Freezing this morning

I waited until it warmed up to 25 degrees to take my morning walk today, and while Boulder itself had no snow yesterday, the high peaks are certainly covered! Banichi is talking to himself while he plays in the dressing room and Lovey is sitting on top of the cat tree watching Gimpy through the window. I did open the patio door to fill the feeders and put out peanuts, but the kits came right back inside with me. I think they need to get used to the idea that winter is coming!

My next pet-sitting job is this Sunday - I'll be with Smiley and Silver for 4 days in northwest Boulder. Their owner is willing to leave me her vehicle, but I had to tell her that I don't drive a stick shift, so she'll drive it to the airport. I now have pet jobs booked through February, as well as working on various genealogies...

Chris Matthews' response to Bill Maher's reply the other day made me laugh out loud!
Chris had asked where the McCain/Palin group got the information to call Obama a socialist and/or a communist. Maher replied that it came from Joe the Plumber's crack. Of course, they were on opposite coasts and their was a time lag between their hearing each other's responses - but I thought Chris was going to choke; then he asked Maher what he meant, and Maher said, "You know about plumbers' and their cracks.... Let's not go there."
