Get a cat they said. It will be fun they said. ACCKKK!!
Kat loves to chew on a straw when I have one in my Yeti cup so I have to watch him all the time. Yesterday he accidentally knocked over the water jug next to my computer. As luck would have it, even though there was a lid on the cup....just enough water splashed out onto my computer keyboard. <SCREAM>
Now my A, S, and D keys no longer work. As they say in computer lingo....they got fried. So sad!! Moral of the story is to never have any liquid near your computer as accidents eventually happen. Very EXPENSIVE accidents. Replacing the keyboard on an Acer machine is not feasible so I am now using a bluetooth keyboard. Somewhat inconvenient but at least it is an option without a huge monitary outlay of a new computer. <sigh>
I think Kat is now hiding from my wrath and despair as he's taking his nap up on top of the cupboards.
Mouse is not concerned and is sleeping peacefully.
In other Hepler family news, we bought a Roomba vacuum cleaner. It is more than just a cat toy as the thing actually works and does a great job on our new flooring. With two cats in the house, it will save me from my daily vacuum chores. From an App on Don's cell phone, he just has to say "Alexa, ask Roomba to start vacuuming". It is so kind of him to take over that job.
It's a good thing the little devils are so adorable.

Lots of "chores" to get done in preparation for our residents returning. Today they're having Dave's RV Washing Service to powerwash ALL the black folding chairs and racks so they'll be shiny clean and ready for our concerts.
Watch them in action:
Back behind the administration building, they're chopping up and replacing some of the cracked concrete. It will be replaced with nice green astro turf so should look quite nice.
I've noticed these little saga palms are being planted in several areas around the park. They should be more maintenace free than past choices.
Still working on getting all the palm trees trimmed. It must be quite a challenge in the woods by the statues.
This afternoon should be a fun event as we're having a "Blowout Sale" in the ballroom kitchen. They're cleaning out the frig and freezer of any leftover items from the summer. We get to purchase desserts by the slice to stock our home pantry. Should be fun to see what's left and to enjoy a quick snack with friends while we watch the action.

We're getting ready for the influx of residents and visitors. Sure would be nice if the border would open soon! Good luck to all of us.
