Jan. 30th, 2026 12:03 amToday I am grateful for:
Good sleep.
Feeling okay about declining TW's call without feeling the need to explain myself.
Changing cat litter and little tasks.
Went outside to do chores and enjoyed the mild temperatures.
I was able to take Wonder's blanket off, as well as gave her some time with Dandy.
Then I pulled out the snowshoes and broke a trail around the horse pasture. I haven't been walking there because of the snow accumulation since maybe November, but maybe I will if I can pack down a path with the snowshoes first.
By then my Sweetie was home. He left a bit early, since today was the last day on that site anyhow. He's not doing "new work", just more or less walking away from it.
He made supper, I had a quick bath, and we watched "Jane got a gun" that was kind of a western, and it was quite bad in spite of a fantastic cast and being rated fairly well on IMDB.
Just the kind of lazy writing where they should have shot the bad guy about fifteen different points in the plot, but didn't for one reason or another so he could just come torment them again. Lots of plot holes, like "if you were running away from a bad guy, why would you build your home right next to the town where the bad guy lives" and "how did the bad guy not know you lived there in the last five years?".
Then there's just the stuff that doesn't make sense, like making the protagonist a fur trader that lives in a desert, or why do they live there in the first place since there's no water, nothing for the horses to eat, can't grow food, can't raise cattle, and how did they build a house out of milled lumber and everything is made out of rails of wood when they live nowhere near trees and there's no railroad to town to bring lumber? There was a lot of frustrating things like that.
