tl;dr Just a general update about me with 8 subjects for #FediBusyBodies... lol🤭

1) #PaulsYard and #PaulsGarden is coming along. As far as production goes, this year will probably be a bust. Fall planting and early 2027 spring planting will hopefully result in a very productive year next year. Still have some work to do, like irrigation, but it will come in the fall and winter. (If we save $$)

2/ Still haven't got the place feeling like "my space" after we had to clear most of the house out for the floor replacement.

3/ Penny is doing fine from her Widow maker heart attack. Still has limitations but she survived it and is making the best out of the limitations. August will be two years already. The #Fediverse helped me greatly to get through it. The time she was in the hospital I was never alone because of you folks and Hashtag game players.❤️

4/ My recent Spinal Baclofen Pump replacement surgery went smoothly, pain minimum, and no sign of infection a week in. My overall health is stable but there has been some progression in my Parkinson's plus, Multiple System Atrophy, but not at the speed that is average. My progression is way slower and they are trying to figure out why to see if they can replicate it for other people with it.

5/ Taking care remotely of an 85-year-old aunt is a hard thing to do and we are preparing for her now to move in here at some point. We are finishing the new room from #PaulsRoof into a suite for her. Two 180 miles round trips per week in the summer is taking its toll on me.

6/ #SissyCat still won't accept #MillieCat into the family and a few months in, we are at our wits end. Sissy's overall demeanor has change.

7/ Got my self-hosting home lab setup with some #FediFriends help. Got a lot of work to do still but I already migrated MS OneDrive and Google Drive over to it. So the degoogling will be done

8/ Knock on wood, but there seems to be a truce in effect in #PAulsRaccoonWar. For whatever reason, they walk on the edge of my property, but are getting into two neighbors home. I am thinking our place is not worth the aggravation.

That's about it.

Replying to @Jason844@mastodon.social

@Jason844 Millie seems to have had enough and is like, "If you want to fight, we are going to fight" I think another couple months and boundaries will be set. Every time Sissy hisses are her now, instead of cowering away, Millie just looks at her like she is laughing at her. lol. Still, we are at our wits end. They each adopted a room that they won't let the other in. Only time there isn't a problem is meal time. Sissy doesn't get to eat, get treats, etc. unless Millie is eating too.
