Day 1119: Sunny Thursday

[eve_prime]

I attended two meetings online today. The first was for the Oregon Bach Festival book club, which is reading… Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass. I’d been wondering why for months, and recently learned it’s because Ralph Vaughan Williams’ first symphony includes some of the poetry from it, and the OBF is planning to perform it this summer.

Later I attended part of my employer’s Scientist Retreat and gave a 5-minute update on everything I’m working on, which was fun. After that, I rested and read, etc., which were fine things to do! I had the idea that I wanted to read outside, since it was sunny, but even with a sweater on, a blanket wrapped around me, the usually-uncomfortably-warm socks J’s mom gave me last Christmas, and Oberon on my lap, it was still a bit too cold. I took a hot shower and switched to reading indoors!

Yes, still such a cool Spring! We had one warm day then it cooled off again. Such a nice thought to read outside though, I can't wait to be able to do that, maybe in May, LOL!

I did it again yesterday, which the cats thought was fun, since it had been at least six months since I'd given them a lap to sit in outdoors.

Let's see if this works:

It worked!
I can only post photos sent to my email address here. Is that what you did?

I went to the home page menu and found "Create" then "Upload Images" and "Choose Files" to let me find the one I wanted. Then "view all your images" let me see the link to use it. The link I got from "manage your images" was just for a thumbnail so I had to try it again. Confusing!

This is Oberon (black) and Azalyn (light-colored), both looking at Ambrose on the lawn. The lawnmower battery had run out before I got to the part of the lawn where Ambrose is sitting.

Their photo system is quite confusing here. That is why I just resize from my phone and email to that certain email address you get with a paid account. I can't even remember how I set it up!

Ahh, Ambrose was in the grass jungle eh? They are so pretty!

They certainly are pretty little cats.
