PHOTO HUNT ~ ROCKS

We had so many "ROCKS" pictures for

today's Photo Hunt,

we decided to use them all!

FRIENDS FRIDAY

By the way, for those who are asking ~ this is Coco, a work of art by the wonderful Mosaic Lady. Check out her many one of a kind, custom pieces here.

THANKFUL THURSDAY

I am thankful the Zoolatry Human and I had a fun vacation week with the grand girl bean. Yesterday I showed you pictures from my trip to the zoo, and today I am sharing pictures of some of the other fun things we did together last week.

Zoey! I've told you several times, we can't go anywhere until it stops raining! Well, the only reason you don't think it's raining is cause you're using my dress as your rainbrella. And besides, your paw is on my foot - ouch!

Zoey here: up at KSC we got into an old space capsule, but I forget the name of it. It's pretty small. There's my launch manual -- but where's my litter box? There were some awesome rides to go on that make you feel like you're "up in space". I am embarrassed to report they had to STOP the ride so the ZH could get off! But the grand girl bean stayed on and loved it. Then on the way home, the ZH had to pull her car over and she (upchucked) on the side of the road. A policeman came to see if she was OK. The grand girl bean and I were mortified.

Here's me and Maggy, up in space. It's zero gravity you know.

What might usually be down is now up.

I am floating in air and my fur is all funny.

And just look at the tails on Maggy and the lady astronaut!

Here's me with grand girl bean and we are kayaking and yaking.

I'm in the back so I am supposed to steer the kayak, but

sometimes I didn't do too good. I got us into the weeds.

The little girl tried to dig in her oar and get us outta there, and

when she pulled her oar out real quick it dumped seaweed on top

of her head. I laughed and laughed, but she didn't.

One of our other trips was to the Enchanted Forest. It's very nice in there, but it was also very hot and very humid and it was a long, long walk to get out. The grand girl bean wasn't too happy at first: too many spider webs, too many bugs, she kept saying. Get me outta here Gramma, she said. What's enchanting about this place??? But when we were home later, she said, Gramma I think I over reacted, that was a cool place. I mean it was hot, but it was still cool, you know!

ZOEY AT THE ZOO

TUESDAY TAILS

Look at all the tails! Betcha can't tell which tails are Maggys and which tails are mine! We like our big floofy tails. In the middle is my pom-poof: once upon a time, the groomer cut my tail like a poodle-pom-poof. The ZH didn't like it at all and she was very upset until it grew back out. She says our big floofers do a very good job of dusting the floors and table tops. The pom-poof just left streaks in the dust, so she had more work to do. That wasn't good cause she's lazy sometimes.

Last week I noticed that the grand girl bean who had come to visit had quite a floofy tail, too! Except hers is very curly. I think it's pretty with all the curls (I bet Daisy would like it!). Maybe the groomer can curl my tail next time. The ZH would probably complain again though, she'd say that leaves "swirls" in the dust!

THE GUARDIAN

Hi Friends ~ we're back. Great Grandma is home from the Hospice House and all's right with the world. I am back at work too, in my window, watching over her. While she was away, we tidied up her room and freshened it. I promised the Zoolatry Human that I would stop chewing on the oxygen tube and chasing all the other cords that are everywhere (that was a difficult promise to make, it will be even harder to keep it!). The great grandma is still a little bit confused, she thinks she's in the hospital. She was a registered nurse in her younger days and she wonders why they allow cats in the hospital. The ZH keeps telling her it's OK, that this is our home where we all live together. And the ZH also had a really fun week with the grand girl bean, they went lots of places and did lots of things together. Bye for now...

IT'S GONNA BE A HO HUM KIND OF DAY
