My Office

I'm taking advantage of Dennis's absence this week to clean my office. So far, I got rid of all the catalogs (a lot of catalogs), read all my craft magazines, and handled all those miscellaneous pieces of paper that have been hanging around for weeks (months?) It's looking pretty good.

Herding Kittens

If you thought herding cats was hard, try photographing kittens. They are so fast! I did manage to get a few shots though.

This is Precious:

This is Precious and Cindy Crawford:

And this is Bubba:

Who's a girl?

 Yesterday Mom and I named the three female kittens. The calico was already named Cindy by the Mom-cat owner because kitty has a spot on her face that looks like a mole--like Cindy Crawford's. The all-grey cat we named Precious because she's so sweet. The third kitten we named Million Dollar Baby (Baby for short) because she was a real tufty--standing on her hind legs and batting her paws like a fighter.

Then, when we took the kittens for their shots, it turned out Million Dollar Baby was a boy. So we renamed him Bubba.

A second Power Link tower is going up. This one is  behind Eugenio's house.  The first one that went up is behind our house. Depressed, depressed, depressed.

Mom and I noticed the second tower when we were driving into the ranch after coming back from dinner (pizza) at Marichario's.

Meow, meow, meow

The kittens are very cute. 

Low Voltage

I didn't realize it until I tried to heat a cup of coffee in the microwave, but I guess something happened when we had the power outage and now we have a low voltage situation. We know from experience that this can cause damage to appliances and other equipment. We called SDG&E and they are now here working on the problem.

T.R.O.T.

Finally, a good day weather-wise for a trail ride. Joyce and I went to Laguna for our ride today. But first, the power went out while I was at the barn getting Doc ready, so I didn't know about it until I drove up to the gate and it didn't automatically open. Someone had to come down and open it manually with a key.

Just a small kink to an otherwise beautiful day. We rode out to the big lake (about 1 hr. 15 min.) and then rode back the long way. It seemed like a never ending trail because we were tired and a little stiff. Getting old, I guess.
