I Think Spring Got Lost…..

Standard

Yep – I sure do…….I think Spring got lost on its’ way to our house – and actually to a LOT of people’s houses.   I’m tired of it too – my Mom practically got blown down into the woods this morning while she was filling up the bird/deer/squirrel/whatever feeders in our backyard.  She was filling them up when a BIG gust of wind came along, ripped the bag of sunflower seeds right out of her hands and she lost her footing for a minute.  She could have rolled all the way down the hill (well maybe not quite but it sounds dramatic doesn’t it??).   Point is, the wind is ridiculous.  And Cold.  And ridiculous (oh I already said that).

Sam up on our bed - staking claim to his favorite corner - must be nap time!

Dad I think I just heard Mom yell “HELP” out by the bird feeders!!! 

We want Spring.  Seriously.  Weird week though – brought temps in the 70s, plunging into the 30s and 20s, tomorrow in the high 50s, next couple of days in the 60s then SNOW SHOWERS AGAIN????  HUH?????  Are you kidding me????

I wanna see THIS - not piles of snow or dead leaves or BROWN grass!!!!

I wanna see THIS – not piles of snow or dead leaves or BROWN grass!!!!

***sound of cat hyperventilating*** Oh forgive me……I’m just so ready for the weather to get nice and stay nice.  Mom and Dad are too.  I know lots of you have it a whole lot worse – I read on some blogs that some of you have TWENTY INCHES of snow on the ground and some of you even more than that……so at least I can say we don’t currently have any snow left.  That’s ONE thing I can say “woo hoo” about right?   OK – thanks for letting me vent……..I feel tons better now.   🙂 🙂

Sam Saying HI To The Camera

Yes Mom, I’m talking to you….who else can I whine to about stuff??????

Did you know Monday is St. Patrick’s Day?   I did…..I have two St. Pat’s pawties to go to – the TCC and Cat Scouts.   Not only that but tomorrow I’m in the DOGTONA Speedway car race at Ranger and Stuart’s big barkday party.  That should be a hoot.  And if that wasn’t enough fun – Mollie is having a “naughty underwear” blog hop on the 19th.   So even though the weather stinks, there’s plenty of fun to be had in blogville.  YAY!

I even got all "greened" up at Scouts for St. Pat's Day!

I even got all “greened” up at Scouts for St. Pat’s Day!

So will you be attending any Saint Patrick’s Day parties?  Will you wear something GREEN on “the day”…..Mom says if you don’t, you can get pinched.  I sure don’t want to be pinched so I might let Mom put a green ribbon on me – I said MIGHT!!!!  No promises!!!!

HUGS AND HAPPY WHERE IS SPRING DAY

  2. Oh no, not more snow! Whee have been rather lucky because it seems here, in somewhat normally rainy England, spring has sprung her head (at least for a little bit) but whee can probably safely say that there will be no more snow, yippe! Just lots of rain… Ah well, enjoy the sun while it lasts!

    • Hi Cupcake! If I’d been outside with my Mom when she was filling up those feeders I would have protected her!

  4. Oh, Sammy, you’re certainly not alone in wishing for SPRING! Hmmm….a naughty underwear pawty….?? Well, now, that should be very interesting; I can’t wait to see what you’ll be wearing (wink, wink…!). 😉
    Yes, my pawrents will definitely be wearing green on St. Patty’s Day. Motor Mommy’s maiden name was McGuriman, so it’s a MUST for her!
    Hoping for some sun and warm temps today.
    Love, Sundae

    • Hi Sundae! HAPPY GOTCHA DAY……you certainly landed in the right place didn’t you? Couldn’t have a nicer home NO WAY! I’m glad for you. As for Spring – well – who knows where it is but it better hurry up and get here because I’m tired of waiting. Hoping for sun and slightly warmer temps today though. Yes, Mollie’s having a naughty undies blog hop – only Mollie could come up with that one. My undies aren’t really naughty but they are INTERESTING! 😉

  5. Your weather sounds like our weather. It is so windy here I had to flip the rockers over on the porch. I think Spring is going to misbehave this year. I am tired of brown grass and want to see some green too. And pinks and reds and yellows and purples.. all kinds of bloomies! That picture of you hollering to your Dad, priceless!

  7. We had super bad wind as well, but it has now moved on to you. We are plum tuckered out from this crazy-pants weather. This morning we had a humongous cement truck in our driveway pouring the pad for Mom’s pool. It was really loud so most of us didn’t want to come out from UTB and the other places we are hiding to even have breakfast. Mom is on her way to green up Sampson and Astrid and Mau for the St. Pat’s Day party at Scouts. Sampson has invited Astrid to attend with him. Have a super terrific weekend.

    • Hi Kitties!! I just had a comment here on my bloggy from Sampson – he’s mighty proud to be escorting Astrid to the pawty at Scouts. I’m ready in my greenery too and bringing a few GREEN snackables along. I bet that cement truck made one heck of a BIG noise – I’d have been in the basement with my paws over my ears too!!!

      • Astrid is so tickled that Sampson is taking her to the pawty at Scouts. He has sent her a beautiful bouquet as well. She is the sweetest little cat, and Mommy hates that some of us pick on her. Mom is over the moon that Astrid has another kitty who really, really likes her. We are getting ready to celebrate St. Pat’s Day on the blog on Monday as well as Giulietta’s and Fiona’s 4th Birthdays on Tuesday. Don’t forget to stop by. There’s a special award for efurryone who does. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

  8. I agree with you, the guy on the weather-joystick must be a clown. We first had siberian temperaures and today it is really hot. I will wear a green thingy on monday and maybe we will have an irish meal, but by now we have no idea :o) (dad said Bushmill’s and Guinness, but I’m not sure if we are strong enough for such a menu) Are you ready for tomorrow?

It’s going to be a while here….I’d say we easily still have 3+ feet of snow on the ground. We’re having a warm day today and then 2 cold ones again! I think I’m going to hyperventilate too…..
