Oh yes...the wait. I remember it well.
Well...let us just say that I am really not enamoured of the reward. Definitely not worth it. But not knowing what it might be...strung me along. The vase takes up extra space...which most of the time is needed for something else. My first two feeds with two vases netted one worm and one walrus. They say that one vase is enough...but I had room. Maybe it was overkill.
I found the upper vases this time out to be more of a pain...but I got to the last two on the hippo and saw that a garden that I normally visit had bamboo...so thought...maybe. Another girl found the alert for the panda so I left in her hands...and she came back and said that the panda was not what she needed...but there was another alert and to come back. So I quickly dumped a platter of food...and planted the bamboo...and caught the panda. It was the missing link. I had no idea. Then the last critter was a given. I had the fish for the walrus...and did not change the colour...and just added the other plants...and first feed...wow...it was the walrus. I did not have to look around to eliminate critters. Easiest one. A splash in two gardens netted me the other half of the box...and I was done.
I think...that if I knew the outcome aka the reward...I would have just attracted one...and found one of each gold. But it gave me something to do...so I guess that was something...

I do not think that the reward is worth all the effort to be honest. I think that if I knew ahead of time...I might just have done one of each...excepting the mice and duck ones which were fun and easy. At least now, if someone was starting they could do all the vases that were using the level two plants...and test all all once. Would save a lot of planting and ripping

I am done with the gold challenge...but I have not done five of the llama or the hippo. So I will just carry on for now.
Apparently...you do not need to do one set...and that is the hippo and llama for me. But...at present you have to spot one each of all the gold even the ones that you are not doing...but it is to change to you do not have to spot the gold for those two either. It had not changed this morning. I am not keen on making a bouquet...and the bouquet is supposed to reduce vermin by thirty per cent. I have my doubts. But am testing to find out.

A trip to...England perhaps...
Gardening is not a priority here. It has been too cold...or wet...or both. Some areas got snow on Saturday. And the needles from the evergreen at the front of our house are still frozen to the ground underneath the tree. I have done a fair bit of raking off of the gardens...still a couple areas untouched...and will have to do a second pass over what has been done. I decided not to rake the grass this year...and that cuts down the work immensely.

I am back...eighteen degrees C.
There are hamster type wheels for cats apparently...hahahaha.
He is now sitting beside the card catalogue...which has the drawer...with the BEADS in it. I am supposed to get the hint.
He has a nice head shape...angular. He let me rub his ears...and now he has taken off as I just do not get it.

I played for a half hour with him with the string of beads...and he still has energy. My arm got tired. He did not seem to show any signs of slowing down.
This is funny. He kept going in the front window and attacking the net wings on a fairy...so Kevin sprayed with bitter apple which is not harmful...but supposed to stop animals. It seemed to just encourage him. Hahaha. So I just ripped the wings off the fairy...solved it.
Am off to get ready to walk...and put Skimbi in the sunroom while we are out...just so if he gets into trouble...we can rescue him.

No April is a shady month...it starts with April Fools Day...so that says it all.
Skimbi is racing about...hope he tires soon. Hahaha.

Did you eat too many mice...I can imagine a furball stuck in your throat.
I have a furball in my lap...trying to convince me to give him his dinner. He is asking an hour early...so I told him that his affections did not win me over. Hahaha. He just ran off.
You can do it. And will do it. I know it.
Hope you are feeling better...and continue to do so...
It is fifteen degrees C and sunny...so heading out on a walk in about fifteen...looking forward to it.
