience" (name of lead, like in "Astrid.") What a fascinating character. Loved seeing your "gang" of critters!

    The UK being what it is, it has taken Astrid and reproduced it as Patience. It's pretty good. The British reproduction of the Belgian show Professor T is better... YAM xx

    Poor Fred! well soon enough there will be greens everywhere. I failed at sprouts, I think the contraption was too much for me. If I just throw seeds outside it works better?

    I don't blame Fred for going back to bed.

    Aw, poor Fred. Here's hoping you have some green soon.
    Sprouts, yeah. I tried again last year but kept forgetting them.
