Back On Colour Again

I think my MH must be very clever 'cos she said I would be full of energy at bedtime and she was right. She wasn't too happy, but she was right! After my dinner I slept for most of the evening and then I helped my MH to fall asleep before I asked my DH to please let me out and he did, and I had great fun. I didn't do very much, but I wandered around my garden and then went into the fields for a while before I headed home for a sleep beside my MH. I cuddled up beside her and told her I was feeling a lot better and she was very happy then.

We were up very early this morning 'cos my humans were going away on the first boat but fortunately the weather was OK and they could leave the window open for me so I was able to get out to play for a while.It was quite warm and there wasn't much wind, so I was quite happy and soon my MH was back to me and that made me even happier.

The old boy decided to go to Kirkwall so he didn't come back till teatime,but me and my MH had the girlie afternoon that she promised me and I loved it. But then I always do! I am looking forward to our weekend and I hope you have a good weekend too.

A Little Off Colour

That's what I am. Oh, don't worry--- I am still black and white but I have been feeling a wee bit off today. Not ill or unwell or anything like that, but just not my usual bouncing self. I have spent most of the day sleeping and now I am on my MH's knee with my adorable little head on her keyboard and she is stroking me as she is typing this to you, so that is making me feel much better. Maybe I am just having a little lazy turn.

It was just a normal Thursday in my house with my DH doing lots of work outside and the old dear doing lots of housework inside, so there has been plenty of company for me. My MH says that I shall probably be full of beans when it is time to go to bed, but it is still a bit too breezy for her to leave the window open so I think I will have to stay inside even if I am bouncing off the walls! Hee hee

I have been told that I need to have a long sleep 'cos my humans are both going on the early boat in the morning and we all need to be up early, although as soon as I have seen them away, I shall be straight back into my little bed.My MH is only going away for a wee while and she will be back to me at lunch time, but my DH won't be home till tea time, so we will probably have a girlie afternoon and that is very fine by me.

Maybe I will have more energy and feel like playing then. I shall let you know.

A Funny Day

..not funny ha ha, but funny odd. My DH had to go to the doctor---just for a wee check up--he is OK--but he had to get the first boat so we were up early. I had a quick look out of the window and when I saw that it was windy, I decided to go back to bed beside my MH. I was in a lovely snooze when her alarm went off and I had to get up again!

I did wonder why she was up early but she told me she had to go to the dentist and she wouldn't be home till later so I was not very happy, but as usual I had to accept it. She didn't like the weather but off she went in her little kangaroo and I settled down to catch up with my sleep.

I was right in the middle of a lovely dream when I heard my door opening and I wandered through to the kitchen to see who had comed into my house and guess who it was? It was my MH!! She had gone to the pier but it was too windy for her little legs to get on to the boat, so she decided just to come back to me. And oh boy, was I a happy puss! I didn't even mind being wakened up AGAIN!!

We had a lazy day and she did a wee bit of housework, while I had a big sleep until the afternoon when the wind decided to go somewhere else and I was able to play without being blowed away. I stayed out for a while and then decided it was time for another nap, and I was sound asleep when all the little childrens came for their guitar lesson, so I was wakened up one more!

I have hardly had a decent sleep all day, but I shall make up for it tonight---I hope!!!

Ho Hum

I think the summer has gone away somewhere else 'cos it is certainly not on my little island. It has not been a very good day at all because it has been very windy although not too cold, so once I was out and in a sheltered place, it was actually quite pleasant but I know it is going to start getting colder now.

There is one good thing about the winter time and that is when my MH puts on her big furry dressing gown that I just LOVE! It is so soft and cuddly and I can have some beautiful sleeps on her knee when she puts it on. So the winter night times are good, but some of the winter day times are not to my liking.

We had some visitors to my house this morning, but just for a little while. It was long enough for me to be adored however and they told me I was beautiful. I did not argue. Well, it would have been rude, would it not? I let them stroke me and gave them one of my special purrs and they liked that. Their visit actually made up for a little disappointment that I had earlier.

I shall explain. You knew I would, didn't you? After my breakfast and wee drink of milk I nipped outside and I admit that I was out for rather a long time, but when I did decide to come back indoors, my MH had started changing the beds! Without me!! Shock, horror. I was not best pleased I can tell you. I just stood there staring at the old dear and she definitely got my meaning. She had the grace to apologise, so she is nearly forgiven.---Nearly! It is my very favourite game and one would have thought that she could have waited for me, but she didn't. However, when she saw how upset I was, she lifted me up onto the bed and cuddled me up in my blanket and we played together for a while, so that helped a little---but it wasn't the same!

I have been in and out lots and I am now resting on the old dear's knee as she is writing this for you and my adorable little head is resting on her keyboard, so if there are any black or white hairs on your screen, they might just be mine!!

Another Week

I wasn't just as happy today 'cos it was windy and cold, but it didn't keep me in. I just wasn't as warm while I was exploring and hunting, but I just kept moving quickly so that my adorable little body didn't get too cold.

I had a very good sleep through the night and me and my MH had one of our very special 'through the night' chats, or whispers, and I love those. I wakened up and it was very, very dark so I knew it was the middle of the night but I needed a wee cuddle so I tickled her lug with my little paw and she wakened up and cuddled me and we whispered for a wee while before we falled asleep again. But it was good. I like those special times.

Anyway, when we got up a while later, we helped my DH get ready to go to the Cat Shop and then me and my MH had a chat about what we were going to do. She told me she was going to do some housework and I told her that I would be going outside to explore and hunt until she was finished and that was fine. The weather looked not too bad but once I got out I realised it was a bit windy and it was cold, so I quickly found a sheltered spot and had a seat for a while as I watched lots of little birdies coming to the feeder at my house.

I like watching them when they are eating, but some naughty birdies fight with their friends and that makes me a bit sad. I wish I could tell them not to do that but if I go near them, they just fly away, so there is nothing I can do. Sigh! And that was my day really. In and out lots of times, although me and my MH did go into the gym for a while 'cos she wanted to clean all the inside of it after they had painted the outside, so naturally I had to go with her and make sure she didn't get lonely.

We stayed there for quite a while but she was happy with how it looked when we were finished, so it was back inside and a seat on the couch till my DH comed home again. It was a good day and I will probably be going back outside for a while before bed time.

It is getting dark earlier now but that doesn't bother me 'cos I have very good eyesight and can see very well in the dark, but I don't know how long I will be out.It will depend on the weather but I have a feeling I won't be staying out very late. We will see.

And Again

Oh I think my little weather man friend must like me lots and lots 'cos he has sended me more lovely weather so that me and my humans have been able to get outside all day.

We had our usual lazy morning just sitting on my couch and having a chat about what we might---or might not --do with our Sunday. I had already been outside, so to be perfectly honest, I was very happy sitting on my MH's knee and just chilling!

My DH went outside for a wander round our estate and when he comed in he told my MH that in a wee while he was going to paint her gym and did she want to help him? She told him she had a couple of things to do, but then she would go and do some painting and then they both looked at me and I told them I was DEFINITELY going out with them. Yahoo!

Soon, it was a wee while later and we all went out and while the humans were busy with the paint and the brushes I ran all over my garden chasing bit of pampas grass and nipping in and out through the fence to have a word with all my animal friends. h, it was just the best afternoon for a long, long time and I loved it.

The painting didn't take too long and it is all finished and we are all very happy with it. And me? I am resting now 'cos I was out until half past one in this morning, so I need a rest now before I head out again later on.

A Crackin' Day

What a surprise we all got when we wakened up this morning 'cos there was no wind and no rain but there WAS sunshine! Yippee. We were very happy. I gobbled up my breakfast and shot outside as quickly as I could and I loved it. It was warm and calm and dry and it made me very happy.

It took me a long time before I went back inside for my little drop of milk, but as usual, my MH had kept it for me and while I was lapping it up I heard her saying that she was going to wash her windows, so I knew I would be having lots of company outside and I liked that. My DH had lots to do outside too so we were all out for most of the afternoon and it was just magic!

My DH was moving the ornaments that were too heavy for my MH, so I followed him around and then I helped the Boss as she did her windows and when she was finished I asked her if she would play with me. You all know what she said, don't you? She said 'yes' of course and so we played.

I ran up and down the garden and I climbed the clothes poles which always makes my humans laugh and then I shot through the fence and into the fields to have a chat to some of my sheep friends. I had a brilliant time and stayed out as long as possible until my adorable little tummy told me it was feeding time and then I went back indoors and after my dinner I had a wee snooze.

I shall be going out again soon 'cos it is still a very good night and just the kind of weather I like.
