Oh, autumn in Chicago. Friday afternoon, 50 degrees F and rain forecast for this evening. Skip ahead to Sunday evening, 36 degrees with 3 to 6 inches of snow predicted. Just in time for Monday morning rush. I don't like driving in the snow!

Be safe, Elyse!
We are getting cold rain right now, it's about 35 degrees. I wouldn't mind some snow.

First, it's almost impossible to find well fitting socks.
Second, to make it worse, every pair I buy, is tied together with those annoying little plastic thingy tabs.
I stocked up on socks today, three sets with each two or tree pairs.
When I got home, I took a deep breath, got a pair of scissors and sat down. I started to cut the plastic tabs, very carefully, to separate the socks. Each tab was entangled in the sock fibers, as to annoy me even further.
One set had tabs on the toes, heels and top!!!
I bet it was faster to manufacture the socks than untangling them! Is this supposed to discourage shoplifters? Or potential customers?
Those socks better be the most perfect fitting socks ever!!!

Try livening in a home with a beloved but slightly demented Golden/Poodle who insists socks are to be eaten. She eats the toes out of my socks if she can get them, and the heels from Kermit's socks!

I am thankful for PT

I am also grateful for Pet Talk too! Are pointsettias really toxic for cats? I never get one because I always get conflicting information. I also wonder why Lily bit out me out of the blue yesterday. It was really deep and once she dug her fangs in she shook her head and let go. Big, bloody teeth marks??? First time for everything, I'm sure I'll never know. Lily has her reasons, no doubt. 🤔🙁

They are only mildly toxic, not as dangerous as we used to be told. Here's a good explanation: https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/poison/poinsettia/

And why did Lily bite? Because she's a Kat - all the reason you need!
