Too Cute

It's been raining.

The Fall weather has arrived.

Leaves on the ground.

Drops leaking all around.

Cats, if they could, would not be happy.

For now, they are napping

or getting in trouble.

Riley, my orange boy,

would be doing that.

When isn't he .. oh,

when he's napping.

Hope you had a nice week.

Remember to Dance

when you can.

Wet Fall Day In The Woods

It is a wet yucky day in my woods.

Fall has arrived and it's moist.

Leaves all over the yard.

I even had to turn the heat on.

Just to warm the house up.

 

 

Meredith is near the vent.

She loves keeping warm.

 

 

Jodie Belle is wet.

She goes out each morning.

No matter what kind of weather.

Her furs curl up.

Collie's do that.

She's on her blanket on the chair looking out the window.

Not the kind of day you play in.

Maybe later, she and Maddy Jean

will go play in the wet dirt.

Oh, won't that be fun to clean up.

I greet them at the door with paper towels

to clean up those paws.

 Coffee in my cat cup.

Having lots of little cups.

Having trouble waking totally up.

Maybe it's just the dark wet day.

 

 

Fall .. again, I say, where did Summer go ?

Shall I Put An Add In The Paper

It's been a productive day.

Sort of.

Got this clean.

Dusted that shelf.

Put that pile in recycling.

Rinsed out those bottles.

Tons of magazines are

waiting in my car for their ride

to the local paper bin.

All those indoors,

it's too cold to go outside,

kind of things.

I did try though.

I walked to get the mail.

Have a long driveway.

Got the garbage back in.

Long driveway thing .. again.

Looked at all the fallen leaves.

Do you step on them ?

To hear the crunch and then walk weird

so that your next step hits another crunchy one ?

I sat out back with Mere and Maddy Jean

with my new mag and a cool drink.

Only for a few moments though

The sun .. it moved.

Now, I'm in looking up a new coffee

that I read about.

Thought that I really do need to buy a new machine.

Mine drips all over.

 I gave up and

have an old blue towel under it.

Thought it was important for it to drip.

 At least to the coffee machine,

 so who am I to complain.

So, I'm looking for a new.

Does anyone love what they have ?

What kind of coffee do you like ?

Mondays With Meredith Ann

My furs are all floofy.

I went on another Fall walk.

Mom made sure I didn't get my furs wet.

Here I am sitting on the hot tub.

I even looked at Mom when she called my name.

I was just in a good mood.

Probably due to all the leaves that were falling. 

It was chilly but not rainy.

Mom let me stay out for a long time.

She was looking at a couple of magazines.

My favorite dog was with us.

She's feeling better.

Mom watched her all week.

Now, she's playing like normal.

Til Next Week,

Mondays With Meredith Ann

I know

I'm bee you tea full

The Mom was trying

oh so hard

to get a frontal photo of me

Nope, a side view

was what she got

I was too busy

sitting on the deck

at the beach place.

No rain

Just October weather

A bit of sun

mixed with the clouds

Mom said if Fall

and Winter could be like this

She wouldn't mind

Neither would I

I'm home now

The rain started in again

That's what photos

and memories

are for

Til Next Week

This is

Fall In The Northwest

It's rainy

It's wet

It's yucky out

It's Fall in the Northwest

Meredith Ann and I are at the beach place

She loves it here

Lots of room to run and nap

Two of her favorite things

Really, she does like to run around the halls

Especially likes to sing in the bathroom

I think it's the echo effect

and that she likes to hear her own voice

Maddy Jean likes it here too

Running around the yard

Barking at the Seagulls

Jasmine decided to come with

Which means, I got her before she hid under the bed

She's been singing too

I'm going to spend a quiet weekend

Drinking tea

And, reading my book.

I leave one here just for that.

Saw one new dog on petfinder

that might fit in with our crazy home

It's out here by the beach area

I might call them

And, that is my update on this

very wet Friday

~ JC & Meredith Ann ~

Monday Memories

Although it is only Sunday night, I have decided to remember Monday and the memories I have of Summer. I put together a few pictures from my Ocean vacation. Some of the grass, a couple of the sand and of course the Ocean. I added the crane from my little beach place. Just cause I got a close up of it with my new camera which I think is about the coolest thing ever.

Fall is here. It was cold this morning. Fog was coating the hills. By mid morning, the sun was warming me up again but it was that thought of thinking about turning the heat on. Just that thought .. means that Summer is gone. Oh but not forgotten ..

I know that what I did this Summer only exists in my world. The things I saw. The way it made me feel. The smell of the air. The water rolling in. The moment that I ran back and forth collecting shells. Those all belong to me.

I wanted you to see .. what I saw ... what I felt ... for just one more moment.

On this Monday that I think is meant for Memories ...

(Oh and you are welcome .. I did it for you as much as I did it for me )
