Mama tricked us!!!

On Friday, Mama told us she had to go to town (about 27 miles away) to get her flu shot, order her new eye glasses & go food shopping. She said she would be home in the afternoon. We waited and waited....... waited some more and finally, around 5:00 Mama's friend came in & gave us more food & water. Mama didn't come home all night!!
Mama usually goes trick-or-treating with Auntie Lori & the kid-beans & stays overnight with them cause she can't see well enough to drive after dark. She left them a message that she wasn't going to do that this year cause she had too much going on. Well..... Auntie Lori called Mama while she was food shopping & talked Mama into coming out for a visit.
When the kid-beans got home from school, they begged & begged Mama to stay to go trick-or-treating with them. She kept telling them no, but then, Auntie Lori held the phone out to her & said that Mama could call her friend to check on us. Mama could resist the kid-beans, but she couldn't resist Auntie Lori.....so she ended up going trick-or-treating & staying overnight like usual.

Auntie Lori & Mama sat in the van & Uncle Phil drove the kid-beams around. Usually Mama & Auntie Lori dress up for Halloween & walk around with the kid-beans. They didn't dress up this time.........Auntie Lori said she was going as a stroke victim this year. She is still really weak on her left side & when she gets tired or agitated, she has a hard time speaking. She goes in Tuesday for her lumbar puncture, so if you could send some extra purrs for her we would appreciate it.

We know our blogging has been sporadic at best, but Mama starts working full-time tomorrow & it make take her awhile to get into a routine. She's been working part-time for a few hours in the afternoon, but now she will be working from 2:00 pm until about 11:45 pm. We don't know why she calls it work cause all she does is play with the sticky-bean & the blurpy baby-bean, but their mama goes back to work tomorrow so Mama's gonna have full care of them. Mama is pretty much a night-owl, but she will need to get up earlier in the mornings to do things around the house before she leaves for work. So she won't probably have as much computer time as she has had. Please bear with us & we'll make Mama blog as much as we can.

Before we forget, Parker's right, diabetes SUX!!! Our granny had it & our Auntie Lori has it too. We need to find a cure!!

We are purring for your Aunt Lori and hope her recovery is swift. Our Grammy also had diabetes, so we are going to be putting up the badge too.
