Not a Good Morning
The critters around here are out to get me today.
I just get out of bed and look out on the balcony. Peanut Brain has dug up every single flower pot; the morning glories are big enough to survive, but everything else is probably dead.
Then, I go into the computer room. My monitor was… missing.
Actually, someone (I suspect Koshka) had knocked it off the desk. The desk is a corner desk with a gap down the back where it fits up against the wall. The monitor is just top-heavy enough that a small animal can topple it over.
Fortunately, I keep all the boxes that my assorted peripherals came in and have stowed them under the desk in that gap on the floor. The monitor landed face first on a largish box and was undamaged. Getting the monitor back onto the desk was more exercise than I was prepared for at this hour of the day, however.
The day can only get better from here.

Yowch! Sympathies, and hopes for better things.
I am reminded of a great mug or bookmark or something I once saw. “Eat a toad first thing in the morning, and nothing worse will happen to you all day.”

I don’t know if I should mention this, but the other Кошка had a talent for re-organizing computer equipment, as well as walking along the tops of doors.
We have day lilies and daffodils popping up all over the yard because of squirrels. It makes late winter interesting.
