Pillow Baby

I can think of few things cuter than a kitty who likes to use a pillow to sleep on! Cashmere adores pillows, actually, so does Glitter.. And Leo is not opposed to them at all.. But today is Cashmere's turn! She's showing off how to use one pillow for her weary little head and another for her paws. I think she's got this whole nap thing down to a science.

Cashmere: zzzzzz admire if you must, but do so quietly pleasezzzzzzzz

Waiting Game

So, I must have dared the universe last Thursday when I said that I would start blogging more regularly starting then.. Because my internet went down right after that! I finally got my laptop fixed and then no internet, yup, sounds about right for me. It's back up now, but I'm not going to make any claims about posting or anything this time! I hope I learned my lesson.

Because everything has been so wonky, I decided to post this wonky picture. I've had it for quite a while but didn't think it was good enough to post. Greg took it on his cell phone. This is what waits for him every time he gets a shower. Glitter leans against the wall opposite the door to the bathroom. Even though the door is open, she waits there.

I assume from her weird twisted pose that she was giving herself a bath while she waited. Gotta love the side eye she's giving him, coy girl!

Glitter: I'm the designated bathroom life guard. I'm here to make sure you're safe. However my job is only to observe and report, don't expect me to try to save your butt should you drown!

Here's hoping I see you all again tomorrow!

Thankful Thursday!

Oh boy do we have a BIG Thankful today!! It's been SO long since our laptop has been down and I haven't had access to my kitty pictures or the way to download from my camera; it's really been driving me nuts! But finally! FINALLY! it's all fixed and put back together! Yay!!!!

I've missed my kitty stickers too. It's not as much fun looking at a plain black laptop as it is my shiny red one with all the kitty window clings on it! Not to mention all of my programs!

We're getting organized, and will be blogging kitties again, hopefully starting tomorrow! Whew, it's good to be back! We've missed you all!!!!!!

So thankful to be back up and running and that there were no parts left over! :D

 

 

Two for Tuesday

Ok, this is not the kind of "two" you're probably used to seeing on Two for Tuesday posts. Because you are not going to see two cats! What you are going to see is Glitter using two of something!

Glitter: This is my chair. And.. so is this other one! Yup. That's my two for Tuesday.. Two Chairs! 

See, she's sitting on the arm one one chair, leaning across the work bag between them and h as her paw on the other chair! She effectively claimed them both!

~~~~~~~~~

The picture could be better, but my photo editing tools are on my laptop and I'm still (sigh) using my nieces (that she borrowed from Greg).
Good news, I got the wifi card in my computer and it goes on line! Bad news, I did something to the graphics or video and the picture keeps going on and off... Fun. So it obviously needs more work.
But last week we were on vacation! We split it between a little bit of fun and a little bit of work and I tell ya, we need another week to recover from that one!
Anyway, a little more time before we're back to running fully here. Fingers crossed that it's soon!

Independence Day!!

Happy Fourth of July! Happy Independence Day! I hope all of our American friends celebrate safely and that all the furrys are safe from the boom booms!

Leo: I'm a Yankee Doodle Kitty...

If you recognize the picture of Leo here, it's because we've used it before!

I'm still working on my laptop and still don't have access to all of my pictures. But soon! The news is good, the new part worked and it's running. But now I have to put the whole thing back together. Which involves about a gazillion teeny tiny screws, so yeah, fun.. I did manage to test it without putting it together fully, but now I have to go back and reassemble. Gotta get motivated for that, MOL! Soon!

Happy day to everyone!!

A Year of Piper's Peeps!

First things first, I still don't have my computer back up. The part did arrive! yay! And it looks right! Yay! But I haven't gotten it put back together yet. boo! I need to soon though, before I forget which piece goes where and end up with the whole thing duct taped together every which way, pieces and parts sticking out of random spots... Anyway, soon! 

I didn't have to wait for the laptop fix to do this post because my mom emailed me the pictures! 

You see, it's been one whole year since we went down to Columbus to meet up with Jeanne of Random Felines to adopt Piper for my mom from the rescue she works for, Colony Cats! Thank you Jeanne! Piper has been a wonderful blessing for my mom and a great Mother's Day Gift! 

Yes, Piper was a Mother's day gift, even though we got her in June.. it took that long for mom to pick out the kitty she wanted, and for me to have my appointment that took us down to Columbus so we could choose from that rescue. 

Piper has taken over her house like a champ! She has her spot to watch birdies, and those knick knacks that used to be there? Moved! Because she'd toss them on the floor like a true queen if they stayed! The turtle tank gets regularly inspected. Toys get brought to her mom's bedroom at night. Yummy treats are never long in coming. Yes, she has whipped things into shape; Piper's shape! 

Here are the newest pictures!

Piper: This is where I sit next to my mommy. She pets me very well. See the bruise on her arm? That's from when she pet me one stroke more than I wanted. I smack her with my teeth because that's how I roll! 

Piper: The things I have to put up with sometimes.. Ok, yes, I do like chasing the yarns that make these things, but that doesn't mean I want to wear them. Confession! I steal these when they are finished and unguarded and toss them all around the house! The can be found in the kitchen, the bedroom, anywhere and everywhere, hee hee!

Piper: Oh yeah, that's the spot.... I love scritchin' time.. purrrrrrrrr

Piper: Smug cat is smug! Yes I am, because I totally got her wrapped around my paw!

Piper: Sorry, not interested in playing string now. Nap time. Stop the flashy flash box and let me sleep!

Piper: Here's my new spot to "Oh wait, I gots ta groom!"

Piper: Nom time! It's about time you gave me my snacky, I'm wasting away to nothing! Or at least merely large.. 

I hope you enjoyed a peek at Piper's Peeps! 

By the way, she's not sick. Cat's with mostly white around their eyes can tend to have weepy eyes, it just is what it is. 

Also, confession time... I told myself all week that I needed to do her post on the 26th, her gotcha day! But now that I look at her first post... But her first post was on the 23rd. And it pointed out that her gotcha day was actually on the 20th. Sigh, I have missed everyone's gotcha/birthday dates so far this year. I think I need to take my brain in for a tune up!

Piper's first post is HERE, and the rest of the story was the next day HERE

Computer Down!

Don't you just love computers? They make everything so much easier and faster... right, yeah, sure... My computer, or I should say, laptop, is sitting in a box in about six pieces at the moment. And it's going to stay there until sometime next week when the new network card arrives..

It had been going on and off for a while, and I should have looked at it sooner, but it totally crapped out the other day so here I am, without my laptop.

How am I making this blog post then? Well, Greg had a laptop that we'd loaned to our niece, Twin 2, so I borrowed it back. But it does not have any of my pictures or photo tools or anything on it, so we're picture-less today.

We will be back next week, fingers crossed! And hopefully in time for a very special day!

See you when we're up and running properly again! Purrs and head bonks until then!
