Dec. 28th, 2020 09:10 amI ordered new saucepans even though I need new underwear somewhat more, on the theory that lack of new underwear isn't going to poison me. Old flaking nonstick saucepans might eventually. No idea when they might arrive, of course, but at least I ordered them. (Farberware stainless steel with glass lids. I cook by sight a fair bit and overcooked vegetables aren't my best favorite thing.)
Quirk has discovered the kitchen, and spent most of Saturday standing on her hind legs watching food TV out the kitchen window. Yesterday she spent most of the day in one of the kitchen chairs (probably having tired her legs out), and I moved her litterbox from the office into the pantry because she already knew Lily's was there and they've been using each other's anyway. And I really wanted to vacuum the office rug, because she wants to dig through the litterbox down to the earth's core, and sweeping the rug wasn't adequate. But I couldn't vacuum with Quirk in the room. I also moved her crunchies dish into the kitchen. She seems to be willing to eat pretty much anything, fish or poultry or the crunchies she came with (Hill's, which I'm weaning her off of because they're too expensive to be corn-based) or Lily's crunchies, and seems to be taking it all in stride digestion-wise. Thank goodness.
Yesterday was also Annual Shredding Day, since Quirk wasn't in the office. I shredded the 2019 utility bills (I keep them for a year, ever since the one time Eversource undercharged me for four months and then sent a massive bill, and I couldn't do anything about it because I'd thrown away the bills after I paid them) and Snip's insurance and vaccination records. I shredded a very old rabies tag by accident because it was taped to a piece of folded-over paper, but the shredder dealt with it quite well. I suppose since it will shred credit cards, I shouldn't have been surprised; rabies tags are thinner even though they're aluminum. But I should have been paying more attention to what I was shredding in the first place.
