We ordered a 14 lb whole turkey from Crowd Cow last week, which they shipped in 5 lb of dry ice. That would have been fine, except FedEx left it laying around their depot for a week, so it arrived totally defrosted, and we have to throw it out. 📦🦃

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 24 is “provision”. Keeping ducks and chickens requires a lot of provisions. 📷 #mbnov

Paladin approves of access to the couch in my office (and the fuzzy blanket I put on it for a cat nest). He’s never experienced me in this office; he was born a year after I moved downstairs. 🐈

Yesterday I moved back into my upstairs office, after being downstairs since October 2016. As a bonus, I now have another screen (as if I didn’t have plenty). Some leftover junk to tidy away still. Jenn has now moved to the downstairs desk (3rd pic, when empty). 💻🖥🖥

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 23 is “capture”. It’s fun when I see a cat on the front steps, and am able to capture an interesting photo of them — like this shot of Spud enjoying a good scratch. 📷🐈 #mbnov

After Rory lost a leg to osteosarcoma in 2015, and couldn’t navigate the stairs anymore, I moved from my upstairs office to a “temporary” desk in the parlor (2nd pic). Now that Jenn also works from home, I’m thinking about moving back up there; needs a bit of a clean out.
