Sometimes It is Crazy

My nextdoor neighbors asked if would take care of their cats while they were out-of-town.  Of course I said Yes.  I went over and the husband walked me thru their security system and handed me a key alarm fob.  I left and they left.

I went over the next morning, one cat was outside and one cat was inside ~ and I had no key.  He just gave me the alarm fob.  I never even thought about it!  So, I fed the cat outside and brought him some water.  The inside cat had food and water and the comfort of being inside.  They stared at each other through the glass.  And I felt bad.

I contacted the family and told them what was going on and asked if someone else had a key.  They would check they said.  Luckily, another neighbor came over with a key.  Happy Days!!!! I mentioned it to Amy and said that maybe we ought to hide a key and she reminded me that Jim has a key, Lori has a key, Maren has a key and Jesse has a key.  So we are safe if we ever get locked out.

Then, I was typing a letter to our cousin Thorbjorg in Norway.  She just turned 96 in August! And as I was addressing the envelope ~ of course I was using the laptop keyboard as a flat top ~ and all of a sudden.......the screen image on the laptop turned upside down!

It was the strangest thing!  Has that ever happened to you?  I had to Google the question, and I had to turn the laptop upside down to do it and surprisingly it has happened to alot of people ~ you press Ctrl  Alt and the arrow up key together and Voila! The screen reverted back.  I still do not know what I pressed to have that happen.

And, last but not least, I believe this is a monarch butterfly ~ he was visiting our backyard:
