Friday already? Good grief………….I can’t believe it’s been a week since we filled in the blanks last but here we are! Our two co-hosts give us two sentences each on Fridays and we fill-in the blanks. Cool and fun way to learn more about each other. Wanna play? Click the badge and fill in the linky form at 15andMeowing!!
Guess what – this week yet again – Mom and I split up the fill-ins so if you see BLUE WORDS they are mine the GREENIES are Mom!
1. When this pandemic is over, I will continue to be vigilant about hand-washing but I sure won’t mind NOT having to wear a mask……!.
2. I have zero interest in canned (wet) cat food – Mom has tried everything but I’m just not a FAN – besides I actually LIKE my Hill’s Weight Control dry stuff!
3. I always look forward to Sunday night – Hubby and I listen to Old Time Radio on the NPR station – all those old radio shows are SO MUCH FUN to listen to!.
4. Having to go to bed at night is the bane of my existence. (Every night when Mom and Dad go to bed so do I – in the basement – until the next morning when Mom opens the door and it’s LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT! HAHAHA)
So there you have it for yet another week. You can never know EVERYTHING about ANYONE……….so the fill-ins on Friday mean we learn new stuff about each other every single week! Thanks to our co-hosts for thinking of this cute Hop. It’s fun.
I always used cleaning wipes for shopping carts (oh how many weird looks I’ve got BEFORE covid), think I will keep that habit , but I will be glad for the end of the masked ball.

The only GOOD thing about today here is that we won’t be in the upper 90s! They say upper 80s – that’s like a breath of fresh air (haha). Let’s hope people change their way of thinking where you are dear Clowie to realizing that masks and distancing along with hand-washing are the only weapons we have to fight this virus. Everyone needs to be on board!

We are in for some weather…and will have to turn off the cable and stuff…so I am here now…though wee need the rain so badly, we sure could do without storms…oh well…sigh…
I feel ya, Teddy, the peeps close the door to upstairs and us furry ones are not allowed to sleep up there, not even in our own nest, but at least we can stay on the main floor where we do have our nests.
Covid can leave us asap…though we know it will bother us for a long while yet…and those masks can go to museums as far as we are concerned. Petcretary has cleaned the whole shopping cart, from the day those wipes were there to use…we wish they had been around when our boys were sitting in them; they always got sick just after a trip to the store…not every time of course, but when they did you could count on the fact that they had been out with Mommy…

Having cruised a lot we have always been very careful about hand washing, so it comes as second nature.
Before lock down while we were still getting our shopping at the store, as soon as we heard there was a virus we took anti viral wipes to clean the trolley before we used it. We used to get strange looks but it kept us safe.
I don’t really want to go back to shopping and mixing with other people, so will probably stick to online delivered shopping.

Mom tried signing up at our local groceries to do curbside pickup (nobody delivers to home) but there were never available “delivery slots” to be able to go pick up her order so she gave up – she goes every Sunday when the store opens and nobody else is there yet (6AM) and is in/out in 15-20 minutes! She’s always cleaned the shopping basket handle even “pre-Covid” – the main thing is that everyone do EVERYTHING they are capable of doing to stay safe. It’s got to be “top of the mind” – and consistent. This virus is MEAN !! 😦

Aw, Teddy, that is the sweetest, most comfy pic of you ever! Look at that cushy bed. Aren’t you a lucky guy to find your furever home?! The fill-in answers are great, too! Our kitty, Sundae, has started going to ‘overnight kitty camp’ each night in our guest room. She’s not a happy camper about it, but I think each night is getting a little easier for her. But she does LOVE seeing me in the morning when I open that door!

I love my basement….it is cool down there – and Mom and Dad left a lot of the concrete floor open with no throw rugs so I have lots of COOOOOOOL on my tummy when I sleep there. It’s unfinished but they have old furniture and stuff down there so I have a favorite chair too. My cat trees and a great old potting bench in front of a window mean I can watch all the deer and raccoons and critters when they come out at night! It’s my favorite spot in the house!!!!!

Well I started out with “whole house” privileges when I first came here but Mom got tired of my meowing at her to GET UP GET UP every fifteen minutes all night long.

We sound up making the basement Ted’s “man cave” within about two weeks after we adopted him. He wouldn’t sleep on the bed with us – instead, he would come in the bedroom about every 15 minutes and meow for me to get up – we tried closing the door – he meowed at the door…….it was “self preservation” that got us to try putting him in the basement at night and he loves it. His cat trees are down there and other perches in the windows – he gets to watch the critters that live in our woods wandering around at night outside. We had hoped to have a bed-snuggle-cat but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO – instead we had a GETUPMOMMYGETUPMOMMYGETUPMOMMY boy!! 🙂

Thank you both for your fantastic fill-ins! I’m like you and though I always intend to practice good hygiene, I really can’t wait until the mask-wearing days are over. I wear one whenever I go into a public building, but wearing a mask in the heat of summer really isn’t the most comfortable thing? Teddy, you sound like Eddy. She loves her dry food, but she’ll pass on the canned food. Purrs!

It continues to amaze me that there are people who are INSISTING that it’s their “right” not to wear a mask even though it may be mandated wherever they live. It’s not comfortable but it’s the right thing to do. Anyway, we just got back from a quick trip to WalMart and I’d say it was about 75% mask-wearers. Teddy fortunately really likes his prescription dry from Hills.
