Life Story Cats

Guess what She wants to do. She wants to write Her life story. She wants to make a book about how She remembers things and people and inventions and cats. It is OK with me, as long as She doesn't hog this computer all the time, because my stories are very important. There are people who don't know what is happening at our house, except for my stories. Of course, most of Her friends know that it is Eddie's birthday today, but how many know whose birthday is next week, hmmm?How many people know that Her MusicGuy has a birthday this month, too - and Mazie's biggest brother. She won't put that in Her stories, I bet. Well, if She wants to write about what She remembers, before She forgets everything, I guess I have to let Her.
She had fun today, trying to send Her Eddie a birthday card by email. She had a conversation with Cleo'sDad on this computer, too. She read about Her beloved OperaGirl, and how hard she has to work, and about LW'sBrother getting annoyed with the school. She ate some of Her M&Ms until She didn't feel like eating lunch, then She put them away where She wouldn't keep seeing them. I told Her to do that, because I am a very clever cat. Here is my big news. When She put out 4 treats for Kasey, I ate them before Kasey came back. (snerk) I have not eaten treats before, but they were actually quite tasty. I may have to rethink this treats business. I'll tell you how that goes when I TTYL.

Super Cats

The weather is OK for a big football game, and it is on lots of minds. You know Her, and that She doesn't care about football, but She knows it is big business. To listen to Her, She says that is what's wrong with these knock-down-and-pummel-sports. But She is not disgusted enough with it that She doesn't want others to have fun. She says the best news is that Her Sunday shows won't be startng late for a bunch of months.
She visited with a lot of folks today, and told Her Crones to remember lunch this week. Sabra'sMom reminded Her that she was going to another country and would not be there at the lunch. Her OperaGirl sent Her some nice pictures, and She reminded people that it would be Eddie's birthday tomorrow. She also counted 19 days until She sees Her Mazie. There was a lot of information flying around today, and it gave Her some pep. There is nothing like a good day of sharing with friends, Coffs, She told me.
Speaking of sharing, Katy'sMom has done it again. K'sM brought over a big pot of nice food, and it made Her quite chuffed. I didn't get to see it, but She told me I could have a bite of Her dinner. I will not make a mean face at Katy for a few days, because her mom brought such nice food. I am kind of thirsty now, so I will chase Kasey away from the silver bowl on the table and have a nice drink. I think the water is OK now. Bye for now.

Ho Hum Cats

It was a very quiet day around here. There was something hinkey with the water this morning but it seems OK now. We had bottled water, because the regular water looked funny. If our pipes froze, we shouldn't have all this water in the right places. At leas that's what He says. She told me the pipes have broken 2 times since they moved to this house. Oh, no, She says. Not again. But He told us there is nothing we can do until we know for sure. She assured us we would not be in danger, but I went into the closet anyway. He went to see His mother and said the roads are not frozen any more. She ate the last of Her pizza from the other night. I shared some of it with Her, and She says I'm an Italian cat, the way I went after that pizza.
So not much to tell you about today, so I'll make my story kind of short. I have to go cheer Her up because She is lonesome for news about Her beloved Eddie, and about Her Grandchildren. I told Her that I would give Her a nice massage, and maybe the mail guy will bring Her something nice.
There will be more to tell you tomorrow, so I'll say chow for now, bellas.

Grumbly Cats

Well, foo. I still haven't seen snow. We were told to expect a whole bunch of snow and ice and nasty slush. When we woke up, there was no snow, and it looked the same as any winter morning. When He went out to feed the birds, He said the grass was all covered in ice, but you couldn't tell from in here. And She saw on the news that cars were running into each other by the dozens. I guess it wasn't a waste of emergency closing of schools and stuff, but We were ready for a bushel of trouble, and just got a cupful. It was smart to stay home, but you could not call it an adventure. I think people who have a bunch of snow are laughing at us.
Never mind that. We kept busy around the house. She had Her leftover pizza to cheer her up, and He makes sure there are always plenty of kibbles. Our electric stuff stayed on, and She could play on the computer. I helped Her with that until She went to do some other stuff, and I curled up in a comfy chair. Kasey was pretty lively, and played with her fish, which has bells on it. What They wondered was if they would be able to play that big football game they talk about. Right now, airports are closed. What if the players can't get here? What if they can't get rid of all the ice? She doesn't care a flip about football games, but this one is a big deal, and if they can't have it, our state will look really bad. I'll let you know how it turns out. Oddy-ose for now.

Snow Cats

This is HUGE! Kasey and I have never seen snow, and the weather guy says it is going to snow tonight. They are both worried about driving, because you need different skills to drive in snow and ice. They are not going to risk driving, so He is staying home from his class tonight. You can't believe how excited everyone here is about snow and ice. It was about five years since there was even a flake of snow, and it didn't stick on the ground. He says it will stick this time, because the weather has been so cold for three days. Do you know what would be fun? If He lets Kasey go outside in the snow, just to see what it's like. She says that would be mean, but I think it would teach the little rascal a lesson, and she wouldn't keep wanting to go out. We could feel the excitement in the air, and we raced around like oofties all day. It always makes Her laugh when we do that. You would never guess we are a couple of lazy-bones cats. Well, we will get plenty of rest, because both laps will be in place tonight.
She has earned a night of rest, because She finished making the papers for Their tax. She still has to do His mother's tax, but She is tired of tax right now. And She is having Her pizza tonight. She planned on having it when He was at His class, but since He will stay home, She will fix it anyway, because, well, She can't wait one more day for it. She says it is lucky that He is so dedicated to His vegetables, and so nice to Her. We are lucky here at this house, even if it snows. TTYL.

Strange Event Cats

Everything was going fine this morning. The coffee was made and She was getting ready to make Her toast when - Surprise - all the lights went off. We were very puzzled because there was no bad weather, except that it was really, truly cold. She tried to give me cold butter, but I did not care for that, and after one finger, I left. Pretty soon the lights came back on, the toaster worked, and we were back on schedule. He and She were both puzzled by the lights thing, but when She read what people said on Her computer, it turns out that the electric people where we live decided to shut off the electric every couple of hours to save on electricity. It is always good to find out an answer, isn't it? It came off and on a few times, which was annoying, but it was small compared to all the trouble going on around the other places. She showed me pictures of lots of ice and snow. He saw that there was lots of ice on the place where there is supposed to be a big football game pretty soon. We all hoped the ice would go away for that. I guess it is a big deal.
She had a lot of fun talking to her computer friends when everything was working. And She was glad that She went to the store yesterday. This was a good day to be cozy at home. We are not used to being cold, you know. I'll go check on what They are doing. It's almost time for dinner. Poodle Tip. (Get it?)

New Month Cats

We are so excited about this new month that we ran around the house like things that run around houses! I jumped up and got some extra snuggles, I had several fingers of butter, and I made a mean face at a cat that wandered into our yard. That cat looked a lot like me, is what He said, but I looked in the mirror and I am much finer looking than that strange cat. Yesterday it was nice and sunny and just like a Spring day. Today it was freezingly winter, but we were lucky, because She read to us about ice and snow storms all around the place. It was a nice day to stay in and snuggle with your cat, in my opinion, but She felt like She had better go to the store before it got rainy. It was nice and sunny, but She said it was really freezing outside. She got a good parking place, She told him. She saw one of Her friends at the store, and they had a little chat before She got all Her stuff and came home. She loves to see people and chat. So She is all stocked up, and doesn't have to go back out in the cold if She doesn't want to.
The candy people came out with a new kind of Snickers, and She got some and tried it. She reports that it is a winner. As if Snickers needs to be better, She said, and went (snerk). She told Kasey and me what lucky cats we are that we don't have to go out in the cold, and that we don't like Snickers. I told her that I was plenty tempted by fish, but She said it's not the same. Well, Kasey is already tired from running around and is have a nap. I believe I will do the same, while She fixes Her dinner. So long, friends.
