Ok, I'm not a big fan of cats, but.....

I overheard my mom talking to a neighbor about her cat (who tortures me by the way). The neighbor told my mom that her cat was taken into the home of another neighbor, who felt that the cat was 'dirty' and it needed a bath, so she gave it one without the prior knowledge (or consent, mind you) of the cat's owner....can you imagine? I can.

Funny thing is that the cat is loved by its owner and well cared for and kept. Crazy is as crazy does.

Queen for a day

What a day! On my morning stroll we were greeted by a special needs man with a friendly "hello!". Upon further inspection, he asked what kind of dog I was, and was I "a cocker spaniel?" (pahleez!). My mom quickly replied that I was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. To which he said 'oh, royalty.....that must make you a princess' which she liked very much.

It's a beautiful spring day, rain to come this weekend and all next week. I'll maintain my reign indoors from the comfort of my throne.

It's been a realy rough winter.....so much snow, and ice dams that damaged the roof/floors....more work, more people in my house disrupting my happy little cavalicious life.

I also notice my family is growing up.....gearing up for bigger things, they are maturing (physically and mentally). I love watching them. I am so proud of them. They are all very good students, athletes, and people....they make my mom so proud!

Soon, there will be a lot of changes, I am looking forward to it. My oldest kid (nearly 14) is prompting my mom to get a 'cooler' car so in a few years she has a 'sweet' ride. It's all good. My mom is hoping to get a 'job'....although it's virtual, I know she can do it.

I am spoiled rotten and love it, and everyone loves me - what could be better than that?

It has been a rough winter....lots of snow - record breaking amounts I'm told. More rain and snow is due this weekend.

Happy New Year

It's a new year - here's to a happy 2011. Construction is finally done, I have my back yard back and am very comfortable in front of my new fireplace. We've had a little snow the day after Christmas which was very nice, but I'm glad most of it's gone, it's hard for me to hop around through it all.
