Ruby here. The Herd Annex is being as normal as we ever are.
Tartok and I are performing our normal kitchen patrols.
Well, except for when Tartok is upside down snoring.
And then I just have to keep a close eye on things in the kitchen by myself.
A very close eye
A very, very close eye.
A very, very, very close eye.
And then I reflect on the one that got away.

This Week's Thundering Herd Special Features
Monday Musing
Weekly thoughts from our Hu-Dad with the latest updates on his writing projects, the books he's reading, and a gratuitous dog photo of us.
A Whiff of Wildlife
January 29, 2023
An hour before sunrise. Darkness cloaked my path. Fear bubbled up inside me. A whiff of wildlife alerted me to a heinous stalker in the woods.
Way Back Wednesday
Each week, we reach back into our vault of over 4,700 previous posts and share a favorite. We hope you enjoy this look back.
The Big Secret
You know Typhoon as the impish Little Prince, always into mischief. But he has been hiding something and, today, we reveal Typhoon’s big secret.
Visit Millerton, a fictional small town near Asheville NC, via D.K. Wall's novels. Ordinary people. Extraordinary events.
Oh, Ruby. A girl’s work is never done. Steve is always falling asleep, leaving me to do everything, so I feel your pain.

Same thing here, Ruby. Although about six months ago I dropped a cracker which still brings the dogs to the kitchen whenever I get any crackers out. You would think that six months would be long enough to forget!
Note to HuDad…I saw K in the new bed. What a great idea. I’m sorry you had already raised the money before I saw the post. Next time, if you’ll give me a “heads up” I will be happy to chip in.
Hmmm, my question is, how can Tartok remain upside down and snoring with stuff going on in the kitchen?
Stay vigilant, Ruby! You never know what might come your way.
Dont you hate when they get away?
Stop on by for a visit

Sigh. Poor Ruby. My heart is bleeding for you. Bleeding I tell you.
The one that got away is always the hardest to forget! Next time, Ruby!
Awesome patrols, Ruby. Patrols are best done by not moving. Saves us lots of energy. Eyeballing is the best way to patrol.
Woooo,
