Itzl

As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!

IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.

Monday: Crimson Quillfeather alternating with ZenTrainer

Tuesday: ejoanna

Wednesday: Pam from Calif

Thursday: art ah zen

I adopted Maci, my Maine Coon Cat a few days before Thanksgiving last year. Her previous family became allergic to cats and were desperate to find Maci a forever home. I tried to reach out and help. Nobody was found. I decided to adopt Maci. Maci is 8years old and a svelte 15 pounds. She has been a good companion cat especially during the Covid-19 Shelter-In-Place. Maci tolerates me taking photos of her. She has perfected the Diva pose.

When I first got her she would attempt to rush out any open door. She scared me to death as she bolted out of the house the 2nd week I had her. Thankfully, I got her back in the house. My neighborhood has a ton of trees and not far from open space. Maci must feel a bit more secure because she doesn’t rush to the door. I’m still careful about opening doors though. She doesn't play with typical cat toys but loves shoelaces. She loves people and is a very vocal sociable cat like other Maine Coon Cats.

Maci was a stinker and wouldn’t allow me to sew on this quilt’s binding. I had to distract her with her favorite shoestring. She can be an excellent quilt quality feline. Maci offers her opinions quite freely.

Thank you art ah zen for switching places with me. I had a quilt that needed to be finished by Weds
