Well it’s time fur another Blest Sunday. And this ain’t just any blest Sunday either. Nope sure isn’t. It’s Resurrection Sunday, or as most call it, Easter. We like da resurrection Sunday cuz it reminds us what this day is all ‘bout. We don’t celebrate with eggs or bunnies and mommy doesn’t even get chocolates fur herself. Well normally dat is. She found a dollar bag of tootsie rolls at da store da other day and picked ‘em up fur her to eat while me enjoyed me’s purresent from uncle Garth, awnty Mary Beth, Gizmo and da gang.
We are so blest to have so many wunnerful furiends. With all dat be goin’ on in this world we give thanks to God each day fur keepin’ us safe. And we ask Him everyday to keep His hands on and bless our furiends and all their furmilies too. Me just doesn’t unnerstand why some peeps can be so mean and have so little respect fur life. Havin’ experienced furst hand da loss of a dear luvved one, me can tell you dat each moment is purrecious. Me doesn’t wish fur anypawdy to have to go thru what me and mommy are goin’ thru. Mommy sez dat death is a part of life and dat everypawdy will experience it at one time or another. Me just wishes dat these terrorists wasn’t in such a hurry to make their furiends and furmilies and all those furiends and furmilies of da innocents they take with them to go thru this. We’s sendin’ purrayers to all those affected by these senseless acts of violence.
Now, on to somethin’ more pleasant. Me told you dat awnty Mary Beth told mommy to get me somethin’ special from her and da furmily when she went to pick up da catputer. Mommy thought long and hard ‘bout what me needed. And she thought ‘bout how me keeps hangin’ out in da pawdee box room lookin’ fur sissy. Mommy wanted to get somethin’ dat would make me focus me’s attentions else where. So after lookin’ ‘round and purrice checkin’, she found what she thought would be da purrfect gift fur da situation at hand. Mommy decided to get me a pet of me’s very own. Dat’s right, she got me me’s very furst ever Betta fish. He’s a real cutey, but me isn’t quite sure what to make of him. Sis Lexi had several Betta fishes throughout her life and a couple froggies too. But mommy decided one Betta fish was enuff fur us right now. After all we are still lookin’ fur me a new sissy and helper. We sure hope da nice lady from Texas dat called us has some good news in dat depawtment. Me will tell ya’ all ‘bout dat in another posty.
Well, like me sed, fishies aren’t strangers to mommy, but you woulda thought so, cuz she set everythin’ up all backwards. She set up da aquarium and filled it with water and then added me’s fishy befur realizin’ she hadn’t put da rocks down or da plants. So there she was dippin’ out water and usin’ straws to try to place da plants. And using da straw to scoot me’s fishy outta da way so she could pour in some rocks. And Nope, she couldn’t just take da fishy out cuz she furgot to buy a net and he’s a quick little escape artist. Anyways, rocks, plants and fishy in place, mommy stepped back to check it all out. Me jumped up on da table fur a better look see. Oh me cats, he looks so cute. Me can’t wait to have a new sissy to share him with. Mommy sez me has to give him a name cuz we can’t just keep callin’ him “fishy”. So me thought it would be really cool to ask you all to help me name him.
He seems to really like me. Every time me goes over to visit with him he comes right over to where me’s at and flares his little gills. MOL And he really likes his plants. Altho’, he’s not so crazy ‘bout them bein’ planted in da rocks. Fur some reason every time mommy gets them anchored he goes and digs ‘em up again. MOL So mommy finally sed they can just float. After all, da aquarium is his house. He oughtta have da last word on how da decoratin’ goes, right? Fank you so much awnty Mary Beth, uncle Garth, Gizmo and furmily. Me luvs me’s new fishy and aquarium.
We’s just ‘bout got all da fotos loaded on da catputer, so we shoud be by your place fur a visit startin’ tomorrow. We’s purretty far behind right now, but we’ll get caught up soon. We’s missd ya’ll so much. Member to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur da blessings in your life. Me’s gonna enter me and me’s fishy in da Sunday Selfies hosted by da Kitties Blue. Ifin ya’ haven’t linked up, go by and check it out. Have a blest Resurrection/Easter Sunday.
This is fur all of ya like mommy dat didn’t know what a laptop fan table is.
Happy Valentine’s Day. Me is a blest kitty girl fur sure, and it’s me’s turn to tell mommy thank you. Mommy, me hasn’t been with you fur nearly as long as sis Lexi, and me’s sorry a kitty had to die so you kuld save me. But me is so glad you came to me’s rescue dat cold November day. Me’s furst kupple weeks of life had been horrible and me was knockin’ on heaven’s door when you saw me da furst time. Me kuld sense yous heart was still broken, but me knew you had tons of luv left to give. And ifin me was gunna die, me didn’t wanna do it in a cage or shelter. Me wanted to know da luv and comfurt dat came from yous touch and voice. It took all da strength me’s little body kuld muster to crawl up into yous lap. But once there me turned on me’s purr boat and looked into yous eyes and then fell asleep.
Me’s body was so tired and me kuldn’t member da last time me had eaten. Me shulda still been nursin’ but there was no cat mommy in sight. And then you picked up me’s tired little body and sed, “You’re my Destiny and Deztinee will be your name.” Me had no real idea what any of dat meant, but once you took me outside and put me in da carrier, me knew you wasn’t leavin’ me behind. We had a long drive ahead of us and me wasn’t sure me was gunna make it; but me did. When you took me’s limp flea ridden, worm infested, bloated body out of da carrier me let out a soft mew of thank you. Me kuld rest now. But dat’s when you went to work. You made me a bottle and made sure me ate me’s fill and then bathed all those lifes’ blood stealin’ fleas off me. And then you cradled me in your arms and told me everything was gunna be alright. Me slept peacefully fur da furst time in me’s short life while layin’ on yous lap. This was da life. And fur da furst time me thought me might just make it.
Well dat was 6 1/2 years ago now and me did make. Me didn’t just survive, me thrived. Me’s livin’ da good life and fallin’ deeper and deeper in luv with you and sis Lexi every day. Me hopes me’s 10 littermates found their furevers too. Me wuldn’t ever wanna magine a life without you mommy. You have given me so much luv sumtimes me thinks me’s heart will burst. So on this Valentine’s day and every day mommy, me wants you to know dat me luvs you more than anythin’ in da universe.
