    Brenda & Jolly,

    Don't know if it works, this isn't TNT, but I've redd that a deterrent -- a deer-terrent, har-har -- is to interplant with prickly-leaved plants like holly. They won't eat it.

      My big news is that I have no news. Not spending as much time sick as in years past, so I guess that's something.

      I acquired a pash for football a year ago. Surprised myself with how I went from zero to 60 so quick.

      My ideal job now would be team manager.

      No news can indeed be good news! Staying well is big news, even if it's just longer spells of wellness.

      I've noticed your increased interest in football! Hmmm .. team manager of a bunch of football players? Yeah, I think you could whip them into shape. Be fearless. If anything, they would learn to fear the wrath of Cats!

          We just got back from Hawaii. First real vacation in a couple of years. So good.

            Hi @brenda - I'm just thawing out from my first MN winter. Starting some spring projects... also just painted our kids' playroom today. This weekend I'll put some stuff on the walls and that'll be another room done...

              I'm about the same. Drowned a sack full of kittens this morning on my way to town to evict an old woman from her home. You know... nice friendly stuff...

                Horace, how are your leg and hand? You've had plenty of issues with both, and it's absolutely no fun to have pain in limbs that get used every day and all day.

                Things are getting better, thanks Brenda. I think I’m on the road back to a full recovery where I can start hiking again.

                Education is extremely important.

                        Wow! That's a big improvement. You can join 89th here and help him work on my house. You healed just in time. Xenon is back from his trip all rested and ready to work here, too. I can hardly wait!!

                          I might do it if I got paid in baked goods.

                              The first winter was fine. I like the cold, so it didn't bother me although I heard it was much colder than most winters. It seems like December through February is the true heart of winter with temps often in the -10s... but there are a number of really nice (and some, free) indoor fieldhouses, playgrounds, pools, etc. So no shortage of things to do.

                              When the kids get a tad older, it'll also be nice to go cross country skiing at some nearby parks that have miles of paths.

                              Anyway, now it's nice to be outside and I'll start doing some jogging-stroller runs... it's also nice to be outside before any mosquitos arrive, too! LOL
