Weekend Open Thread
Good morning, and welcome to the Caturday open thread. Today reader Tara O. shares this photo of Butch achieving enlightenment.
Good morning Everyone! Aw – thank you for posting my sweet Butchie, Mike. I woke up to find him on a fresh pile of laundry, because of course.
Its a beautiful day here in Philly, not too hot yet which is good, I need to go to the farmers market and then I’m coming home to do lots of cooking. Hopefully it will be a peaceful and uneventful Saturday.
Love to you all in this wonderful community.
Oh, he’s so handsome Mr. Butch is. He looks positively radiant. I think it will another quiet weekend here in SoCal. Weather has finally cooled off and we’ll be in the 70s. There’s a pow wow up on one of the reservations so we might go to that. I also have stuff to drop off at the charity shop, and a few other errands. Maybe painting and a little cooking/baking for the week. Have a good weekend all!
Could someone please ask Butch the answer to “what is the meaning of life?” before he’s distracted by a squirrel.
I’ve had a bit of an unsettling time health-wise. The dosage of the steroids I’m taking to treat autoimmune hepatitis has been reduced but to make up for this I’ve been prescribed another drug which seems to be having adverse side effects, particularly hair loss. During the past six weeks or so about a third of my crowning glory has parted company with me! I’m going for a bone density scan on Monday to discover if there are more underlying problems. The strange thing is that on the whole I feel better now than I have done since just before Christmas last year when the hepatitis flared up…
The meaning of life, the universe and everything is still 42. But I’ve been told the question as changed. 😉
😂
The purpose of Butch’s life is to eat, play with toys, snuggle with hoomin, have a safe, warm, and happy place to sleep, and play outside in nice weather. Doesn’t quite answer the question, but maybe it helps?
I’m glad you are feeling so much better, but I’m sorry to hear about your hair. My grandmother had a similar thing happen to her – medication made her hair fall out. She started taking Silica. Her hair came back thicker than ever and her fingernails also got stronger. It was just a powder she drank stirred in water every morning. I think it was over the counter.
Happy Caturday! I’ll take any wisdom Butch can share.
This week has been…a lot, newswise…but at least dogs were good.
Anyone else not getting the “notify me of follow-up comments” confirmation email?
Butch looks very enlightened indeed.
Not much going on here, it’s been a very quiet week. The only “exciting” thing we did was buying 2 new nice bird feeders for the back yard to replace the cheap plastic ones we had.
In other news the weather is getting very autumn like here and although it’s a bit early in the season some of the trees have started changing colour. But summer is not totally gone we’re suppose to get a few late hot days close to 29C/84F next week.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.
It’s not a riot, it’s an organized kerfuffle.
Greetings, fellow Cutetropolitans. And to you, too, handsome Butch.
A cool but sunny day here. Supposed to get a month’s worth of rain tomorrow, so I will be putting the deck away today. A bit early, but I will leave my chair and table out, so I can do my usual fall reading outside with apple slices and a mug of tea. Rain won’t stop me.
It’s been a week since Little Duckie went to the Rainbow Bridge, but I think she’s been talking to our local birds, because the tree outside my window is packed with tiny birds singing. I’m hoping that some will get comfortable enough with me that they will join me for seeds, peanuts and suet. Maybe even graham crackers, in Duckie’s honour.
I seem to have caught my first cold of the season, and I am NOT impressed. I felt bad enough yesterday to do a Covid test, but it was negative. Now I’m looking to find someone to give my cold to, because I’m such a generous person.
I’ll be spending the weekend finishing up some projects, and next week I can relax.
Have a great weekend, everyone. Hugs to everyone.
