Meez not goin' too faw away fwum mommys lap.
Meez not goin’ too faw away fwum mommys lap.

Fur munffs now yous know mommy hasn’t been able tu see so well.  And since da flood ow house is kinda a mess. Fings be sittin’ in plaes they don’t belong and da cawpet be pullin’ up and is a weal twip/cwash hazard.  So this meownin’ like evew meownin’ as we stawted down da hall tu da kitchen mommy sed, “Careful girls mommy can’t………OMC  girls!!! Mommy can see!!!”   See (pun intended) evew meownin’ now fur a kupple weeks we been runnin’ oovew fings and intu fings cuz mommy kuldn’t see tu move them or tell us tu turn tu miss them.  But this meownin’ we didn’t hit or run ovew ANYFING!  Mommy wealized dis meownin’ hers kuld see and it wuz wunnewful.  Yesfurday after da llaserin’ hers eye wuz dilated so even tho’ it had been fixed she still kuldn’t see till that wore off which wuz sumtime duwin’ da night. There be A Rose.        

Now fur da 2nd Rose in Roses.  Da management company hired a new distwict supervisor and she wuz here tuday tu renew ow lease!!!  Altho’ it didn’t go off wiff out a hitch, da new lease did get signed.  And after all, what’s a rose wiff out a foo thorns, wight?.  And since da lease is signed and that stwess iis gone now and mommy can see again, we can spend all day tumowwo gettin’ all caught up on yous blog postys.  🙂  We be sum happy kittys now fur suwe.  We hav sum weally cool fings comin’ down da pipe fur da blog in da weally near future, so stay tuned.         And weez not member hoo it wuz, but sumpawdy had wanted to a close up of ow Nip bwitches toy that Marty sent us, so here it is.

Meez playin' wiff mr. Nip bwitches.

This be mr. Nip bwitches. Da toy Marty sent us wiff da nip sheet stuck in hims bwitches.
This be mr. Nip bwitches. Da toy Marty sent us wiff da nip sheet stuck in hims bwitches.

 

Now fur da sour gwapes.  This new supervisor came down to look at da cawpet and sed she fawt it kuld be saved.  Yeah, mommy wuz not a happy mommy and let her know what da actual purrfessional cawppet people sed.  (she’s only been in pawtment management fur a kupple years and admitted she knew nuffin’ ’bout cawpet)  Then hers asked fiin mommy kuld be happy wiff just da livin’ room cawpet bein’ replaced.  Yep, yous guessed it.  Mommy wuz seein’ red.  Mommy told her dat da company had or wuz posed to hav insuwance to cover da cost of these fings and da bedroom flooded da same as da livin’ room.  And dat sour smell she wuz smellin….dat wuz ow house.  This only stawted after da flood ovew da last kupple of days.  Mommy also mentioned that they needed to make adjustments to da pawment conditions cuz da tiled floors wuz no doubt going too mold as water had seeped under them where the seams were, and it wuz rusted where mommys file cabinet, fweezer, washer and dryer, da stove and fridge had sat in da standin’ water fur days.  Then she suddenly stawted talkin’ ’bout seein’ ifin she get all da floors replaced.  She sed that they wuld put down planks in da hallway and cawpet in da livin room and bedroom.  These planks she’s talkin’ ’bout be cheap an wuld look llike wood floors.  But they WULDN’T actually be wood floors.  She sed it kuld be a while afur she knew anyfing cuz she wuld hav too get a bid and contact da “big boss” at Belmont to see ifin she kuld replace da floors.  And in da meantime….still no cawpet monster.  Yuck!!!  Mommy and us awe so tiwed of da filffy floors.  Stepin’ in wheat that’s been twacked fwum da pawdee boxes and evewfin’ els.   😦  

So, Roses and Sour Gwapes.  MOL  But at least we be gettin’ sumwhere and makin’ a dent in all these fings that be causin’ mommy so much stwess.  That means ow massages will finally help mommys migwaines again.  At least till nex munff when mommy has tu figger out where tu get da extwa $30.00 fur ow rent cuz it went up.  Anyways dat’s it fur now, we will be visitin wiff yous all later tuday.  Meez so excited tu catch up wiff you all.  🙂              

Til da nex time…………………..Be Blest!!!

Anyways, me told yous weez had mowe good news and fings tu share wiff yous.  Weez wuz asked tu write ’bout  a normal day in our lives fur an online magazine/newsletter called The Daily Mews.  Da awticle itself is called A Day in the Life of Service Cats Alexandra and Deztinee.  Da story wuz told fwu ow eyes and narrated by sis Lexi in hooman speak.  So ifin yous hav twubble wiff da kitty speak but wunnewed ’bout what weez did fur mommy then this is yous chance tu wead a bit of ow story.  🙂  Dis is just da first of more articles tu come by us.  Weez suwe du hope yous enjoy weadin’ ow story, and don’t furget tu subscwibe while yous there.  The Daily Mews is full of infurmative, funny and heart warming storys.  🙂

BEAUTIFUL SUNDAYLexi,Dezi

 And da last bit of good news fur tuday……Weez just ’bout tu get all caught up!!!  WooHoo!!!     Now afur yous go and ask, altho’ meez had sed no bad news in ow nex posty; meez knows yus all wanna know ‘but da lease and cawpet.  So weez will make this quick and just say dat da manager claimed tu not hav mommys paperwork fwum da home office so hers didn’t get tu sign da lease.  Even tho’ da management companies 10 days tu mke a decision (as if they kuld decide anyfin’ udder than tu wenew ow lease) wuz up and they had sent no wesponse, weez didn’t get da lease signed.  But is not cuz weez wuzn’t weady or willin’.  So they awe da ones in bweach.  And mommy had da manager write a note stating why we kuldn’t sign it.  As fur da cawppet, they wanted mommy tu move all hers furniture so they kuld “du it wight.”  Weez not suwe what they mean by dat, and NO mommy’s not movin’ hers furniture. Specially since weez did nuffin’ tu cause this flood.   So weez still kinda in a holdin’ pattewn.  And da lawyer til mommy tu take a witness and pay hers went on Munday (or at least twy).    

Till da nex time…………………Be Blest!!!

Have A Wonderful ThursdayDezi - 2HEoW-176 - normal

Now ontu doctor news.  Mommy and me be off tu hers pointment wiff da eye surgeon tuday tu see ifin hers retina is still attached.  Mommy’s no doctor, but da “black dot” is gone so mommy’s suwe all is well and hers can schedule da surgery on hers right eye fur da first Munday in August.  Hopefully this one will go better and hers will be able tu see again.  Hers did learn that when yous laser a hole in da membwane sumtimes these fings called floaters appear and cause  yous tu see little spots.  These “floaters du go away after a foo weeks.  Mommy also has a ‘pointment wiff  da specialist.  Don’t know what hims gunna say, but da paperwork fwum da hospital sed tu follow up wiff hims.  So that’s exactly what mommy plans tu du.   Fankfully most of da pain and yucky symptoms dat had hers down hav gone away.  Yay!!!          

gif Thursday Love Lexi - 2HEoW-177 - normal

Meez knows yous all wunnewin’ what happened wiff da cawpet.  MOL  When wees last posted, da cawpet installers wuz gunna be at ow house yesfurday tu “patch” da paddin’. And mommy wus posed tu hav moved da furniture. Well hers didn’t move any furmiture, fank catness.  An unmarked van showed up wound 10:45 and 2 men got out and went nex door.  Weez heard all kinds of noises ovew there and wunnewed when they might show up at ow door.  Yous know yous shuldn’t wunnew such fings. MOL  ‘Bout an hour later sumpawdy pulled on da door twyin’ tu just walk in.  Hmmph, Mommy keeps da door locked so dat nopawdy can just walk in on us, so finally da doorbell rang.  Mommy went tu da door and a young man came in and sed, “What are we suppose to be duin’ here?”  So mommy stawted tellin’ hims dat da pawtment flooded, and afur hers kuld finish hims asked ifin da pad wus still under da cawpet.  Mommy told hims it wus, and he sed that paddin’ dusn’t dwy.  And that it shulda been pulled out afur da cawpet wus dwied.  And then hims stawted touchin’ da cawpet and mumblin’.  Then hims pulled on da edge of da cawpet and a whole handful unraveled on hims.  Hims told mommy da cawpet needed tu be weplaced.  Mommy told hims these were fings hims needed tu be tellin’ da manager and hers got da fone and dialed da office.  

While mommy wus relayin’ what hims had told hers he went out and got da uddew man and they boff went tu da back and stawted touchin’ da cawpet and pullin’ at it and havin’ it unravel in their hands.  Da manager told mommy hers kuldn’t answer any of hers concerns but she wuld call hers (temporary) supervisor and get back to hers.  In da meantime, da cawpet men had gone out tu their van and got on da fone.  A bit later they returned tu work on da pawtment nex door. Wight afur 3:00 da manger called mommy and sed hers hadn’t heard anyfin’ yet but shuld tumowwo and she wuld let mommy know what they were gunna du ’bout this situation and that da cawpet men had been told a kupple hours earlier by their boss not tu du anyfin’ tu ow pawtment tuday. So now weez in limbo waitin’ tu see ifin they awe gunna du da wight fing or not.    

And tuday is da deadline fur management tu hand down da decision ’bout whether or not they awe gunna wenew ow lease or not.  Ow lawyer told mommy that ifin hers not get any news or call fwum da manager this meownin’, tu take a witness tu da office and wequest tu sign ow lease.  Since they hav no legal wight tu not wenew it, then it shuld go smoothly.  (paws cwossed)  Well dat’s all da news and updates wees hav fur now.  

Ow nex posty will be less news and updates and mowe fun!!! 🙂 Member that online magazine wees wrote an article fur?  Well there will be mowe ’bout that in ow nex post.

So till da nex time…………………Be Blest!!!
