Whitecat Wednesday

Princess:
First of all... what happened to our pictures in the bloggie entry from yesterday?
How come they are gone?
We are mad at blogger because they are doing something silly with our blog and we are grumpy about that. Sometimes we come to check on our bloggie and our pictures have disappeared.
Okay... so we just replaced the pictures.
As you can see, the tiny red boxes are the "former pictures".

Look at me. Do I look amused? I am not.
I do not enjoy replacing the pictures that we already put up one time.....
hissssss to you Blogger

Today is White Cat Wednesday.

We hope you have a spiff-doodle and happy snappy Wednesday.
It is raining here. Amazing. Rain, oh how we have missed you.
Mommie is skating this morning,a nd when she comes home, we are going to visit, visit visit visit and furthermore.... visit.

It isn't the load that brings us down, it is the way that we carry it.

Toys Toozday

Princess:
Here are two toys that Caesar and I play with most of the time.

We have some others but we like these two.

The bloo one, our big bean sister made for us. It has catnip inside!

Mom is going out visiting all day. She is driving to Warrenton to see a friend, eat some food in a bean restaurant, and shop for toys of her own!
She just left!
When she comes home, she has to make dinner for us, give Caesar his flooids and then go to her french class.

I hope you have a wondermous day today.
We will try to visit tomorrow.
Love and purrrs

Life is a shipwreck

Mancat Monday

Caesar:
Here I am.

Mommie and daddie went to the kollig on Saturday to see Blizziekin play in her Jazz groop.
They took two long videos. One on each camera because they always seem to have something happen with one of the cameras.
Blizzie is on the far left at the ginormus piano

This time mommie's video card got too full because there were some pictures of ME on it. Good thing daddy got the whole performance on his camera.

Blizzie has gotten so amazing that mommie's eyes were leaking from proudness.
These are just pictures snagged from the movies. The movies are too long.
The girl behind the little white box there plays jazzy violin

Happy Monday

Happiness is where we find it
but rarely where we seek it.

Flowers and resting up for the week-end Friday

Caesar:
Here are some olde tired zinnias from our garden. They look kind of cool all brown like this.
They are ready for Autumn too. Hopefully these zinnia's will plop their seedheads into the ground and the new flowers come back next year. Sometimes that happens.


. . . the flowers on the side of the house:

Look at those nasturtium seeds mommie collects every year

Mom likes to pull these seeds off and dry them on a big plate in the morning room.
Then she gives the seeds away to friends. haha last year she gave a little bag of dried seeds to her sister, Joyce. Mommie was sure that Joyce knew that they were seeds.
Later Joyce called her and asked her what sort of nuts they were. hahaha
Mommie told her do not eat them! plant them. hahahaha meeeaow


What a week.
Yes, I am playing the stubborn game. When I see mommie come with my baby foods dish and the flooids bag, I go away. Then sometimes I try to wiggle away while mommie is fooling with the needle. She does not get angry with me.... but she thinks I am being silly and naughty.
Granted, mommie is an old nurse, and she always gets her way and she makes it look like I let her.
She is tricky.

I am going to rest up today so I can be perky this week-end!
z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z

Mommie and dad are driving up to the kollig to see Blizzie play the piano with her Jazz group on Saturday!
Sunday, mommie has to play hand bells will her choir in church. AND lastly, mom has beaucoup de homework. I have to help mom conjugate french verbs this week-end... oh goodie.

We hope you have the very best week-end.
Thank you so much for your lovley comments yesterday.
Be Happy!

Happiness is like a butterfly
which, when pursued,
is always beyond our grasp,
but, if you will sit down quietly,
may alight upon you.

VERY Thankful Thursday

Caesar:

I just want to say thank you today to all of our friends.
You come and visit, even when in our Alzheimer's state of mind, we forget to check on you... then days later we remember and then we feel bad. Sometimes we read your bloggs and forget to comment, because our brains are kind of mushy.


Thank you for liking us even though we do not play with crazy fun toys, or eat Temptations (they make me barf now) or Stinky goodness (we eat Hills *yawn* KD Prescription, unidentifiable mush). We do not jump around much,, we are sort of a bit ricketty... we just sort of snoooooooze the day away... dream about our kitten days.
We have dull medical problems. Sometimes, we walk around and look like little camels with our subq flooids humps.

Thanks so much for the awardies... we need to put them in our sidebar. They are so beautiful.

Lately I have been naughty with mommie and trying to run away when she has the needle in my back. She gets kind of mad and frustrated about that.... now Prinnie is the good girl, and I am mr. wigglypants.

Thank you for being our kitty chums, even though our mommie is always running off someplace, like a fancy indoor ice rink, or French class, or drawing class, or studying, or playing very very bad piano.

I would thank you from the bottom of my heart,
but for all of you
my heart has no bottom.

We really do love all of you, friends.
Your bloggies make us happy. We love how everyone just has their own unique bloggie. Your own special kitty style. We love all of you equally. We have no special favorites. You are all our favorites.

I just thought I needed to say this today. Don't know why, I just did.

Each of you are very important to us. We love all of you loads... huge bag loads of love coming from Prinnie and me!

I would maintain that thanks are
the highest form of thought,
and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.

Our Halloween costume contest submission

We put our costume pictures on the Halloween page.
What great costumes everycat has! We absolutely enjoyed seeing the entries so far!
We will continue to look there everyday to check on the latest entries!
here are ours:
Princess the Outdoor Princess


and Caesar the Ghostie



Ours had to be photoshopped because mom was being cautious. (silly mommie) She thought that if she dressed us up, we might get wild and run and hurt ourselves and maybe break a hip.
She does not like worrying about things like that now the we are 16 and a half years old.

Dreams come true; without that possibility,
nature would not incite us to have them.

Happy Snappy Lundi!

Princess:
Lundi means Monday in French.
Mommie is taking a french class. *snick* she thinks she is so smart.

Today we want to share with you this wonderful taggie we received from Adan!!

We are so happy to receive this! Isn't this great?!!
Adan is a sweet and very loving friend. We wish he and Michico lived right across the street so we could see each other at the window, but sadly they live sooo far away on a pretty island called Taiwan! They are our best friends! Those two are always spreading love!!

Caesar:
We know a bunch of blogs that we would like to give this fancy taggie to... Oh goodness, it is very hard to find someone that has not had this awardie yet!!!!!
we are going to give this awardie to the one and only Tripper the Tabby Psycho kitty.
We like his new blogg and it is fun to read and always happy and silly and of course
colorfull!

Happy Monday everycat!

Psssst!...
Happy MANCAT Monday

When you come to the end of your rope,
tie a knot and hang on!

a Sweeet Awardie, Flowers and Frootbatty Friday

Princess: Dragonheart gave us this wonderful sweet awardie. We are so honored and proud to receive it.
Thank you so much Dragonheart
We have been soo busy this week we could not even remember to tell you about it or pass on the awardie to another kitty!!

We would like to pass on this sweet award to some special kitties.
Storm, Adan, Kaze, NurseFazzie, and Karl!

Caesar:
Thank you sooo much for your prayers and purrs and good wishes for gramma!
she is home and doing so well now. Her bronchitis is improving and she is getting stronger.
She is going to a special heart doctor on Monday and they will put a musheen on her and take a record of her heart. We are just happy that she is improving and home! All of your purrrs worked!

Here are some lovely flowers from gramma's garden. Aren't they nice?
This year gramma says that the wild rabbits did not eat her flowers... they ate her weeds!

She was very pleased with that arrangement, usually she has to put up a tiny fence to remind the bunnies that the flowers are no-no for snacking.

The only way to discover
the limits of the possible
is to go beyond them
into the impossible!

Whitecat Wednesday news

Prinnie:
sorry for this latepost.
Mommie is very busy and tired at the same time. She is taking good care of us and talking on the phone with gramma and grampa, and with her siblingbeans alll the time. They are home, and we are hoping that gramma starts to recover from her bronchitis and that she will get better. Mommie said that the ER doctors said that grammas heart is good even though it has that arrhythmia thing going on. Hopefully she will not have to take pills for that.

Blizzie is coming home today for "fall break" mommie is very happy and so are weeeeeee!
We will try to get around and visit some blogs today. we have been reading many of your blogs but just not commenting. we are so sorry about that. mom is very bad and refuses to assist.
Thank you so much for the purrrs for our grandbeans. We know they have really worked!!
love and purrrs to all of you

Tuesday news

Princess:
Dear Kitties.
Thank you very much for the huge purrs and good wishes for our gramma.
She is HOME the hospital and she had a bunch of tests done. She has irregular heartbeat and will have to take coumadin now... grampa went and got her last evening after dinner.
Gramma told mommie that she was kind of bored, and she was missing her tea and cookies. ...that did sound dreadful :-( so, we are glad that she is home now.

Today mommie.... well, she left already.
She went to take Chrystabelle's boyfriend to the dentist. He is getting some big wisdom teeth in the back taken out. Owie.

Mommie has been very tired. Probably from worrying about her mommie and also talking too much on the telephone with her siblingbeans.

We hope every cat has a spiff doodle day.
We are very sorry we have not been able visit too many bloggies. We have read several of your bloggies but mom will not let us comment.

purrrrs +

click link below* and

Carve your very own pumpiekin!

then post it on your bloggie!!!
We did this one in a hurry...
we can try again later.

Up date on Gramma:
She is going back to thehospital.
She does not feel good this morning.
They called 9-1-1
Mommie was in the teeth surgery office with Jason and as soon as they put him under she felt the need to go home... and got the message on the mashine. She called them quickly and they did not sound good.

Purrrs please please for gramma and grampa :-(

Deskie top meme

We started this meme on Sunday. We hope you enjoy it.
>>Last evening, grampa called and told mommie that gramma fainted in church yesterday as she was stepping out of choir because she was feeling dizzy. She is in the hospital and mommie is going to call grampa today to see how he is doing alone and how gramma is doing. she might drive up to Annapolis and see how things are going. Gramma clunked her head really hard and she had a bunch of tests done. The ambulance crew also thought that gramma was having an irregular heartbeat! We are sooooo werrried!

*****************
******************

We were taggied by MissPeachiekins! KarenJo! and Tiger Lili!!
we are so happy to do this.

Here are the rules for the meme:

Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop!!!!!
It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun. Here’s how you can do a screen capture:

1.Go to your desktop and press the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key).

2.Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and doing a Paste (CTRL + V). If you wish, you can “edit” the image before saving it.

3.Post the picture on your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop if you want. You can explain why you prefer such a look or why it is full of icons. Things like that.

4.Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktops as well.

We immediately took a screenshot, for us Mac users it is so easy [command shift 3] and voila!
(mom is taking a french class, knock yourself out mom...)
here is our compooter screen:


Yeppers, Our grampa and gramma are on our desk top.
This is a picture of them, at their home. They always have a lot of cookies at tea time.
They hve a very big toaster so they can have lots of toast for breakfast and lunch.
They are THE original cookie monsters! and we love them! They are 83 years old.

We do not know Who has not done this... and we were werking on this when mommie got the call from grampa. So, who ever wants to do this... Do it right now. Come back to our bloggie and ask us to come and look at your bloggie, okay?
It is really fun.

Happy Monday Mancats!!

Lord,
give me the wisdom to know what is right
***
and the courage to do it!

Flowers and frootbat Friday

Princess:
What is left of our garden...

We are having a "drought" here and our county just instituted water restrictions...
Since daddy recently renovated our lawn and spent a bazzillion green papers doing it, he is
exempt.
He is allowed to water the baby grass with the sprinklers every other day, and use a watering can on the other day... (odd rule) so, essentially, he is allowed to water our new grass every day.

Our flowers are saying "bye-bye ::waves:: see you next year"

This is Tithonia. It is a tall growing bright orange cheerful flower in the backyard garden!

and these are the snappy happy snapdragons on the side of the house!

and here I am in all of my pink and white frootbatty wonderfulness.
Happy Week-end kitty friends!!

Happiness is where we find it, but rarely where we seek it!

Princess Thursday

Princess:
Yes, me.

It has been a difficult week to get some computer time in.
Mommie has been so busy.

Oh! I have to share this screenshot taken last night at video-chat with gramma and grampa.
Lookie, it is meeeee (I am in the little picture box down on the left)
Look at grampa's head. He clunked it on something .... poor grampa.


We hope all of you, our sweet kittyfriends, are having the best week ever!

Purrrrrs from me... and Caesar too
