Day #5870 – (Sat., Jan. 31, 2026) – Snapping Turtle Wall Clock

It’s a rather lazy Saturday in the Comox Valley for us. No planned activities… No play dates… No events… And certainly no wild parties!

Bobby spent quite a bit of time playing online with Ethan today…one of his favorite activities. I asked him who his best friend is these days and he offered up three, either Ezra, Isaac, or Ethan. Two local, one remote. I happened to snap this photo of his “wall clock” (see photo to the right). The one that shines the time in red on the wall so that a sleepy eyed Bobby will know what time it is in the middle of the night. Doesn’t it look like a snapping turtle?

Katie was “chill” today as well. This was a busy week for her so she was looking forward to this weekend to just relax. Bobby opened the door to check on her and when it didn’t latch it eventually flew open. No wonder we could hear Batman meowing so clearly in the other room. Fortunately Maple was downstairs sleeping. Oh and Katie? She was sleeping. Despite her complaints of her room being too hot she was able to drift off to la la land…

My wife did some laundry and worked on her “1000 Piece 2025 Photo” puzzle. I went for a coffee. Like I said… It’s a rather lazy Saturday in the Comox Valley for us. No planned activities… No play dates… No events… And certainly no wild parties!
