Simon sleeps in strange places


 

Simon sleeps in strange places
.... and rarely the same place twice.
He prefers being in the sun, or near a heat register, or warming his feet on a transformer... and often he likes to wedge his way under things.
He does have a small area that is His, where he sleeps at night.

 

Simon's Foot spa.

Simon wanted to go outside. I opened the door. It was cold. He turned around and headed for the fireplace.


Now if I could only teach him to flush.


For nearly an hour I searched but could not find the source of the random alarm sounding. Then I found Simon periodically pouncing on the "Test" button.  I guess he was trying to get my attention ?


"Simon's Space"... where he sleeps at night. Every morning when I clean up after him he looks up at me with a confused look like he's wondering ... "I wonder why he wants to save that stuff?".





Tuna Cat is a gentleman and would let Simon go in first.
Simon loves to spend time lounging around on the deck.


Just in from cold outside, Simon heads for the warm transformer.


Whenever I'm outside Simon lets me know he wants to come out too.
He usually IS outside with me ... he supervises all my projects (gets in my way~:<)


This is Tuna Cat's water. Simon does this just to irritate Tuna.



Just in from cold outside, Simon heads for the warm transformer.


If there is sunshine, Simon will find it.

Simon likes the heat register.

Simon is very patient while I'm waiting for someone to show up.


The trap was propped open. Simon HAD to investigate.


At the cabin, next to the woodstove.


Simon usually sleeps on the speedometer until he hears the remote unlock the doors, then he jumps up and trots over to his side.



Heat coming out from under the refrigerator.


Simon often likes to squeeze under things (he's not stuck).

Waiting to use the bathroom.




The back of the couch is Simon's favorite place to watch the TV news Unless he's laying on my chest (which he usually is).







Very unusual 2-headed Chicken.

150921 Very unusual 2-headed Chicken.
Actually, Sebrights are excellent mothers. This chick is 1 month old and very soon should be on it's own.
This breed is small, 1-1/3 pound, about the same as a good sized Pigeon.

Now I'm sure. Simon Pigeon can tell time.

Now I'm sure. Simon Pigeon can tell time.
For the last month or so, every night right around 10pm news time, Simon Pigeon comes looking for me so I can give him his good night hug and then put him to bed.
. . I always thought it was the TV news show that told him the time, but last night he came to find me several minutes before the 10pm news started.
. . . . . . . . . . . ??? How does he know?
Simon needs his hug. He pecks at my hands until I have both hands clasped over him, then he's happy.

150902 SD cards on Post-it-Note

150902 SD cards on Post-it-Note

A handy way to keep track of WHAT'S ON SD
cards and what size they are..
1) Write on Post-it-Note with sticky on bottom with sticky side down
2) Place SD card on sticky as shown (Gold tabs NOT on sticky part)
Place SD slightly above top of note for easy removal
3) Fold bottom half up and slightly above sticky part for
easy removal and so no sticky is showing.
4) After folding, the SD information will be on top, readable.
5) File like an index card file?
(I have engraved date purchased on each card like a "Serial Number", easy to identify contents that way)
