Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Watcha been doing?

Our project last week: putting together a cat feeder.  OMG. The HH has a bad back and my fingers are stiff and shaky:) AND there were lots of screws and poor directions.

 

 

Got it almost put together and realized we'd put one of the interior sides on backwards and had to take it off and put it back on. Grrrr.

Finally. Frank got the window and Callie, one floor down,bars to keep the dog out.  Frank took to the change in routine immediately.  Callie, not so much. I think she's afraid of permanent incarceration. But we're getting there.
