Oct 14 - Comet

October 14

$6 Fast Food Lunch

$52 Target

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I didn't plan well.  Just noticed the cat food was getting low.  I should have added that to recent Target order.  So I did yet another Target order. 

For lunch I just wanted to get out of the office and have a treat.  

My shoes arrived and they actually fit.  Yay!

When I got home, I mentioned to MH that we should go for a walk.  We tend to walk most days when it is not too extreme hot/cold or when there isn't smoke.  It sounds like the smoke might move in this week, so will take what we can get.  

I hadn't even thought of it but once we got outside I told MH the comet was very visible around the same time the day before.  A little after sunset.  I can see why the comet was so bright from our neighborhood.  There is nothing to the west of us.  But unfortunately they put in a school (in recent years) with very bright lights.  We didn't see the comet at first, though venus was spectacular.  We walked a couple of blocks past the street lights and we thought we saw the comet.  So we walked down a dark bike path (not very far) and then got a better view.  

The moon was very bright and I wasn't really expecting to see anything.  The commet was amazing!  We will probably go out and try to see it again.  

Edited to add:  Tried again Friday (before the moon rise) but we could not see the comet.  It's fading quickly as it gets farther from the sun.

    You have a cat? I have been contemplating about finally getting a pet maybe. Most likely a cat or two, but I also like puppers. I don't know though. I also secretly dread the upkeep cost of pets, but is it really like unlimited real life online cat videos? That sounds amazing.

    The moon is indeed beautifully bright lately. Almost a little too bright actually.

    I've never lived without a cat. Even in college when we weren't supposed to have pets, both of my roommates had cats! I tell my hubby this when he tells me he wants to be done after this cat. I like the idea of the low-maintenance peace but it only lasted a few months after our last cat passed away. It's hard for me to imagine life without cats.
