Good Day

I have been up in her bed a lot today. I love it there. I did not however, go sleep with her last night. I have no idea why I deny myself that warmth BUT this morning after I made sure she was awake by shouting at her..I did lay there with my back on hers..soaking up the warmth. She loved it. I have her by the hair on her head. I can do no wrong.

She has something that will keep my fur out of her keyboard now. She finally found a place that makes keyboard skins for laptops. She got it today and she's typing on it as I speak (I am dictating what she should write). When she changed the battery in the mouse two days ago, she dug fur out it it, too. She also bought a monitor cover but she is a little wary about getting it out of its protective cover in order to apply it. So, it is still in here repining on top of the printer.

She has her fifth birthday bash today and that will come close to the last. Just 2 more to go.

I declare that my human mom slept poorly last night. Go figure. I know that she would sleep better however paralyzed into one position she would be if I would just go up there the way I always used to. No idea what my problem is.

I'm just keeping my claw in here. My ship has stopped taking on water for now. Ahoy!! Avast me hearty's. I am going to have my fur braided so as to strike terror into evil doers everywhere.

Mom and me

Tell you what! Amazing how quickly I return to old habits when the weather cools down. Last night, I refused to sleep with mom again but..as soon as she piled out of bed this morning and got the thing made..I was standing by to get into it. She has my favorite rose colored heavy blanket on and my red fleece blanket too that is at the foot of the bed. I have my choice, so I chose my blanket after making sure nothing else was better. Last night she got all tickled as she wandered into the room and found me, after months absence, up on the counterpane atop her jammies, sound asleep. That woman needs to get a life. She gets enchanted over everything I do..just because I am soft, warm, and gorgeous.

It got down to 47 last night and the inside of the house was 67 when I meowed her awake for my breakfast. Just exactly right for sleeping and later this afternoon, I finally...again after months, got up into the chair with her for a nap. She got up later and of course, I spread out into the entire chair. Now she can't get in it. Ha. Ha.

She is checking to see if the heat works as sometimes she has to call the folks to check it. See ya later.

Ahoy. Avast. Arrrrr.

Like...

Like we are about to drown here. These are 4 weeks of rain each day. Monday will start the 5th week but I heard Mom say that it is supposed to stop after Monday. This is why we are turning in to! (mom took this at the Marina)

We have mushrooms and toadstools growing on everyone's lawns and on wood surfaces. there is algae everywhere and plaques of fungi that look like shelves, grown on the trees. Flooding everywhere around here and other Counties, but where I live and have my litterbox, we are way up on a hill so we aren't concerned about that for our own home.

It has rained so hard for so long today mom has not even ventured out. That never happens, but it did today. For me, I have spent some time dozing in front of the screen door looking at the driving rain.

She had a wonderful birthday yesterday though. One of her sons took her to supper and gave her a beautiful jade necklace on a black cord..and two black T's from New Zealand and a router so that she can leave this room with the computer. And a big cleaning brush for that huge bird feeder..the motorized one that spins squirrels off of it when they touch it.

She was so happy to have his company for awhile and one of her other sons called too..the one in N.C. She'll see the third son this weekend coming. Life is good.

Tomorrow

Tomorrow is Mom's birthday. She won't tell me which one. I think that's unfair because she knows how old I am! She thinks I will spill the beans here in my blog. I probably would.

She could have gone to see her middle son for her birthday weekend but he asked late in the week to make arrangements easily and more still, she isn't feeling too well. It's a simple matter and she went to the doctor today. I know because she got ME up at 6 so she could be dressed and ready to roll for her appt at 8. She takes very very little medicine but now she has one. It will set things to right.

I am on my back in the doorway asleep enjoying the light on my belly. Mom is, as directed by me, typing for me. She wrote something about me in her blog today. I think I annoy her with where I lay down.

See you after the festivities.

Week is going by slowly

Today my human mom was up on her favorite thing, that noisy treadmill which made me have to go for a nap in my room. She'll be up there again tomorrow morning I know but Thursday she will be at a very early appt. with her Dr. The awful hour of 0815. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do, she said, despite thinking she can handle everything.

She has a birthday Friday. Mine is in December. We will celebrate mine more than hers. I know one of her sons is coming over after work. She will enjoy that visit.

I haven't been fussing much over my medication. I wonder why? But she is glad, I can sense that easily.

Going to get busy here in a few moments. I just wanted to wave my beautiful plume of a tail at you before the day ended.

Whisker tickles to you.
