Static Kitty!

Click on the title (Static Kitty) and watch the Youtube video.
This video is so funny. Although you will notice they are prompting the cat to walk by luring a toy... and the balloon changes color once, its BRILLIANT!
So cute and funny I think every cat should get a balloon!

Its been a LONG TIME!


It's almost Valentines Day and I am divorced.... oh its not a bad thing, its been a long time coming and I am so much less stressed then I have been for the past 2 years. I have a new name, I have a new home, I have a new dog!
Today my joy is my dogs, and tomorrow it will be my granddaughter who is coming over the spend the day with me! We will make dog treats and I am sure she will want to make egg salad and white rice with "budda."
I truly am blessed with all I have, my family, my pets (aka family), my friends, my job, my home! So its been a long time, but I am back to blogging and will actually get better at it as time goes by

HOLIDAY EATING TIPS

(From an Email I received today)
1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Christmas spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they're serving rum balls.

2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly. It's rare. You can't find it any other time of year but now. So drink up! Who cares that it has 10,000 calories in every sip? It's not as if you're going to turn into an eggnog-alcoholic or something. It's a treat. Enjoy it. Have one for me. Have two. It's later than you think. It's Christmas!

3 . If something comes with gravy, use it. That's the whole point of gravy. Gravy does not stand alone. Pour it on. Make a volcano out of your mashed potatoes. Fill it with gravy. Eat the volcano. Repeat.

4. As for mashed potatoes, always ask if they're made with skim milk or whole milk. If it's skim, pass. Why bother? It's like buying a sports car with an automatic transmission.

5. Do not have a snack before going to a party in an effort to control your eating. The whole point of going to a Christmas party is to eat other people's food for free. Lots of it. Hello?

6. Under no circumstances should you exercise between now and New Year's. You can do that in January when you have nothing else to do. This is the time for long naps, which you'll need after circling the buffet table while carrying a 10-pound plate of food and that vat of eggnog.
7. If you come across something really good at a buffet table, like frosted Christmas cookies in the shape and size of Santa, position yourself near them and don't budge. Have as many as you can before becoming the center of attention. They're like a beautiful pair of shoes. If you leave them behind, you're never going to see them again.

8. Same for pies. Apple. Pumpkin. Mincemeat. Have a slice of each. Or if you don't like mincemeat, have two apples and one pumpkin. Always have three. When else do you get to have more than one dessert? Labor Day?

9. Did someone mention fruitcake? Granted, it's loaded with the mandatory celebratory calories, but avoid it at all cost.. I mean, have some standards.

10. One final tip: If you don't feel terrible when you leave the party or get up from the table, you haven't been paying attention. Re-read tips; start over, but hurry, January is just around the corner. Remember this motto to live by:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, Glass of wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Snuggling Makes a Joyful Kitty!

After beging home for at least 10 days since my cruise, I should be ashamed to say I haven't unpacked! But who could take this little kitty's Joy away by unpacking this overnight bag that makes such a great sleeping spot???
Here Mau-Mau cuddles up in my bag, a refuge from the dogs, and enjoys a warm snuggly sleep!
