What have you done today? (Pt 2)

[midlifeaspie]

I disturbed a family of mice while placing posts for a fence.  The nest was right beside where I needed to dig the hole for the post, and I saw one of the adults run away as I was clearing the vegetation, and then saw a couple of babies crawl out of the nest.  They hadn't opened their eyes or grown fur yet and it was a cold, damp night, so I wrapped them in some polyester stuffing out of an old pillow to keep them warm (I use the stuff for filtering my aquariums) and gently put them back in the nest, where another couple of babies were lying.  A pair of adults came back to the nest to retrieve the babies and move them somewhere else, and I watched them make dozens of trips back to the nest while I was crouching just a couple of feet away with a head torch illuminating the area.

Once the babies had been evacuated, I dug the hole for the post and concreted it into position.  I left the pillow stuffing to give them some dry, warm bedding for their new nest.

Ha. Just got something you said a few days ago. That was slow.

Went to the next county over Local Union Hall to try to get a short call. Put money in the bank. Bought pastrami, Swiss cheese, bagels, Eggo waffles. Came home happy to be in, out of the rain, thunder and lightning.

More cleaning.

Set 4 chairs & a table (all trash picked last fall, except the $2.00 yard sale table) out by the highway with a big FREE! sign on them.

Mom & I used to peek through the curtains and time this...took 8 min...guy comes up in a tiny little Tracker and tries to cram all of it inside. He ended up coming back 10 min later for the chair & the table that wouldn't fit after surveying his roof twice and finally deciding that wouldn't work.

Sweet, thoughtful, and it must have been a great sight.

I woke up this morning being poked in the back.    Then went to work.  I came home and shut off my phone I think it's a Morrissey night.

[Queen Victoria]

took the PR to class, made lunch and dinner, went to warehouse store.

Dinner = Meatloaf Soup

2 cans French Onion Soup
1 can Tomato Soup
2 and 1/2 soup cans of water
1 can of mixed vegetables
sprinkle of italian seasoning
cooked rice
leftover meatloaf, cubed into however you want

Heat the stuff and add the rice at the end.  Fast, easy and relatively cheap
