Mom snapped this of me this morning….right after I’d finished my breakfast. Every morning after I finish slurping down my meal (ocean fish and tuna this morning) I retire to one end of the couch in the family room and have my first nap of the day. This is a BIG nap for me – because I’ve been patrolling the house all night and it’s time to let my parents take over now that they’re up.
Mom says I purr myself to sleep. I guess that might be right – I do purr a lot….sometimes quite loudly. But hey – my tummy’s full, I’m nice and warm and safe, and I can RELAX – so I purr my “happy” purr!
It’s cold outside…..Dad’s going to go flying later when it warms up a tiny bit (it’s in the low 30s right now) and Mom has some errands so that means I’ll be home by myself at some point. HOME ALONE means back on alert/patrol duty.
Yesterday my parents went to the store to try and get a new train for under our tree. Guess what. They didn’t have one. They’d sold out of the one they wanted to get. It sounded pretty cool though. Polar Express train with a whistle and everything! They said they expect another shipment in – but it sounds like our tree will be going up this weekend without having a train set under it. But it WILL have presents under it! I counted nine wrapped presents – some Mom has in her studio for Dad and some Dad has in his office for Mom. Nothing for me yet though – – – Mom has to hide THAT stuff really well though because I know all the hidey spots! Tee Hee!
Well, pardon me while I continue with my napping activity. A guy’s gotta do what a guy’s gotta do!!!
