Yep it SURE is…………….
Time to find a quiet spot and wait for an hour or two for things to calm down………
Or maybe go visit my psychiatrist and let him comfort me about my “monsta angst” ?
Guess what – I have two NEW posters for you that I found to tickle your funny bone about cleaning…..ready?
MOM- DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!
And this little winner which I think might look familiar to ALL of us…….
Yeah – well – it is one of our FAVORITE hiding spots right kitties? Actually it may just be where things wind up when we’re batting stuff around the living room and it accidentally goes under the couch or a chair or a dresser or a table or something!
I figure I can get through anything noisy today because tomorrow morning will be bacon and I can put up with this disruption to my napping schedule TODAY in order to eat bacon TOMORROW!
RIGHT?
RIGHT!
Alright Mom…let’s get it over with…..
And now, for the piece de resistance (which means of course WAIT TIL YA SEE THIS!)………..today at the Tabby Cat Club it’s “post an embarrassing picture of your human” day – wanna see the photo I stole borrowed from Mom’s dresser drawer???????? It’s HER in 1968. Make sure and visit the TCC for more pix to give you a giggle.

Oh Easy when my Mom was coloring her hair I thought NOTHING could possibly be that hideous smelling but indeed hair coloring used to be really ICKY……I think they are more “user-friendly” (and NOSE FRIENDLY) these days but my Mom quit coloring her hair a few years ago – finally. Your Mom would be pretty no matter WHAT color hair she has!!! (although purple might not be too good)

I read about your antics little one and I must say, you really are a POWERHOUSE of energy……maybe there is something that will help calm you down just a bit but still allow you to be the energetic little guy that you are. You worry your Ladymum so much when you run out the door – it’s not a good thing to make her worry. I once disappeared in the back yard when Mom and I were outside together and she cried and cried because she couldn’t catch me – I was too fast for her – so she just waited in the yard for me to get tired of being on my own – which I did – an hour later I came back and was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy to see her and I never did that ever again.
