If We Only Had Thumbs

Published on by Service Cats U.S.45 Comments

Well we shared an oldie but always funny goody wiff you all yesfurday and weez so glad yous all had a gweat laff. We all need to laff ever once in a while and mommy’s a good sport and can laff at hers selff. At least most of da time. MOL  Altho’ we wealized after postin’ we furgot to tell you all dat this story wuz fwum 2011. Lexi had shared it on hers facebook page afur we had da blog, but it is so funny dat we just had to share it wiff you all here. (See sis Lexi stawted out hers page and told stories year by year fwum da time she wuz born.) So altho’ there wuldn’t hav been fotos even ifin it wuz yesfurday cuz alas, we hav no fumms, we didn’t even hav a digital camewa in 2011. And da 35 mm we had didn’t hav film, and again, Lexi and me hav no fumms. Me will tell ya’ dat mommy never wanted to be in da spotlight here, but it weally works out well fur her cuz she be da only one dat can work da flashy box. So there’s no danger of hers face bein’ splattered all over meez blog. Least not till they develop a camewa fur us cats. And when dat happens me finks there will be a line of awnties wantin’ to buy us one so they can see all da stupid stuffs mommy duz.

So anyways, Sunday wuz such a purretty day here. Da sun wuz shinin’, it wuz in da 80’s and mommy wuz sittin’ wound in hers shorts wiff da a/c goin’. And then we went to bed and got up Monday fureezin ow little tooshies off. Okay, so maybe nopawdy in this house has little tooshies and maybe they wusn’t fureezin’ off, but it wuz sum kinda cold here. We woke up to 21 degwees. Me will just tell yous it’s not posed to be dat cold here yet. And it’s not just here. Me catness, sum of you alweady hav snow. We just can’t magine alweady gettin’ da snow. Me just hates da snow. And yep me has been out in it afur. It wuz quite by accident, but me wuz IN DA SNOW!!!  Me will tell ya’ ‘bout dat sumtime. You will get a gweat laff over dat one too. Mommy might be able to laff at hers selff, but meez not so sure me can laff at meez selff as well. But ifin me dusn’t agwee to tell you ‘bout it sis Lexi will just hijack meez blog and she’ll tell ya’ all ‘bout it.

It turns out a foo of ow furiends did go out shoppin’ on Black Furiday and swear they got sum good deals. A foo of ya’ went out to da gwocery stores and had no purrawlem. Yous know da gwocers haven’t learned yet to take advantage of Black Furiday. Can you magine a Black Furiday sale at da gwocery?  Like milk be $4.95 here wegular, and we told ya’ now dat da sales awen’t weally sales anymore, so da gwocer puts out an ad dat reads; Milk 2 gals. fur $10.00. Do you know dat da store wuld be packed and peeps linin’ up wound da block to get it?.  And da store be makin’ .10 cents more than they normally do. MOL  This Black Furiday fing is way outta contwol.  Mommy had intended to take Cyber Monday off and just “unplug”, but she decided she didn’t wanna get dat faw behind. So we logged on and visited as much as we kuld. Ow innewnet wuz runnin’ purretty slow wound here. Dat means a lot of peeps wound us wuz shop, shop, shoppin’ away.

Me will tell you a little secwet. Mommy did sum lookin’ hers selff. Member back duwin’ da fundwaiser when mommy got a gift cawd and wuz told to buy sumfin’ fwivolous? Okay, so mommy looked up da definition of fwivolous (hers hasn’t dun anyfin’ like it in so long she didn’t member what it wuz), and then did a little lookin’ wound hers selff. But alas, she didn’t take da leap. She sed da sales will weally be sales after Christmas, and then she can get da bestest deal fur hers munny. Me did tell you dat meez mommy can stwetch a dollaw so faw yous kuld see fwu it wight? Well, dat’s how. She never sez, “Oh, I would really like to have that,” and then buys it. Stead she sez, “wow, I would really like to have that, but what do the girls need?” Or, “What do we need for blogging and Facebook?” Mommy wrote down camewa battewies, and memowy cawds, and nip papers, and udder fings like dat. Altho’ she will do as instwucted, cuz dat’s da udder fing ‘bout meez mommy, ifin she’s given munny and told what to spend it on dat’s zackly what she duz. So, look fur a fwivolously bought sumfin’ posty after Christmas. Smile And Lexi and me awe so happy ‘bout dat. Mommy dusn’t do it enuff. Her luvs us sumtimes too much. When mommy sez weez be hers world, she weally means it. And of course we be glad ‘bout dat and mommy be ow world too, but sumtimes mommies need a little mommy only time. And ow mommy dusn’t weally do dat.

I'z warmin' deez old bonez bi da fire.
I’z warmin’ deez old bonez bi da fire.

Anyways, awe you all weady fur Christmas? It’s gunna be here in 22 days. Weez gunna be writin’ ow letter to dat Santa purrsun soon. There awe so many in need this year, we sure hope hims can help out. Fur all of ya’ in da cold, stay warm and safe. Well meez gunna wrap it up fur now and go and check on da sis Lexi and da firplace. Maybe she’s warmed up enuff to play a bit.

Till da nex time…………Be Blest!!!

Shoulda Been A Warning Label

Published on by Service Cats U.S.60 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy.  Me told you da udder day we wuld share a story ‘bout mommy and da leaf blower, and so we ‘cided mommy’s first ever leaf blowin’ episode wuz purrawlly da bestest one to share wiff yous today.  Now me will warn you tho’ Don’t take too big a sip of dat coffee or tea or coke, cuz yous just might end up blowin’ it all out yous nose on da puter scween.  Yep, it’ dat funny.  Me showed you all those leaves da udder day but not where they came fwum.  See Weez hav these big ole oak twees out in fwunt of ow pawtment.  There be 3 of ’em, and they stawt losin’ their leaves weally bad wight after halloween.  And then they stawt pilin’ up on ow fwunt porch and walkway.  Da wind can’t get under them and move them along cuz of da way owr house sits wiff it’s store room.  And mommy can’t get out and sweep them all off anymore.  So she got this idea to buy a leaf blower.

0dw DeziSurreal Chess

Everywhere she looked they cost a lot of munny.  She finaly found one dat she kuld afford, and so she orderd it.  Well it finally arrived and mommy wuz so excited.  Now just so you know, da leaf blower is one of da fings dat me just hates bout da lawn crew.  But they be gone fur da year, so me has all calmed down now.  Anyway, mommy opened da box and took out hers new leaf blower, and stawted laffin. It wusn’t much bigger than a hair dwyer.  But mommy wuz still excited and wanted tu know how well it wuld weally work.  So she went outside tu giv it a twy.  Let me tell you, It wuz a site.

 

Mommy had to get a heavy duty extenshun cord cuz da plug on it isn’t very long.  She finaly got it plugged in, and she’s standin out on da porch lookin’ at it.  She turned it over and wound and back upwight again cuz she kuldn’t figger out how to turn it on.  Sis Lexi and me wuz in our window perch and we wuz boff watchin’ her wiff anticipation.  MOL Mommy turned and looked in da window at us and sed, “I got it girls, get ready for the noise…..hopefully.”  Now let me splain, me hates da lawn crew visits and all their noise.  Mommy can make all da noise on da fwunt porch her wants to and me dusn’t care. Me can even sleep fwu it. Oh yeah, me almost furgot to tell you. Mommy has never dun any kind of actual lawn work.  She just stawted learnin’ to garden a foo years ago, and da only lawn mowers mommy has ever seen is da tractor kind. (anudder story altho’ it’s bout mommy growin up and not us).  So to say mommy dusn’t know how to use da leaf blower her just bought is puttin it mildly.

0dw Lexi hi globe

Here we go.  Mommy’s got da leaf blower pointed toward da store room door.  Da window where Lexi and me awe layin is wight by da store room so we hav a purrfect view of mommy and what’s goin’ on.  Mommy pushes da ‘on’ button, and…… da leaf blower jumps.  Up then down and mommy be scweamin’ and leaves and dirt are flyin everywhere and Lexi and me………well, we boff jumped wight off ow perch so fast yous head wulda spun.

Mommy finally got da ‘on’ button turned off, and now she be laffin uncontwolably.  Me be standin’ at da fwunt door wiff me paws on it lookin’ out at mommy, and  Lexi be standin’ behind me lookin’ up fwu da door at mommy.  And what we saw wuz a site to behold.  There wuz mommy laffin’ loud and hawd.  We fawt she might hav been cwyin’ too, but ifin so they wuz brown tears runnin down hers face.  Hers hair wuz all over da place.  Weez never seen it look dat way, not even in da meownins.  Mommy had leaves and dirt all over her.  She didn’t even look like ow mommy.  She  looked at us standin at da door and sed, “Oh my catness girls, this is much more powerful then I thought it would be especially since it’s so small.  Sorry I scared you girls, I will get better. I promise.”  Mommy turned wound and turned da blower back on and well….needless to say she made a bigger mess than we had to begin wiff. 

She finally had to come back in da house cuz it got dawk.  But da purrsun dat came in wusn’t da same one dat went out dat’s fur sure.  She smelled funny and looked funny.  Specially wiff all those leaves in her hair.  Leaves and dirt wuz stuck to mommys legs and awms and face. She sed, “I know it’s dinnertime girls but I’ve got to take a shower first.  And I guess I’m gunna have to work on the leaves tomorrow.”  Again, we fawt. Mommy’s gunna du this all over again tomowwo?  Well she did, and didn’t do much better then eever. But after a foo more times, she did get a little better.  Mommy’s just learned dat she needs to stawt early nuff to do ow porch and walk and da neighbors.  Cuz dat’s where she ends up blowin’ most of ow leaves.  MOL

Oh and sumpawdy sed sumfin’ ‘bout livin’ in pawtments and maint. men duin’ da leaves and such.  And yous so wight.  Least dat’s what mommy fawt too. And it’s always been dat way everywhere els she lived.  But not here.  Da idiots they hire here don’t do nuffin’, specially ifin they don’t hav too.  Fur years da lawn crew didn’t do anyfin’ wiff da leaves.  They sed it wusn’t in their contwact.  Once da contwact wuz up, management put leaf cleanin’ in da new one.  But they be gone fur da year, and so now it’s up to each wesident to take care of their own porch and walkway or get written up.  Anyways, hope you enjoyed mommys adventure wiff da leaf blower.  Me told you it wuz funny.  We still fink dat little blower shulda came wiff a warnin’ label.  MOL

Till da nex time…………Be Blest!!!
