Wise Old Cats

Kasey and I are kind of old and very wise. Since He and She value wise old people and cats, it is our best interest to show them we are wise enough to almost always keep our poo in the litter boxes, and to eat slowly so we don't scatter kibbles everywhere. Kasey acts like she is wise until the back door opens, and then she tries to get out. Since He is old and wise He catches her. As for Her, She loves a lot of people, but among Her favorites are The Crones, who are wise and wonderful. You have to be a certain amount of old to be a Crone, but She is older than all but one of them. She had a lovely time with them last night.
This has been a really unusual day. There was nothing on Her calendar at all. That almost never happens, so today She just had a retired day. We did all our routines, but She didn't work on very much de-cluttering and only made one order from Her catalogs. She didn't even watch TV. She just thought. She thinks She is lucky to be able to think without getting b*r*d. (Remember, we are not allowed to use that word.) She can sort things out in Her thoughts and decide what to write down. Today She was remembering all Her old boyfriends. One of Her favorite things to remember is that the boys thought She was smart and funny. In the olden days, some boys were afraid of smart girls, so some girls acted as if they were not smart to not scare the boys. Not Her, though. Her Grandma would have made a sad face if She had pretended like that. It was all a long time ago. That is why She is old and wise today. If I can act wise enough, maybe She will fix pizza for dinner. Mmmmmm. Maybe it's because of those Italian boys, but I feel like eating some of Her pizza. Chow for Now.

Electrical Cats

It started out to be a really good day. She was havng a meeting with Her beloved Crones tonight, She was visiting with Her computer friends while listening to Her three Italian boys. Suddenly, everything turned off, all by itself. It turned out the electricity was off all over the house.Now She was in a pickle. Our phones don't work when the electricity is off, and He was at the dentist. She has forgotten to get new phone minutes on Her carry-around phone. When He brought His carry-around phone home, They called the electricity fixers. They said they would send somebody out. Before that guy came, the electricity turned back on by itself. She was very chuffed about that, because it meant She wouldn't have to pay a guy to fix it. What an adventure. Everything is OK now, so She can go to Her meeting with a smiley face.
In one more day it will be July. It seems as if it took a long time to get here. I am glad it is July at last because it is time for Cleo'sDad's birthday, and Hana'sGran will have Hana and her family in her house. I know She will go and see them. Also, Her beloved Eddie is through doing his show far away and will be coming back to the country where we live. She won't be able to go see him this time, though. Well, at least he is a little closer. Ohoh, She's coming back now, to buy minutes for Her phone. TTYL

Worried Cats

Today was the day for Their Thinking People at our cousin Sabra's house. We are usually happy for Them when they have Their Thinking Day, because He and She like to think. They were especially excited to go today because Her nice Crone friend was there. She had never gone before, and she is a very nice person - who also thinks. This is why we are worried. Sabra'sMom had the question today, and it was about having a war. We already have a bunch of wars going on, and the President She likes so uch is trying to stop at least one of them. Sabra'sMom made Him and Her think about how things were going in the world, and even though She likes to think about happy things, today's talk made things seem more gloomy. It didn't take long until She was cheered up again, though, because She decided that all we can do is the best we can. He and She told us not to worry. Trouble is, I can't help it. Kasey is lucky, because as long as she gets her treats, she doesn't care about the rest of the world.
After a nice lunch and a few pets, I felt a lot better myself. She sent some things about Her beloved Eddie to the new lady, because She likes that lady and wants to share. If the new lady doesn't like Her Eddie, it will be OK, though. People can like whatever they want. But they should at least know about this Favorite guy because She talks about him all the time. Must check the menu for tonight. Toodles.

Eating Cats

Of course we eat. We eat every day. He fills our dishes when we get low on kibbles. We are not in danger of missing any meals, and neither are He and She. Today, though, She felt like She had to get some new food, and so She went to the store. Kasey and I don't care for sweet things, and neither does He. Do you know who loves sweet things? She does. She practically floated home when She found a box with a really lot of ice-cream things for a very low price. Since they are already measured out, She is not in danger of eating too much at a time. Most of the things She eats are kind of measured out, so except for those cookies, She can eat right. We help Her with that. That is why we are eating cats.
She got a call today from an old friend, and She was on the phone so long that I almost didn't get to write my story. I had to climb all over Her to get Her off the phone. She likes to talk to old friends, though. Plus She is very happy that Her beloved Crones will meet this week, and so will Her beloved Thinking people. I'll give you a report when those meetings happen. For now I will just tell you that when She goes to the store, She comes home very knackered. I guess I'm getting old, Cofs, She tells me. Kasey and I laugh when She says that. Getting old? No kidding. Well, TaTa for now.

Pleasant Cats

This is the kind of day it has been around here. A pleasant day. Everything was sort of easy, with no emergencies or disappointments. They have gotten some things done, so it wasn't a wasted day. She does not like a wasted day, when you think, let's see, what have I gotten done today? and the answer is nothing. No it wasn't that kind of day. But it wasn't a rush to get things done day, either. They were pleased with their movie that comes in the mail. The paper said it wasn't so good, but they like the players in it, so they watched, and it was OK. Jolly good fun, She said. I mostly slept through it.
She also cleared up a mystery. Hana'sGran is getting ready for Hana and her family to come for a visit. She got them a funny little rug that somehow showed the children were really special. It didn't come for a long time, and She was getting kind of mad at the company that sends it. Today She fouind out that it was there, but the company didn't tell Hana'sGran that it came from Him and Her and Kasey and me.She was so relieved that it got there in time that She isn't even mad about that anymore.
When you have a pleasant day, you feel quite smiley. It is a nice feeling. Cheers.

Beautiful Cats

There has been a lot to do with pictures around here. This is what happened. Her OperaGirl is a beautiful singer, yes. But she is also a good photographer. Of Course, OG would be a treasure to Her if she couldn't do anything but be there, but OG is a very talented young lady. When She was visiting Her OperaGirl last summer, OG took pictures of Her and the others when they all went to visit with Eddie. One of the pictures was Made into a great big one and is in a frame at Their house. Now, She has not had a good picture to put next to Her notes to her friends, so Her OG fixed up part of a picture that showed Her face all smiles, and taught Her how to put it next to Her notes. She was so chuffed over that She almost started to dance. Her friends said they liked it too, even though it was made before She had Her fake teeth. She doesn't even care about that. Then She reminded Kasey and me that our pictures are here by my stories, and there is a picture of me where She writes to Her Eddie-people. I am a beautiful cat, indeed, and so is my sister, Kasey, although Kasey doesn't care about things like that. She has let me look at the pictures of you that are on the computer, and I know some of you in person-cat. I believe that you are beautiful, too.
That is what we were thinking about today. That and the three Italian boys. So chow for now.

Flexible Cats

All Her life, Her job meant that She had to have plans for everything, all day. Now that She is retired, plans have turned into to-do lists. She doesn't have to tell what the goals and objectives are, just what is on Her calendar and what is on Her list. If something changes, She is OK with is, so Kasey and I are OK with it as well. For example, Her to-do list for today said that She would go to this special store to buy some things to eat that were on a big sale. To do that, of course, She would need Her car, which was still at the fixing place. There was a car They borrowed from the fixing place, so She could use that. The more She thought about it, though, the special sale still cost more than Her budget amounted to, and She realized that something that cost $22 instead of $25 was still quite a lot of money. She thought about it until almost lunch time, and then decided She had enough to eat for the weekend, and stayed home. That way, She could decide what we will do tomorrow. I'm just afraid She might change my name to Ignazio, after that cute little singer.
Fish and chips are for our dinner tonight. Picture me with a happy face and my usual name. Bwayno notchee.
