We had that an hour ago here.... I didn't even notice the time, I was too busy trying to get everything done before things started crashing over here again....... My niece made note of it in FB though!!

The satellite came back a while ago and we're watching Discovery Canada... Son does love Mythbusters!! LOL

AR, I remember doing all of the changing things over when Hubby and I got married... We got married on Nov. 10/01 and I had to wait until Tuesday to change things over because Monday was a government holiday because Remembrance Day fell on a Saturday and our gov't likes to take their holiday on a weekday up here............ I had everything changed over within a week of tying the knot!! LOL

I had waited NINE YEARS after officially getting engaged until the wedding though... Hubby and I have been together since September of 1991. Twenty years!!

It took Skywise and I four years to get to the altar. We will have been together 39 years as of later this month.

Thanks, hon. We met ten days after my 20th birthday and were married when I was 26. We've literally grown up together.

I met my husband exactly two weeks after my 17th birthday (18 days before his 20th birthday) through a common friend, and we started dating pretty much right away, things clicked between us that fast.

I've been with him ever since. I was 27 when I got married.

Sometimes things just happen that way. Odd thing is, the day I met him, I told our common friend that I wanted to enjoy the single life for a while. I was eating my words later that day....

hehehe I was dating someone else when I met Skywise and started dating him too. The other guy didn't measure up and got left in the dust. Skywise knows how to treat a lady, especially one he wants.....

I wasn't dating anyone at the time I met Hubby...

BUT...

I had been dating a long time friend on and off for a few months. He wasn't willing to make a commitment so when another guy asked me out on a date, I went out with him... That resulted in a relationship that was over pretty much before it started, it didn't last a month. I dumped the second guy a few days before meeting Hubby and was thinking about starting up things with the long time friend at the time, on an on and off basis... Hence the comment about wanting to enjoy single life for a while before dating anyone else seriously.

The hot water tank is ON now and we should have hot running water in just over an hour... It's a small tank so it doesn't take forever for the darn thing to heat up.

We also have a happy cat... Hubby bought home some hot pepperoni and I swear Miss Noelle did a dance when she smelled it... That cat LOVES ultra spicy food. I can hear her purring above the music and I have my ear buds in.................

Washer is finally and completely fixed.
Skywise collected "payment" for services rendered although I'm not really sure which of us got "paid."
One load is dry, one is drying and the third will be starting shortly.

Son is crying for the computer and I have to get supper on the way...

I'm going to head out for the night now, so Son can chill down and relax.

See y'all sometime tomorrow. Have a great night everyone!! Cheesy

Danger Princess just lived up to her name..

She walked up to the War Queen and touched noses. Her Majesty was NOT amused and thumped her -- claws in since the little one didn't squall. DP took cover while I let the Queen know that thumping on the kits was NOT allowed.  The Queen stalked off and the Princess went to get something to eat.

We are drowning in "cute" (the Princesses are awake, playing and slopping cute all over the place) and are heading for bed.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning!

Hubby is on his way to town to run some errands and Son and I are hanging out around the house. Son isn't feeling well today so I'll be keeping a close eye on him.

Today's kitteh insanity:

I was just sitting here minding my own business when I heard a very loud "ROOOOOOOOOOOOOWR!!!!!" behind me, which made me JUMP... Noelle was just looking for love and decided to let me know in one HECK of a loud way... Silly little furball!!

Anyway I am around for a few hours if anyone needs me... I may be quiet from time to time but I AM around!! Cheesy

Time to check the SP Pets and get another cup of liquid caffeine. Cheesy

You too, huh?

We're back, Skywise has the boycats and the Queen outside and the babygirlcats are running riot here in the house and looking adorable while doing it.

I got some black polar fleece (2 yards) for a lap robe today. I think Danger Princess approves.  I stretched out underneath it and, purring for all she was worth, she crawled under it too and went to sleep! I've already made a note that for throws and flat out blankets, I'll need to get 2.5 to 3 yard long pieces. STILL thinking about how to hang the mirror. I want it freestanding and moveable and that will take some planning.

One of my neighbors must have a cannon.
That is the ONLY explanation for the window-rattling, wall shaking "BOOMS!!!" we're hearing. NOT to mention the rifle and shotgun practice going on all around us. *sigh* I should get an anti-aircraft gun, I really should!
It's supposed to rain tomorrow. It will be wet but at least we should have some peace....

.. the mouse is now in our bedroom...

We heard a noise in our room, investigated and it was Danger Girl after the mouse (we have a baby mouser in the house). The Queen was watching and not getting involved. The Prince went in to assist, saw the Queen and backed off. So the mouse is in our room, hiding and the cats are biding their time. I, for one, hope that someone catches it before bedtime!

I REALLY need to kill someone -- not fussy about who. Fortunately, the people and felines in my immediate vicinity are safe in addition to a small select group of individuals farther afield. Anyone else takes their life in their hands if they look at me funny.
Probably a good thing that I'm going to bed. Hopefully one of the cats will dispatch the mouse quietly.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Afternoon.
I've been here for a while but too busy to post! We're under a wind advisory until this evening and the sound of the wind blowing is putting me on edge and the SunLord doesn't like it either, poor boycat.
