Telephone Cats

It was the telephone that woke Her up this morning, and it was the place where His mother lives. It was not an emergency, so She told them She would give Him the message. When He came in, She told Him about the message, and He said He was surprised about it. After a little while, He went over to see His mother, did a couple errands and came back. Next telephone call came from the place and He told them He didn't get the phone message, but to go ahead and do what they needed to do. This worried Her, because She thought He took care of it while He was over there, but He said He didn't know about it. Don't you remember me telling you? She was really kind of scared now. Don't tell us He's losing His thinking again? Kasey and I will monitor Him closely.
Other than that, He has been acting very normal, doing His routines and watching TV while He makes His salads.
So far we have not heard from the friends who thought they would come over. Oh, well. She will be glad whenever She sees them. She has to be ready to go to school about Katy'sBoy tomorrow. She is glad about that, and I am glad She is having one of those little pies for our dinner. She is listening to Her Italian boys and trying to be a happy camper. Bye now.

Emergency Cats

Today started bright and early - earlier than She usually gets up. This is what the emergency was, The guy did not bring Her paper. If you realize that every morning starts with coffee-the-drink, the paper, toast and butter, you would realize that this was a big thing. As emergencies go, She said it was as much as She would like to have in the way of emergencies, but this is one She can fix. It turns out that She did not send in the money for the paper. She pays by the computer, and when She checked the payment had not been sent. Well, foo. He can't live without His TV guide that comes in the paper. I am glad to report THAT emergency is taken care of. Now, the one about the people who run the country, She couldn't fix that. We have to wait for that one.
People came to the door selling things, and She didn't know the kids, so She just wished them good luck. People drop kids off in the neighborhood and let them go door-to-door. She buys stuff from the neighborhood kids all the time.
Her OperaGirl went to see a movie She is curious about, and Cleo'sDad and Girl are going to a play She has seen before, about a mean lady and how her boyfriend makes her behave. Sort of like training Kasey. (snerk) Since I was up early, I'll have a little rest before dinner. More news later.

Wide Awake Cats

We all had a delightful sleep last night. She and I fell asleep while She was watching TV and He was having His computer fixed. I curled up on Her chest, and when He came back to where we were, Both of us were sound asleep. He left us alone and watched some more TV. Sometime during the night, He turned the light off and left us where we were sleeping. It was kind of funny, when you think about how She couldn't sleep the night before. I woke up earlier than She did, but we have been up-and-at-em all day. That means busy.
She was chuffed when DeDe'sGirl came over and took One of Her old hobby things to use. It was a bunch of cards and a book to tell about them. It was such a pleasure to find them a good home, She said. We had one little problem. The sweet girl is allergic to cats, and it was a job to find a place where they could sit and talk, but She sure did enjoy the visit.
One extra treat when you have a big pizza for dinner is that you have some left over for lunch. That was Her treat for today. I am happy to report that there will be fish for our dinner. Ummm. Nice fish and some snuggles will make my evening complete. Hope you have a nice evening, as well. Toodles.

Pondering Cats

I am pondering, and so is She. We wonder what kept Her from going to sleep for such a long time last night. Usually She falls asleep faster than I do, sometimes while working Her puzzle. Then He has to turn the light off. But last night She couldn't turn off Her ears or Her thinking. Could it be the nice cold drink of coffee She had with Her Crones? Maybe, but I have seen Her fall asleep while She was drinking a cup of nice coffee-the-drink. Maybe She was excited about seeing Her Crones. Boru'sMom came, and She was tickled pink, because that lady doesn't come to Crones very often. Maybe it was the movie that He and She watched after She got home from Crones. It was a twisty-turny kind of movie that had them both spellbound. Personally, I had a nap while it was on, but they watched every minute. It was not a worry kind of being awake, but we will see what happens tonight.
This should be a great night, because They are having pizza, which She loves, and which She shares with a certain cat (ahem). Then They watch a program about an English doctor who is very rude and scared of blood. You would think it would be sad, but it's actually funny. At least He and She laugh at it. Laughing is good. If you will excuse me, I think I'll get a nice drink of water out of the silver bowl on the table. Cheery-bye.

Snuggle Bug Cat

That's me. I'm the snuggle bug. My sister, Kasey doesn't care if she never gets a snuggle, although she will be more friendly with Him than anyone else. As for me, I can't get enough snuggles. Last night, I must have given Her three massages and a curl up snooze. That means I had a nap on Her chest. He thinks I do it when I want food, or a drink of water, and not just because I love snuggles.One thing about lots of snuggles at night is that it makes Her sleep later in the morning. I guess we will have to work on that - or maybe just let Her get used to sleeping late. That would work for me.
I wonder why He keeps putting on the news. It just makes Him and Her upset to hear about what might be happening. What will happen if all the money is gone? I wish we didn't need money at all. It makes Her worried to think about it. That's why it's a good thing when She has a meeting to look forward to. Tonight it is the Crones. I know it seems soon for Crones again, but She is glad that She will have Her beloved friends to visit with.
She also looks forward to seeing Her friends who moved back here after living halfway around the world. She just loves those people, and She is glad they are here to stay for awhile. I hope they come this weekend. Well, I'll talk to you again tomorrow. Bye.

Penny Wise Cats

We are so glad the money troubles with His mother are ending. The old lady is now being able to get the help He has been looking for during these long months. We have learned some important details today. Some She told us, and some we just heard Them talking about. The place where His mother stays is going to handle all the money stuff. It leaves us with no extra money, but we can always cut back a little on kibbles, and I can share more of Her dinner. Maybe just three fingers of butter instead of five. She told me not to worry. She says we have enough. That's all anyone needs, you know. Just enough. She believes that, and I believe it, too. After all, if we had more than enough, She would probably want to go and visit Her OperaGirl, or maybe go to where Her Italian Boys live. That would be hard on her aches and pains. Besides, I like it when She is right here.
She is chuffed because She got a nice note from Mazie today. It told how much fun Mazie had in Paris. Mazie saw a lot of the same things She saw when She was in Paris. It is a nice connection. It will be Mazie's birthday in a couple of weeks, and He and She sent a box full of love and presents.
A bunch of new catalogs came in the mail. It may be a lucky thing that She has to watch Her pennies. Those catalogs can really hypnotize Her. At least I can sit on Her lap while She looks at them. Oh-ree-vwar.

Cats With Treats

You know when She is happy, because it is easy going around here. When She woke up and had Her coffee, it was a regular day, but it became a Treat Day when She read Her emails. She was so anxious to spend some more time with Hana'sGran and the visitors that She whooped and hollered when She saw that She could go and eat lunch with H'sG. Besides the family, there were other people that She also likes very much, and Hana'sGran always has nice food. One of Her favorite things to eat is cornbread, if it is made just right. That is exactly what was for lunch. It was kind of silly that She got there a little late, because She didn't remember that She was invited before, and did not get up early enough to get ready. Spending time with these lovely people makes Her happy for the rest of the day.
Now that She has Her permit to park in an easy place, She went to the store to pick up a couple of things as long as She was out. Here is the joke. All the special close places were full. She drove around because She thought She saw a place, but by the time She got there, another guy with a permit was there. So much for that idea. It is nice that She was in happy feelings, because this didn't make Her disappointed. She thought it was funny.
This looks like a good time to go and get some pets. Maybe She'll hum a song, like She does when She is happy. Chow, bellas.
