BAD NEWS FOR KITTY CATS

I was having some happy-cat-box play.  

See ... isn't this the kinda sorta thing we kitties love to do?

When I heard mine Mommy say ... "enjoy it while you can, Juney girl ... listen to this!  
A business story from this mornings Washington Post ... and she read it to me ... "

Cardboard boxes power the consumer economy. 

They not only bring joy in the form of online shopping purchases, 

they are literally how retailers move goods. 

When cardboard box production slows, 

it could be a sign that people are expected to buy less in coming months. 

And cardboard box production is down.

Oh no, what's a kitty to do?

OUR MORNING ROUTINE

It's still dark outside, the days are getting longer.  And cooler.  
I'm under the table, looking up at mine Mommy while she sips on her coffee, her second cup.  
I've already finished my breakfast and had some fresh water.  
Now I just wait for her to finish ~ it's a quiet time for us.  

She reads a little news on her phone, I think she thinks about the day ahead, sometimes she talks, er, meows to me.  

She says she thinks most people probably have a morning routine.  

I know I do, and the next part of my routine will be when she gets up from the table ~ 

when our quiet time is over, the city lights will begin to turn off, the sun will begin to rise up over the harbor, 

I will hear the birds begin to squawk as they fly off the church domes where they have slept during the night ~ 

I'll see those things she calls "cars" begin to park on that rooftop garage

 so all those people can go to work in the big tall buildings around us ~ 

once again, the world wakes up and starts all over.  

Mine Mommy gets up from the table to wash by breakfast bowl and her coffee cup, and me?  

Well, it is time to get out from under the table, curl up in my polka dot chair and have that morning nap.  

That is our morning routine.

HAPPY DAY TO ALL OUR CANADIAN FRIENDS

as they celebrate THANKSGIVING

"we are thankful you are our friends"

This morning, at 5:00 a.m Eastern time, it was a privilege to listen to

Jorgen Frydnes, chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee announce the

2025 Nobel Peace Price Winner. 

MARIA CORINA MACHADO

VENEZUELA

As every aspect of democracy is under threat and attack in our own country,
every day, I would encourage everyone to listen to Mr. Frydnes' words,
foretelling in detail the future we will have if there are not those
among us, many and many more, who will stand up, come forth and
fight with courage no matter how difficult it may be, no matter how dangerous
it may be, no matter how long it takes.

He was speaking to each and every one of us ...
was anyone listening?
