Lazy Mama

It's been 2 weeks since we got Mama to help us blog & there is no good reason for it. She still hasn't started her jobbie yet. She doesn't know yet what age-group she'll be with, but she's hoping for Pre-School or Special Needs kidbeans. She has a Student Management class on Saturday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, hopefully she'll learn something.

It's also our county's Fall Color Drive this weekend so Mama will be gone the whole weekend. But then again, she's gone most weekends, leaving us all alone...

Anyway, we finally get her to help us blog, but does she take pictures of us to post?? NO! She saw a stray kitty out her car this afternoon & went to take pictures of it. When she stepped out the door, the kitty started walking up to the house. The kitty even stood up on Mama's leg & tried to come in our house! She is a very skinny kitty so Mama fed her some leftover roast beast......we don't even get roast beast!! Here's a pic of her standing up to get Mama.

Good News!!

Mama found out a little while ago that she got the jobbie that she interviewed for on Wednesday!! She is very excited & very nervous, but can't wait to start. It will be at least 2 weeks, she has to get fingerprinted & get a TB test, but they are backed up a bit.

She will be a Bus Rider for a school district, not in our community unfortunately. She will have to drive 25 miles to her new jobbie, which doesn't thrill her, but she has to work. She will be helping the bus driver keep all the kidbeans under control & safe on the bus. It shouldn't be boring & Mama is glad that she will still be working with kidbeans, it's what she loves to do.

We want to thank efurrybuddy for the crossed paws & purrs, we know they helped get Mama this jobbie!!

Crossed paws & purrs needed

Mama has a jobbie interview next week!!! Her first since she lost her other jobbie last May. Of course we wish she could just stay home with us, but we know she really needs to start making those green papers again. So, if efurrybuddy could cross your paws, purr or whatever that Mama gets this jobbie, we would really appreciate it!

We also want to wish Sweet Praline a furry Happy Birthday!! And thanks for letting Emma join in your slumber party!

Mama has a sad....

Mama's eyes are leaking tonight. She just found out that Patrick Swayze passed away. Our hearts go out to his family & friends.

Boring days......

Not much going on around here. Mama's been barking like a seal, moaning about allergies & just generally messing up our nap times. We even had to get out of our bed the other night!! No way could we sleep with her hacking & coughing....you'd think she would at least try to be quiet.

We do have some pictures to post though.

This was a nasty spider that Mama almost ran into the other day. She had to get the broom & knock it down before she could go food shopping. She wouldn't let us have it, wonder why?

Mama got this shot of Fes last night. He wouldn't look at her, but she likes this picture.

This is the blurp that Mama used to take care of. Today is her 1st birthday. She hadn't seen Mama in a few weeks & when Mama went to talk to her, this is what she did. Mama was a little sad because when Mama took care of her, the blurp used to want her instead of her own Mama or Daddy. Now the little blurp doesn't know Mama anymore. She sure misses those little beans.

No cats on the internet on 9-9-09??

Yeah, right!!

5th Gotcha Day for Festus

Mama was trying to get some good pics for the Gotcha Day celebration, but Fes was having none of it.

Here he's ignoring her.

We think he's flipping her off in this one.

And here he's sticking his tongue out at her.

Speaking of Drama.........

This little girl is Auntie Lori's new kitty (shhhhh, she's not supposed to have kitties in her apartment.). The kidbeans & Auntie Lori had seen her out & about for a few days. She was very friendly & one day when Auntie Lori was going up to her apartment the kitty walked in the door, went upstairs & made herself at home. She had no collar & is declawed, but she was very skinny. Mama thinks somebody just dumped her off.

Auntie Lori has been watching the paper to see if anyone lost a kitty, but nothing so far. The kidbeans named her Drama Queen, Drama for short. Auntie Lori & Mama don't think she likes that name....she won't even look at them if they call her that. So they call her Baby Girl, she seems to like that better.

Auntie Lori wants Mama to bring Baby Girl down here to live with us because #1, She doesn't want the landlord to find out she has a kitty & #2, Auntie Lori never had an indoor kitty before & her allergies are getting bad. Mama says she can't because #1, she already has 3 kitties & no jobbie & #2, she knows that Festus & Emma wouldn't be happy at all!! So Baby Girl is staying where she is for right now.......

Drama, drama, drama

Mama is such a Drama Queen!! She's had crap going on again & we've been trying to get her to blog for us to take her mind off it. But all we hear is "I don't have time.", "I don't feel like it.", "I'm not in the mood." & the one we hear the most..."I don't have anything to blog about that anyone wants to read."! Duhr, Mama!! You have three kitties.....what else do you need?

So, we've been basically eating, sleeping, playing & fighting everyday. It's been raining here about all week & we're really tired of that. We are not too fond of the crash & boom storms. But today it was finally dry, no crashes, no boomies, just a nice quiet day.

Mama didn't take any new pictures of us with the flashy box (How Rude!!), but she did get a couple of a rainbow we had the other evening. She used the Sunset mode on the flashy box, but she's not very good at taking pictures anyway.

RIP Charlie Taylor Sherwood

We just found out that Charlie Cat went to the Rainbow Bridge. We are so sad & our eyes are leaking something terrible. We feel so bad for the Sherwood Bunch.....we are purring & purraying for all of them.

In Loving Memory

Our 1st Blogoversary, YAY!!

We can't believe it's been a whole year since we started blogging!! And to think, it all started because Festus got so sick....

Mama had been reading us kitty blogs for a couple years or so, but never thought she could start one for us. Then last year Festus got so sick with a flea infestation, he almost went to the Rainbow Bridge. Mama had seen over time how the CB pulled together when a kitty was sick, so she e-mailed KC & ML to see if they could get some healing purrs going for Festus. They did & we got lots of loving comments from the CB & Mama saved them all!

If that wasn't enough, ML offered to do a fundraiser for the v-e-t bill. Mama was so touched (& shocked) that someone would do that for somebody they didn't know! There were a lot of days Mama had leaky eyes when she thought about it. She still does!

Then KC, ML & Auntie Deb offered to help us set up a bloggy of our own & here we are one year later! We can't thank them enough!! We also have to thank Ann from Zoolatry for our old header, our new header & our blogoversary graphic! And we want to thank all of our furiends for just hanging with us....we love you guys more than you know!

Thankful Thursday

We are thankful that Mama is feeling better, she still has some pain but it's getting to be less every day.
We are thankful for all of our furiends that have been purring for us, we really love you all!
We are thankful to have a home & a mama that loves us more than anything. We know there are lots of furbabies out there that aren't so lucky.
Last, but not least, we are thankful that tomorrow is our 1st Blogoversary!!

Lazy Sunday

Sorry we haven't been around much, we've been taking easy with Mama. Nothing much going on. Mama did go to a county fair Friday night & saw the Ferris wheel that used to belong to Michael Jackson, it used to be at his Neverland Ranch! She also found out it was made here in Illinois in a town not too awful far from here. That was kind of cool, but we didn't get to see it, we had to stay home by ourselves.......we never get to have any fun..............
