RE: Today's Daily Drawing: Puss my Cat and a Busy Day at my cottage.

I am undubiably impressed with you hobbling along behind the pushmower. Very perserverent of you for sure. I'm trying a whole lot of new words here, hope they don't throw you for the perverbial loop.
Your photo is quite lovely, of the birds on spit rock. Very colorful and SO blue and green. Impressive. Plus the birds are cool too.
Puss looks like a perfect subject, not exactly in high-motion, and easy to get 'down' on paper under glass. Mony, on the other hand, looks like a real mover. And shaker, but only when done piddling on your stuff. Reminds me of some cats I know.
Hope you are on the mend, and that you get some good customers in your houses. That must make it a whole lot easier.
Well, dinner is getting overdone, so I must go. Have a nice night. Though you are probably already horizontal and working quietly on tomorrow getting here.

If I hadn't treated myself to a new 'toy' this Spring, I wouldn't have been able to mow. We lost our yard man for the place last year and then @winstonalden stepped in and helped me, as he was a 'work at home' individual like me (before his dream city job) so this year it was either find someone reputable and also cost effective (hard in my area in Summer) or do it myself. I bought an very small 23 lb electric non cord battery mower, It is a dream!

I joke it's like hoovering the lawn more than mowing. It catches the clippings so I do have to stop to empty it, but my bamboo there is LOVING it. I read that grass clipping mulched directly on them increases their vigor and as I'm trying to make a bamboo mini forest, huzzah!

Monty has always been a character, but he is getting so old. He used to wander off onto the beach alone and he'd eat fiddler crabs (the tiny little fellows) now he needs me to get up and down the steps to the beach, old age. However he still treats like anything vertical as his personal watering post including chair and table legs in Toad Hall, wretched little creature, but we love him all the same.

I hope you enjoyed dinner, I am waiting to smell coffee from the kitchen so I can have a morning cuppa.
