Inventory Saturday Plans

                                                            I N V E N T O R Y

I had hoped to take a count of how many of my books are in the house, my car, and elsewhere. Last night I counted what's in the house. I didn't check my car because I'm still wearing my lavender cat nightshirt and it's almost 7 PM. (This means I did not check for mail either.)

I have to look at my Liberty spreadsheet because I left multiple copies of my first book (Liberty's Scrapbook) in two Four Oak stores years ago. Neither proprietor has contacted me. I may as well go back and retrieve them. But not today (the nightgown thing).

Big plans tomorrow in Selma... check out the Yard Sale to benefit all the Johnston County Active Aging Centers which goes until 2 PM.

Now, stop it, girl!

I've been in the office for several hours, working to complete my AARP Safe Driver Test. Handing in the Certificate of Completion will (hopefully) make a difference on my car insurance bill. The test I took years ago has expired. Testers are warned that ihe online course takes four hours to complete. 

My butt sure feels like I've put in the time, but I'm only 60% done. 

Anyway . . . just in case I might doze off . . .

Tulip jumped up on the same rolling table - with intention - and crashed it to the floor two more times!

She also tried to dump my cup of pencils, but I caught it in time.

Jeepers, that girl!!!

Two paper shredders

Always eager to be near me, Tulip jumped off the mobile tray table in the office to join me in the bathroom. The table fell over with a loud CRASH, scaring my cat away. 

The black towel shown below had been on top of miscellaneous paperwork. That's my usual go-to to prevent Tulip from eating papers. 

I already have an electric shredder under #1. Guess you could say that Tulip is my alternate shredder (#2).

It took a few minutes before Tulip relaxed enough to return to the scene of the incident.

Little Missy is Up to Mischief

I tried to be patient with Tulip, but she has these tendencies...

  • to park her butt on the printer beside me

  • to investigate papers I've laid around (fresh off the printer - yum!)
    • to crinkle them, or possibly taste test them

  • to upend my Crowley pencil holder, raining most of its contents behind the file cabinet
    • No, I am not going to retrieve the bunch that fell to the floor. Not today.

Another Month is Gone

Where did August go? 

It was such a scorchingly hot 31 days. This month started out by continuing with this icky-sticky weather pattern. 

The following songs come to mind:

  • Summer in the City
  • Heat Wave
  • See You in September
  • The Autumn Leaves
What seasonal songs do you associate with autumn?
