This morning’s observation: Cats do not care about the end of daylight-saving time. Cats want their breakfast. They want it NOW. So, get up, lazy human, and feed them.
This week was, of course, Halloween. And this year, I’m excited to report that we had many, many trick-or-treaters! I always put out a table by the Little Free Library since the dogs lose their minds over the doorbell and people coming up the walk. This setup makes it easier for everyone, even if I don’t get to see all the costumes.
When I went out later in the evening to check on the candy, this is what I found.
Halloween achievement unlocked!
We also had the city’s book and pie sale this week, where they sell … books and pie (and sloppy joes). I donate books every year, but I’ve never actually been. The sale always ends before I was done with work, but not this year. So I headed on over and bought some books (not that I needed any) and a piece of pie. Not a bad way to round out October. (Well, minus the cat.)
Writing Wrongs 
A book sale AND a pie sale? All you need is a cup of coffee, and you’ve got a perfect afternoon ahead of you.
Nice work on the Halloween treats — I always hated having them linger around the house afterwards.
And good luck with the cats! Can they be trained, or can you delay a little bit more each morning until they’re more in synch with your household schedule? I suppose it may be easier all around simply to adjust yourself to them…
