Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taking a break, cats fed & watered, fuel for the gen poured in the machine , oil added, big honkin litter box dragged up to the back door.\u00a0 That is as far as I got.<\/p>\n

Sitting in my woodwork shop, huffing and puffing. The litter box beside me. In a few minutes it will be dragged outside. Just waiting for my heart to stop pounding and my breath to catchup.<\/p>\n

After that, start the gen, refill the box, make coffee. If I survive.

The gen needs running today, tommorrow a blizzard, or at least blowing snow.<\/p>\n

Gotta go. Breath caught up. One big litter box done. I thought I would be smart and empty two smaller oones into the big one.<\/p>\n

Ya not so smart, the two smaller ones filled the big one. So tomorrow, I will be moving a bigger one again.<\/p>\n

The two littler ones are refilled with fresh litter, the big one got a top coat of fresh litter. I am boiling water for coffee. Vitamins, breakfast after that.<\/p>\n

Man, my body is broken, everything hurts. I will need to be horizontal for a few hours. I am pretty sure I just finished a round with Covid. Suddenly my sense of smell worked yesterday and the day before.<\/p>\n

I didn’t enjoy that, and that is the reason my litter boxes are getting done. They would have been done anyways. The sense of smell returning made it more urgent.<\/p>\n
