Gramto6 April 3 Share April 3 (edited) 4,970 steps yesterday. Rather quiet day. Switching clothes and doing laundries of things that are getting put away for the season. Not sure what is on agenda for garage today as it is drizzly and cooler. Plus my friend usually needs a day to recoup from her day at the TRN. Still a lot to be done in the house so I'm sure I'll find things to do...

The ones that have already been fixed have had their left ears tips clipped off so it is easy to tell who has been fixed and who still needs to be done. The already fixed ones will stay in the garage cat house while the others will be fixed and returned to the garage. Once all the cats have been trapped and fixed everyone will be allowed outside again. There will be feeders and waterers, toys, climbing/playing areas poop boxes, coolers and boxes for them to hide and sleep in while living in garage. Once they are again out in the wild, a cat door will be installed in to the garage where they will eat/sleep/play whatever they choose. I won't have to have several feeding stations on the porches and have to worry about shoveling snow to clear the porches for feedings in the Winters. 3 1 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8331557
Gramto6 April 4 Share April 4 5,090 steps yesterday. Damp rainy weather is slowing us down on cat home painting, too humid. The LED overhead shop lights arrive today so if they come early enough, that may be today's project.They will make the painting much easier once installed. The time off has really helped my aches and pains get better. But now, I'd like to see it done so we can start the trapping again once the weather clears up, and hopefully catch all the ones that slipped by last time. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8333142

Gramto6 April 6 Share April 6 5,204 steps yesterday. Drizzled all day yesterday. I did some sanding of window sills in garage. Lights arrived late afternoon so my friend will install them today. Spent a lot of time shopping online for cat trees/scratchers for the garage. Man are the trees expensive for a decent one! And I want a couple at least! Made no decisions. Drizzly again today, supposedly it will be drying out some tomorrow leading to a fairly decent week next week. I hope so, I really want to get the garage done so the kitties can go there to get out of the weather! Then we have to figure out an entrance that the cats can access but not the skunks and raccoons!! Have to go out today to pick up my taxes at H&R Block.

Gramto6 April 15 Share April 15 6,060 steps yesterday. Ended up being another "rest" day. We both felt it was better to not push as much as we have been and take another day off. When the Fedex guy delivered some of my Chewy order on Friday he was looking at the cat house (he's a cat guy!), he saw some of the things I have set aside for the yard sale and said he wanted some of them!! Biggest one was the roll top desk! He has to figure out how to get it to his place though. I got sad news last evening. My friend/neighbor passed away on Saturday. I knew she was sick, she had confided in me she had cancer but asked I keep her secret. She was the friend that drove me to all my dr appointments after my bad fall in Dec. '23, while I was in the back brace. She also took me grocery shopping. She was a good friend and very sweet.

Got some chalkboard paint which will be fun for some of them. There is a Hobby Lobby in the mall by my dentist so will go there tomorrow to get fully supplied with paints and applicators. Not a place I would normally go these days, but new skills require new supplies... Will try a couple more stencils today and that is about it. Here is the small test one I did yesterday. It is the chalkboard paint and I kind of like the result: I have larger ones that will go around the windows and various places on the walls. A fun part of putting all this together!! What is cute about this one is the angle of the cat's head makes it look like the left ear is clipped, just like all the fixed cats have!

I had things to do that needed doing while I was in town.... 49° was the high yesterday, sunny with just a few gusts of wind. Nowadays, every time I write wind, I think of my friend I just lost, whose chosen name was Wind. Her graveside service was yesterday. I couldn't attend because of dentist appt (very difficult to reschedule) but they did record it I and watched before bedtime. Beautiful service. I didn't realize recording services for online viewing was a thing these days. I was glad to see the recording of the service of a member of my diabetes forum a few years ago, but thought that was a special circumstance as he was a popular opera singer. I was sad to watch my friend's service but it did appear to be mostly just family so I probably would have felt out of place.

But my friend hurt her arm yesterday so no work today. Still just lacking door and window. This is what it looks like now with the mesh up and walls all finished: This shot is from the car side, it shows the mesh the best. 4 5 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8354216
Gramto6 April 29 Share April 29 4,830 steps yesterday. Not much going on yesterday, my friend hurt her arm Saturday so couldn't come over yesterday. Today, if not better she will be going to dr. Probably won't be able to start trapping for another week. I did do a couple of stencils in the cat house, gathered garbage and did a laundry so had some low keyed exercise. It was probably a good thing for me too. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8354390
altopower April 30 Share April 30 @Gramto6, you are AMAZING! I've been gone for a while but just now caught up with your garage work as well as your steps, and I'm so impressed! Looking forward to seeing it finished :) 7 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8355021
Gramto6 April 30 Share April 30 (edited) 5,733 steps yesterday. Garbage up the road and a grocery run. No work on cat home yesterday, my friend's shoulder is really bothering her. Old injury from falling off a roof when she had her construction company. Rest and ice she says will fix her up in a few days. Can't say that the rest isn't good for me too, my hands and back are so sore the rest will do me well too. Just hoping the cats take a rest too!! 17 hours ago, altopower said: @Gramto6, you are AMAZING!

Thanks it has been a very hard project and both of us are feeling it. the end is near for at least to start trapping. The trims and final detailing can wait till later.

I've just been over my head busy with a project for my senior living community, where I'm chair of the dining committee. We have a new menu project going on and I designed all the menus without any experience, just a lot of time available. Not what we're serving, but the actual physical menus. Hit a big milestone this weekend. I'm now down NINETY (90) pounds! My BMI is down 16 points, and I keep changing sizes. It's a good problem to have, though, so no complaints :) 3 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8355549

Gramto6 May 1 Share May 1 5,467 steps yesterday. Quiet day, didn't do much. Scheduled appt with my Broker to sign some papers after my dentist appt tomorrow. Put together some things for cat home and did some browsing on Amazon. The break in work is helping my body that is for sure! 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8356196
Absolom May 1 Share May 1 I'm getting excited for the kitty home to be done to see how fast the trapping goes and how well the kitties do staying inside for a bit. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/111361-thrive-without-janelle-the-accountability-group/page/53/#findComment-8356226
