Oh Christmas Tree Where Are You?

WooHoo It’s Furiday again. Da weekend’s here and it’s 1 day closer to Christmas.  Well mommy has looked all over da house and no Christmas twee.  There’s one place left to look but mommy sez ifin it’s there, it’ll be there next year duwin’ spwing cleanin’.  As you all know ow pawtment flooded this summer and everyfin’ wuz moved out and back in.  It wuz like mommy wuz movin’ in fur da first time, only it wuz da second time.  And as many of you know da manager here dusn’t like mommy and is always lookin’ fur a weason to write mommy up.  So shortly after we weturned home and stawted gettin’ fings put away da manager decided to have pawtment inspections.  So mommy kind of put all da stuffs dat weez not use wegular like in da closet and closed da door.  Mommy sez this is da bestest kep secwet of women worldwide.  Needless to say she never got back to all dat stuff.  Da wedder turned cold and mommy stawted gettin’ wound a bit slower, and we don’t actually use dat stuff but a foo times a year.  So mommy decided it wuld keep til da wedder warmed up.  But alas, it’s Christmas, and we need a foo of da fings in dat black hole called da walk in closet.   

Guess meez ornament will hav to hang here on da blog. MOL
Guess meez ornament will hav to hang here on da blog. MOL

Mommy sez she’s sure they didn’t steal it cuz it wuz a very small twee and didn’t even work anymore.  Da lights dat is. Awnty Theresa sent us lights last year to put on it, and mommy wuz smawt enuff to keep those out so we at least hav Christmas lights.  Dat be one of ow favowit fings ‘bout Christmas.  Every year she takes Lexi and me wound in da caw so we can look at all da lights on all da houses.  We hav noticed dat in da last foo years not as many peeps be decowatin’ anymore and those dat do don’t put up as much.  How ‘bout yous all?  Do y’all decowate wiff lots of lights and ornaments?  We know fur sure lots of you awe on da ball and way ahead of us.  We awe gettin’ sum pawsum Christmas cawds.  Mommy sed she wuz gunna put up a line and hang them all fur a cool foto.

Mommy and me awe goin to da doctor today so we will be sendin’ out ow cawds this weekend.  Cuz when we go to see mommy’s doctor we always make a day of it.  We hav to go to da fawmacy and we stop in at da bank and visit wiff meez furiends and get me a foo more tweats.  And mommy sed we wuld stop by da dollaw store and see ifin they hav a weally cheap twee she kuld afford to weplace ow lost one.  Me sure hopes they’ve accidentally cut open a bag of tweats so me can get a foo there too.  It’s amazin’ weally, they always seem to hav a bag of tweats dat they hav cut open and can’t sell.  Meez favowit place to go is mom’s minit mawt.  See they sell speed food fur hoomans and they always giv me a sausage patty or a corn dog.  fur sum weason mommy dusn’t like me to hav those very offen tho’, so we don’t go by there much.  Me finks mommy goes wiffout me sumtimes.  Anyways, it’s Furiday and weez weady fur da weekend awe you?  We sure hope you all hav a pawsum time and better get all dat last minute shoppin’ dun cuz Christmas is gunna be here afur you know it. 

Mommy sez weez be da 2 sides of hers heart.

And now it be dat time of year where we shuld be writin’ him again. So, sis Lexi and me sat down last night and wrote us a letter to submit to Mr. Santa Paws. And mommy sez hims can get it fwum here as well, so weez fawt we wuld post it today.

Dear Mr. Santa Paws, 

Deztinee here fur sis Lexi and me this year. First off we sure wuld like to fank you fur delivewin’ all those pawsum gifts to us last year. Dat wuz so amazin’. We had never seen anyfin’ like dat afur. We sure awe blest to hav so many wunnewful furiends dat luv us so much. And altho’ not furever homes we sure do purreciate you findin’ foster homes fur those foo shelters dat emptied out fur da holidays and closed cuz there wuz no kitty there. We awe so glad those kitties got to be in a home and know luv. Even ifin fur only a short time.  And we sure do purreciate you visitin’ all ow furiends. They didn’t get everyfin’ on their lists but they sure nuff got a lot and were very happy.  So I guess now me shuld move on to this year. 

 0dw Lexi mommys lap

Well mommy sez dat sis Lexi and me hav been purrfect angels this past year. Me had a little issue fur a while wiff da pawdee box but mommy sez dat wusn’t meez fault and you shuldn’t count dat against me. And now dat we got a gigantor pawdee box all’s well. We kuld use anudder, but da one we hav is mighty fine. And we got so blest this year when ow house flooded and ruined mommy’s chair and ow mattwess. All ow furiends came togedder and gave gween papers fur us to buy new. And we even got sum extwa stuffs, like dat gigantor pawdee box. Sis Lexi got sum pawsum steps dat hav been such a gweat big help fur her. And well, me luvs ‘em too. We won a foo contests this year and we hav sum gweat new toys and a fountain to help us dwink more water. And mommy even won an iPad Air da udder day in a drawin’. We awe indeed sum very blest kitty girls.

So now to ow wish list. Sure hope you can manage it, we know we hav sum purretty big requests, but mommy sez it’s okay, it never hurts to ask. Firstly, weez lost a lot of sweet kitty and anipal furiends this past year to illnesses and accidents and such. Their hoomans sure miss ‘em sumfin’ pawful and wuld sure like a little sign dat they be okay and maybe even dat they be lookin’ out fur all of us. 

  And we hav so many more furiends this year than last cuz as you see weez joined da blogosphere too; and so many of ow furiends be sick and hurtin’. Now we know you not be God and can’t heal anypawdy, but maybe you kuld giv Him an ask. And maybe you kuld see ‘bout gettin’ their hoomans da gween papers to help make them better. And so many of ow furiends don’t hav very much so maybe you kuld slip a foo gween papers to their hoomans and a furesh new toy in their stockings just fur them. No matter what anypawdy sez, they’ve all been good this year. Weez weally wuld like all ow furiends to get everyfin’ they want and need.  

0shelter kitty bars

And now to da shelter and rescue kitties and anipals.  We know askin’ to find all of them luvvin’ furever homes is a big undertakin’, but weez still gunna ask. And ifin not a furever home then maybe foster homes. We just wish we lived in a world dat had no need of shelters or rescues. We just want them all to know da luv of a special hooman, da warmff of dat hoomans hand stwokin’ their furs and a luvvin’ soft voice callin’ their name. A soft bed to sleep in and a comfurtin’ lap to nap in. We wuld also like to ask dat yous bwing all those kitties and anipals their own new toy to take wiff them to their furever homes. And fur all those hoo can’t go to furever homes or foster homes fur Christmas, purrlease giv them a warm blanky to lie on and company so they not be alone. We awe so lucky to hav such a pawsum luvvin’ mommy and furever home, and we just want all da anipals to hav da same fing. And purrlease ask da shelters to quit killin’ da hellffy kitties and anipals and giv ‘em a chance to find their special hoomans. 

0ferals 0ferals1

  And now to da ferals, abandoned and furgotten by most. Kuld you purrlease look after them. Ifin you see any dat don’t hav a care taker kuld ya’ pick ‘em up and dwop ‘em wiff a good one. We know dat they don’t twust enuff to want to be petted , but we so want them to hav food in their bellies and a warm place to sleep and be safe and a sweet voice dat calls fur them so maybe sumday they can learn to twust enuff to weceive da hands on luv we hav. And kuld ya’ giv all those dat care fur da ferals a foo gween papers and sum of those pawsum heated sleepin’ quarters. Maybe sum blankys and of course sum noms. And kuld ya’ pass along ow fanks to them fur all da work they do? We sure wuld purreciate it.

Now on to us. Well ifin you look back over yous letter here you see dat we hav all we need. We hav a wunnewful luvvin’ mommy, a warm furever home and quite a bit of new stuffs. We awe down wight billionaires in luv and furiends and framly. Lexi and me boff hav full bellies and tweats too. We hav a warm, soft, dwy bed to sleep in and a comfurtin’ lap called mommy to nap on. We hav sum amazin’ toys and nip and even sum silvervine. (Which reminds me, ow furiend Nissy sure wuld like sum new nip.) Mommy sez wiff girls like us she kuldn’t magine wantin’ anyfin’ more. So me reckons we not need anyfin’ again this year Mr. Paws. Weez been so blest fwuout da year and mommy takes weally good care of us dat you can pass on by us this year. But ifin yous kuld pawssibly get to ow furiends and da homeless and ferals we sure wuld be gwateful. We sure don’t mean to sound gweedy, there’s just a lot of need out there, and we wuld very much like everypawdy, kitty and anipal to hav a Merry Christmas and everyday after. Fanks fur readin’ ow letter.

If We Only Had Thumbs

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.  

 0dw DezinLexi together

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.

 0dw Dezi in bedharness

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

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

 Friendship Dezi - 2HEoW-15U - normal

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!!!
