caturday oct 24 2020

Luna is sooooo in the dog house. She peed inside the coat closet, where l also store the ironing board and vacuum cleaner and OMG what a stench. Vacuum bits have now been washed, coats spritzed with azahar-bergamot water, closet floor and walls scrubbed and bleached, and the closet is airing out.

The culprit is presently hiding under the sofa and knows exactly what she did. No dinner for her tonight! (well l say that but will probably give in to those big blue eyes). And yes l know that cushion also needs cleaning. So did the cat litter box this morning. Which is why l think Luna protested today (she’s done it before, but still). It’s presently a stand off, meanwhile going to get a lock for that closet door.

a safe place

Sevilla, along with Córdoba and Jaén, is getting hit with the same new restrictions that Madrid and Granada had imposed on them a couple of weeks ago.

Storm Bárbara is here! Apparently we will be hit with high winds and heavy rainfall over the next few days. There is already reported flooding in Huelva. Good thing I have the winter duvet freshly cleaned so I can cosy up with the cats and stay dry inside. Also good thing I decided to self-isolate this week.
