It can’t pawsibly be a whole week since that noisy old monster thing was whipping around here can it? Where does time go? I guess I’d better just accept the fact that it’s cleaning day again and put on my headset and listen to some tunes while THE THING does its’ thing.
Other than that, nothing going on around here today except COLD. Like I said in my blog yesterday, it’s tough to imagine Spring starts March 20th. We’ve got a LONG way to go for it to FEEL like Spring that’s for sure. Our HIGH today was 32. Add the 50mph wind in there and I don’t even want to know what the temp was.
Mom has promised me (and you) that she will spend a little more time taking UPDATED photos of me instead of recycling the oldies. Why? Well mostly because I have slimmed down so much and am not the chubby little ball of ginger that you’re used to seeing. I lost some weight and Mom gave me a break from camera posing while I was feeling a bit poorly and having difficulty adjusting to my medicine BUT that’s been ages now and my weight hasn’t changed so I’m ready to model. HAHAHAHA
Thanks to everyone who said such nice things about my Mom’s oil paintings yesterday on my blog……..it made her feel all “warm and fuzzy”……….like a nice warm sweater!
Happy Friday/Monster Day
Hugs, Sammy

I don’t understand why our humans don’t enjoy having our furs decorating the place…….after all, it’s OUR home too right??????

Mum got the evil vacuum out yesterday. She said it was because dad wasn’t home and she could get on better, but I think it was to catch me unaware.
