Sleeping In On Saturday

Mommy had a five hour delay in Atlanta 'cause a runway caught on fire yesterday. (Yikes!) This caused a lot of back-ups with flights and there were a lot of cranky beans. Mommy did not get home till the early hours of this morning. She was very tired. She did tell me that Monty is home! We are all so very happy. I predict a nap or two with Mommy today. So even though Friday was not the best way to start a weekend, we are going to make the most of what we have left!
Welcome back Monty! Please don't ever do that again!

Sad and Glad

I don't know how to feel today. I am very glad that Mommy is flyng home and we get to see her for 4 whole days. But I am very sad because one of my friends will be kindly helped to the Bridge today. Please visit Buzzerbee and Meeps blog and let them know they are in your thoughts and prayers. Godspeed Buzz - we will miss you.

Travel safe Mommy, we can't wait to see you.

Secret Paws Saturday

Looks As Though Some Kitty Is Gonna' Have Some Mail!

Mommy went to PetSmart today and got the goodies for my Secret Pal! I hope they like their loot! AND! we got 'nip, treats and a new toy as well. It's a very good day here in the middle of the U.S.A.

It's hot as H E double hockey sticks, but Mommy is home, treats are being doled out with a liberal hand and I am napping on my new Gizzy quilt (photos of me and my quilt soon). It really doesn't get much better than this! I hope everykitty is having a great weekend. And, Tripper, if you read this, "Hi, you big handsome tabby! I wish you had your very own blog... "

Thursday 13 Edition 5 - Cat Comebacks

Reasonable Comebacks To Why Every Home Should Have A Cat or 4

1. It is a proven fact we can lower blood pressure by our mere presence.
2. We are the ultimate accessory in home decor.
3. We are easier to care for than a houseplant.
4. We are the "soul" of a home.
5. We don't require an owner's manual or an extended warrenty.
6. We ask very little, but we give a lot.
7. We appreciate the simple things and don't crave expensive toys.
8. Cats know that love IS the answer.
9. We don't care if you wear WalMart or Dior, you always look beautiful to us.
10. Name another living thing that can purr away a worry.
11. We pass no judgements on the world, we just want peace.
12. Cats know that a good nap can be a cure-all for everything.
13. We'll never ask you if you've gained weight, got that raise yet or changed the oil in the car.

Bonus "thing" - We're always ready for a good snuggle!

PeeEss - Hi Mommy! Welcome home! Wanna' snuggle? It's been a sad week and I am ready to cuddle and play with you...and hey, you got any treats in that suitcase? Just wondering...

Mommy here - I'm here for FOUR WHOLE DAYS! Parker & sibs are going to get worn out from the smoochies and snuggles. My heart has been breaking this week for all of our friends who have had such sorrow and sad news. I am going to enjoy the blessings I have in the here and now. I hope you all do the same.

Let the snuggles begin!

Was It Worth The Hassle? You Betcha'!

Mommy made it home safe, sound and a little frazzled. She only was a hour and a half behind her original arrival time. She told Daddy she has used up all of her bad word allotment for 2007. I waited my normal 3.5 seconds (I had to show her I was mad that she had been gone!) and then the snuggle-fest began! It's going to be a nice weekend, no plans, just lots of relaxing and being together as a family.

Since we are so close to Kansas, I will close with an old, but very true quote.

There's No Place Like Home!

Thrilled Thursday 13 - Why I like It When Mommy Comes Home

Mommy will be taking the big silver thing home and will be lovin' on all of us this evening!

Here's 13 reasons that this is a good thing!

1. It's like the world's furriest pajama party. We all get to play and snuggle in the big bed!
2. Treats, lots and lots of treats!
3. She cooks more than Daddy. I like to snoopervise from the chair in the kitchen.
4. She knows all of our best skritchy spots.
5. She sings to me, I love Motown in Mommy's voice!
6. She plays tinsel wand a lot longer than Daddy will.
7. MMMMmmmmmm, paw massages!
8. Sheet mice time!
9. Mommy moooshes our stinky goodness just right!
10. She plays "chase the kitty" and "what's in the bag?"
11. She might take a nap or two in the afternoons! Heaven!
12. She likes salmon for dinner, Daddy will grill it for her and we all get some!
13. This trip, she has no "outside appointments" and will spend lots of time with us!

Bonus thing, Knowing we are loved so very much makes us very happy!
