Monday Stuff

Standard

Hi Everybody!   Hope you all had a good weekend……….we had another pretty one – Fallish but not TOO Fallish – Coolish but not TOO Coolish…..just right!

It looks like from the poll that the most votes went to my having a BEST COSTUME CONTEST for Halloween so that’s what it’s gonna be!   I’ll also have another event going on which will be something fun to do but not a competition.  The Costume Contest, however, will be competition and all of you will be voting for your favorites and the winner will be getting a prize…..YAY……we all love prizes right?   So start thinking about your costumes – I know you probably are saying “but Halloween is so far away” – well guess what gang….it isn’t !!

I’m happy to tell you that we have another Guest Teaser for tomorrow’s Tuesday Teaser…………….yes indeedy and you’d better be ALERT if you wanna win the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER badge because our friend Easy is back from his blog vacation and you know he’s the guy who is poised at the ready when my Teaser appears on his computer at home in Brittany so WATCH OUT!

This Friday my Mom is going to visit her sister and sister-in-law up in the mountains of West Virginia and won’t be home until Sunday.  That means me and Dad will be hanging out together doing guy stuff Friday and Saturday.   The problem for me is always the lap nap thing.  Yes I have to admit that Mom’s lap is way more comfy than Dad’s is.  I’ll probably have to resort to couch naps or bed naps or rug naps.  Dad is too squirmy to be a good “bed”……a guy can’t get any decent nap time in.  Mom’s the best – she won’t budge until it’s ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to disturb me.  Even if her legs fall asleep or she needs to visit the “necessary room” – or go to the kitchen to work on something for dinner – she’s a real trooper!

I’ll have to get Mom to get some posts lined up for me while she’s gone because my Dad’s useless on the compawter…….I think he MIGHT know how to turn it on but after that?   Forget about it!  😀

Well it’s the start of a new week so let’s make it a good one – whatcha say?

KITTY HUGS, YOUR PAL SAMMY

    • Nothing like a nice warm lap eh? We know that human laps are better heating pads than any of that electric pad stuff don’t we Austin?! Yes – be ready for the Teaser tomorrow – remember it pops up later than my other posts! See you then!

  2. Moms definitely understand the value of sitting still when we’re napping, Sammy. You got that right! Thank goodness you’ll only have to work with your dad for a couple of days. It sounds doable.

    • I agree Cupcake…..I think I have my Dad well trained when it comes to most things when Mom’s not here but he will need nudging just a bit. He doesn’t understand that I NEED to have my litterbox cleaned the instant I use it for instance……or that when I scream at the bottom of the stairs it means “please come help me get upstairs – NOW!”……Moms are WAY more easily trained I think…….

    • Why THANK you Miss Stellarose……..how nice of you to say so! I’m in pretty good shape for a 13 year old – maybe the daily brushing, coddling, spoiling, etc. is contributing to that????? Mostly it’s because I’m one very happy cat I think….glad you enjoyed the photos!

  4. Too much cute Ginger to handle this morning Sammy. You are so sweet looking all sleepy. Hoomins not allowed to move when kitty is on lap. That is where husbands come in handy for “honey can you get me a snack and something to drink, I couldn’t think of disturbing Sammy”. Enjoy your Monday Sammy. Your Mom’s vacation sounds fun! We leave for Tennessee soon.. 🙂

    • Yee Haaaa! Lotsa birthday trips coming up huh Miss Pix? Are you going to be in TN the rest of the week??? You’re right about Dads coming in handy – when Mom’s away I have to rely on him AND when Mom’s HERE, he’s in charge of keeping her supplied with whatever she needs so I don’t get disturbed…..it’s not a bad deal!

  6. We love your contests, Sammy! Maybe this year we can get our mummy to dress us up for Halloween. We hope your mummy has a wonderful trip to West Virginia. I know you’ll miss her but maybe you and your daddy can have some good father-son quality time. Love from Simone the collie and Eddie & Lucy the JRs.

    • Oh Boy!! A bunch of SCARY Terrell pups – that would be a good addition to the contest AND your first time pawticipating too! YAY! You’re right about my Mom’s little trip – she deserves some “girl time” – hanging around with me and Dad all day long – well – it’s just not the same is it?!?!?!?!

  7. Fallish&Coolish is much better than Freakish&Foolish I think. I can’t wait for Halloween and a costume contest sounds GRRRREAT! Is it only for pets or for the staff too? I understand your problem, Sammy. A mom-less time is hard to bear. Dad’s are for boy-things, like catching a mouse or for a bed-BBQ- but mom’s are the best head rests and nap places. Have a great monday, I’m just flipping through all my catalogs for tomorrow :o)

    • Oh gosh Easy, I hadn’t thought about having humans pawticipate in the contest – I think humans are in pretty weird costumes in the first place – all that naked, furless (mostly) skin – wrinkles, warts, freckles, that’s quite a “costume” they have compared to our beautiful, sleek, furry or hairy or fluffy bodies. Anyway, I think we’ll just do anipals. I’m worried about Mom leaving me alone here with Dad for two days BUT you just went over a week without your Mom and survived….if you can do it so can I !!! Catalogs at the ready? Good!

    • Hi Nissy…….Not sure about a BBQ – it’s been a bit chilly for that – usually when Mom’s away Dad eats lots of stuff that has beans in it because he’s forbidden (for reasons which shall remain nameless) from eating lotsa beans when Mom’s here. BBQ’d bacon DOES sound rather yummy though….I may see if he’ll BBQ some in the oven. Where there’s a will – there’s a way!

  9. Sammy that sounds like a busy week and your Mom will have a great time! Don’t get too upset, we know you never like when she leaves you but maybe you can beg her for an extra special treat? What do you think? Start working on that now, my friend 🙂 (Actually, looks like you already started – smart boy!)

    • Mom has already put “bacon provision” on the list of stuff Daddy is NOT NOT NOT to forget while she’s gone. You’d think from my whining she was leaving for WEEKS instead of just two days! HAHAHA

    • Hi Miss Layla…..this whole week is supposed to be beautiful here – I’m glad it will be nice for my Mom’s mini-trip. She’s got a book-signing in Pennsylvania on Saturday and it’s supposed to be beautiful THERE as well as in W. Virginia where my Auntie Carol is! There will be one dark cloud over my house though Friday and Saturday because – sniff – Mom won’t be here!!!

  10. Sammy looks like you and your Dad are gonna have some “man” time together. Well I think you’re right, especially if your Dad is anything like my Dad. He doesn’t know a website from a cobweb. So better get your Mom to do that extra posting for you while she is gone visiting!

  11. Whenever our mom goes away and the dad guy takes care of us, we get some really good foods…like KFC! Maybe you’ll get some good foods too, Sammy!

    We gotta start thinking about our costumes for your contest.

  12. We think you should make Easy be the guest posting a Teaser or two. That would give the rest of us an opportunity to win, not that we ever guess correctly. So a costume contest. That’s always fun, but we were hoping for something more challenging, like poetry. So our mom is like yours, Sam, she’ll almost wet herself before she makes us get up off her lap. We like our dad, but Mommies are the best. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

    • Well, Easy DOES have some kind of magic when it comes to the Tuesday Teaser, it’s true, but he’s not ALWAYS first…..he’s almost always right though!! 😉 Today – who knows?! I’m not saying until tomorrow. Mom said to tell you maybe she’ll do more than one contest for Halloween……even though the costume contest won the poll, the other two things: pumpkin decorating and poetry got votes so I’ll keep you informed about what we’ll be doing…keep your poetry warmed up! HAHAHAHAHA

    • It’s still fun even if you don’t know where the Teaser is – some people have said they learn a lot from the Teasers anyway and get to see places they wouldn’t have seen otherwise so it’s FUN no matter what!! Happy Tuesday!
