Jan/3/12.. Tuesday . Now what to do? Lost Cat?!?!!???

Fed the cats when I clicked on the coffee pot this morning, so I KNOW both of them were here.  However I just found Basset's break away safety collar in the hallway. But where da hell is she!????   Have called her several times, but she's playing typical cat and not answering me . BITCH!!!

I could shake the treats bag but  that would get them both and I just want her right now.
Oh well, she'll show up after a bit and I'll re-harness  her then.

Sort of cold out this morning when I first looked, 25 out. But is warming pretty quick.

25.9 °F ( 31°F here) 6:27AM..
Clear   
Windchill:     26 °F
Humidity:     72%
Wind:     Calm
Wind Gust:     0.0 mph
Visibility:     10.0 miles
Dew Point:     18 °F
Pressure:     30.54 in (Steady)

Today: Sunny, with a high near 57. South wind 5 to 10 mph increasing to between 15 and 20 mph. Winds could gust as high as 25 mph.

IF the wind lays later it may warm enough that I could get out and knock down some of the winter grass that has come up.  IF I knock it down now, by spring time it should have made good mulch huh?
What am I thinking? !!! Gonna be so dry again this summer nuthing gonna grow anyway cause we in this serious drought!!

I went over on Google Earth, which is free btw. And looked back at what historical shots are available for my location.  When you load it . Put in your address ( or any addresss). then when the imagine comes up Look down lower left corner and in small letters you see "Imagery Date xx\xx\xxxx". Click on that and a pop up window till open and you can use the slide bar and go back in time. Some of the history shots aren't great but sort of cool to look at.

One of my former addresses I did that on and up until the year I bought it, it was all totally undeveloped. I was the first resident in that particular house.!!
What I'd pay money to see next is a LIVE shot on GE!!!!   But that ain't gonna happen
 cause I don't have CIA or FBI clearance. :-)

Windy Bob made a comment about my no-see-em critter picture  here that I posted yesterday. That don't make sense cause I ain't go no fruit here. :-)
 

Oh well, just what I was thinking on this early early Tuesday morning.

Gonna get another cuppa and go do some looking to see if I can make my Credit Union reports online  print me  the paid out statement on my regular bills monthly for last year.  Just playing around and too lazy to get out an adding machine.  I never spend monthly what I take in, just want to see  what I pay out each month.  Guess I could use their online itemized thingie but would have to go through and set what each payment was for, food,gas, utilities, etc etc.
Can you tell I'm bored this morning. :-)

More coffee, and make a stab at straightening the kitchen.  BBL

BTW, all over the news this morning about the Iowa  Caucus. What the hell is a caucus and why is it sooo dammed important?  A little research and turns out it ain't diddley!! And don't mean nuthing!!  In fact after reading this account here, it ain't nuthing but a bunch of bored people getting together and BSing.

Taking a lead from Bob about what my flying critters may be , I did a search for fruit flies.  May well be what they are, Link . there is a suggestion for a simple trap so I'm gonna  set one out. Will let you know how it works.

Well, afternoon 2PM update  Heard from the neighbor down the street that a crew was out filling in our old sewer plant. So I JUST had to go see.  Yep sure are. Already pumped it out and in the process of filing it in.

That one on the left is the ole concrete main tanks all pumped out and empty and being filled in.
That "lake" is where the processed water drains into. They will breach the dam and let that run off into the natural creek.   Eventually that whole are will be level  again. 
Surprisingly there is not much odor emitting from the area.

Guess I should get off, expecting a guy to come by later.
