Not the Best Plans

My favorite coffee shop spent the last year building a cover over the front patio, and it's delightful during summer and when it's raining. They also added curtains that can be closed to protect from the wind, but

1. The curtains are only attached at the top, and
2. They are solid dark fabric.

So this morning, when we had rain along with 25+ mph winds — which is growing more common as the years progress — the curtains blew straight into the patio. And when they weren't trying to smother people, they blocked all the light.

So... The coffee shop owner tried. But the patio really needs clear plastic curtains that are attached above and below.

Oh well. Maybe next winter.

Kitten Watch 2024

A mug shot from Steve MeowQueen. I tried to convince him he was in charge of getting his little sister to gain weight.

(Look at his lovely whiskers. Giorgio Furmani only wishes he had such style.)

I'm not panicking, you're panicking. Seriously, though, Kittyenne Westwood just needs to gain 40 grams in the next few days. That's absolutely possible.

Have I reached my 1700 word goal today?

Dangit, no.
