Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle.

          Raena, what are you meowin’ ‘bout now? 

 

 Dezi and Raena hang out together during the fireworks

 

I’s was just seein’ ifin anypawdy ‘membered us. Here we had the pawrty of the century planned, and then we went and fell off the face of the earth.

          Purrrrrrrlease Raena. We didn’t fall off the face of the earth. And, our furiends knew mommy was headin’ to the dentist and without her, we can’t work the catputer. 

 

 

 

Yeah sissy, what’s up with that anyways? Who knew ya’ needed a password just turn it on? And, why wouldn’t mommy use at least one of our names as said password? It’s like she wants to make sure we can’t have any fun without her. 

 

          Now Raena, you know we have lots of toys and fun without the catputer. Y, We’ve even had a little fun the last few days tryin’ to make out what mommy’s sayin’? 

 

 Raena lays on floor looking at toys

Okay, maybe we do have lots of fun toys.

 

 

Now that’s the truth sissy. She fur sure hasn’t sounded like our mommy.

 

          She’ll get better tho’, Raena. But we should let everypawdy know how things went. and we’ve got a few peeps to fank too.

 

 Raena looks at mommy from stroller

You’ll just have to enjoy seein’ this foto of me. Mommy didn’t

take da camera to her ‘pointment. But this is a great selfie, don’ch’a think?

 

 

Well, let me meow ‘bout the ‘pointment sissy. Mommy was a little nervous all meownin’ long, but she kept sayin’ that once it was all over, she’d feel much better. Hmmmpht  Anyways, when we got there, they called us right back. The assistant was the same girly that had taken mommy’s impurrsions, so at least she was furmiliar. The dentist on the other hand…yep, mommy had another new dentist, Dr. Ryan. He was an older man, 3rd generation dentist, and gentle as a teddy bear. He was really nice, even tho’ he did make mommy cry a few times. He kept stickin’ mommy with a needle and then he grabbed some funky lookin’ pliers and started pullin’ out her teethies. One at a time till they were gone. I’s could tell mommy was hurtin’ cuz her whole body was shakin’ and puddles of water were fallin’ from her eyes. But, mommy never said a word and Dr. Ryan said mommy was the bestest patient he’d had in years. Then, he got a needle and thread and sewed mommy’s mouth together.

 

          He didn’t sew her mouth together Raena. He just sewed all the holes he just made shut.

 

 Raena lays in mommy's lap

 

Whatever sissy. Anyways, the assistant girly then put these fake teethies in mommy’s mouth and told her stuffs ‘bout comin’ in fur soft alignments and one final hard alignment in 6 months. Like we had a clue what she was talkin’ ‘bout. And then, when we were leavin’, Dr. Ryan gave mommy a big ole teddy bear hug and said he’d be purrayin’ fur her. And yes, mommy started cryin’ all over again. We stopped at the Wally world to get mommy’s antibiotics and some Malt O Meal and headed home. Seems mommy had 4 more teethies in her sinuses and 3 of the lower ones were embedded in a nerve. So, mommy has a sinus headache on top of her regular migraine, and besides her face and neck bein’ all swollen, part of her face is a little numb still. Dr. Ryan, said it’d take a week or two fur her face and neck to shrink back to normal size and the feelin’ should return in a few days to a week. Seems nopawdy told mommy just how much pain and discomfurt she would have durin’ this healin’ purrocess. 

 

 Dezi gets loving while laying on the arm of chair-selfie

Me’s takin’ great care of mommy.

 

 

          Yeah, and since her migraines mess with her vision, we haven’t been on the catputer very much. And, the pain and feelin’ of the fake teethies have made it a little difficult fur mommy to eat even the Malt O Meal, so we’ve all been nappin’ a lot. But, most ‘purrtantly, mommy says, this is all tempurrary and shall pass. And, when it does, she’s gonna feel sooooooo much better. So, we wanna say a meowsy big fank you to all those who helped to make this pawssible. Fank you awnty Kathleen, awnty Carol, awnty Theresa, awnty Kat, awnty Suzanne and LouLou, the sweetest Tuxie Princess Erin and her peep, awnty Kerry and Valentine, awnty Vonda, awnty Anonymous, awnty Claire, Zorro and Pixie (The Swiss Cats), awnty Petal, awnty Debbie, Katie and Waffles (Glogirly), Our sweet furiends Amarula, Frodo and Zulu from Hairballs and Hissyfits, awnty Jullea, awnty Gretel, awnty Cindy, awnty Julie and all our Anonymous Angels. We wanna say fanks to uncle Pete, Timmy and the gang fur helpin’ to calm mommy’s nerves. Ya’ brought her back from the edge Fursday so she could make her ‘pointment. And, we wanna fank you all fur the purrayers and well wishes. Keep those purrayers comin’ ifin ya’ don’t mind.

Oh sissy, we are so very blest. Not only do we have the mostest wonderful mommy in the universe, we have the greatest furiends in any universe. Even mommy, who can’t talk so good right now, agrees, that we are most assuredly blest. And she wanted to ‘pawlogize to us and everypawdy fur our absence. Unfurtunately, she needs a couple more days to get sorted out, so our big pawrty is still on, just postponed a bit.

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

          Yep Raena, that’s the mommy we know and luv. We will always find the blessing, the rose bud among the thorns. And, we wanna remind all of you to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your life. 

 

We’re also gonna join up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. C’mon sissy, let’s go give mommy a massage and have a little nap.

 

Till the next time…………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Blest Sunday: Party Planning & Play Date Chit Chat

MeOW  Another week has passed and it’s time fur a purrfectly Blest Sunday. We are so behind in our visitin’ that it ain’t even funny. ‘Tween doctors’ pointments, lease re-certification stuffs and gettin’ ready fur mommy’s dental ‘pointment, there’s been little time fur the catputer. Mommy has purromissed us that all this extra stuffs is almost over and we’ll be back to normal real soon. 

 

 Dezi and Raena lay together on the floor

 

          I’s’ll sure be glad to get mommy back sissy. Even our play time has been shortened cuz of all the extra stuffs goin’ on right now. You know, we haven’t even gone strollin’ lately?. 

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

Well Raena, it’s been a little hot to go strollin’ just cuz. It’s furinally summer, and swelterin’ hot outside. We’re really blest to be inside unner the air conditioner.

 

 Raena sits pretty at the edge of the kitchen

Come on mommy, just a little stroll?

 

 

          You’re right ‘bout that sissy. Even with the air conditioner runnin’ and a couple of fans, mommy’s been complainin’ ‘bout the heat and somethin’ she calls her own purrsonal summers. What are those anyways?

 

Don’t ask me, Raena. What would me know ‘bout purrsonal summers. Mommy’s been complainin’ ‘bout those fur years. Even in the middle of the winter, mommy talks ‘bout those purrsonal summers. It’s purrobably just another human expression fur nonsense. You know humans and their sayings; they’ve got one fur just ‘bout everythin’.

 

 Sunshine with shades animated emoji

 

          They sure do, don’t they sissy?. Y, Just the other day you and me were meowin’ and playin’ in the back and mommy hollered somethin’ ‘bout us caterwaulin’. And then, you used your low meow that mommy doesn’t hear very offen and she came runnin’ to see what was goin’ on. 

 

 Dezi sits on the bathroom counter

 

Fur a second Raena, me thought she had done gone and brought home another kitty. There me was, sittin’ on the bathroom vanity when all of a sudden me caught sight of somethin’ outta the corner of me’s eye. Another kitty sittin’ there on the vanity right beside me. You were layin’ on the shower chair so me knew it wasn’t you. Me tried to ignore it, but it started to mimic everythin’ me did. Me got really close so me could give it a smell. It touched me’s nose, but there was nuffin’. No smell at all. So, me had to find out from mommy just what was goin’ on. One pain in me’s hiney sisfur is purrlenty. Me never agreed to 2!!!

 

          Pain in your hiney?! I’s thought you luvved me sissy. You said you did. 

 

Dezi lays on bathroom vanity

Me does Raena. But you can still be a pain sometimes. Fankfully, mommy said that extra kitty on the vanity was just all me’s beauty reflectin’ off of me. MeOW  That was a close one. Me sure is blest to have a mommy that keeps her word. 

 

 

 Raena lays on the shower chair

 

          I’s don’t know sissy. another kitty to play with might not be such a bad thing. Altho’ I’s do agree, we are very blest kitties to have such a luvvin’ mommy.

 

 Dezi and Raena play with the Tower of Tracks

 

Me plays with you Raena. Just cuz you don’t ever get tired, isn’t reason enuff to have to share everythin’ with yet another kitty. Besides, we’re blest with lots of furiends. We should schedule another play date sometime. Me has a feelin’ mommy’s not gonna be up to much this week since she has her dental ‘pointment to remove the remainin’ bad teethies and get those dentures she’s been talkin’ ‘bout. So, why don’t we have a few furiends over fur a play date pawrty. 

 

          Really sissy? I’s would luvs that. Are you gonna chaperone? You know mommy won’t be able too, and there’s no way she’ll let us have company ifin you’re not in charge.

 

 Dezi and Raena on the Liberty Cat Tree

 

Yes Raena, me will chaperone. We fur sure oughtta invite our sweet tuxie furiend, Erin the cat princess. We may not have any real mouseys ‘round here fur her but we can get purrlenty of cream. And yes, we can invite Simon, Timmy and his furmily, and… 

 

          Hey sissy!!! Valentine just got a new stroller. I’s bet he’d be up fur a play date party too. Maybe he could even stroll on over. We don’t know when Marv is scheduled to arrive at awnty Barb’s place, but maybe angel Nellie could fly in. Kittens  There’s just too many furiends to name all of ‘em. You’re are so right sissy. We are so blest to have so many pawsum furiends. A meowsy big fanky fanks to all of you.

 

 Top 30 Independant Cat Bloggers badge

 

Yep Raena, we are blest. Everywhere we look is a blessing. We were contacted by Dan and his amazin’ kitty Whiskey. They were puttin’ together a list of the top independent cat bloggers and wanted to include us. You can check out their list here. We feel blest to be included. There’s some really great blogs listed. We’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the many blessings in your lives. 

 

 Raena scowls at the camera while laying on the floor

This is mine’s collar bell selfie fur the week.

 

 

          Don’t furget Sunday Selfies with the Kitties Blue, sissy. We may not take actual selfies, but mommy does luv those close-ups. We better start cleanin’ up and maybe get mommy to plant up some cat grass fur our play date pawrty. I’s invitin’ all of you. It’s gonna be a celebration of furiends in honor of mommy gettin’ rid of all those painful teethies and all the blessings the good Lord gave us.

Blest Sunday: Blest In the Darkest Hour

Meow and welcome to a brand new Blest Sunday. The sun is shinin’, at least fur now. The birds are singin’ and the butterflies are all aflitter.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

           What in the world are you meowin’ ‘bout, sissy? I’s don’t see any butterflies flitterin’, and I’s don’t hear any birds singin’ either. What is flitterin’ anyways?

 

 Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

Okay, so maybe it’s not a Snow White moment Raena, but it is Blest Sunday. And that’s somethin’ to meow ‘bout.

 

 Raena lays on nip mat on Liberty cat tree

 

 

          I’s agree sissy. Just don’t be lyin’ to our furiends. Mommy says we’re not s’posed to lie.

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

Me wasn’t lyin’ Raena. Me was settin’ the stage. Or maybe it was wishful thinkin’ or somethin’. But, mommy’s right. Lyin’ isn’t right, even ifin it’s just stretchin’ the truth. So, fur the moment, the sun is shinin’, all the rest, was just a figment of me’s ‘magination. You know, no matter what else be goin’ on ‘round us, or how we may be feelin’, we’re bein’ blest every minute of every day. Even on our worst days, when things seem the darkest, ifin we take a moment to give fanks fur our blessings, we feel a bit better. 

 

 Raena sits on perch at door and looks up

 

          That’s right sissy. Mommy says every breath we breathe is a blessin’ that’s not guaranteed. Every furiend we’ve made since bein’ a pawrt of this wonderful world called the innernet, is a blessin’ we never could have imagined. The bond and carin’ shown amongst all of us is astonishin’ and awe inspirin’.

 

Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

You’re right ‘bout that Raena. A lot of our furiends our goin’ thru some tough times right now. It makes us sad that they have to go thru these trials. But, when we all band together in purrayer and suppurt, things change fur the better. We rarely unnerstand a trial, ‘specially while we’re goin’ thru it, but one way or another, we come out stronger and better on the other side. There are too many needs to list them all, and we wouldn’t wanna miss anypawdy; but you know who you are. Know, that we’re purrayin’ fur ya’ and sendin’ ya’ the biggest kitty hugs ever. Fank you all fur bein’ our furiends. Fur luvvin’ us, and suppurrtin’ us, and purrayin’ fur us in our time of need. We will always be here fur you.

 

 Raena lays on top of the Liberty Cat Tree

Mine’s selfie from atop the cat tree.

 

          Meowin’ of suppurt sissy, we need to fanky fank a few peeps fur donatin’ to mommy’s dental fund. A meowsy big fanky fank ya’ to awnty Theresa, awnty Kat and LouLou and awnty Suzanne. Ifin ya’ haven’t met our sweet furiend LouLou, you really should check her out. And, ifin you’d like to help mommy with her dental, you can donate thru the fundraiser here, or directly to our paypal with lexi.dezi@yahoo.com. We’ll be goin’ back to the dentist this week, cuz they said the “bite” impurrsion they took didn’t turn out and they need another one. Might have somethin’ to do with the huge overbite mommy has. Oh well, hopefully, this one will work. We just feel blest to be able to have this concern. And, I’s look furward to another mommy and me day out. Those are always soooooo much fun.

 

 Dezi gets loving while laying on the arm of chair-selfie

Me’s gettin’ luvvin’ selfie.

 

 

Uh, who said you were the one goin’ Raena? Ya’ know, me just might wanna go this time. But, we’ll meow ‘bout that later. Fur now, we just wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. And say a little purrayer fur all those in need, you may never know how much it was needed at that moment. We’re also joinin’ the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. Raena, let’s go play befur the storms come.

 

Till the next time……………………………………….…Be Blest!!!

Blest Sunday: Always Giving Thanks

C’mon Raena, we gotta get our Blest Sunday posty written befur the storms come back. We don’t wanna miss the oppurrtunity to give fanks fur all the blessings we’ve received.

  

 Dezi looks out door from atop the Liberty cat tree while Raena sleeps on the ledge below her

 

          Ifin you didn’t spend so much time UTB when it’s stormin’ sissy, we wouldn’t have to be in a hurry. ‘Sides, where’d these storms come from anyways? Mommy was just talkin’ to awnty Vonda, who was havin’ really bad storms, and sayin’ we were all clear?.

  

 Dezi atop the Liberty cat tree

 

Leave it to the weather guessers to get it wrong Raena. The furcast might have said all clear, but the skies had another plan. Anyways, speakin’ of awnty Vonda, what did you think ‘bout the purse she got mommy fur her birthday? 

 

 Raena peeking out from under packing paper

 

          I’s like it sissy, don’t you? And, did you see all that pawsum packin’ paper that came in it? What fun!!!

 

Yeah Raena, me can’t miss it. It’s all over the floor. You sure can be messy. 

 

          Messy?!! I’s just havin’ fun, sissy. 

 

 Dezi looks down from atop the liberty cat tree

 

Yeah, it does look kind’a fun Raena. Maybe me will join ya’ slidin’ ‘round the floor later. 

 

 Raena pees out from under the packing paper

 

          That’d be great sissy, there’s purrlenty of paper fur both of us. Ya’ know, mommy was really happy her purse had gone on sale. She has a sayin’ that you shouldn’t spend more fur a bag than you have to put in it. Altho’ awnty Vonda had sent mommy some “anything/furivolous” money, she still didn’t wanna waste it.

 

 Paw Print purse gift from Vonda

Mommy says Fank you awnty Vonda.

 

That’s true Raena. Mommy can hold onto a dollar and stretch it like it’s rubber. So, that sale was just what mommy needed. When awnty Vonda asked what mommy was gonna buy, she held off sayin’ till the purrice fell low enuff. And then, she got us some treats with the rest.

 

          Treats? Are we havin’ treats?

 

 Dezi eats Primal rabbit, duck and chicken and salmon

 

No silly, it’s brekky time. You know we don’t get treats till after we eat all our brekky.

 

          We better hurry then, cuz I’s want some treats. We sure are blest sissy. 

 

We are indeed Raena. But befur we go, we wanna say a meowsy big Fank you to awnty Carol and awnty Kathleen fur donatin’ to mommy’s dental fundraiser. We’re so close to gettin’ mommy all taken care of. Ifin you can help with a donation, share and/or a purrayer, we sure would ‘purreciate it. You can give thru the fundraiser here, or donate directly to our paypal at: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com.  

 

 Raena sleeps with her angelic face, close up

Here’s mine’s sleepy selfie. Mommy says i’s have an angelic face.

Pardon the blur, mommy was usin’ the telescopin’ lens.

 

 

          I’s so happy and x’cited fur mommy, sissy. Ya’ know, she’s had teefy purroblems since I’s came here. I’s bet she’s gonna be a whole new purrson when her mouth’s no longer in pain. And, I’s can’t wait fur tomorrow when we go to get impressions made fur mommy’s new teefies. She calls ‘em dentures and says once she’s healed she’ll be good as new with her fake teeth. 

 

Dezi and Raena eating Primal rabbit, duck and chicken and salmon freeze dried food

 

 

Me’s happy too Raena. Ya’ know, she’s had teefy purroblems since long befur you came here. She survived 3 rounds of cancer, several severe car accidents, and a couple really bad ‘bouts of pneumonia. Mommy says she had actually resigned herself to the fact that her teefies would be the thing that killed her. Fur years she’s been battlin’ infections and constant breaks. Me’s just glad she’s furinally gettin’ to feel better. And, that she’s gonna stay ’round fur a while.

 

 Profile of Dezi sitting on floor

Here’s me’s profile selfie.

 

 

          And on that happy note sissy, let’s wrap this up and see ‘bout gettin’ some of those treats you meowed ‘bout earlier. As always we wanna remind everypawdy to give thanks today and every day fur the many blessings in your lives. And, we’re linkin’ up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies.
