On this somewhat average day, we are celebrating - we paid off our house! ๐ŸŽ‰ We bought it in 2005 and had a 30-year mortgage at 6% at that point, but refinanced to a 15-year mortgage at 3.25% in 2012. We accelerated our payments a bit over the last few years and got the balance down to under $5K, so we wrote a check for the remainder today. ๐Ÿก๐Ÿงพโœ…

At first, beautiful Mildred was not too excited about the new siblings we adopted as older kittens last June, but she has since warmed up to them quite a bit, so I get to capture cute moments like her naps next to Joey or her hangouts with Phoebe (I love when theyโ€™re together - calico powers unite!). ๐Ÿ˜บ

@publickovacs Yep - weโ€™re in MO, too. Thankfully, only one firework went off around us, but there are a lot of pyros in our area, so we were surprised. Our cats hate it, too.

@opie We loved that show and have been following ever since. I missed the match today, but have caught a few that have been televised/streamed in the US. Itโ€™s such a feel-good story and Ryan and Rob are so damn funny and likeable. Canโ€™t wait for season 2!

Amazon is discontinuing the Amazon Smile program, which supports small charities. While the amount paid to the charities is small it has a hugh impact for many. This is a terrible decision. Please write to the CEO and ask him to reconsider.

@JPSCHWEIZER63 Awe! So handsome!! ๐Ÿ˜ป Roscoe is one of our younger cats. He will be 4 in May. We are down to just 2 remaining senior kitties - Vincent is 17 and Bryan will be 17 in March. We love them all so much.

@JeSsA Iโ€™m so sorry for your loss! ๐Ÿ˜ฟ Thinking of you.

@Halcyon Thank you!! We think so, too. Heโ€™s been with us since fall 2006 and will be 17 in March. ๐Ÿ˜บ

Fun Citrus Bowl win over Purdue today - 63-7!! ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ˜บ

I havenโ€™t done a post about the books Iโ€™ve been reading in a while. Since that time, I finished 5 more, bringing my total to 13 for 2022. Thatโ€™s not quite as many as in 2021, but I had phases where I wasnโ€™t reading as often, until December, when I finished 3 books. These final 5 were enjoyable for different reasons, but I forgot how much faster I read fiction than non-fiction until the last couple of days, which is all it took to read Station Eleven. ๐Ÿ˜บ
