Cat Puke


I've always had cats around and am no stranger to cat puke.
Rafe in particular seems to have this issue fairly often.
So...I hear him start to make that oh so familar sound and thinking I can get him outside in time,
proceed to pick him up.
OH, that was real smart.
NOW I get to clean cat puke off the wall as WELL as the carpet.

Rafe says.....dumb meowmie!

Something fun

I've seen this in a few other blogs I read including, Isfullofcrap and LisaViolets Diary.
I think I had forgotten that I even grew up in the disco era until I saw the list for 1978.
I think this is why I was listening to country back then.

You can get your own list from Music Outfitters.
Just put the year you graduated from high school in the search box. Then copy and paste the list into your blog. Strike-out the songs you hated, make bold the ones you liked and leave the rest alone.
Underline and make bold your very favorite song.
Have fun...PJ:)

Jury Duty?

I got an official looking letter in the mail today with a short questionnaire informing me that I am being considered as a potential juror for the Federal Grand Jury.
Maybe they will have enough middle-aged unemployed Caucasian females already and I won't be needed there....Right!

shoes

Wow, I was so proud of myself!!!!!!
I went shoe shopping and I didn't buy any!
Maybe it was because we were shopping for John, he needed new work boots.
Or maybe it's because John was with me and I like to shop for shoes by myself.
Or MAYBE, it was enough to just try on 10 or 12 pairs of really cute sneakers, loafers and mules.
Hey, maybe I can get my fix just trying on shoes and not really buying them.
Now, that is something I never thought about before....:)

Rafe says.....






I Don't THINK she can find me












Well, at least her arms are kinda short

Grandkids

My granddaughter Gelsey is visiting from New Jersey and couldn't wait to try her hand at fishing.

First I showed Gelsey how to catch a crab.
She got her fat chicken leg tied on a string.

Once a crab grabbed it tight, her Daddy brought it up in the net

Mr. Crab was well....a little crabby!



Then when PaPa got home he helped her do some
"reel" fishing...:)

It was not long before she yelled "I GOT ONE"

Gelsey caught the biggest little fish all day!

The Apprentice

While I am NOT so patiently awaiting the new season of "The Apprentice"
I have been reading The Donald's Blog.
Sadly, I found it rather uninspiring, but will check it out from time to time.

At the Movies

Chandra and I saw March of the Penquins yesterday.
The story is very sweetly told by Morgan Freeman and the photography was just amazing.
I would recommend it for ages 3 to 103.
but......
Don't forget the tissues.
