Guilt

After months of eating the expensive catfood we got for a dollar a box at Happ's, the stuff is now gone. It is not something we would ever dream of buying at regular prices. The stuff runs between $14-18 for a box of 12 pouches, and those ferals were eating more than a box per day. We would be spending more to feed cats than we spend on food for ourselves!

We feed them a good dry catfood, but finding a replacement wet food has been difficult. I am sure finding out what they won't eat. 

They began coming to the door to mew pitifully.

I bought two more 12 packs of cat food last weekend, different brands, and hallelujah! One of them was something that they all ate. 

So, yesterday, while I was out, I bought a 40 can case of it.

You guessed it. Today they were not so fond of it. 

Tim says, 'They'll eat when they get hungry enough."

I feel so guilty.

Tomorrow is No King Day. Tim and I will be there.  I feel no guilt about that. 

A friend posted that no Christian should be at one of these protests. Surprised me that she was one of those. Not everyone agreed with her. I pointed out, choosing my words very carefully, that many religious leaders of a wide variety of faiths felt it was putting their faith into action. Talking the talk is fine but sometimes it is required to walk the walk. 

She responded that behind these protests there were corrupt and evil forces at work, citing her experience at the Standing Rock protests where she was arrested.

I wonder where that idealistic woman went? She had such a passion about social justice. She firmly believed in roght and wrong. I didn't bother to say anything more, but it seems kind of sad to me. 

These protests are on track to be the biggest protest in our nation's history. Chicago and Portland are doing a fine job of nonviolent resistance to ICE. We will certainly support them.

I made wheat bread today. It has been a while but it turned out very nicely. First yeast bread of the season. I always wonder if I lost my knack. Nope. I still got it.

This has nothing to do with anything but it made me laugh:
