Weird Stuff...

Yeah, don't say anything about me being back so soon. Ha! 

Here are some weird things...

1. Smelling something that was like "almost" overbaked food in our bedroom. It was not from our house. We didn't use the oven and K4 didn't either. It only smelled in our bedroom. Our window was shut. That's not the first time we've had a strange smell in our room, but it was very powerful this time. Usually it's a dryer, or the smell of cigarette smoke, a few times it's been bacon. I just don't get it though. The house next door really doesn't have windows on our side. It's weird. 

2. Weird bugs. The Spotted Lantern Flies are bad enough. I mean, they are everywhere! It's hard to sit on the back porch in the evening without getting dive bombed and we can't park our car under the tree out back because it becomes covered in their pee. No. That's not an exaggeration. It rains out of the tree. The bushes are shiny with it. But now! Now I found out that we have a "monkey slug" in our area. No kidding. It turns into a Hag Moth. And it is the scariest looking creepy thing I've ever seen! Google it! 

3. Noises. The other morning That Man got up and said it sounded like there was a chicken in our neighbor's yard. Not the rooster that crows all day long every single day, but a clucking chicken. Also, the Blue Jays have started mimicking the hawk. Which freaks out the squirrels, but I kind of think they're doing it on purpose so they can gather all of the nuts? 

4. Cats. I think I've talked about how weird our cats are with water. Especially our oldest boy, Max. He's the one we found abandoned in the back yard. He had fleas really bad, therefore he received a lot of baths. I think that's why he loves water so much. Bath time made him feel better, plus he got cuddles afterwards. (Not that he likes cuddles now, but that's a different story) Every morning we turn the faucet on to a trickle. Instant cat magnet. They all hang out there, but it's mainly Max. A few months ago we had to get a new faucet and this one has the sprayer built into the main faucet. Just a few days ago, we started turning the sprayer part on for them instead of the regular one. Lordy. He loves it. He soaks himself and is the happiest boy. 

Okay. I think that's enough. I know there's a ton more weird stuff, but I'm not getting anything done this way. 

Behave!
