Blue Eyed Beauty

Jodie Belle

I'm having my second cup of coffee this meowning.
Jodie is playing with a catnip toy.
She was chewing an old Harbor Freight Tools paper.

She is keeping me busy, tired, and thrilled.

Maddy Jean is getting used to her.
She waits in the yard for me to get
Jodie down the stairs.
(She hasn't managed going down them yet)

They play together and Maddy Jean
gets Jodie Belle to come back up
on the deck to come inside.

Last night they slept together.
Which means, I slept through the night.

I now can think of what I need to be doing.
That 'List' of mine.

With the Holidays over.
One child back to college.
Another one leaving in a day.
I now will start the cleaning
of the house.

We still have all our Holiday decorations up.
Been too busy to have time to take them down.
That will be my 'List' for this week.

Jodie is gated off to the kitchen/hallway areas.
She has her own bed and toys.
Maddy Jean stays with her most of the time.
Maddy does get annoyed with Jodie chewing
and jumping on her.
I remind her to be kind.

I think things will work out.
Youth and Old Age,
Do they mix ?

Til Next Time,
~ JC ~

The LOOK says it all ...


On this Frosty Cold Friday MEOWning, I thought you'd ENJOY an update on the DECORATING of this OLD CAT HOUSE ... it's coming along. Spent another day getting the Village Houses out of the attic. Again, who thought of putting in a half sized door. You have to bend over and actually put your leg through the door cause otherwise you have to crawl in. Oh, and don't forget as you leave to bend over again and put that leg out the door ...
 fun times ...

I got all of the houses put up. Some are on the entry hall table the others are on the fireplace mantel in the family room. It takes a long time to take them out of the boxes and put the boxes back upstairs. Arrange them and put the lights in them. Mr. Boatman came home and rearranged the lights for me ...
 he's so handy that way.

Jasmine Marie was the Holiday Snooperviser ..
I think they are taking turns.

Oh and I have to mention this ... My son's High School Football team is playing for the State Championship tonight. I think that is pretty darn cool. We aren't a big rich school. Just a small school that nothing ever happens to ... Wouldn't it be nice if the underdog wins ... I sure hope they do !!!

You all ENJOY your Weekend ... I plan on it ...

Holiday Photos


Meredith Ann helped me with the Holiday lights

This is what I've gotten done so far

Thought I'd show you what my new candleholders look like

Aren't you glad you came by to visit ...

 

There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all of the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for those who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living.
