Rest Up Thursday

Standard

What a busy day yesterday was – well for my parents anyway.   I was left behind and I bet you can guess what I was up to while they were gone?

Yep – a little bit of this and that and the other……………..in other words – SNORING.

While I was snoring, Mom and Dad were at a doctor’s appointment for Mom, then they went computer shopping for a laptop – my Mom now has a laptop (hallelujah) and she’s very happy about it but in “learning mode” which means it will be FOREVER before she can use the thing.  But we have one now so never again will we be WITHOUT computers so I won’t disappear for two or three days leaving you wondering if I’m alive!

We are patiently waiting for Spring and yesterday was a bit of a break in the colder Spring type weather because we got up to 74 – HOWEVER today rain moves in and back down we go.   It will be nice when we STAY Spring!  Know what I mean?

Can we get a break Mother Nature???????

Can we get a break Mother Nature???????

Whatever you do – enjoy your Thursday.  I’ll be snoopervising Mom’s learning of the laptop.   I guess we’ll need to have wine available for when she gets frustrated and who can be upset for long when they have an adorable ginger cat hugging their legs and saying MEOW every few minutes right?   Right!

    • Hi Fozziemum! My Mom got the all clear for another year from her oncologist yesterday AND today I should hear about my blood work. Meanwhile, Mom is getting familiar with her new best friend – the laptop. Windows 10 is MILES different from 8 but she’s a trooper – she won’t let it get her down and I’m here to keep her UP! HAHAHAHA

        • So funny when you say that “in my waters” thing – Mom and Dad watch Aussie mystery series “Mr. and Mrs. Murder” and she’s always talking about “her waters” !!! HAHAHA We’re getting adjusted to Windows 10 although Mom REALLY REALLY loves 8. Oh well…..gotta move with the times right?

  2. I’m so glad your momma is a free blogger now and can write your posts even while sitting in the bathtub :o) we wait for spring too… but that spring-thing is rare somehow, by now 50 shades of grey and super cold :o(

  3. Hi Sammy! Look at how adorable you are when snoring! Too adorable! Oh, maybe you don’t like being called adorable….maybe “exceedingly handsome” is what I meant! 😉

    I hope mom had a good appointment…and yay for the laptop! 😀

  5. Your Mom is going to LOVE that laptop! Windows 10 misbehaves frequently at first and then settles down. I read up in comments that your Mom’s appointment went well… HAPPY! Fingers still crossed for you! You have been having the same weather we have been having… 😀 Cold and blustery today! Yes, you are a cutie!

    • Hi Miss Pix! Mom loves the laptop already – not crazy about Windows 10 but she will conquer it (if she can handle my Dad she can handle Windows 10)……..HAHAHA……..Mom is in good shape (well – sorta – she’s still old as dirt) and I should hear today or tomorrow about my thyroid thing. Guess what – it’s 73 and sunny here in spite of what they SAID it would be – I bet tomorrow we get the stuff you have!!!!

  7. Yes, Sammy, you are danged cute. Laptop is no different than a big desktop…just portable. It’s all our mom uses now. We’d expect your snoozing again today after that lesson at CSU yesterday.

  10. An adorable cat and a glass of wine can get a person through anything. 🙂 A new laptop is so exciting! I’d be lost without mine…it’s so convenient to be able to work in different rooms as the mood strikes.
    We took a break from unpacking the other day and went shopping for the morning. I’m pretty sure the dogs and Sam were happy to see us go so they could also have a chance to catch up on their rest!

    • Hi Flynn – how is your Mom doing? I’m sure your nursing is helping her a whole lot. Mom was happy about her checkup and not so happy about mine – I guess it’s two pills a day for me now instead of one and a half (boo hoo). I’ll try to cooperate……..I really will. Mom and her laptop are getting to be good friends.

        My mum spoke to my vet the other day when I was losing weight so quickly and my pred has been increased by another half tablet. That is still only 2.5mg a day so still a very low dose, but it seems to be helping.

    • Hi Dear Nellie – I saw you chowing down on your blog this morning – funny how our eating habits change when we age…….your salmon was a big treat and if you will eat chicken, I’m just happy your Mom will make meals for you special. My Mom does that too……We have 66 degrees here this morning and it’s only 5AM!!!!! Should be a nice day for me to take a cruise through the yard.
