Weekend Lounge – Keeping Warm.

It is a chilly 54F/12C here in Tucson aka the Old Pueblo at just past 5:30 a.m. with a high expected today of high 70’s >^..^<

Morning (or Night) MS, Deb and Joan! ….yep, that picture is pretty much what I envision of the agency kitties too 🙂 …. they do work hard to please their hoomans !!

…. I think I’ll have cold pizza for breakfast this morning, since I’ve got to go back in to the on-line marathon …. luckily, I tackled the worse/hardest of the courses yesterday, so I’m hoping today will go smoother …. maybe a better mindset would help too 🙂

…. I woke up with a cramp in my leg today, cause ‘someone’ slept curled up against it all night, and I couldn’t move much without disturbing the princess ….. Abby always gets velcroe snuggly when it’s cold LOL ….

…. ok, hitting the showers and get going … have a great Caturday all!

Good morning! Thanks for opening the weekend lounge, MS. I had a similar sleeping experience with Emily last night, AV. We try to remove the cats at bedtime for the sake of good sleep…but sometimes I don’t have the heart…especially with Emily…she wants to stay so badly.

What a cozy night Mac had. :).

Made pumpkin pancakes this morning…had been craving them since before my cleanse. Youngest son was helping me put the ingredients together when older son came running into the kitchen this morning. He said when he remembered we were having pumpkin pancakes he JUMPED out of bed and RAN to the kitchen…lol. Youngest son wasn’t sure if he like pumpkin pancakes but declared them “glorious” after trying them (with lots of real butter and maple syrup of course.) They get their love of food from their mama. Hubby would rather sleep in than have breakfast. :).

Good Morning,

Nighty night MS-I love that picture! The kitchen kitties are very busy indeed. Joan-I’m so glad Mr. Mac has stayed in again. You can’t help but worry when they live outside in the freezing cold. I really wanted to sleep in but Miss Gaea was in my face about 7 a.m. I managed to get another few minutes but that was all I was getting because LilBit got in my face.

Well, Miss Moppet is more involved with the gang. She was playing with LilBit and Gaea for a few minutes. I called the vet. and explained what’s been happening and he said to watch her. Since LilBit had that fever with no obvious cause she may have an issue as well. Hopefully she just fine.

Have a Happy Caterday and weekend-it’s snowing again and temp is not getting above 20/-6 F/C. Heavy sign 😐

Joan,

Bummer about the leg cramp. I guess you didn’t let Miss Leela warm you up before jumping out of bed. 😆
So far we have about 5″ snow. It seems to bring the cold wind and temps. though. Or maybe it’s the other way around? “They” said it’s going to be a snowy winter here. If I didn’t enjoy living in Colorado so much, I’d become a snowbird! Although, the cold is not fun as I get older.

I hear ya, PG. I like Jersey – mountains, beach, farms, close to NYC etc., but I don’t like the cold wintry weather like I used to.

I keep a teapot on the woodburner to help humidify. That’s how Comet’s tootsies got singed a few seasons ago. He saw it and since he loves to play with water, jumped up – for a millisecond – before realizing it was a bad idea.
So far this year he is sticking with sinks and water bowls.
Guess who stepped inside a short time ago? And he’s smack in front of the woodburner! Comet doesn’t mind, he is in his “nest” behind the pile of wood where it’s plenty warm.

Hehe, reading the newspaper, I like that!
Hubby slept on the couch last night so as not to wake me when he had to get up early this morning – only reason Leela didn’t take her place between my knees. I usually have to do some form of yoga to turn over during the night, often results in a leg cramp. I’m just glad she is back to jumping on the bed. She was reclusive for too long.
Today’s kitten, in addition to being totally handsome, has such a cool name. “Blazing Saddles” is one of my favorite movies.

Evening all! … one more day (tomorrow) to go of the on-line marathon, but then it should be done for another 2 years 🙂 … I’ll soldier through …

… so glad Mac is comfortable enough to ‘step back in’ … he’s a smart boy to know a good place to live and love …. glad the trio is getting along!

… had a nice dinner with family, I made a ginormous greek salad to take, and it was a big hit – only scraps of romaine left … I bought a corned beef to make for tomorrow, I’ll start it when I get up in the crock pot, and let it cook all day …. the house will smell wonderful – should make doing the course at least in an enjoyable atmosphere!

… I am loving decorating this year with all the little led strands of lights I bought, and am finding all sorts of fun places to put them …. in the fireplace, over the mirror in the living room, on the front porch wreath, and intertwined with the candles and table decorations … they are really pretty!

… winding down now and getting sleepy … have a good night everyone!
