    :( ... but not sure yet.

    Gonna pick a half dozen tomatoes and take them over to the elderly lady... and
    find out if what I saw/heard "means" what I think.

    Leaving it vague... just for Atty. I know how he enjoys that.

    What I saw/heard:
    ...her big grey-tiger tom sleeping on her back lawn
    ...crazy cat lady came and picked him up
    ...with much vocal protest from the cat
    ...someone came out of the house with cat carrier, into car, drive away.

    I thought: He was being taken to a new home... it was his meowing that got to
    me... like "noooo!, leave me alone, let me live here".

    Actuality: one of his back legs is injured in some way and was being transported
    to an emergency animal clinic (Sunday, naturally, at inflated cost).

    So, still a :( . But I thought he was being uprooted from his home ( :( ) and that
    the old lady was giving up one of her kids ( :( ).

    I'll keep an eye out for his return.

    Such drama.

    Glad he's being taken care of Bear, that's the most important thing :)

    Yes.

    My nosy-get-off-my-lawn senior self knew "something" was out of order.

    A life... need to get one (some may say). But at least I'd be the first to know
    if someone's house was burning down. NOW... depending on WHOSE house...
    I'd either call 911 or get wieners to roast. Which neighbour are YOU?!?!

    didn't you just get all your planters out? :?:

    It seems that way, yes. But we are now less than a month away from Labour Day.

    ^ is "Fall" around these parts.

    Kale, too... but have never been a fan of those.

    The speed of time is sick. Truly.

    Guess I'd be the one calling 911 ...
    I've seen a neighbors home burn down, a sad thing indeed :(
