my little Christmas tree with a lot of Christmas cheer right next to it
It’s been two and a half years since my last Random Leakage post. Lot of things have changed since then.
Christmas Tree
This is the second Christmas that I have been on my own. The little tree has been with me now for some years. It used to be an extra tree in the house I lived in with my then wife. Now it’s my main tree. I have some ornaments that have been with me for many years that remind me of my love for penguins. It is the closest I can get to having some type of Christmas spirit. So much has changed with 95% of family that no longer are part of my life. Same with some friends. Not to be a Scrooge, but it’s difficult.
Forrest
Forrest, the feral cat that adopted me many years ago, turned 7 at the end of October. She is on this crazy life journey with me and it’s nice to have her along. She can be annoying in the morning with her eating schedule but once she finds one of the many spots she has in this apartment to go sleep, as long as I don’t distract her, she leaves me alone until around 5pm.
I know she misses not having a yard to go out to. I have a small patio that she likes to go out for a few mins until someone walks by, as it’s right next to the carports here in the apartment complex I live at. Now we just get through winter and spring and it will be summer again.
And that’s a wrap on the Random.
