Miscellaneous nonsense.

.

A portrait of His Royal Highness.

.

.

Cats are such regal creatures.

.

.

I did not know.

And honestly, I wish I still didn’t.

.

.

Sunrise.

.

.

Proof that sometimes it is worth getting up early.

.

.

Quintessential Maine.

🤣

.

.

I bought Lord Dudley Mountcatten a fleece pad because he’s always looking for warmth.

He found part of it…

.

.

While antique shopping with the husband recently, I realized our woodchucks are just phoning it in. None of ours bring me flowers.

.

.

Yes.

This (slightly used) stripper pole was for sale.

No.

We didn’t purchase it.

🥴

.

Oh, the things you find when thrifting.

.

A friend and I spent the day thrifting recently… which is always good for a laugh.

.

.

These are definitely not bunion friendly.

.

.

What the…

What?

.

.

There will be no cooking in our garage. Gourmet, or otherwise.

.

.

Mark, this one’s for you.

Hide your treasure here. No one will ever want to open it except you.

😉

.

.

I’m at a loss with this one.

Anyone want to guess what it could have been?

The price was $1.99, if that helps.

🥴

Maps

.

Because everyone needs more maps.

.

.

Maine is clearly Team Cat.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten approves.

.

.

Well done Colorado.

Though the fact that there’s a CDC Surveillance System tracking these stats has me a bit worried.

.

.

How do you say pecan?

I’m in a green area but pronounce it more like the blue people do.

.

.

This definitely puts it in perspective.

.

.

Poetry in Stephen King country?

I call foul.

.

.

Maine does indeed celebrate Patriot’s Day.

.

.

If they’re red, I’m doomed.

But we feed the greys well and could probably survive the squirrel apocalypse.

.

He really needs to stop going to the dump.

.

My husband had to take a few things to the dump recently, and you know what happens when he does that.

Our “dump” is more of a recycling center… complete with a gift shop where everything is free, and there in lies the problem.

.

.

He came home with a table and chairs.

.

.

Do we need a table and chairs from the dump?

We do not.

.

.

But my husband couldn’t resist bringing it home and fixing it up to sell.

.

.

He cleaned, he polished, he tightened, he glued.

.

.

I told him to recover the horrible (plastic? vinyl?) seats but that was a bridge too far.

.

.

So now there’s a table and chair set clogging up the man cave/Barn Mahal.

.

.

Sigh…

🥴

.

Critters

.

The temperatures are dropping in Maine and our backyard visitors are feeling it.

.

.

They’re also probably feeling like they’re being watched…

.

.

Because they are.

Quite regularly.

.

.

I saw this and thought, damn. Our raccoons are total slackers.

.

.

Seriously, all ours do is eat and poo… and occasionally knock over the bird bath.

.

.

We don’t have kids, so I’d better get to work on our trash pandas.

.

.

Sunrise…

With cat.

.

.

Squirrel, defying gravity.

.

.

Yes, you.

.

.

Our one little opossum, who only shows up at night.

.

What I’m watching.

.

My husband falls asleep during every episode…

.

.

But I never miss a Ken Burns documentary. And while this one is epic in many ways, I have to admit there are a few too many battle sequences and not enough gripping personal stories to keep viewers riveted. His Civil War masterpiece set the bar very high.

.

.

There was so much buzz about this movie I had to watch. Unfortunately that was two hours of my life I’ll never get back.

It was horrible. Hard pass.

And just when I thought that was the worst movie I could find…

.

.

Holy hell.

I read the buzz about this being a treatise on beauty and the fight against aging so I was not expecting the stupidest, most ridiculous, literally laughable turn this one took. Hollywood really has lost its mind.

Thankfully some of my favorite series have returned to save the day.

.

.

The Mayor has his hands full this season with a brother on the wrong side of the bars and a crooked warden running the prison. This show is raw, violent and often times hard to watch… but I’m here for it.

.

.

The Morning Show has been a consistently superior program and this season does not disappoint. Well cast, well acted…. there’s never a dull moment.

.

.

Landman rocks. I never thought I would be the least bit interested in the down and dirty world of oil production but this powerhouse show makes you sit up and pay attention. Season one was amazing, but this year they added Sam Elliot and Andy Garcia.

Need I say more?

.

.

Never having been a Stallone fan, I was surprised how much I liked Tulsa King when it first started. But I have to admit the new season is leaving me a bit cold. I can’t really explain why, it just seems a little off and rapidly approaching campy.

.

.

My husband stumbled on this sweet, feel good movie the other day. Based on a true story, if you’re an animal lover?

You’ll smile… and cry. I guarantee it.

.

Random

.

If you’re a squirrel on our property, you may feel like you’re being watched.

And if it’s not me with a camera?

It’s His Lordship.

.

.

Who keeps a close eye on the visitors.

.

.

May it rest in peace.

I loved MTV back in the day and spent many happy hours singing along with videos as I ironed my husband’s Marine Corps uniforms.

The end of an era, that.

.

.

I always know when the bird feeders are running low.

.

.

The avian protesters are noisy.

.

.

Yes.

That’s why I do it.

.

.

Husband photographing a sunrise.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten wondering why.

.

.

Damn it.

Now I’m going to have start counting corn.
