THANKFUL THURSDAY ... and SUNSHINE


I must say I have certainly enjoyed many days this week, sitting here in my rounder,
thankful for the sunshine on my shoulders.

Meanwhile, mine Mommy is more or less, emphasis on the more, wondering why our
temperatures remain in the mid to high 80s and saying "where went autumn" and why are all
the trees on Charles Street still full, lush and green?  It's too, too hot!

So, she is mostly in absentia, off in her my pretend Tea Party Garden, washing tea cups,
dusting tables, arranging flowers and just whatever she must do to ensure
it is just right for our guests ~ are you coming?  I hope so, meowz.

BOOLATRY IS ON BREAK TODAY

 So here is just a purrty picture of a purrty girl ~ June.


And her mine Mommy is writing this morning.
Noting she may look purrty, calm, even innocent.  But truth be told ...

To bed last night, with all the city lights illuminating the room,
I could see her little ears as she sat in her window rounder.

This morning ... the dozen or more spring toys that once were there
on the ledge, had been reduced to less than six.
The two furry mice, one gone.
A blue jingle ball, missing.

If I had any intent [probably not] of dusting & vacuuming today,
a search-and-rescue must take place for
spring toys, mice and a jingle ball before mr. dyson even comes out of the closet.

It seemed to me this purrty little girl had been very busy all night long.
Don't you agree?
This is life with a kitty cat.

MONDAY. COFFEE.


It's Monday.
Who knows what we will do next.
Does anyone ever plan a Monday day.
I do not.  Mine Mommy does not.
We just wait and see ...
Let's have another cup of coffee ...

REPONDEZ S'IL VOUS PLAIT

No, I do not speak, read or write French, 
and yes, I should have called on many of my friends
who live across the pond and do!  
They, of course, would have at the very least, guided me
as to where to place my "tremas or umlauts".  
But then, we Americans are not known these days
for being all that friendly, sigh ... 
Me ... I am friendly.
Yes, I am ... Meowz.


I was so happy when mine Mommy brought up the mail yesterday.
I meowed out loud all over Charles Street!
So many of you have already RSVP'd for our Tea Party
~ and I think a few more are still pondering it ~
meowz.

I am shooing the mice away,
ironing linen napkins,
polishing sterling silver, and
bringing down the Wedgwood tea cups from the top shelf ...

Before I leave today, I wanted to share a little update on mine Mommy's health condition, she is doing a little better, day by day.  She's still in physical therapy, concentrating on her back and hip issues, all on the left side and her internist approved a higher dose of OTC meds which has helped a lot with her pain.  I did notice that makes her sleep/nap a lot more ~ though I refuse to let her share my blankie basket with me ~ anyway.  Because it's all on her leftie-side [not that I truly understand that] she can use her mousie [I'm not allowed to play with that one] and do photoshop, she's right-pawed.  But it hurts to raise that left arm up to type a lot, even this here ... so she does only what she must. So, sorry, I'm still not purr-mitted to wander 'round and visit friends ... guess I'll just see you when I see you, meowz from June.

YOU'RE INVITED TO A TEA PARTY



Yes, we're having a Tea Party, and we'd like you ~ any, all of you to attend.

To R.S.V.P. to our invitation, here's all you need to do ~

Anytime, between now and Oct 20, email us your best picture, 
wearing your finest hat ~ a Mad Hatter, or other hat ~ a full shot of you, or head shot,
your own design, or AI generated.

If you're not up to making such a picture, you can also send us your picture [no hat],
and we'll make one for you ~ we ask for these as soon as possible please!  
If we design pictures for you, we'll email back to you
so you can post if you wish [no obligation to do so].

Only one guest per family please, and when you send us a picture,
be sure to include your name and the name of your blog.

And remember, no nibbling on those mushrooms near our
cottage door ~ Alice is unable to attend, she's way to tiny and we couldn't
find her anywhere, and that Cheshire Cat has promised to be
on best behavior.  
And we'll all share tea Friday, October 23. 
Questions?  Just ask!  Mad Meowz!

BEWITCHED


I'm a little more
bothered and bewildered 
by how that "other witch" got into my picture!


Speaking of being "bothered",
I should be the one in PURPLE!
I mean really - my guys are 3-1 in the AFC North right now,
that's tied for 1st place, keep it up.
GO RAVENS!
