1. Instagram Reel
This was too good not to share. Click on the photo to see what happened.
2. Bean Update
The bean plants are starting to look bedraggled.
But they are still trying.
3. Propane Update
They were supposed to come up by yesterday, but that didn’t happen. So they put us back in the queue and we may be scheduled again in 3-5 days.

I’ve seen a number of small animals have that happen…they are usually going outdoors but confronted by I.guess a snow drift…so they assume just walk into it….soon back indoors!!@
Oh not in real time but captured on a video.
The last time I got caught out by a snow drift, was in tge 60s. We had gone fir walk and no one realised that ditch was just there. I fell down, as did 2 others…snow
Yes, snow can be tricky. Andy ended up in a ditch more than once while driving.
…we all begin to look bedraggled sooner or later.
Yes, that’s why Andy and I don’t look in a mirror. 🙂
This is such a cute meme. Made me laugh thinking about the cat and how troubled it must have been to not reach the birds. Sorry about your propane..hopefully they can quickly get it out there before things freeze.
I love the little puff of snow at the end of the reel. 🙂
That’s funny! We were supposed to get propane yesterday, we are in the red on the tank gauge. I know I shouldn’t trust the monitoring.
Ours isn’t at a dangerous level so we can afford to be patient. We were hoping to avoid the locked Forest Service gate.
oh no, little bean plants, we wanted to see your beans grow.. maybe just to cold outside that sunny window. and a double on no on another missed delivery…
I didn’t expect the plants to last this long. I was curious to see what would happen.
Poor beans just can’t get enough sunlight this time of year. Do you have a grow light? That would help.
And the cat, it’s AI. I’m tired of AI videos already. Just when you think it’s too cute, turns out it is too cute.
This is the time of year hat the window sill gets the most direct light because of the angle of the sun. I didn’t expect the bean plants to live this long.
That cat video is hilarious! I had to share it with Dave. Thanks for posting it.
🙂
Oh my gosh, the cat video is hilarious!!! So frustrating about the propane people! They should make an effort to come sooner since the entire thing is their fault to begin with.
It’s a big company and they aren’t set up for cases like ours.
Yikes, don’t mess with the snow birds!
🙂
Oh the cat video was too funny. Thanks for the laugh. I’m rooting for the bean plant. It’s a good thing you aren’t up there on the land freezing waiting for that propane delivery.
Yes. 🙂
Not only embarrassed, but chuffed someone was watching! Lololol.
🙂
OMG, that is really something about the cat. Sorry your are having issues with the bean plants and also with the propane. Take care.
