Happy Kitty Cats

July 31, 2020

Good morning.  It's cloudy outside right now.  Temps are supposed to climb into the mid eighties later today.  And I imagine the sun will be shining soon.  I keep hoping for a bit of rain, but it's no cigar.  (now there's a phrase you don't hear very often anymore)

I've been up for hours, but I've been busy.  I crocheted for a while, then made breakfast.  There were some interesting things in my email so I spent some time reading.  My friend Kyra sent me a link with information on screenshots, so I'll be giving that a try after I'm done with blogging.  Thanks, Kyra.

Deanne sent me a photo that Eddie took on his way home from work the other day.  He knows that I love to stop along the way when I'm out and take photos of birds and other animals.  So now when he sees something that he thinks I'd like, he stops and takes a photo.  Thanks, Eddie.


I need to make a correction to my post this past Wednesday, when I said that Kevin was in Boston when the photo was taken.  He was actually at the brand new Encore Casino in Everett, MA.

Earlier this summer, Eddie made a kitty screen room on the outside of one of their windows so that the kitties could get fresh air whenever they wanted to.  Let me tell you, those kitty cats just love it!  Here are Nutmeg and Pickles enjoying their screen room.



Doesn't it just make your heart happy to see our fur babies living the good life?  Nutmeg looks a little bit annoyed at being disturbed while she was sun bathing.  Oh well, she'll get over it.

Yesterday I did not get very much accomplished.  It was just one of those days where I was tired all day.  Today seems to be a much better day.  It's a bit cooler today so I just might sit out on the porch for a while.  Maybe I'll take my rocks out there and try to draw outlines on them.  I'd really like to have at least some of them done before Christmas gets here.  

Dwarf Mikey has just completely retired and will be getting social security shortly.  He's also giving up his car.  We are right on the bus line, so a car isn't really a necessity.  It will be nice having someone around the house a lot.  Although if it were me, I'd have kept my car.  My car is my freedom.  Even if I don't drive it often, I can if I want to.  So, as long as I can still drive, my car will sit right outside my door.  It's a personal decision though, so to each his own.

Now I'm going to do a bit of blog reading.  So, till Sunday, Y'all stay safe and have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.

P.S.  For those of you who don't know about the dwarfs, it goes way back to when I first started blogging.  I run a rooming house, and all the tenants were men.  Someone made a reference to Snow White and the seven dwarfs.  So I decided to refer to the tenants as dwarfs rather than post their names.  (for privacy reasons)  Now I sometimes give their first name or nick name.

Those cats have a great life, with their screened room wow!

I know how it feels to have a day, that you feel all the time tired and it is difficult to get anything done. Lucky for us there are also other days we feel a lot better, yippee!

It will really be nice to have someone around the house more, when Mike will be a pensionado!
Just the knowing someone is often there can feel reassuring.

In about an hour or so Jan and I will have dinner, easy and quick, Just have to put it in the oven and done!

Enjoy your proch time, have a lovely day
Hugs
Kyra

I was about to ask about the dwarfs, thanks for explaining! I truly love the kitty spaces! I hope you are having a wonderful day! BIG HUGS!

I remember asking you about the dwarf's and this brought back loads of giggles.
It's pouring rain here and Nathan walked to the drug store to get my medicine. So he is probably soaked by now.
I will call you as soon as the thunderstorm passes.

No rain in New York either, though most of the day was overcast. Visited with friends in park during the day and grocery shopped, so I feel I've accomplished something. Still tired after moving everything around my apartment, but glad to have the worst behind me -- I hope! Take care.

The kitties are adorable. I love the pose Pickles is in - really taking in the good life.
