Yeah, if only they weren't so fond of tearing up vegetable gardens!

Cats are cute when they flirt, aren't they?

Yes cats are so adorable when they flirt!! Amber especially so because of her big tummy... I just want to kiss it when she rolls around like that!! Cheesy Fortunately, she's pretty laid back and although she doesn't like a lot of tummy kisses, she'll let me do it...

Well, we have blue skies for the moment, although there are some clouds approaching from the west but I'm not sure if they're thunderclouds or not right now. I'll keep an eye out every few minutes.

The forcast keeps saying thunder showers here yet it doesn't deliver, we have been averaging about 97F with the humidex for the past 5 days now, (the worst day was 104)  The Bloke is on a 7 day stretch so we haven't gotten the AC in downstairs here yet :S  We're going to give it a shot tonight though if he's not too tired.  It's a massive thing and he's the only one who can carry it!   So if you don`t hear from me for a bit it`s probably because I`m a puddle on the floor waiting for a cold wind to resurrect me Tongue

Holy smokes, RT!! I thought it was hot and humid out here but y'all have us beat by several miles!

Stay safe, I know hot weather can be nasty!

I just changed my cover pic on my main (real name) page... I may be Canadian (and proud to be one!) but I have a LOT of family in the States, notably Hubby's cousins in the Boston area and my own distant cousins around North Carolina. Cheesy

Skywise isn't home yet [it's Monday, what do I expect?] but I'm tired and I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.Smiley Smiley

Morning.

I'm not sure how long I'll be on this morning, Hubby needs me as a "standby" driver just in case.

Heading out for now, just in case I'm needed. I'll be back either shortly or in a few hours.

See y'all on the other side. Cheesy

Afternoon.
I've been here for a while but between cats fighting, kids fighting, kids crying and needing to pay some bills, I've been a little swamped. Smiley Things have FINALLY settled down somewhat so I can sit down and actually make a post that is longer than two sentences! *sigh* It's too hot now to let the cats out -- we had to go into town to get some last minute things for the 4th -- and they are NOT happy about having to stay inside, hence the feline fighting. I'm gonna have to keep my rolled up newspaper handy today...

I'm here now too... I wasn't needed as a second driver but Hubby wanted me to tag along today so I could get out of the house for a while.

I'm pooped but glad I went, we got some goodies today like a ton of fresh veggies for me... Cheesy

The boycats have settled. SunLord is downstairs, lounging on my vanity bench last I looked, and the Prince is up here on top of the kitty castle so they are about as far apart as they can be and still be in the house. The kits are amusing themselves and not bothering the cranky, out of sorts grownups. So hopefully the rolled up newspaper will remain on standby next to the keyboard and not have to be used!

Amber hasn't ran me over yet but then again, I wasn't home for a while.... Roll Eyes She's currently sitting on the living room window sill, watching the birds flying around.

Birds are more interesting than running over a stationary human. Once the birds are settled for the night, watch out!

The kits have crashed and all is quiet now, thank the Gods!

Yeah Amber generally gets silly at night sometimes... I've been sitting on my comfy chair and out of nowhere that cat will FLY over me!! Roll Eyes Scares the socks off of me too..........

She's now passed out at the top of the stairs. I'm expecting an attempt at a dive bomb later when things start to cool down... Roll Eyes CATS.

No doubt screaming the feline equivalent of "COWABUNGA!!!" as she does so....

That's about the size of it! LOL

Even though Amber is a HUGE kitteh, she can move pretty darn quickly... And will run someone over ten times before they even know what hit them!! Cheesy

Gotta love the furry widdle monkeys though... Roll Eyes

Okay. I have a report that Martinsville's 4th of July fireworks have been postponed until Labor Day. Currently looking for confirmation from a second source....

Confirmed. Postponed until the Labor Day weekend. At least it "should" be cooler then....

Moonie is taking it well. Spirit not so much...

That stinks Penth, but with the way things have dried out your way maybe it's for the best. Sad

Snarky stuff away in FB....  Smiley

NOT aimed at anyone who is a member of Sanctuary, past or present or any other forum owners out there.... JUST SAYING!! Tongue

Yeah. It's supposed to be nearly 100 tomorrow, maybe more and the online source I found had a picture of the shelter at the top of the hill in the park where the HQ for the fireworks would be. All the grass around it is "dead" and brown and no doubt like tinder. They've also banned "personal" fireworks in town so there are going to be a lot of unhappy redneck yahoos in town tomorrow. I've called Skywise at work and told him so he can be thinking. Moonie is taking the news well, Spirit not so much. The concept of "they could set the town on fire!" hasn't sunk in yet.

Dinner is cooking. Finally.
Everything that I have printed of Book 1 is copied. Only about 250 pages (probably less. 250 is a guess.) left to go. And I'm gonna poke around the web and see what's doing.

Skywise is finally home -- work was a [censored] tonight -- and I am cross-eyed and dead on my feet so I'm going to drag my little self to bed while I still have a better than even chance of finding it!

Everyone sleep well and be safe! Smiley Smiley

Morning! Smiley

The gnawing on the monitor has stopped for the time being, I managed to get some writing done last night! Cheesy It needs a lot of work and some additions (I realized that AFTER I went to bed last night but it's an easy fix, I just need a few more descriptions added) but at least I'm back to making a little progress. I stayed up until 3 a.m. and I'm POOPED!!  Smiley I would have slept in longer but between Son screaming at something on TV and Amber sitting on my head at 9:30 a.m., that was it for me. Roll Eyes

I'll be here today, between housework and editing what I wrote last night (maybe even trying to fix things!) and trying to wake up....... Smiley

Time to get caught up and get more coffee into me!!
