Couch Wars

Nekoka sees something odd poking out from underneath the sheet covering my couch.

You Want To Watch TV?

I don’t think so!

Backyard in Bloom

My lilac tree is bursting with blooms this year!  The scent when I walk out the back door is almost overwhelming.  I am not the only one to enjoy these lovely flowers, though, as you can see.

Sophie Has Arrived

I love reading Bernadette Kazmarski’s The Creative Cat’s blog.  Especially her stories of how she met some of the cats in her life, and the wonderful photos and paintings that highlight them.  A little while ago she had this lovely entry about her cat Sophie which included a gorgeous shot of her peeking out from behind some pale white lace curtains overlooking a spray of blue flowers.  I am not sure why but the photo spoke to me and I had to have it.

Of course, once it arrived, it had to be given the seal of approval by Sassafrass before I could bring it upstairs and hang it in the spot which I had earmarked for it the moment I saw it.  Sass may, however, have just been approving the lingering scent of Bernadette’s pack of felines.

It Was Not Just a Nekoka Nose

That made all those marks on my patio window!

But hiding his head under the bed sure makes him appear the guilty party.

Sassafrass surely did not contribute to that mess.  Nekoka barely lets her near the cat grass.  At least not when I have the camera at hand.

Chomp!

On Guard

No one gets between Nekoka and his cat grass.

Me and My Bird Boys

Sunday was so warm and sunny!  My boys and I enjoyed hanging out in my bedroom feeling it through the patio door.  Once again I’m wondering how much it might cost to get the patio converted into a little screened in area that my birds and cats could enjoy on days like this.   That’s yet another item on my to-do-one-day home improvement list.  I’m turning fifty-one this month.  Maybe for my present to myself this year I might get one of those items crossed off the list.  Like paint the living room.  Paint the computer room.  Get the bathtub done like the shower last year.  Pull up the hideous carpet and put down flooring that I can actually sweep and mop.  Get a new mattress (mine is what, some twenty years old now?).

Or maybe I’ll just break down and get that new computer I’m wanting.  Something with a nice 64 bit operating system so I can actually use more then 3.whatever gig of RAM.  Cause, you know, Guild Wars 2 is coming out and SWTOR is just begging for more memory.
