You can get the seeds at Homie Depot in the spring.

Pierro: Happy day, happy snappy week-end

Miles:
Hey bronks kitties
I spent the whole week-end playing in my tunnel.

It is right in the middle of the family room so it is great fun to create a ruckus while the family is trying to talk or watch tv.

Pierro:
I napped in the sunshine

Have a bonkiful Monday

Frootbat Friday

Pierro:
It all started on top of the 'fridgerator
Miles was being an orange menace.

I said, "lets take this to the window, Miles"...

Miles: Yay I love to wrestle
watch out Pierro, orange alert orange alert!!

Pierro: I gave him a good chomp to the neck

Miles: I pushed him off and whapped him

ooops, and then I went back too far
and bronked on my butt


Pierro:
well, that was fun. we have to work on that later, Miles

Have a bonkful week-end everykitty

Frootbat Friday

Pierro Happy Friday Kitties

It is so hot in Furrginia, everything outside is boiling hot
but we are cool and comfy in our house - even laying in the sun on my bloo blankie is bonkbonk delightful!
Tomorrow is going to be a 100,000,000º outside and mom said she is going to relax on the couch and let us finally have some time to not only just read your bloggies, but we get to comment!! (oh my have we stooped so low to appreciate the tiniest of efforts lately...)


Miles yeah hothottie-hothot, I will stay in the shade under the table
~and think about stuff... for instance: with this extreme heat, and the stress it is having on our "electrical power grid" what will happen when everybean is plugging in their expensive electric car?
Has anybean thought about that?

mom has to go out into the hots this afternoon for her PT appointment
She is going to park her car in the shade.
Bronkbronkies for a happy day

Frootbat Friday

Miles: Yippppeeee it is Friday, kitties
I hope you had a very bronkiegood week


Pierro: mom went to the bone doctor and found out she has a squished disc in her lumbar spine. She has been a little crabby about that because she never gets hurtie. She thinks she probably got it from gardening and digging in the soil of Furrginia that is hard as concrete at times --

and NOT from skating and falling on her butt a couple of times hahabonkbonk

we hope you have a cool and comfy day and a
fun week-end full of cuddles and pets

Pierro:
Happy Monday kitties!
How are you feeling?
I am feeling great!!


Miles:
I am feeling sleepy
being good is hard work

Happiness is a grateful spirit,

an optimistic attitude,
and a heart full of love.

Miles is home and Friday frootbats

Miles:
Hello fellow kitties.
I am home from kitty prison

I am very sorry for breaking the law of flowers.

Mom and dad are not mad at me. In fact, Pierro and I got some new toys!!!

Pierro: Miles and I are very happy to be back at our house with our servants.
It is good to be back home with all of our toys, sunny windows and snuggles

Have a bonkbonkful Friday and a sunny week-end

ps: mom says she is so sorry that she has not been helping us visityour blogs. She has been busy with many things and has very little time to help us. (*sigh*) the sweet ladygirl across the street with the cancer is doing okay, she is very weak and the tumors in her head are sometimes causing pain. Mom feels pretty sad about this and she tries to help a lot over at their house. She has a lot of family there helping out, but mom knows that she appreciates a good friend face now and then. Mom's garden is looking quite nice here are a few pics:

the side of the house garden, yes, the air conditioner is here but this is a lovely garden view for the very sick neighbor

Mancat Monday

Pierro:
greetings everykitty

Miles and I had to go to jail because Miles broke the law about flowers.
so, I had to go and be with him to be brave. It was kind of cool, I got to watch some people do surgery on a doggie and other medical stuff.
and then I got to go home early.

Honestly... I was really not happy about this and I let mom and dad know exactly how I felt when we got in the car... I was in that black prison box and guess what I did next?

I peed. I got my pee all over the car seat and the blankies and moms hand (dad was driving) and boy did I ever stink! haha

Miles is coming home today.
I can't wait to have my brother home. then we can compare stories and scars.

--> they shaved my arm!!!

bonks for a happy day and find a good place to hide tonight.
Mom always puts on moderately loud ballet music on the evening of the 4th of July, we also get to eat junk food. It is kind of a nice party. I am excited for Miles to come home and celebrate junkfoodballetmusic with me.

Sunday morning update:

I just called the hospital. Both boys are doing okay. Neither Miles or Pierro are eating anything... much. They are both still receiving IV fluids. They are having a blood test this morning and if Pierro's blood work comes back good - as it has been, then he can come home this evening. Miles is doing well, and will continue another day of fluids since he did indeed ingest lily parts and we want to insure that his kidneys are protected.
That is it really.
The doc that I spoke with today on the phone confused Pierro with Miles and I had a difficult time getting correct information. basically as true to their character, Pierro is sweet and submissive and Miles is nervous. Miles is so big and brave but he shakes pitifully when he is nervous. He is not hiding. Anyway, it was confusing today on the phone: which boy ate a little bit of grilled salmon and who was "polite" for examination. Don't they keep absolute records of this? Back in dino days when I did a few years of hospital nursing, we recorded every sneeze... Well, if they were in a very bad situation at this point I probably would have gotten upset about this, but I believe they are out of the woods and just staying in a very fancy hotel with supreme room service.

I slept like a log last night. It is so quiet in our house, but I am taking advantage of this situation and have bleached and scrubbed the bathtub haha
I hope everyone has a lovely day. I do believe we are completely "out of the woods" here. I just want my boys home, I do not even want to think of the $$bill. We will adjust and manage though, this is just one of life's bumps in the road - and we always learn from those bumpy things.

Life is a traveling to the edge of knowledge,
then a leap taken.
