A Very Lazy Day Indeed

That's what we have all had today. The weather wasn't very good with more rain and some wind, so I have been in my house a lot with just one little wander round my garden which was very fine although a wee bit cold so I didn't stay out too long.


There wasn't much to do in my house either but I was able to do a lot of watching because the postie man brought some more parcels for me and they were wrapped up with string so I just sat and stared at said string until it dawned on my dear old MH that I needed to play, and play we did. Oh my dear friends, it was brilliant and we had the very bestest of times. It is great when we play with the string in my kitchen 'cos I can slide across the floor on the linoleum type stuff and it makes me go like the speed of sound plus my adorable little feets make lovely noises when they are flying across the floor, so I was very happy indeed.

A wee while later, the old dear decided to finish off all her cards, so I just plonked my adorable little self on to my couch and watched her and she talked to me all the time which I liked too.


So it has been a very good day indeed.

Better

Thank goodness the naughty wind decided to go away to some other place ‘cos all the noise it was making was giving me and my MH a sore head and that’s not good at all. My MH doesn’t like the wind so it is my job to make sure she is ok and I did that brilliantly, even if I do say so my adorable little self.

We were all up quite early in this morning as the old boy decided he needed to go to the town to get some messages so it was just me and my MH in my house and after she had done her housework, we played with my toys and she tickled me and wrapped me up in my blanket and I just loved it millions. It was just the bestest of fun.

When he comed home, my DH had lots of boxes ‘cos my MH had ordered some dinners for me and some litter and that all comed on tonight’s boat so it was like Christmas when my DH comed home. I get quite excited about Christmas but it will be my birthday first and that makes me more excited, but I like it.

I managed to get outside for a while and as soon as I have finished my after dinner snooze I shall head outside again even though it is a tad cold on this adorable little body. But I know I will get a ginormous warm me up cuddle when I come home and that makes it all worth while.

I just LOVE my cuddles. 😺

Oh Dear...

... my little weather man friend was very right last night when he said we were going to have a huge big wind because we did and it was not nice at all. I haven't been outside all day, but the good news is that the wind is going away some place else and I will probably get out before bedtime. I do hope so 'cos I need the fresh air and I want to see what is happening on my little island.

My DH didn't go to the Cat Shop 'cos the boat wasn't sure if it could bring him home again and he didn't want to go away and leave me and my MH all alone so he just stayed here with us and we all had a good day. I played with my MH and had lots of little naps and my humans did wee bits of work and looked after me so it was a fine day---inside my house, anyway!

You will probably have worked out that I don't have any news for you but I am doing fine and right now I am all cuddled up on my chair on top of my MH's fleece and I am as cosy as toast and very happy indeed.

Oh Dear

... I was listening to my television tonight and now I wish I hadn't 'cos my little weather man friend has just told me that there is going to be a great big wind on my little island tomorrow and I don't think I am going to be able to get out to play.

My DH is a bit upset too 'cos he might not be able to go to the Cat Shop so we might all be at home again tomorrow and none of us will be able to get out to play so that has made me a wee bit sad. But then when I had another wee think, I realised that if I asked my MH to pay with me then she would and I would get all the exercise I need.

Sometimes the little weather man gets it wrong and I am hoping that this rotten wind won't come, but I will just need to wait and see and of course, I will let you know.


Me and my MH had a lovely surprise this afternoon when our friends P. & H. phoned all the way from Germany just to see how we were and the humans had a long chat while I just sat and purred---and listened. I have a little German pussy cat friend called Maja and we have seen pictures of one another. Maybe sometime I will go to see her if I can work out how to get there.

I think if I can get to the pier on my little island, the rest will be easy so I need to start thinking, but I need a nap first. Thinking can wait for a wee while.

And another week begins

Just another normal day in the life of this adorable little puss. Me and my DH were up first and he let me out to play while he was getting ready to go to the Cat Shop. It was a glorious day although a wee bit cool but it was bright and dry and there was no wind, so I just sat on my path and thinked a lot and I liked it.

Once my thinking was all finished, I nipped back into my house just in time to waken up my MH who gived me a big 'good morning' cuddle and then we both got organised to see what this Monday would bring us. I had a wee bite of breakfast and then went out again 'cos there were some birdies in my garden and I wanted to say hello to them and then when I went in for the second time my little drop of milk was waiting for me and as I was drinking that, the old boy said bye bye and went away on the boat and me and the old dear had a seat and a chat about what she needed to do and I just purred in support. She likes that.


And so it was just a normal Monday with my MH doing her housework and me having lots of snoozes as well as a few trips outside into the fields to see what was happening and then she did some of her cards while I sat on the back of my couch and watched her.


It was a very good day indeed.

Me and my Shadow....

OK. I know it's not really a shadow in this picture but 'me and my reflection' doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? Hee hee

I have had another very good day indeed and although it was cold, it was still fine enough for me to get out to play whenever I wanted, and the very bestest bit was that one time me and both my humans were outside together when they decided to tidy the gym 'cos it was getting very messy after all the paint and stuff was put in there and now my MH is very happy 'cos it is all clean and tidy and she can let her little legs do their exercises again. I like when she goes into the gym 'cos I can go with her and do some sniffing while she is working so we will be doing that later in the week.

I don't have a lot of news but I have had a very good day and I have liked it lots. I have had wee whiles in my garden and big whiles in my house playing with my MH and having snoozes so my day has been very good. In fact, my weekend has been very good indeed and I hope you have had a good weekend too.

Super Saturday

Today has been all about me and that has made me a very happy little puss indeed. Both my humans were at home with me and because they wanted to watched some football and rugby, they didn’t do any work which was brilliant, but it also means that the Boss still doesn’t know what my DH didn’t do yesterday. Oh dear, she will probably find out tomorrow and then there will be trouble. But that’s for another day.

But back to today. The weather wasn’t too bad so I was outside quite a lot just having a wee wander round my garden. I don’t go far away ‘cos there isn’t very much for me to do and there are no little animal friends to play with so I am happier inside my house especially on a day like today when there was lots of time just for me.

Me and the old dear are all cuddled up on my couch now watching the dancing and I am very happy indeed and I hope you are happy too.

Just As I Hoped

Normal! My day has been normal and I have been very, very happy indeed. Me and my MH were up first and we had a long seat on my couch while she stroked my little lugs and told me all the things she needed to do with her day and I just purred as I was listening.


She told me she was going to be a wee bit very busy 'cos she had to do today's work as well as all the things she didn't do yesterday when she went away with my DH and abandoned me, so she had lots to do, but I didn't mind 'cos she was at home with me and even though she is very busy, she always finds time to come and cuddle me wherever I am, and that's what she did today, so I was very content. Very content indeed.

It was quite a good day so I was able to get out to play lots of times which was brilliant and to make it even better my DH was outside as well. Between you and me, I don't think he really wanted to be outside, but the Boss has decided to have a big cleanout of everywhere---inside my house and in the gym and the greenhouse--- but she needs my DH to do lots of the lifting so he got his orders today and me and him had long chats while we were sitting in the greenhouse as he thought about what he needed to do.


He actually did a lot more thinking than doing and I have a feeling the Boss is not going to be happy when she goes out tomorrow to see what he has done 'cos he hasn't done very much at all.

As I said, just a normal day in the life of this adorable little pussy cat!

Hmmm

... my little life is a wee bit all up and down just now and I am getting a tad confused with it all. I just want to be normal again.

It all started when lots of workmens comed to my house to put in new radiators and take away all my electric heaters and it was noisy and dusty but I managed. There was some normal for a wee while after that and that was good and I thought it was all going to be fine. Then my humans and one of our friends started upsetting my living room and all my bedrooms to put new paint on the walls. It was all messed up and the paint was a wee bit smelly, but I managed and since then it has been a lot better but recently my humans have been out quite a lot and I have been left all alone and it happened again today and they had to go to Stromness in this afternoon and I had to stay in my house. I was not happy.


However, when they comed home, I sat on my MH's knee and she told me that everything was going to be normal for us all again for a while and that made me very happy.


I am looking forward to 'normal'.

A Funny Day

Not a funny ha ha kind of day but a funny odd kind of day. My DH decided not to go to the Cat shop today 'cos it was a wee bit very windy and he had a sore leg, so he stayed at home with me and I thought we would all be together, but then my MH went away out so it was just me and him.

The Boss had to go to a meeting in the Hall and she was away for quite a while but when she comed home, she brought two ladies with her that I had never met before and I was a wee bit nervous at first, but they thought I was adorable so I very quickly settled down and I even sat on one ladies knee which made her very pleased. We all sat and I listened very carefully as all the humans talked and I liked it lots. In fact I liked it so much I think I falled asleep for a while.

When I wakened up, I nipped up onto my window sill and I made all the humans laugh 'cos I started making my very angry growling noise and I was even hissing because there was another pussycat in my garden! This puss has been coming into my garden lots of times and even when my humans try to shoo it away, it won't go. It is a brave puss but it shouldn't be in my garden, should it?


My night time is normal again. We have all had our dinner and while the old dear is telling you all about me, I am all cuddled in beside her on my couch with my adorable little head on her laptop. I know it makes things a wee bit more difficult for her, but I love sitting there so she doesn't mind on e little bit.


In fact, I think she likes it as much as me!

Not Much News...

... but everything is very fine in my little world. Me and my humans had a very good sleep last night and I spent most of the night cuddled up beside my MH which is one of my very favourite places.

We were all at home today 'cos my DH doesn't go to the Cat Shop on a Tuesday so there was lots of time for me 'cos when one human was busy, I just went and found the other one. No problem at all! The weather was quite good so I was outside lots of times and one of the times when I was out, I got a wee bit of a surprise because the nice farmer man from next door comed into my garden to take away all the heaters and things that the workmen left when they were in my house so the Boss is very happy that our garden is looking tidy again.


I will tell you a wee secret. She doesn't like a mess or when things aren't where they should be and my DH isn't the tidiest person in this world, so the old dear gets a wee bit peeved sometimes, but today she was happy and that was good.


We are watching the football just now on my television and Scotland are playing so we have everything crossed that they can score some goals. I hope so...… but?

Just the way I like it

That is how my Monday has been. I wakened up when my DH's alarm went off and I got up with him so that he could feed me and then I nipped outside for a wee while till it was time for the old dear to get up and then I let her give me another little bit of breakfast which I gobbled up.


I sat on her knee while she finished her cereal and then I lapped up all my milk before wandering back through to my bedroom for another little nap while my MH did all the hovering and dusting but as usual she comed to find me every now and then and I got a great big cuddle. When she does that I don't mind all the hard work she does 'cos I just love my cuddles.

The rest of my day was just kind of normal with a few nips into my garden and lots of little snoozes. I even had a wee while out with my MH when she asked me to help her feed the birdies but we didn't stay out too long 'cos it was just a tad cold and so we scooted back into my house and got warmed up again.


I am now back in my favourite spot which is on my MH's knee with my adorable little head on her laptop while she is telling you all about me. Life can't get much better, can it?

And a Very Good Sunday

I am very happy. My house and my humans are just the way I want them. They have been at home with me all day and there has been no work at all, so all the time has been for me. I am pleased!

And, I have a new trick. I have been perfecting it for a wee while now and it is just right. You know I always get a little drop of milk when my MH finishes her cereal? Well, when she offers it to me when I come in from hunting and prowling, I have a sniff at it, a wee look at the old dear, and then strut off to my bed, and wait! And sure enough, a wee while later in she comes with the milk, so I can lap it up in comfort. YES!

I am not spoiled. Just very, very loved!

A Super Saturday

I wasn’t very happy last night ‘cos both my humans went away and left me in my house and because it was cold, they had to close the window. Sigh. There was a party in the Hall and of course us pussycats can’t go. However, they weren’t too late and as usual I sat on my MH’s knee while she told me all about it and that made me feel a lot happier.

Today she had to go back to the Hall to help with all the cleaning up and when she comed back, she was a wee bit tired and decided she needed a little cat nap, so to help her get a very good sleep, this little cat helped her to nap! Hee hee She just loves it when I cuddle up to her and we snore together.

We are now snuggled up on my couch watching Strictly and I for one am very happy indeed.

A Much Happier Squeak

I have had a good day. Both my humans were at home with me and although my MH had to go out, it was just for a little while and the old boy was still in the house with me, so that was just very fine indeed.

It wasn't too bad a day for weather although it was a little bit on the breezy side for me but I didn't let it keep me in. Oh no indeed. When my MH was going out, I went out with her but she went away in her little kangaroo so I had to stay in my garden but when I got cold I just nipped up onto the window sill and my DH let me in. I had a wee cuddle, something to eat and then I went out to play again. Actually, I wasn't playing I was looking for my MH to come back to me and I was in luck 'cos her little kangaroo just arrived as I was coming round the corner and so I ran to meet her and she liked that lots.

When we got inside my house, I got a big cuddle and I liked that lots so we were both happy. My day has been really good and I hope you have had a good day too.

A Wee Bit Lonely

I have had an ok day but not the bestest day ‘cos my MH went away on the boat with my DH and yours truly was left all alone. Sigh. She did tell me last night that she had to go to Kirkwall to see an optician man. Now, I don’t really know what that is, but when she comed home tonight, she told me she had passed and the optician man was happy with her so that was good, sure it was?

I was fine in my house and although it is much better when my humans are with me but I sat on my window sill for a while and I sleeped for a while till I heard the door opening and they were back to me again. As soon as the old dear sat on my couch, I jumped up on her knee and just purred and purred while she tickled me and told me all about her day and I liked that a lot.

I liked it a very big lot!

Still Very Fine

I am liking my days a lot just now. The weather wasn't too bad so I was able to get out to play which was good although my little island is quite quiet just now with all the little birdies away to somewhere warmer and lots of the cows in the barns for the winter. I don't know where the sheeps have gone but they are not in the fields beside my house, so there isn't anybody for me to visit when I go out which is a little bit of a shame.

I got a wee bit of a shock when I was getting ready to go out my living room window 'cos in the fields were some huge birdies--- even bigger that me, and I don't mind telling you I was a little bit frightened 'cos I am sure they could have tooked me away if they had wanted.

I told my MH that I felt safer sitting on my window sill and she told me these big birdies were gooses and they would probably fly away if I went near them. The word 'probably' didn't do a lot for my confidence, so I just sat there for a while and watched them till one of the farmers comed into the field with a tractor and all the gooses flied away.


And then yours truly got out to play!

Hello Again

My Monday has been very normal, but very normal I like, thank you very much. I didn't manage to write to you yesterday 'cos my humans were away to something on the Mainland and didn't come back to me until quite late and by the time they did get back my poor old MH was too tired to write so I hope you didn't worry about me.

But today has just been normal and I have been very happy. My DH went away to the Cat Shop and I helped my MH do all her housework and the poor old dear was quite busy but she told me that I made it all a lot easier for her and that made me very happy.

All the painting is finished and my DH just needs to put all his stuff away tomorrow but I asked my MH to put this picture on for you to remind you of what I suffered a wee while ago. Hee hee. I am very fine, though and now that it all done and finished, I am very happy and content and last night I had a very good sleep all cuddled up beside my MH knowing that my life, and hers, was just normal again.


There is absolutely nothing wrong with normal, is there?

Did you know...

... that cats can sing? Not out loud of course, it sometimes it just sounds like purring but to a very observant human, it is singing. And I have been singing all day and I am sure you will all know why. My house is back to normal again and I have had lots of cuddles so I am a ecstatic tuneful puss. Yippee!

It had been a very fine day today both inside and out so I have had a very good time in my house and in my garden, but do you know what happened to me lat night? I know you don’t but I just wanted to ask you anyway. My DH FORCED me to go out. Shock, horror. It was just before bedtime and he wanted to get to sleep. I wanted to be outside but couldn’t quite make myself get over the door, so he picked me up and put me out! I wasn’t singing then, I can tell you!!

I stayed out for a very short time and then banged on the window for him to let me in, which he did. Phew. I have made up for it today so I have been a very happy Squeak and I hope you have been happy too.

All Done!!

At last, the painting is all finished! All done. No more and I am happy--- VERY happy. Me and my MH were up first this morning and as soon as she had finished her breakfast and I had drinked up all the milk that she left me, we went and found the paint brushes and the white shiny paint and she put some of this on all the wood in our study room and I have to admit that it does look a whole lot nicer now.

I wasn't too upset at this 'cos I could sit on one of the chairs and watch her and when she knew I was there, she talked to me which cheered me up a lot. It didn't take too long to do all the paintingand soon all the work was finished and I watched very happily as she put the lid on the paint tin and put her brush away.

It was time then for my DH to start tidying everything away and put all the stuff back in the room that should have been in the room and I just wandered around my house purring and smiling inside me 'cos I was a very happy pussycat.

There is still a wee bit of work to be done just putting everything back in its right place but that is Ok 'cos I can help with that and then the rest of the time will be for me. Yahoo!


It has been very windy today so I haven't been outside very much but I shall have to find my intrepidness---if it hasn't been painted on!--- and head out into the gale before bedtime. But I think it will be for just a very little while 'cos I do not like the wind.


Big Sigh!

Painting Update

So, it was just as I thought. I knew when I saw my humans putting on their old clothes that it wasn’t going to be my bestest day and as usual, I was right. Sigh! After breakfast the old boy appeared with all the cloths to cover the furniture and the paint and rollers and I took my adorable little self off to find a resting place that didn’t have ‘stuff’ on top of it and lay and sulked for a while till I falled asleep.

I did have a wee wander into the room where my humans were but I was frightened that I might end up pale blue, so I just lay on my couch and waited for my MH to come and give me a wee cuddle, which she did when she wasn’t throwing paint on the walls. It was quite funny one time ‘cos my DH comed to see me and he had a blue cheek and some of his beard was blue, but me and my MH didn’t tell him. We just smiled.

So where are we now, I hear you ask. Well, all the blue is finished but tomorrow my MH has to put the white shiny paint on the wood bits and that is the very,VERY end! Yippee. I am so happy at that bit of news.

The rest of their time is all for me. Just me. And I think I deserve it. Don’t you?

My Wednesday.....

... was just a normal Wednesday. Me and my DH were up fist 'cos he had to get ready to go to the Cat Shop and it is the rule in my house that whoever is up first gives me my breakfast and then lets me out to play if the weather is to my liking.

So, I trotted into the kitchen with the old boy and waited patiently while he put my food into my dish. He is not quite as quick as the Boss, but he is getting better. I had a wee nibble at that and then I wandered into my garden for a while and by the time I went home again, my MH was up and having her breakfast, so I sat on her knee and waited very patiently until I got my wee drink of milk which was really good.

I stayed with my MH till the old boy went away and then I went back to bed while she did a little bit of work, but she wasn't too busy so every now and then I got a special cuddle and I was very content indeed.


I have been told officially that tomorrow is another painting day and they are going to be working in the study so yours truly will have to find some place different to have my daily snoozes. BUT, I have been promised that when this room is finished, then ALL the painting work is done. Finally!

And I for one will be very, very happy.

I think......

... my humans are up to something again 'cos all the things have been taken out of the study and put into another room, so I have decided that they are going to be painting in there now and I am not at all happy about it.

I have had a good day though 'cos it was mainly my DH who was doing all the hard work, so me and my MH sat together for a while and she cuddled me and talked to me all the time and that cheered me up a wee bit, but every time I went into the study to see what was happening, I was a wee bit cross and needed an extra cuddle.

I have discovered, through my powers of listening when they think I am asleep, that they are going to paint the study on Thursday and I have been promised that after that all the brushes and paint pots are going to be put away for a very long time, so I guess I shall just have to be a patient puss.

I shall try, but it won't be easy!

Normal Monday

…. except I had lots of visitors in this afternoon which I like lots. My day started off just the same as all the other ones with me and my MH sitting together on my couch while my DH went away on the boat to go to the Cat Shop, and then I had a wee snooze while the old dear chased the vacuum cleaner all over my house. Just a normal Monday!

That was about all the excitement for the morning but I was quite content 'cos every now and then, my MH would find me and sit with me which was lovely, but then the afternoon got even lovelier when my friend M. comed to see me for a little while but after he went away my other two friends S. and M. comed to my house to see me and the rooms that my humans had painted and they liked it all. They stroked me and talked to me lots and that made me very happy.


So, that has been my normal Monday and I have liked it very much. I like normal!

Squeak's Sunday

I am happy. There was no work in my house today just as my humans promised, so there was lots and lots of time for me---and I was able to have a rest in whatever room I wanted, so I have no complaints about my Sunday at all.

It wasn't a very good day for weather 'cos we had wind and some rain and it was cold, so I stayed in my house for nearly all of the day but I was very happy doing that, although I will probably have a wee while outside before bedtime because the fresh air helps me sleep and if I am sleeping well, then my MH sleeps well too. See?

I don't have very much news for you at all because I haven't been doing very much except sleeping and being cuddled but I needed to tell you that I am very well and very happy and I hope you are well and happy too.

Good News and Not So Good News

The good news is really good news 'cos all the painting is finished, but the not so good news is that my humans have decided to do more next week and I am not at all happy!

We have had a good day today with just little bits of work putting all the things back in the rooms again but there was lots of times for me and I got as many cuddles as I wanted and right now me and my MH are sitting on my couch watching the dancing so I am very happy and I have been told that tomorrow there will be NO work at all and the whole day is just for me! Yippee!

However, when I was having a snooze, I sort of overhead my humans talking and although they were whispering so that I wouldn't waken up, I used my supersonic hearing to listen and I kind of wish I hadn't because they had a big discussion and have decided to paint the study at the end of next week so that all the rooms have been made lovely again. I am not best pleased but I do understand and because it isn't a very big room, they will be finished quickly and it also means I will be able to sniff in places I haven't sniffed before, so I guess it's not all bad news.


But I am going to be one very happy puss when all the brushes are away FOREVER!

More Painting!

Oh dear, I knew it wasn't going to be a good day for me when I saw all the brushes, rollers and paint pots coming out again and I was right and this time it was my spare room that the humans were painting. The good side of it all was that the weather was very good so I could wander out to play when it all got too much for me and then I could come back in and lie on the bed while the humans painted round about me, and they talked to me as well while they were working so it wasn't too bad really.

The room is a nice pink colour which I like lots and I even managed to go in and out of the room lots of times without being a pink puss which I thought was very clever of me. But we all knew that already, didn't we?

I think the work is nearly all done although the Boss told me she has to do something tomorrow with gloss paint but she has promised that it will be all finished by Saturday and then all the time will be for me and I am looking forward to that.


It hasn't been all that bad really although I have felt a wee bit lonely at times but when my MH notices that, she stops what she is doing and cuddles me and that makes me feel millions better.

So, life's not all that bad after all!
