Cats!

 

Received my Cats & Caracombs pledge today (no notification,  USPS delivered). I also received my COVID19 errrr Aliexpress order: creality BLTouch 

 

I ordered during the build up to the US getting the virus. I totally spaced there was even a virus. I'm not worried, but something t think about in the future.

Haul from the tax return and/or bonus time...

 

Ordered:
From Warsenal... Commanche Barricades, Cosmica Cargo Pack, Cosmica Research Station, 3x Infinity Scenery Support Structures.  Oh, and magnets.

From MeepleMart... Kurage Station Scenery Pack, Navajo Outpost Scenery Pack, Micro Art Studio Terminus Segments Communal battle mat, Hunzakut

 

Waiting on "stuff":

New 5x5' gaming table from Ikea (2x Linnmon table top, and 4x Klimpen shelves) - I need to swing by Ikea to pick these up

Iron Heart Artisans... 3x Inverted 72 Dropper Bottle Rack, 3x 6 Tier Stepped Paint Rack, 1x 6 Tier Stepped Corner Paint Rack, 1x 6 Tier Stepped Outside Corner paint Rack, 2x Paint Brush Rack - waiting on confirmation for shipping costs, they'll let me know next week due to convention

 

I was hoping to get stuff from Gingermane, LosBlock and Mad Gaming (through 4tk) too, but those will have to wait.  Having more usable space on the paint desk again will be a godsend ^_^

I've been watching some videos on actually playing Star Wars Legion, and the one thing that became very clear....there aren't enough dice in the starter. 

 

The clear solution to that problem is to buy a second starter.  That way you have enough troops, enough dice, and spare barriers and measuring tools. ^_^

What a lovely and time-consuming acquisition. You've even got a pond! 

 

 

 

Although I like the pond, it's gotta go.

Bad for Brutus and bad for little kids that might visit.

I do not have the time to maintain it either, and somehow my girlfriend discarded my ideas of putting some big turtles in there.

 

We have permission to cut the monkey tree down, we will create a new green spot after that one and the pond are gone.

Replanting a tree to maintain balance in a different spot in the garden.

 

So much to do...

They are quite a prickly undertaking, those monkey puzzle trees. I always wanted one but never got 'round to planting one when we were in Scotland.

 

Completely understand about the upkeep. In a similar vein, we got rid of the enclosed vegetable garden kindly left to us when moving into our current house; I never realised tomatoes grew like weeds. o.O

Little kids and a pool with alligator snapping turtles are a bad combination. I think your lady made you dodge a bullet there! ::P:

So, uhm, these came in at work this morning....

Warehouse staff were all making jokes about chair racing down the aisles... Up until I picked them up off the cart (gawds they're heavy!) and put them in my truck... 

 

24 count kcup cases for scale, since I didn't have anything else on hand.
