More Resting

Yes. That's what I have been doing although I was up and out playing VERY early this morning. My MH had to go away out really, really early and so I had my breakfast before seven 'clock and I was outside before some of the birdies were awake. My, they did get a shock when they saw me!

I had good fun and then I went inside just as my DH was getting up, so I pretended that I was very hungry and he gave me some more food. Hee hee. When he told my MH when she came home, she scolded me and said I would end up with a very fat tummy, or puggy, as we say in Orkney, but I am sure I won't, 'cos I do so much running and playing.

My MH came home and did some more housework, but not what we had done yesterday 'cos that is still perfect, and then 'cos she was a wee bit tired, she lay down on her bed and I helped her to have a good sleep by cuddling in beside her and she liked that.

My humans don't like early mornings and avoid them if they can. My MH used to be a teacher and had to get up very early for lots of years, but now she is old and retired, she doesn't, and she likes that. I still manage to get her up early if I am in desperate need of a feed or a play or just a cuddle, but 'cos she loves me, she doesn't mind and then sometimes, when I come in from outside, we snuggle up together and make purring and snoring noises.

I will leave you to work out who makes which noise!

What a day!

As I told you yesterday, my MH was going swimming today and yes, she did leave me and my DH a BIG list of things to do, but we got them all done and she was pleased with us.

Before we started all her work, we had to do our own work and so we headed into the greenhouse where we picked a couple of wee baby tomatoes. My DH isn't very happy with his tomatoes this year 'cos they haven't gone very red yet, but mine have been just perfect which, I know, will not surprise you at all. I think he might have to learn to purr to them like I do.

After that, we cleaned all my living room and then washed my kitchen floor which took us quite a lot of time 'cos it was a wee but mucky.

I went out to play after that, but I was quite tired after all my housework, so I just went home again and waited for my MH to come back and when she did, she gave me an extra big cuddle and told me and my DH that we had done well, so I left them chatting and I went away into my wee hoose, for a well-earned rest.

The weather is quite good tonight, so if I am not too tired, I will go out and do some hunting later on and I will tell all my little animal friends how busy I have been today. I am sure they will be amazed at how hard I have worked.

I suppose you are quite amazed too?

Here is a wee song for you

It's raining, it's pouring, this pussy cat is snoring.

Did you like that? I am sure you did. I have been a bit bored today 'cos it has been wet, and I decided to sing a wee song to my MH and she liked it so I thought I would share it with you too.

I have been sitting on my window sill ready to dive outside as soon as the rain goes off and I did manage to play for a while before it came back on again. Oh dear, I wish my little weather man friend, Sean would send me some good weather for a long time.

It was very windy last night when my MH was in the kitchen making our dinner and she heard a dreadful noise and it was a slate coming off my roof, so when the weather is better, my DH will need to climb up on top of my roof and put it back again and if I am feeling very brave, then I shall probably climb up with him.

My MH is starting her swimming again tomorrow now that all the children are back at school 'cos there is more room in the pool, so I shall be left in charge of my house and my DH, but no doubt the Boss will leave us plenty of work to do.

If it is wet, I might just make up more songs to sing and I will share them with you if you like. My MH sings a lot and she plays her guitars and her ukelele, so maybe I can join in with her sometime and we can be a choir.

All Better

My MH is all better again 'cos she went to see the lady tooth doctor and she filled the hole in her tooth, so it is not hurting any more and my MH is happy again. And you all know what happens when my MH is happy? Yep! We are ALL happy!!

I was left in charge of my DH and I helped him in our greenhouse but we didn't do very much more 'cos the wind was blowing a lot and it wasn't very good outside, so I spent most of the day lying on my couch and dreaming of chasing and hunting, so I suppose that is nearly as good. Isn't it?

Today's picture was taken when I was outside on Sunday with my MH and our friend S. and I had to get into the shade under our bird bath, so I am afraid the little birdies didn't get a bath that day. I hope they weren't too smelly! Hee hee :))

I am going to settle down on my MH's knee now 'cos I missed her cuddles today and I know she would have missed me too. I don't think I will be going out tonight 'cos it is still raining and the wind is still blowing a bit too much for me, but if it goes away, then I might go wandering and terrorising.

I do both so beautifully!

I was only trying to help....

.... but it went a wee bit wrong. Oh dear! I shall explain, so are you sitting comfortably?

Well. My MH wakened up this morning with a sore toothache. She thinks she has broken one of her teeth and her face was a wee bit sore, but it is OK 'cos she is going to see the teeth doctor tomorrow and she will make it better.

But. I didn't like to see my MH having something sore, so I snuggled up beside her and decided to give her cheek a wee pat with my adorable little head, but I think I did it a wee bit too strong. I didn't know my MH could jump that high!! Hee hee :)
It was alright though, and as usual, she forgave me.

I thought I might be able to go out and play today like I did yesterday but the weather is very bad and we have all been in the house ecxept for my DH who has spent most of the morning chasing my garden ornaments which have been blowing all around my garden. My DH told me it will soon be time to put them away in their box until next summer, so I will need to help him to do that.

Me and my MH made pancakes and some fruit buns which are my DH's favourites and I had my own special pancake again which I gobbled up before going for my afternoon siesta.

It is raining now, so I will need to wait and see what my little weather man friend, Sean, says and then I will decide if I will venture out or just curl up on my MH's knee, as long as I remember not to head-butt her on the sore tooth any more.

That, I think, would be a very good reason for Squeak soup!! Once is an accident---twice and I am definitely in the stock-pot!! :)))

Fun Time

It has been a good day today so I have been outside nearly all the time and that has made me very happy. The sun has been shining and it has been warm. In fact, at one point in the afternoon, it was nearly too hot for me.

My friend S. came to see me and she and my MH sat outside on my bench and of course, yours truly had to be there as well, but I had to shelter under our bird table 'cos I was too hot. I could still see them and hear them talking about me, but I was in the shade so it was a bit cooler.

I went with my humans to do their work. My DH went into our greenhouse and I helped him there before going into the gym with my MH to purr encouragement as her wee legs did all their exercises.

Some of the farmers on my little island are busy working to bring in the hay for the winter and when I sit up on my gate post I can watch then all working and that's what I was doing today when my MH creeped up on me with her camera.

I think I must be the most photographed puss in the en-tire world. Hee hee :))

Deary, dear

All my warm sunny weather has gone away and I have got rain and wind today so I am not very happy as I had my day all planned out and it is not working out the way I want. As you can see from today's picture, I was doing some serious thinking on my bench outside in the sunshine yesterday and I had hoped to do more of the same, but it wasn't to be. Shame :(

I stayed out very late last night and it was just wonderful. I was so happy I didn't even do any hunting. I just lay in the grass and listened and watched and I was in seventh heaven!

Then today, I decided to stay in my house 'cos it was a bit cool for me, so I just had a wee snooze until I felt like going out. I took my MH into the gym and I helped her do all her exercises. She laughs at me when she is finished 'cos I look as though I am sleeping, but as soon as she takes her earplugs out of her ipod, I jump up and try and catch the ends as she is folding them into her wee case and I like doing that and she calls me a rascal and I like that too.

Then my friend J. came over to help my DH spread some chips on my car park, so that's all the work finished in my garden and it is looking lovely, so we are all very happy.

I hope you are happy too.
