Time to go outside


I hear that there are some big wind storms up north, but here in our town there's not a breeze blowing, and it's really sunny. Mami got up early and mopped the floors and cleaned the kitchen and then she took a bike ride to the store for breakfast stuff. We had a big brunch of yummy bread and turkey sausage and hashbrowns and now we've got the windows open because it's so nice out.
I had big tummy troubles last night so Mami took me outside twice to eat grass. I feel a lot better now, but just in case, Mami didn't give me any sausages. Which was sad. But now she's going to go out and trim back some soggy branches and leaves in the yard and I'm going to go help. I need to stretch my legs a little!

Happy Birthday Lulu!



This weekend was Lulu's eighth birthday and since she's low-key about such things, we didn't celebrate with any big crazy party. Instead, Mami got her some party mix cat snacks for her breakfast, and she has a lot of fur mice to play with. Papi turned on the heater in the office so she could be toasty if she decided to hide out in there, which she did for most of the day. Mami was outside doing lots of yard work so I stayed in with Papi, who did a bunch of cleaning and then made Mami a big sammich. He brought it out to her and we sat on the front step and had a snack. I got the leftovers. It was great. Here we are this evening, all lounging on the bed with Papi, who is taking a nap. Still. You can see his feet in the photo. He gets sleepy really easy. Anyway, happy birthday Lulu!
