Victories Big and Small

Today I really needed a drink of water. The silver bowl was way down, so I had to get water with my paw. The water in my regular bowl had a kibble in it - yuck! While She was at Her computer, I jumped up and gave Her some snuggles. I guess She thought I was asking for a brushing, because I got lots of good brushings, but that was not it. I came back in a few minutes and got on Her keyboard. She picked me up from there and petted me. That felt good, but it still wasn't what I wanted. I went back AGAIN, and this time She caught on! Are you out of food? I jumped down and ran to my bowl. She could see there was food in it - but She also saw the yucky water! She took it away and washed it nice and clean and filled it with water. What a clever girl She is! I believe at this rate, I'll have Her trained pretty soon. OH, then She filled the silver bowl on the table, as well. Oh, that water tasted good! I drank a whole bunch.
Then I had to dance with Her, because Her beloved Eddie finished his running project. She was so glad, because She has been worried about him the whole time. Now, all is well. Missionns accomplished.
I have to go look at a cat that's in the backyard now. Toodles.

Not List-less Today

Today, She had a list with six things on it, and She crossed out four! Well, I had to give Her a massage for that! She says tomorrow is another day, and after the fourth thing, She said She was knackered, so we can give her some credit. She got Her beloved tickets, so that was quite a nice thing to cross off the list. She heard a rumor that the show is already sold out, so good job to Her! Now She will just have to wait patiently for it to be January. She always says don't wish your life away, so She is happy to have every day until then!
He says it is some kind of magic that makes Them always have a gray cat! For a long time They fed a gray kitty that came for breakfast every day. One day he just stopped coming. He thinks it was after a big storm last year. Well, now the gray cat who gave Katy the kittens comes for breakfast every day! He is gray, with a fluffy tail. Katy is gray, too, but she just comes to visit, hoping for a treat. This new cat yows very loudly, and he shows up every time they open the door. When They give him some food, he eats as if he is very hungry. Kasey and I don't mind, as long as he stays outside! No new cats, we have told Them!
The back of the sofa looks soft and inviting. I think I'll go there and rest my eyes. Toodles.

Magic Sunday

There is a song that LW likes, and she calls it Magic Sunday. When She heard that, She laughed. It was some kind of joke, I guess, but I thought that it was a nice name for a song. LW has some good ideas, so I'm fine with calling it that, and She does not need to laugh at LW and me!
There were some things on the list that She had to do before She went to have lunch with Mable's Mom. She said it was a particularly nice lunch, and She brought some home, like She does -But She said it was pancakes, and I do not think I will like them. I will try some, to be polite.
One thing She misses is going to church. She used to like to go, but says She does not feel the love there anymore. She told Him that it was like She took care of the church when it was young, but now it is like a teenager. It thinks it knows everything, and doesn't need Her care anymore. He said He saw it coming. Well, She will go sometimes, to hear LW's Mom and some other friends.
She is really looking forward to getting some tickets tomorrow. I hope She still has enough money left to buy cat food! Right now, we have a big bag of food, and so do the birds. Who knows, maybe her ship will come in. She always says when My ship comes in, I will do this or that. All She wants now is to go see Eddie. Oh, and peace on Earth, She says!
I will write more tomorrow. Now I have to go chase Kasey. Bye.

Another Cat-urday

We were up early and ready for a busy day. The thing She liked was brunch with Mable's Mom and another friend. She had a bunch of things to do before she went, but She got them done, and went off with a clear conscience. They had a nice time, and agreed what to do about M'sM's birthday. They are going out to dinner before Crones. They plan to ask Smudge's Mom to join them, and Cleo's Mom, too, if she doesn't have to work. I think all Her planning from the other day has paid off!
I am tired of the deCluttering, but here She goes again. She wants to take things to the charity place, and has that on her list for Monday. I'll tell you how that works out! Her list doesn't always get things crossed off the way we want.
LW got the surprise They sent. She just loves to give people surprises! Apache's girl liked her surprise, and Cleo's Girl is getting one on Monday. Surprises are fun, unless they have loud noises in them!
She is going to have fish for Her supper, an I will try to help Her with that. See ya later.

Lucky Lunch

Today, His mother had to go to a doctor, and then He took her to lunch. This is a very old lady, and she only ate a couple fo bites, so He brought the lunch home for Her. I could smell the chicken in it and so I climbed up to see if She would share. I guess my eyes looked hungry, so She gave me some bites. It was very good chicken, and She said it was a nice salad as well! Even though He had a hard morning, She and I got some good out of it.
Something is making Her chuckle. It is that Apache's girl got a bag of candy with her name on it. She really likes all of Apache's family, but right now, She thought Apache's girl needed to keep her cheer up. She is tickled pink that A'sG liked the candy! And Super Froggy Girl should be getting a froggy treat pretty soon, as well. When it comes, SFG (who is really LW---snerk!) will share it with her sibs, and everyone will be happy.
I guess everything is good today. She sent a letter to the people who make the laws and told them to do what the President says, and don't be rude!
I believe it is going to rain. I'll go give Her some snuggles so she isn't scared. ToodlePip.

Big Plans

Guess what She is all excited about now. Her beloved Eddie is coming to Texas in January, and tickets for special people go on sale next week, before everyone else! She was telling Him that it is in a place named Dallas, which is kind of far, but She is going to travel there. Another friend wants to fly there and stay in a hotel. I do not want Her to stay away in a hotel! It is fine for Her to see this guy, but She needs to be home with Her cats! She isn't going to get snuggles from him, is She? See what I mean?
So now She has to talk to Mable's Mom, because M'sM's birthday is on the same day as the Crones' meeting. She wants to plan something really nice for M'sM, so there is something else to plan. It looks as if She has gone into Plan Mode right now, with Memorial service and birthdays and figuring out how to get to see Eddie.
She is also very proud of the President. The day after he told children to stay in school, he talked to the people that make the laws, and She said his speeches were wonderful. But She is very annoyed that some people were rude to him. No reason to be rude! She feels very serious about that. She tells that to Kasey all the time! She said She wanted to give those rude people a very mean look!
He has come back from His school now, so I will go get a couple of pets befpre I take my nap. chow.

Crones Rule!

This was a particularly rainy day, and lots of Her Crones said they couldn't make it to the lunch, but She went anyway, and there were only five Crones today. But She was happy when She got home from lunch, because She had saved half Her lunch to have for Her dinner, while He eats His vegetables. Two meals for the price of one, She says. There iis a new word in the ads: frugalista. She likes that word. It sounds so much better than cheap, She says. So She is a frugalista - and I am not surprised!
She gave all the Crones the updates on Mazie, and on Mazie's Dad's hurt arm. everyone said to send love to him, so they focused on that, She says. They talked about Ms. Rita, and decided to look for a new place to eat their lunch together.
His mom is out of the hospital place, and back at the place where she lives. He says His mom doesn't like anyplace. I like lots of places: The chair, the sofa, the closet, under the table,lots of places. Someone told a guy that they thought They were taking his mom's money, so the guy investigated. It was his decision that they are not stealing the money. Whew!
I'm going to see what is in my bowl. TTYL
