NIGHTMARES (and daymares too!)

2011-05-07T03:09:00.002-05:00

Hi kitties, it's Angel.

Mama doesn't know what to do! Taz is having nightmares and daymares too! Did you ever see the video of the woofie who has nightmares and runs in her sleep until she hits the wall? Taz is a little bit like that. She starts twitching and clawing and then she'll get up and run away and then she wakes up. Mama tries to soothe her sometimes when she is dreaming, but sometimes she just jumps and runs away worser. Sometimes it happens a few times a day!

Why do kitties get nightmares and is there anything we can do about it? How come it's dust alluva suddin like? Anybunny got any suggestions??

luv Angel

DON'T CRY OVER SPILT MILK

2011-04-11T01:44:00.002-05:00

The best kinda milk is spilt milk you know. It's berry speshul. Every night I go to the bathroom with Mama to get tenshuns. I actooly go in there every time Mama goes in and sometimes when it LOOKS like she is going in and sometimes when she's kinda near it and sometimes when she just gets up outta the chair and sometimes when she just moves a little bit acause I like tenshuns and the best place to get it is in the bathroom. I don't know why but it just is. I like bathroom tenshuns the best outta alla tenshuns I gets. But the most special time is at night. No why? Cause at night Mama has to takes her medsinns with milk. If kitties are berry good at it, they can tilt their head and beg Mama for some milk but there's no way for the kitty to get the milk outta the glass once the Mama is drinking it, so Mama figured one day she'd spill some milk onna counter and see if I'd drink it, and well, it's milk so of course I drank it! That's why your not opposed to cry over spilt milk, it's the best kind, its the kind made just for kitties for you to drink up! luv Angel

2010-12-22T22:49:00.002-05:00

Mama says thanks for all the purrs and purrayers. Yes it helps berry much. Things get better berry berry slowly.

There are no more stretches of berry good days or even one berry good day thrown in now and then. They are all purrdy blah and a little bit berry hard to manage, but it gets a little bit better alla time so Mama can see looking back that there are provemints. The biggest thing is she gots NO energeez so she can't do nuffin but she can almost always makes some foods now and she couldn't do that a year ago, so that's good right? And she can sit up more now where afore she hadded to lay in bed a lot, so that's a little bit better. And she don't gets in sommneeuhs much at all anymore, she can finally sleeps much better now that her thyroid isn't so hyper anymore.

So we's trying to fokiss on the good things....

Thanks everybunny!

Luv Angel (and Taz)

MAMA'S STILL DUST A LITTLE BIT SICK

2009-11-02T16:02:00.002-05:00

Mama still gots affection but no more feeber. For a little bit berry short time, we hadda zoo here wiff the frogs and horsies in Mama's froat and then I herded her bommit some yaks inna bafroom when she hadded her feeber berry bad but fank God she didn't get no pigs that flew acause we likes hassing a zoo but the pigs that flew aren't allowed at our place. Mama tooked alla her Auntie Bionics but her affection is still here and now daddy gotted it too so she's seeing her docker on Weddings day that is in two days. Last week was berry berry sad for Daddy and for Mama too acause Daddy's Auntie Ballerie (thats spelled V*A*L) gotted sick wiff Lou Keemia and she wented to heaben last Sunday so they wented to say goodbye to her on Fursday. Auntie Ballerie is Papa's sister and Papa is Daddy's Daddy ascept dust the kids call him Papa, Mama and Daddy call him Dad and are you confused yet acause I am.

All I know is this Lou Keemia guy is a berry bad person and he maded alotta peeples berry sad this week.

In udder news, Mama sleeped free times this week! I mean, she sleeped ebery night but free of those nights she sleeped berry berry berry good like elebenty owers I fink! elebenty is berry good! Specially sints when she was berry sick, she could hardly sleep, she dust rested alla time. angul says hi bye lub taz

MAMA GOTS AFFECTION AND A FEEBER

2009-10-13T19:01:00.002-05:00

Mama gots affection and a feeber. She wented to the docker today and they aren't gonna steel any bludds until next week when she does a follow-up wiff the docker acause she gots affection and a feeber, that means that her tempritcher is too hi and her body is fulled up of affection but don't worry cause some of it got on the docker, so she don't got as much anymore, the docker stoled summa that instead of the other kind of bludds. Mama gets sum kinds of affection called staffs and then she breaks out into ~~barnickles~~ carbunkills I fink they is called but this time they dint go away on their own and the docker gotted some of the gunk and is taking it to the bampire lab peeples to test it and she got Auntie Bionics for to swallow for about 10 or 19 or 57 days until she's all better. Next week she'll give them bludds and we can see what her fryoid fingie is doing but I gotta go now cause Daddy is back from Donald's place wiff supper bye lub taz

GIBBING FANKS

2009-10-12T08:01:00.002-05:00

It's fanksgibbing day today in the great wite norf. There's some snow outside that falled the udder day but it's raining inside, speshilly on Mama's face...

We got lots to be fankful for. We gots lots of berry nice frends that aminded me n angul that they are out there eben when they are berry quiet. I gots a counter fingie on my bloggie dust rite down there can you see it? and it's got a berry lotta nummers on it, that means a berry lotta peeples come to see us, but we dint know how many camed lately and parintly it's a berry lotta peeples.

We gonna do our berry best to konvints mama that we still wants to blog, eben if we gots to take a brake ebery now and then.

lub taz

Yeah, what she said.

Mama has been berry sick this week and goes to see the docker tomorrow as soon as she's all done being thankful. She'll get her blood numbers done and see if her thyroid got better or worse but Mama says she don't think it's doing too berry good. She's been feeling really sick the past few weeks and going downhill. When her thyroid is berry bad, it can mess with her mind a LOT and she gotted berry sad... :O(

Mama spects that her thyroid numbers are bad acause she is berry zosted and her tummy makes rumbly noises alla time even when she's feeding it, it just keeps rumbling and rumbling and I can hear it and it's saying "FEED ME, FEED ME" and that's a berry bad sine cause it could mean her thyroid is hyper again. Now she feels like she gots the flew again and is feeling hot. I'm a little bit berry chilly, so I'm gonna go lay on her so I can steal a bit of her hot away from her.

We aren't gonna has no real live dead turkey for suppers today acause Mama was too sick to go to the store so we're hassing real live dead cow instead and it's berry good and easy for Mama cause she can just throw it in the oven she says, but I think I missed that part cause when she took it out yesterday, it was in a casserole dish, so she must throw berry good that it landed rite in there in the oven!

Thank you to alla friends out there who cared enuff to write to us. We are trying berry hard to hold it together for Mama. It means a lot to all of us, even Prince Daddy, that you guys all care so much. Mama said to say she's not surprised cause peeples who luv kitties are berry caring peeples and you can always count on them, even when you dint relize you had to!

luv Angel

2009-10-11T09:38:00.002-05:00

We wanted to let everybody know that we don't know if we are going to blog anymore. Blogging should be fun and it's stopped being fun.

If we're blogging for everybody else, they don't seem to need it anymore. If we're blogging for us, then WE don't seem to need it anymore.

Wondering if anybody reads our blog anymore dust makes us all feel worser. Sometimes we all feel like we're waiting around for a friend that never shows up.

Maybe we've dust outgrown it.

We needs to take care of our Mama and sometimes this blog dust makes her berry sad.

So we think we are going to say goodbye.

Angel & Taz & the Mama

2009-10-05T04:14:00.004-05:00

We're sorry, it's been a FEW Tuesdays since the last post, but Mama still doesn't really know if the RAI treatment worked or not because her doctor is a ~~dickhead~~ not too talkative kind of person. Okay, Mama could have begged and pleaded to get her test zults acause all he said was "It looks like it might have gotten a little better, but still not good" and Mama spects a few tiny numbers were all that changed and since we are talking about frackshins of a hunnert, that's really not berry much at all. So Mama is dust waiting to talk to ~~a REAL doctor~~ her berry nice jeepie doctor (gennerill practishinner) next week to see if SHE got the zults and if she did then Mama will get them and if not, the jeepie docker will be doing bludd drawls every month for 6 months now and that's when Mama sees the ~~dickhead~~ other doctor again, not until MARCH! Until then, it's monthly checks to see if things change.

Mama has still been berry berry tired and has some berry bad days, but then mixed in them, she gets some energies for making jewelries dust sitting in bed or onna couch. She's made I think 19 pairds of earrings now and a necklace. And she gots piles of udder purrdy beads allover the place (inna box) to make about 12 or 72 more pairds. She says the earrings are easy and she does them semblie line style, whatever that means, so she can do 11 or 27 pairds at a time and it goes quicker. Pretty soon she'll have her webbed site all fulled up!

The medsinns Mama was on while she was waiting for the radiation crap made her berry upset. Acause it maded her ~~FAT~~ put on a berry few little pounds. One day she got all feeded up and said that's IT, I'm going on a DIE-IT!! Thankfully, she hasn't died yet, but give her a few more months like this and she'll way almost nuttin and then maybe she mite die! Don't worry though, she's eating berry berry good and the DIE-IT involves a berry lotta BEEF JERKY which is berry dried up real live dead cow with some AWEsimm spices and stuffs innit. Me and taz BOTH luv beef jerkies berry much, so we likes to help Mama by laying on her to keep her comfy and warm while she's eating it, the closer to her mouth, the better. Mama says fur collers are berry nice to has, speshilly when it starts gettin cold like it is now. Mama gits to eat a berry lot on this DIE-IT but I'm a bit worried acause she eats so much, I think she mighta dust EATED this Dr. Atkins dood.... And yet she's losing wate, go figure!

Um I think that might be alla news. But I'm purrdy sher Taz would think of more acause she's purrdy good at it. But it was MY turn to blog. So there

Luv Angel.

pee ess, Mama finally rote in her bloggie and roted her entire story start to finish or today whichever that is and we'd like you to go reed it if you want rite here

DID IT WORK?

2009-09-06T09:55:00.003-05:00

THE SPOT, A KITTY KONDO AND AND MR. STONE FAIRPEE WHO IS BERRY HOT

2009-07-21T01:47:00.002-05:00

I dust herd Mama and Daddy talk about the spot. Unfortoonittly, it means we gots to go to the kitty kondo place wiff the ladies in pyjamas at the place wiff the yellow roof which we don't really likes too berry much but Mama could really need to go to the spot onnacounta she's a little bit berry sick. Mama's a little bit berry scared to go away acause now she's offa her medsinns for her Grabe's Disseeze onnacounta she's gonna get her fryoid fingie extracuted in dust a little bit berry short time like mebbe 7 sleeps or mebbe 87, it dust depends who is doin the sleeping if it's me or angul or if it's mama and then it could be mebbe only 3 or 5 sleeps onnacounta mama don't sleep too berry good or it could be 87 sleeps onnacounta I sleeps a lot and then wake up and then sleep and then wake up and then sleep and then wake up and then sleep or it could be mebbe only 33 sleeps onnacounta angul sometimes dust sleeps a little bit berry long time and don't wake up 47 or 93 times like I do and you know it's only a few more sleeps til Mama and Daddy got to the spot, I fink mebbe 3 sleeps or mebbe 2, I dust losted counts and last year Mama saw Patty Cure and then she saw her brudder Manny and he tooked care of Mama's hands and then she saw Miss Hodges but this year she's seeing some other dude and his name is Stone Fairpee dust like that Stoned fillips guy on the dateline show on the TB ascept this one's last name is Fairpee and I herded Mama say he is BERRY HOT, so Mama will prolly prolly has a berry good time on that day and she's also seeing someone who is mebbe Stone's sister and her name is Raindrop and she also a Miss Hodge so she gots a berry long name and it is Raindrop Fairpee Miss Hodge and then mebbe they can go to the dribe-in moobie place and see some metal fingies that transpose or transpire or perspire into udder fingies like misheens or peeples and I fink that moobie is called the transposers and Mama will watch it wiff Daddy onnacounta she lubs him berry much, otherwise she prolly wunt watch it too berry much but if you bribe Mama wiff Dutch fried tatoes and unjin rings and hamburgers and hot woofies, she prolly go dust about anywhere wiff you, so she'll watch the perspirers wiff Daddy and then Mebbe Mama will go onna beach and take some new pitchers wiff her brand new flashy box she gotted so she can take pitchers of joolries for her webbed site when she is feeling a little berry better after they extracute her fryoid fingie but Mama ain't doing too berry good now acause her presher in her bludds is sometimes bout 170 ober 103 an her hart beets about 140 times ebery single minnet and that's dust a little bit berry not so good and we don't want Mama's hart to dust ascide to stop beeting, so she gots to be a little bit berry careful and they tole Mama her Grabe's Dizeeze dust might get a little bit berry worser after the radioactib eYe-O-DinE treatment and then it shudd be a littel bit berry dedd like the bugs after RaID kills em and then Mama will be berry good mebbe and can make more joolries and webbed sites on the innerweb fingie and take lotsa pitchers wiff her new flashie box and paint some pitchers wiff water wiff cullers in it or mebbe sum krillicks paint too and now I'm dust a little bit berry tired from telling you all my stories so I's gonna go to bed now lub taz

We're going to the kitty condo! Mama and Daddy are going to the spa and then she'll come home and get radioactive and then when she's all done being radioactive, then we can come home again, so we'll see you then!!! Luv Angel

AND THE BERDICT IS......

2009-05-28T04:24:00.004-05:00

I's sorry, I was apposed to only has about 47 sleeps or maybe 17 or 19, but I hassed one extra one and then forgotted to blog to let you know what's rong wiff Mama after she gotted home from the docker and Mama's got Grabe's Diseese which is what the other docker tole her a little bit berry long time ago when it was falling last year, you know like in Setemmer or Oktober when the leabes fall that's why they calls it fall but now we knows for a-sher that Mama has Grabe's Diseese an if you don't nose what Grabe's diseese is it is the same fingie that Oreo's Mama has and

GRAVE'S disease!!

huh?

GRAVE'S disease I said

I know, GRABE'S diseese I SAID

No you dint you said GRABE'S disease, not GRAVE'S disease!!

But it's the same fing rite?

yeah you dust said it wrong!

But Grabe's Diseese means Mama's fryoid fingie is berry hyper like a sticky person who eats too much shugger and so they gots to murderize it wiff TBactibe EyE oH DieN until it's dead like how RAID kills bugs and then gib Mama Sin Froid for the resta her life, but the fingie you said, what is it?

It's the same thing!

SEE! TOLE you so!

sheesh!

And then so when they gibs Mama the TBactib EyE oH DieN

Not TV active Iodine, RADIOactive Iodine!

oops

so then when they gibs Mama the radioactib EyE oH DieN it could prolly prolly murderize her fryoid fingie ascept nobody will go to prizzin for murderizing it acause that's how to make Mama better but that dust sounds a little bit berry crazy acause then she won't be hyPER actib fryoid fingie anymore, she'll be HY POE actib fryoid fingie and don't ask me what the differints is acause either way the fryoid fingie don't works no more but the docker says he gonna make Mama feels all better and that's dust about time acause Mama is dust a little bit berry cited to make joolries again and paint pitchers and take pitchers wiff the flashie box and bild webbed sites and eberyfing she misses doing and her eyes leaked dust a little bit tiny much dust acause she was happy she don't has the big sea fingie wiff toomers in her froat so maybe sumtime soon she can paint pitchers again and make purrdy fingies wiff the purrdy gemstones and preshiss medal klay fingies (that's called PMC!) and play wiff fire and kno what? when the fryoid fingie is fixed, Mama could maybe dust be able to sleep again which means we won't be abul to blog at free fordy too in the morning like we are now acause Mama will has the puter off and she be in bed sleepin like she's apposed to so we is looking forward to that acause Mama needs to sleep ebery now and then and then maybe she can do fings in the little bit berry scary dribing monster again and pretty soon mama can take the monster to the redhouse to buy plants for our condo partment balcony and then

greenhouse

you know you really gots to stop rupting me angul how am i posed to tell my story anyhow and then when the plants are on the condo partment balcony maybe the dragons will come back and angul can eats one and then bommit yaks onna floor and our furriends can come to slay dragons wiff us all night long has a sleepober pardy and speeking of sleeping i gots to go to bed now lub taz

and Angel!!!

pee ess guess what Canada runned out of? Radioactive isotopes. Don't ask me what those are, I dust know it's what's gonna make Mama better ascept they are nuclear and our nuclear plant shutted down so now we needs to get radioactive isotopes from the great hot south, but they said it mite just be 6 weeks so that isn't too berry bad acause Mama has been sick a berry long time so 6 weeks is not too long to wait, but if any of the kitties has any radioactive isotopes hanging around, you can maybe give it to your mailman for us k? You can dust send them to: Mama c/o The Great White North

ONE MORE SLEEP

2009-05-26T18:38:00.002-05:00

Only one more sleep!! Tomorrow Mama goes to the doctor to find out what wrong. It's only one more sleep for her but it mite be 7 kitty sleeps for me and maybe 19 or 27 for Taz. She's getting a head start now. It's a little bit berry warm here today, all I can say is it's about time. We actooly had snow sometime this month but it didn't stick around acause I told it not to if it knew what was good for it.

The cold air blowing masheen is making a funny noise though, yelling at Mama a bit so she's gonna call Mr. Sears to come fix it for free if she can ever find the papers with his phone number on it. The cold air masheen in the bedroom works good though. Mama is hassing a hard time laying down though. For a little bit berry long time, her back pain has gotted a little bit better and she dint has to has too many pills, but alla sudden, she can't lay on it and that makes going to bed a little bit berry hard to do. Which makes Mama hot. Even hotter acause her
~~fryoid fingie~~ thyroid tells her what tempritcher to be and it says right now she should be a little bit berry boiling hot even though it is a little bit berry rong. But maybe tomorrow Mama can has that fixed. So Mama is going to go to bed to hurt or to the livingroom to sweat, one or the other, but prolly prolly not both. taz says hi luv angel

BAMPIRE BLUDD SUCKERS STOLED MAMA'S BLUDD TODAY

2009-05-20T10:12:00.004-05:00

MAMA IS BERRY SICK

2009-05-12T13:08:00.004-05:00

Sorry we disappeared. Mama is berry sick and gibbed up on the bloggie for a while.

Mama went to the merginssy room a coupla times but the last time Daddy hadded to call a ambleeints. Mama falled asleep and hadded acid reflucks and it burned her lungs and she couldn't breethe. When she was there, finillie a docker tested her fryoid fingie and Mama says her TSH went MIA, tho I don't quite know what that means. Mama says to say it means her fryoid fingie is killing her.

She gotted hart pippletations and she gots tickercardzeea which he hadded a berry long time, but now it means her hart beats a berry berry fast way Mama says as much as 180 beets per minnet which is berry berry bad, specially cause the pippletations means her heart is beeting outta her chest hard, but I been looking and so far I hasn't seen it pop out, but I gots to be careful, dust in case.

Mama's fryoid fingie tells her body was tempritcher she should be and it's telling her she should be berry berry hot right now, so right now she is 100 or so but yesturday she was 101 and the day before that 99.5, so it bounces round like a rubber ball. Daddy gibbed Mama his allergies but when she gotted them, it made her berry sick so she's been in bed for free days now and I go to keep her cumpnies acause she is berry warm and snuggly and when she isn't, then she has pillows that go in the nukerwave oven and then THEY are berry warm so I sneak in and lay on them when her footies move a bit and then I shares it wiff her.

Mama says the fryoid fingie also tells her she better not go to sleep eber eber again, so if they can fix the fryoid fingie, then she can finally sleep some we finks.

Mama's bludd presshers is berry berry high eben though she takes dubble one pill and added a new one and then added a new one and then dubbled that too. Her bludd pressure gotted to 196 ober 126 the other day and her pulse fingie was 144 just from getting outta bed. So she hadded to eben dubble the pills again.

But Mama says to tell you that she don't hab that idiot docker no more. Dust afore she gotted berry berry sick, her back still hurtied a lotta times and she wented to see him like usuil but this time he said no more pills and he dint eben gib her any notice and she was in a berry lotta pain and he refused to gib her anyfing that would work proper acause she cant take no aunty flamitrees who eber she is acause they don't work so gudd wiff her udder prollems and so she said you aren't gonna treat me then? And then she fired him. Dust right there onna spot. Only then Mama gotted sick and had a flew wiff tempritcher that was 102 and she hadded no docker yet so Daddy tooked her back to him and you know what he did? He walked in the room and walked right back out and said he wouldn't treat her at all. Daddy chased him down and tole him she needs her bludd pressure medsinns and the stoopid docker writed them but he's a idiot.

When Mama was in the mergincy room afore, she meeted a new docker who was berry berry nice, he checked out Mama's back and gabe her the pills and did a See Tee Scan and tole her bout a docker who dust started here and she dust got outta school and he was her teacher for a berry little bit and he wanted her to see Mama so he rited a letter for her and Mama took it to her, but unfortoonittly, the docker hassn't read the letter yet and that's berry bad, but Mama and Daddy gots pointmints for July which is still a berry long time away and Mama needs a docker berry berry bad, but her indocricktollyist is sending lots and lotsa papers to them so maybe they will finally meets Mama and then she has a docker again.

Daddy is a little bit berry scared too acause Mama gots to has a radioactive iyidine test but that's not why he's scared, he's scared acause the wait list for the test is three monfs but the indocricktollyist tole her that they put a rush on it so she can mebbe hear in a monf or so... but that's still not why Daddy is ascared. Daddy is ascared acause Mama got the call in 23 hours, that's why he's scared. He finks mebbe it dust mite be berry berry bad.

Mama tries to be berry berry careful acause she bended ober to pick up my toy mousie to frow it to me one day and her heart beated 170 times in a minnet, so she can't do berry berry much anymore acause she finks her ticker might stop ticking, so she's being berry berry good. the stairs are berry berry hard acause they make Mama's hart go to fast then she can't breethes and it's purrdy importint to breethes, I fink.

Dust so you know, Mama losted her docker that berry day we rited the last bloggie post. She did go to her Mama's for the artistic retreat but then she gotted berry sick and Daddy camed to get her. Mama has not made any joolries. She dint work wiff no silber and she dint burn her Daddy's grodge down either which is prolly prolly purrdy good news anyhow. All her stuffs is still in the box she took to her Mama's and it is berry berry sad. Mama can't eben paint. She is berry berry tired and she's been watching me rite all this so now I gotta go acause Mama is berry berry tired of watching me rite and she has to help me push buttins to finish this, so I better make sher she goes to bed rite away!

That is our update.

Please pray for our Mama??

ANOTHER UPDATE

2009-03-05T01:35:00.002-05:00

We're so sorry we've been MIA! Mama wasn't doing too berry good and was trying to get lots of rest.

The Grand Re-Opening date for Mama's webbed site came and went, but Mama didn't has any energees to make any jewelries. She's gonna try again soon and will let everybunny know when the webbed site is ready.

Mama maded a bloggie for her jewelries too and you can go see it, but it's not quite done yet, but you can go HERE and wait for it and in a few days, it will show up then you can go read and see what Mama does!

We still has a berry lot of snow but it got berry warm today, only minus six degrees! Oh yes, that is warm for us! Pretty soon the snow will melt more, then we can go on the condo partment balcony again.

Mama is going on what she's calling an "artistic retreat". Actooly, she's going to visit her Mama and Daddy and she's gonna paint and make jewelries and try a new thing called PMC. Mama is being berry brave acause the PMC means she gots to learn to use a torch and Mama is a little bit berry afraid of things that can go BOOM! She's gonna play with fire in her Daddy's grodge and hopefully won't burn it down! Mama will be leaving in just a few days.

Taz is doing berry good, she finally learned how to scratch on some scratchy things instead of Mama's polstered box that her grampa made for her a little bit berry long time ago, I think it was 25 years ago! Mama and Daddy botted a plastic scratchy thing and it has a big thick cardboard bit on it and Taz loves to scratch cardboard! Now when she scratches the polstered box, Mama ignores her and puts headfones on with music berry loud. Taz don't like being nored, so then she goes to pollygize to Mama. But Mama don't reward bad behaveyer, so Taz don't get treats if she scratches something good after she scratches the nice polstered box. But when Taz scratches the scratchy thingies first, she gets treats! She finally learned that's how it works and she'll scratch over and over and over, just so she can get treats! She almost never scratches the polstered box now!

I don't scratch bad things too berry much anymore either acause I already maded a big hole in the carpet, so I'm good now. But cajunilly, I likes to scratch the carpet when the sun is shining on it, because I want to make it bigger and bring it where I want it to be, but it doesn't work. I like laying in the sun, but I dust only get how much the sun gives me, I can't make it bigger! That sucks!

We has two new tenshun thingies now. Daddy has speshul time with Taz every day. He goes outta the condo partment to start the car with his button thingie and Taz goes with him. She gets to go down all the stairs and look at everything through the glass door. Now every day, she's waiting for Daddy at the condo partment door when he's ready to go to work, and sometimes even before he's ready acause she's a little bit berry impayshint sometimes.

My special time, as always, is in the bathroom. Daddy always used to give me goopy-goop™ but sometimes I dust like to jump on the counter for tenshuns even if it isn't for goopy-goop™. Mama dust figgered out that I like to be rubbed on the counter too and then she figured out that I like to be brushed with her hair brush right after she brushes her hair. I like it when she brushes my cheeks and the top of my head and sometimes I lean into the brush SO hard that I almost fall off the counter! I like being brushed! Sometimes I like to give the brush the bitey too, but I gots to be careful to NOT eat Mama's hair!

Okay, I'm done with the update now. Hope everybunny is having a good year so far. We are :O)

Luv Angel & Taz

UPDATES... FINALLY!

2008-12-28T08:13:00.002-05:00

I no we bin gone dust a little bit berry long time... Mama hadded the flew foreber and eber and eber. she hadded it afore Unkle Daryl died, then it went away and then she gotted it after her and Daddy gotted home and on her birfday (she's been walking ober some hills for 2 hole yeers now!) she gotted eben sicker acause she'd been sick for a few daze and Nana and Papa and Daddy's fambly took Mama for supper, but she dust wasn't too berry hungry then she wented home and took her tempitcher and it was kinda high but then she started feeling berry berry sick so she tooked it again and it was a hole degree and a half higher and it was 101. Mama was sick with that flew up til about December 10th or so then she started to feel better and then we had companies and then after that, Mama hadded to make some pretty tansynight joolries for Mama and Daddy's neese acause she was borned in December and they made tansynights a December birfstone and it's purple and I lub it and it tasted like purple too, but dust a little bit berry light purple and then when Mama was all done that, it was December 12th and her neese lubbed the earrings and bracelet berry much and wears them alla time and then Mama and Daddy were dust berry berry busy doing some good stuffs together acause they needs to do stuffs together I fink and they was planning to get away and guess where they is going yup, you gessed it, they are going to the spot again eben though Daddy said he'd neber go in the winter, but Mama and Daddy bofe aren't feeling too berry good and so they figgered if they gotted away for a bit maybe they could feel better and I herded Mama onna fone wiff the peeples at the spot and I herded her ask about a tub that is berry hot and a place for some fires and it has a bed big enough to fit a king too and I herded Mama say some udder fingies about the sweet - I know, that's a nice name for a bedroom at the spot where there is a place for fire and a tub that is hot and a bed big enough for a king, so I like to calls it sweet too... I can't say berry much what Mama said though... I fink something bout bubbles and candles and.......

SHHH!! You'll give away ALL the secrets at one time!!

OOPS! sorry!

I know I said a while ago we'd tell you two things, but when Mama gotted sick and then it was Christmas and everything, we kinda forgot to blog a little bit berry much. Here are the two things!

Mama and Daddy are going to try to buy the luck shree condo partment afterall!
Mama mite has Graves Disease.

Okay, cept only one prollem! They tried to buy the luck shree condo partment but it turned out the bedrooms are a little bit too berry small, you can't fit a bed big enough for a king in it... so the bank gave Mama and Daddy money to do the kitchen instead in our condo partment we gots now and they're gonna put a laundry in so Mama can do the laundry acause its in the basement now so Daddy has to do it. If we had an elevator.... then we wouldn't have to move at all ever! Except it'd still be nice to have the luck shree one with the pool and hot tub... :O( oh well!

And the thingie about Graves Disease? So far, we can only guess! Mama saw the docker and he said he'd call to refer her to the docker she ALREADY sees (IN THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER!!) and she saw him in Settemmer but he's a real meanie.... So a few weeks later Mama called HIS office to see if they sent the referral.... THEY DIDN'T! Meanwhile her thyroid could be dying... HMPH! SO, then she called the regoolar docker's office again and hand held the reseppshunist to fax the thingie and and guess what? Still nothing... So Mama is calling the special docker again to see if they gotted it and if not? Know what? Mama is going to a new docker cause this one been %$#&!%&*# her up enough already.... Oh um, did I say a bad word? OOPS

So, we mite know soon.... hopefully!

WHAT'S UP?

2008-11-07T15:19:00.003-05:00

Other than a very quick post on Hello-ween, me n Taz has not blogged for a while. Mama gotted the flew or sumping and then was dust starting to feel better when she heard that her Unkle was not doing too berry good. He fell asleep one day and didn't wake up for 9 days and then he wented to the bridge. Mama knew when he fell asleep that he would go home to Jesus soon and it was berry berry sad, but it was good too acause he was sick for a berry long time with that big C thingie.

When Mama wented to her Mama and Daddy's house this spring to make joolries and visit her Mama for Mother's Day and her Mama's birthday and her Mama and Daddy's anniversary, she got to see her Unkle when he was happy and smiling and still alot of fun. He would drive in the town and see her Daddy's truck or van at the eating places and he'd stop and sit with them. Mama shared her soop and desserts with him. He was berry berry nice. He camed to see them one day at the house and hugged Mama and said sorry for some things that happinned a little berry long time ago and Mama said it was okay... but she said they kinda didn't even really say nupping, they dust said it with their eyes. And both their eyes leaked a berry little bit.

He dust had berry nice eyes with sparkles in em and even though he sometimes had a hard life a bit like Mama had, he always seemed happy in his eyes. Mama said they were like the Rabian horsie Shaleem's eyes at Nana and Papa's farm, Shaleem's eyes can see right down into your soul Mama says. She said her Unkle Daryl's eyes were like that too. You can see a little of it HERE

So Mama and Daddy went to say goodbye to Unkle Daryl. Sometimes still, Mama gets a great big ole lump in her throat and her eyes start to leak like they are right now. It dust made her not want to be on the puter too berry much and we don't quite know how to turn it on, we usually need her to help us so we can blog.

So acause we's a little bit behind, we'll dust tell you that one story for now but Mama has two more she wants us to tell you, so you has to come back berry soon so you can hear Mama's news. It's not all fer sher news, but they's two great big Maybe newses and they are berry citing.

I gotta go, Taz wants to has a fight so I'm going to growl at her and hiss sum and then we'll play Thundering Herd of Elephants™ all over the couch.

bye!

SOME NEWS

2008-10-15T01:43:00.002-05:00

Mama wanted us to tell you about her docker appointment with the awful-pete-ick sturjin today. We already knew the em are eye was "normal" but Mama couldn't see the docker til today acause he was away. Mama doesn't has a toomer or Em Ess or a stroke or anything like that which is good news, but it means we don't know what's wrong. The only thing we know for sure is that Mama might have a thyroid problem. This docker tole her in July that her TSH level was "quite" low, so today she asked how low is "quite" low. He's right, it's "quite" low. It's berry berry low. It's even berry berry berry berry low. He gave Mama the papers and the paper said Mama's level should be between .4 and 4.6 Mama's is .16 .... so.... she is anywhere between one third and ONE TWENTY NINETH of what it's supposed to be for "normal" rainjes. That doesn't sound too berry good.

But now Mama prolly knows that her hurty back WAS from the car accident her and Daddy had just three months before they gotted married. So now she gots to talk to sherants peoples all over acause the docker said she needs thairpees and stuff.

SO, he said Mama has to go see a endocrinkollyjist....

HUH?

Isn't he the one who started this mess in the first place a YEAR AGO? Mama saw him again in Setemmer and he wasn't too berry nice and Mama don't want to go see him again. The other docker tole Mama that her TSH level was low when THAT docker tested her last year and he dint do nothin about it! So Mama will ask to see another one. Everybody says the thyroid thingie won't be too bad acause it's easy to fix with some pills. And maybe the sherants peoples will pay for Mama to has help to clean and stuff and let her has thairpees again.

So that's where we are at. Right back where we started, ascept now we know for sher that Mama's head and brain are okay even if the rest of her isn't. Now Mama REALLY wants the luck shree condo partment with the pool so she can try to eggzersize and maybe lose some weight so she can feel better and see if mean old Arthur will go away. But for now she's dust doing her best, it's all she can do.

Thanks to everybunny who were praying and thinking of Mama.

Pretty soon Chrissmuss will be coming so Mama has to get busy to make some joolries for to sell for presents. She gotted some berry purrdy beads and I can't wait to play with them!

I can't wait to taste them! they look berry yummy! Eben though they aren't orinje...

MAMA'S TURN!!

2008-09-12T01:07:00.004-05:00

It's Mama's turn to blog tonight so here she is!

taz

The phone call came today! I am so relieved! My MRI is on September 23 at noon CST.

The past few weeks have been very difficult. Lots of pain, exhaustion, headaches...

I noticed a few days ago that, yet again, Angel sensed the worst before I did. She suddenly started showing off two very bald spots on her tummy and legs. She'd been acting odd, getting more hairballs, overgrooming again... Hopefully it will get better now that Mama feels a bit better emotionally!

I've been able to do a little lately, but I'm resting a LOT, watching TV and movies and doing a bit of crocheting, which you've heard about! I loved the snuggle blankies for Angel and Taz so much, I've decided I need one too. I bet you can't guess what color? I bet Grr, Midnight & Cocoa know what color! Okay enough suspense, it's black of course! When I went to get yarn I found several very pretty boa colors, one in a mixed burgundy that will make a very pretty scarf and hat to cover my bad hair days when I need to run downstairs for milk in the winter. We have the equivalent of a 7-11 right outside our back door. They've named them aptly, it really is QUITE convenient! But sometimes I look a little like I got hit by a truck, so a hat would be nice ;O)

I haven't made much jewelry lately but did mail a few pieces a while back.... I included them in an order I received, I thought it would be nice to make someone's entire family happy ;O) Oh, you KNOW who you are ;O) The ladies in my jewelry forum agreed with me that the green ones are our favorite, but well, you KNOW how much I love dark colors too! I'll shows pics below because I don't think the recipient posted them yet, though I could be wrong...

The above earrings are faceted Onyx with Garnets and Bali Silver.

These are Prehnite and sage green New "Jade" wire wrapped with handmade fine silver head pins. The earring chandeliers are Bali silver.

These are nice round Amethyst with juicy little faceted Amethyst rondelles and Bali silver.

Which are YOUR favorite???

I also created a page for what some of us would call an "Angelversary". As a few know, part of my web design is creating online memorial sites... it can be very sad and difficult, but it's helpful in the grief process for the families who request them, AND, it's helped my grief process a LOT too. Sometimes it takes a very long time and we're never REALLY through it, but doing this for others really helped me with a lot of painful issues in my life. This site is for a very sweet girl, a very talented dancer. Her mother has become very close to me. It's not very often I do pages for girls, it seems, so I do enjoy it, even when it is so terribly sad. I hope it helps them.... Have a peek if you wish HERE

I need to call it a night and attempt to get some sleep!

BERRY BERRY HOT

2008-07-17T22:30:00.002-05:00

Sorry we aren't riting in the bloggie, it is berry berry hot here. It isn't too berry hot on the balcony, but it is berry berry hot in the condo partment cause the cold air blowing masheen broked! It stopped blowing. Mama needs it to blow on her. Mama is turning into a elephant! I can't wait til she's all done! I see them on the TB and they looks like berry nice amminals! So far, her legs already turned to elephants! YUP, they are berry berry big, but they are still pink. Daddy makes her lay in bed sometimes. Mama don't like the heat. WE gots a pordibble Cold Air Blowing Masheen in the bedroom, that's how come Mama likes it in there so berry much!

I asked Mama if we could gib a update and she said yes. Angel wants to tell it though so I gots to go call her K?

ANGEL!!!!!! ITS YOUR TURN ON THE THING FOR MAMA'S LAP TO BLOGGIE ON!!!!!!

okay bye lub taz

Hi everybunny!

Ick, it's SO hot in here, I laid on the back of the couch today and I think Mama thought I was DEAD! I was laying there all pathetic and my tongue was hangin out... I played like I was almost dead and was all floppy in her arms when she took me to the bedroom to the cold air blowing machine. All I wanted was a snuggle. If you play all pathetic, the Mama and Daddy will do just about anything for you!! I was just outside looking at the bugs n stuff. There is a ginormous orange moon!

Okay so, Mama wanted to tell everybunny that some things have been happening. Some of them aren't really berry good though. But she got to see a speshylist doctor this week and had x'd rays done. She sees him again next week and maybe we'll hear some good news, maybe not. We just don't know so we can't say for sure. Mama is making plans for going to Alberta still and we'll let you know how it goes. If anything changes, we can tell you on the bloggie as soon as we know.

So this was kinda funny, but kind of scary too. Mama has taken to doing some new kind of cooking lately. She's been mixin up funny drinks in the middle of the night! Really weird stuff too. Oh, and she does it while she is SLEEPING! The other two times a few weeks ago, Mama woked up and said "What the HECK am I doing" am I allowed to say heck?? hmmmm. We don't know yet why it's happening! But we thought it was all over until she did it again the other night and that's when she went to the doctor and got to see a speshylist right away. Unfortunately, there is a long wait for speshylists right now and Mama's best chance for a em are eye is ANY doctor who will give it! The last one was a internetist. I think he does doctoring on the internet or something... weird... but he was the one who "forgot" to even PUT Mama on the list for the em are eye!! I thought doctors had to go to skool for a berry long time and were berry berry smart? He musta left his brains at home.....

So this time, Mama wented to a doctor who looks at bones. I know, that's weird acause the only bone we need to really look at is her head, but he IS Mama's BONE doctor for her berry bad back I think he's called an awful-pete-ick sturjin or something... and so he can prolly prolly sneak her INTO the em are eye ACAUSE she NEEDS to has her back looked at anyhow, you see how that works??? So that's how come she wented for x'd rays. But still.... we don't know how GOOD this doctor is, so we don't KNOW if he'll DO the em are eye even though he TOLE her jeepie doctor that he WOULD, sometimes doctors fibs to peoples I think!

Okay, so a few weeks ago, Mama did funny things while she was sleeping and then again the other night and it seems to happen after she been awake for a berry berry berry berry berry berry berry long time and then finally falls asleep but it only happened three times, twice around the same time a few weeks ago and once dust the other day. It could be the rong medsinns or it could be a toomer. We don't know which is why we needs the em are eye. They all had to do with drinks, so I'll write the ressy pees down for you dust how Mama did it......

Ressy Pee Nummer One

-First, you gets up in the middle of the night berry berry thirsty.
-While you are sleeping, you decide to has some appul joose
-Go to the fridge and pour some appul joose in the glass you don't know where you got it from.
-Take a sip of the appul joose then wake up right away acause it's NOT appul joose.
-Thank God over and over that it was only water and NOT Draino
-When you get up in the morning, take the spice bottle full of curry out of the freezer.
-Stare at it a berry long time and then shake your head so the marbles rattle just a little
-Blame Daddy for putting it in there, but don't tell him so. Cause you don't amember doing it, it's not on the ressy pee above.
-don't tell anyone acause you feel like a tool. Maybe a screw driver, maybe a saw, but a tool.

**For that ressy pee to work out best, when you are all done, lock the Draino away and put bells on the doors and hide the car keys and make sher you wears peajammers to bed in case you decides to do a midnight stroll too.

Ressy Pee Nummber Two

-First, get out of bed in the middle of the night
-While you are still sleeping, go to the kitchen
-Ascide you are berry thirsty so you needs to has a drink (again, must be a good ressy pee)
-Get a glass from somewhere, who knows where, you don't amember cause you are asleep.
-Get a spoon for the drink (I don't know why, for to spoon it up instead of drink it I guess)
- "see" (acause you are ASLEEP, cept somehow, you kinda KNOW????) there are NO spoons
-grab a little salad fork instead
-Now get the cheez whiz out of the fridge. (this actually sounds kinda yummy so far)
-Get a great big gob on your fork
-Wake up and say OH MY GOD WHAT AM I DOING?????
-then be sher to not tell anyone acause you feel like a tool, mabye a hammer, maybe a wrench, but some kinda tool

Ressy Pee nummber three

-Ascide you are thirsty in the middle of the night (I cents a theme here!)
-get out of bed but don't wake up then go to the kitchen for a drink
-get a glass bottle that used to hold the Starbucks Frappucinno you are so addicted to. Try to use one that is clean and sitting on the draining board, they're best.
-Put some water in the bottle. About an inch or so. Maybe from the tap, maybe from the Britta in the fridge, who knows, yer asleep.
-Now grab a spice bottle (again with the spices!! hot ones too.... hmmm)
-GEt the one right at the edge, the Toomrick, it's a pretty orange color.
-Tell yourself (in your sleep, I KNOW! weird hey?) that you don't have to take the lid off, you can turn it to the shaky position and shake it into the glass bottle.
-Be sure to get it all over the counter, afterall, it's brand new and Toomrick stains nice.
-Put the toomrick back on the magnetic hanging spice rack on the fridge.
-Oops, okay, don't put it ON the magnetic hanging spice rack, but be sure it's at least ON the fridge somewhere.
-Don't drink the toomrick soda, leave it there to look pretty til morning (OH GOD, WE HOPE!!!)
-Go to bed but DON'T wake up!
-Be late for an appt. so you skip breffist.
-Come back from the appointment and get a glass for your drink you bot downstairs.
-Notice an interesting looking concocshin on the counter
-mutter under your breath that Daddy is messy and why the heck was he mixing his iced tee drink in a starbucks glass bottle anyhow...
-Grab some ice cubes for your drink you bot at the store downstairs.
-Notice the spice bottle is not where it should be and wonder why the heck Daddy needs toomrick anyhow.
-Stare at the spice bottle, then the drink concoction and realize it looks awfully familiar.
-Say OH MY GOD I DID IT AGAIN
-Call DAddy to ask if he noticed the stuff on the counter.
-GEt ready for Daddy to come get you to see the doctor.
-Amember you are berry berry berry smart, so take a pitcher.

Mama got the toomrick out with kommit

How was YOUR day?????

UPDATE!!

2008-07-09T01:51:00.004-05:00

Hi eberbunny,

Mama gots an update.

Here it is!!

Who ever said "no news is good news" never had to wait for answers about why they still haven't been scheduled for an MRI...

Nearly two weeks ago we learned I was never on the list. Let me go back just a little so you all know what happened.

After learning a few weeks ago that the specialist who was supposed to see me and SUPPOSED to book the MRI had health problems himself, we chose to go ahead with the MRI in Calgary as my GP suggested. On that Thursday, he faxed the referral in and I went to see him on Friday and he gave me the info. He wanted them to be very thorough, but wasn't sure how much it would cost, except that it WOULD be more than the $1000 to $1500 a run of the mill MRI most people get usually costs. When I got home from the doctor's office, I called the MRI clinic and discussed the appointment with the booking assistant. She explained that because of the particular problems I have, they thought it best to do the scan all the way down to the pelvis. I've been having some extreme pain in my spine the past 8 or 9 months, much more than usual. In early 2004, after 4 years of that bone pain (all over) and several specialists, I was finally diagnosed with Arthritis in my spine. I'm only guessing that the additional pain is arthritis as well, since it feels exactly the same as in my spine. This thorough MRI will catch even the slightest changes in bone, cartilage and joints, so it's important to NOT just scan the head to look for a tumor, but to keep going.

Of course we agree. So she explained how it's done and said we had time to decide, in fact on the day OF the MRI, we could let them know if we want to do one section, 5 sections or anything in between.

Knowing this trip is long and expensive (a 10 hour drive or so and I do NOT travel well!) it makes NO sense to only scan one or two sections, we'll only be left wondering if we should have done the rest and another trip there isn't an option when it's so expensive. We're there, we might as well do it all!

When Grr, Midnight and Cocao's Mom emailed me about the kitties wanting to help, I was SO touched! But when I heard the price of the full scan and contrast imaging (dye), there was no way I could EVER expect someone to help to THAT extent! The complete cost of 5 sections plus contrast imaging is $4100!!

Of course when I heard that, I wasn't sure it was even an option for us, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do and my health is pretty important, especially if there is a chance there COULD be a cure after all this...

So I did my best to get down to the bottom of this and was looking for answers as to why the wait was so long, whether or not the province would pay for me to go to Alberta anyhow since the wait was so long and whether or not I might still be ON that list even though the specialist can't do the MRI. Of course the answers were:

-The province will never pay for this sort of thing if one leaves the Province because the service is available here, however long the wait list is.
-The wait list is not ACTUALLY that long, it's only 2 months, not 7
-I was never ON the list
-We're back to square one.

So after learning all that, I got in to my doctor's office the soonest I could, Wed. last week, the first day he was available after the Canada Day holiday.

I don't feel that the appointment went very well, it was very discouraging. I can't say with any certainty that we made any progress and the doctor didn't seem to want to spend much time regarding this. He left the office to see if he could contact another specialist to try to get me in fast, but he wasn't available. After that, the doctor did not return to the examination room, not even after the receptionist told him I needed a prescription yet too. He wrote it and sent it back through her. I'm not sure what happened. I don't know if he was having a bad day or what, but I certainly did NOT feel like I was "heard". I have no clue if the lines of communication were broken within his office, the specialists, the radiology dept. or anything in between. It doesn't seem like I'll get the answers I need and it doesn't really seem like anybody cares. I've called the office again to see if he reached the specialist and he didn't even return my call! So I still know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Is it any wonder I want to ditch this system and go to Alberta??

It's become pretty clear that it's unlikely I can rush this to get any appointment before our MRI date. All I needed to know is that I COULD see a doctor sometime in the next couple months and that he'd book the MRI NOW and see me/do the MRI when he could. As long as I knew it was going to happen, I could sort of trust that it would be okay and we'd cancel the MRI in Calgary. Of course the past week has left me less than optimistic about it.

The only other thing I can think to do is to write a letter to or call another specialist myself and beg for help. But again, I'd need him to RESPOND to me before August 5th!

So, we HAVE decided to go ahead with the MRI in Calgary. Like I said, the appointment is on August 5th at 10:00 a.m. HERE Of course thoughts & prayers are greatly appreciated. If the power of positive thinking can work, let's will the MRI machine and the experts running it to FIND WHAT IS WRONG!

As it stands, we have about 1/3 of the funds needed for the MRI and trip there. Angel and Taz will need to go to the vet and stay at the kitty condo there a few days, plus there is gas (expensive! even more so in the Great White North!), lodging etc. That's pretty much all covered plus a bit more and my husband and I are both working hard this month to make as much as we can and save it for the MRI.

There's a few things I'm working on right now to help with that. But I feel it is VERY important for me to be honest with all those who've offered to help us. While this is NOT the best option and it will make things difficult for us financially for the next little while (a year or so?), we can probably use credit to pay for the rest of the MRI. We're about 99% certain we have this option. So with so many needy kitties and their people out there, I wouldn't feel right accepting outright donations without letting you know what our situation is. However, I WOULD like to try to raise funds MYSELF through things on my website and I will work VERY hard to do what I need to do to make this MRI happen without completely breaking us financially. I do have several projects planned for July & August, so that's a big help. I'll be working very hard to get those done. Some of the other things I'm working on are:

-Jewelry through my site at http://www.prairiesunshine.com/
-Custom jewelry designs - If you want it, I'm pretty sure I can make it! Send a request!
-Custom Blog Templates (I'm still working out the details!)
-kitty art (I have things ready to go ASAP, just have to see if I can still do it!)
-beading supplies (I'm still setting up my etsy shop, but if you need supplies, I likely have them! I'd be willing to sell my complete stock, if it meant I could earn the money myself. I can start again later, a huge sacrifice, but it's worth it for me to try to raise the money myself! If you ARE a beader or KNOW a beader, please point them in my direction??)

A couple things I may work on are:

printed art images (or originals) on magnets
catnip stuffed fishies - they're Angel's favorite toy too, I could whip up 5 or 10 or 50. :O)

I'll see what I can get accomplished in the next few days/week or so.

I think Grr, Midnight and Cocoa's Mom is still considering doing the raffle, it's not completely finalized yet!

Thanks again for all the support, comments, thoughts & prayers, you have no idea how much it means to me!

If you need any info about any of the above, feel free to email me at: prairiesunshine@sasktel.net

I'll do my best to let you know how things are going and I hope our August 7th post will be FILLED with news!!

Pam

UNIBERSAL HELF KARE

2008-07-02T04:37:00.002-05:00

Mama tole us a berry good story bout unibersal helf kare in the Great White Norf and said it mite be gudd if we shared the story wiff our kitty furriends so they can unnerstand what it is like in the Great White Norf... unfortoonittly, I dint unnerstand a werd she said!!! So Angel wants to tell the story instead! Have fun, I'm going to eat my WATERMELON!!!! YAY!!

lub taz

Hi everybunny, it's Angel now, you can tell acause my writing is PINK, Taz likes the aqua blue color...

Here's our story! I'm dust so sorry it's is a little bit berry long, but we like werds as much as Mama does and it is a portint story too! We hope you can read it all, acause there is portint info at the bottom too ...

Once upon a time, there was a berry berry smart man named Tommy Douglas. Know where he lived? Right here in Regina, Skatchywin, Canada, also known as the Great White North! In fact we even gots a big building named after him!

Tommy Douglas was a pollytishinn. I looked him up in wicky-peedya and it said he is Keifer Sutherland's GRANDPA! madgin that!

When Tommy was dust a berry little boy, he gotted sick and there was a docker that helped him get all better for FREE! At first, a lot of pollytishinns dint like his idea for free docker care and the dockers figgered they might not get paid berry good by the guvvermint, so they fought his plan, but in 1962, they finally did it and it was such a berry good idea that in 1964 the whole rest of the Great White North got free docker care too!

I know down in the Big Hot South that some peeples are scared of "socialized medsinns". I know there was a Nonny Miss Kitty left a message on Grr, Midnight and Cocoa's bloggie about maybe "socialized medsinns" won't work acause look what happened to our Mama! But Mama wanted us to tell you that for most peeples, our health care works BERRY good, dust sometimes peeples has a hard time FINDING a good docker and sometimes peeples who are sicky a lot can't find a docker to take care of them the berry berry bestest way and then they fall in some cracks and dust maybe hurt themselves up a little bit more too...

So Mama tole us the story and said maybe we could splain it to all the kitties in the Big Hot South so maybe they won't be too berry scaredy of "socialized Medsinns" too. Here in the Great White North, we call it Universal Health Care.

When Mama lived in BC (that's dust right above Washington State you know!), the health care wasn't FREE, but it was almost free. Mama hadded to pay first $15 a month for health care and then when she moved from there, it was $35 a month. But when she moved to Skatchywinn, the medical care here is FREE!

So let me try to splain why the universal health care hasn't worked too berry good for Mama and some other peeples in the Country.

You see, you don't NEED to be scaredy of it, it IS a berry berry good thing to have! But we think the BIGGEST reason we have troubles here in the Great White North for the past few years is BECAUSE the Big Hot South does NOT have Universal Health Care or "socialized Medsinns". And here is why.... In the Big Hot South, there isn't anybunny to really tell the dockers how much they charges peeples to see them and some dockers in the Great Hot South make a berry berry lotta piles of money papers! We live berry berry close to the Great Hot South. Every year, our nurses get out of school and our dockers get out of school or get off a plane and then instead of working HERE where they wented to school, they get offered a berry berry BERRY good job in the Big Hot South for a great BIG pile of money papers!

If you are a docker from Africa where it is berry berry berry hot, and you get off the plane in Skatchywinn, Great White North, oh say in JANUARY... You'd prolly prolly be ready to leave again berry berry soon, for HALF the money papers Skatchywinn promissed to pay you! Now some peeples LOVE the Great White North when it's great and white, but some peeples hasn't ever SEEN snow before and it can be a berry rude wakening when you gets winter for 3 or 4 or 762 months in a row!!!

So what happinned the berry last few years is that all our dockers are leaving and our nurses too. Every day they has meetings at the hoppsittals here and ascide whether they're going to open their beds or close their beds that day. Mama hearded a berry berry berry BAD story about this berry nice man. He gotted sick really fast with the big C. Only, it was berry early and they caughted it on time, so they went to has surdgries on him. On the day of the surdgry, he wented to the hoppsittal and was laying there waiting his turn when the docker and nurses came in and said "We're sorry, we has to cancel ALL the surdgries today". The man was berry berry berry sad... but he dint have no choices, he couldn't cut himself open, so he went home and waited again. A while later, he got to has his surdgry again. So, he went to the hoppsittal and waited for his surdgry. Then the nurses and docker came in his room and said "Sorry, we had to cancel ALL the surdgries today". So now he was even berry much sadder, but he went home acause he couldn't do anything. He waited for summore time and then a while later, he got to has his surdgry again. So, he went to the hoppsittal and waited for his surdgry. Then the nurses and docker came in his room and said "Sorry, we had to cancel ALL the surdgries today". so now he was even berry much sadder, but he went home acause he couldn't do anything.

Still with me?? So he waited summore time and then it was time for his surdgry again. Ascept this time, he dint go to the hoppsitall alone. he took a lawyer with him! Mama hearded that story on the news and we never heard if he got his surdgry that day or not, but what we did hear on the news was that it didn't matter, acause he waited too long and his cancer was going to make him go to rainbow bridge now...

Unfortinnately, we has hearded quite a berry bit of stories like that and Mama's story ain't too berry great either.

So kitties, if that Hillrey Clingon lady gotted to be prezzidint, she was gonna try to get universal health care for all the peeples in the Big Hot South. Know what this would mean?? Not only would everybunny get FREE health care, but the dockers would still get paid good and has a berry good life, but the guvvermint would help them to run their docker stuff. If that happinned and our dockers made the same amount of money papers as YOUR dockers, then they wouldn't leave the Great White North unless they dust got a great big bite of frost and don't like no snow. But if they like to ski and bild snowmen and Dream of White Chrissmusses, then this is the place for them!

Unfortinnately, right now, our dockers and nurses leave so fast that we has shortages ALL OVER the place. Everything gets berry far behind and then if there is mergincies at the hoppsittal, then those peeples get a MRI and a speshilist docker afore Mama does.

And sometimes, dust like in the rest of the world, dockers make mistakes. They forgit to do some portint stuffs like put Mama on the waiting list for a MRI or listen to her while she's talking to them about how she feels instead of walking out of the room while she's still telling him but he's not listening (that was a berry berry berry BAD docker!!!!)

SO, this is what is going to happen today when Mama goes to the docker. I think for sure there will be stuffs going on acause I'm purrdy sure I heard words like poo-poo and fan when Mama and Daddy were talking about it.

Mama is going to find out WHY she wasn't on the list and who dint do his job and then they are going to INSIST with putting their foots down and EVERYTHING that Mama gets to see a speshylist docker RIGHT AWAY acause she's waited long enough already d&m$#t!! And that docker better schedule a FAST MRI if he knows what's good for him too! Okay, Mama is berry berry berry nice, so maybe it won't quite happen that way, but there might still be some fans and some poo-poos.... So by the end of the week, Mama wants to know FOR SURE what is going on, otherwise they has gots to keep the pointmint in Alberta.

One berry portint part of doing it there is that they want to do a berry berry berry good MRI of Mama so that they can look for EVERYTHING! We hope they will do that here too, but we don't know yet. When Grr, Midnight & Cocoa's lady emailed our Mama, Mama thought the MRI would be about $1500 acause that's what the docker said and he sent two other peeples there and that's what it was. But unfortoonittly, Mama gots to have more pitchers in the MRI machine than they did. Here is what they need to do:

-Scan Mama's head and look for her brain. $770 they could maybe look for the toomer too
-Scan Mama's neck and her spine and bits up to her shoulder blades $770
-Scan Mama's spine and middle from her shoulder blades to her lower bits $770
-Scan Mama's spine from her lower bits to her lumber bits $770
-Scan Mama's spine from her lumber to her pelvitts $770
-Paint Mama's insides with purrdy dye paint and watch the pitchers $250
-Finally figger out what's wrong and help Mama get all better, PRICELESS!

So, that is $4100. THAT is why Mama ascided to try ONE LAST TIME on Friday to see if they cold give her the MRI here in this city instead of in the city with the cowboys and the big tall tower. She said there was no way she could expect peeples to help out with THAT much money papers!

So, Mama spent all day Friday calling peeples and tried to find out if Skatchywinn would pay for it. No matter what reason though, they said they'd never pay for it outside of here acause there was no reason to when we has all the same kwiptmint here too. So Mama said, but the waiting list is so long and the lady she was talking to said she dint think it was, that it was only 2 months long but Mama had already waited SEVEN months! So the lady gave her two nummers to call to find out what was up and that's when she found out she was NEVER on the list!!! And she talked to her docker at LEAST three times about it and he talked to the speshilist MRI docker guy and HE tole her docker THREE times he would give Mama the MRI... but he never even put her on the list!!!

I guess I don't has to tell you how frustrated Mama is! She's dust berry berry berry sore alla time and her back hurts so much now that she can't lay in bed much at all anymore and the last comfittable position don't work no more, and even if it did, now Mama can barely get INTO the bed it hurts so berry much! we don't know WHAT is wrong! And now, when Mama gets a hergrain, her eyes just see fuzzy things and cayjunly, Mama does berry berry berry silly things in the middle of the night! Of course that's dust a little bit berry scaredy for us acause if she has a toomer, it could mean it is getting big and making her see funny and do funny things maybe... so that's why we need to get it done QUICK!

today we will find out how quick we can get it, then if it is still dust too berry far away, then we will go ahead and let Mama has the MRI in Alberta acause Mama and Daddy has to be in Alberta at that time anyhow, so they save $$ papers on a long trip and then they don't has to go again acause Mama is dust a little bit berry tired and can't drive that far too berry good.

The docker and MRI lady said we don't has to ascide right away which $770 bits are going to get MReyed and we can ascide right at the berry last minnet if we want to. So Mama and Daddy are trying to save money papers like crazy and then if we have to, she can still get it done in Alberta and dust do what she can afford in August.

So far, the pointment is August 4 at 10:00 in the morning.

That is the whole story, so everybunny knows what is going on. But in a few berry short hours, Mama will be talking to the docker and she'll let us blog again later today maybe to tell you what the docker said.

Thanks for reading!!!

PEOPLE ARE WONDERFUL!

2008-06-27T17:29:00.002-05:00

Today the kitty Mama gets to write! You people are soooo amazing and wonderful! I never dreamed anybody would ever want to help... It's given me renewed energy for that one last push to do what I need to do in the next month.

I spent the day today using every resource at my fingertips to give one final try to get the MRI here, where it SHOULD be done! It was a frustrating and exhausting day! BUT, I do have news...

Sadly, it appears I completely fell through the cracks in our medical system. I waited for seven months for an MRI only to find out the doctor who was going to do it could no longer see me. Today, I found out not only could he not see me, I was NEVER on the waiting list! I learned the waiting list is only 2 months long. That's not nearly as bad as we thought.

I decided to give it one final push today even though I trusted my doctor had done it all for me. Going by what the specialist told him, we both assumed it was just a matter of time til I got an appointment.

Now it appears there IS one last option. When I learned the cost of the MRI today, I felt I needed to dig a bit deeper and at the very least find out if there was ANY coverage at all for this MRI I waited forever for! There is no way they'll pay for it if I have to go to Alberta, but I also learned that I may not have to wait and may not have to go to Alberta.

It's the long weekend here now, but first thing on Wednesday, I'll try to get some answers. Our one last option is to continue to BEG a specialist to get me in on an emergency appointment and either rush the MRI or at least make SURE I'm on the list! Once we know that, we can decide if we need to go elsewhere. If it appears the wait will still be too long, we will keep the appointment in Alberta, and I'm scheduled for the MRI on August 5th. There are 5 parts to scan and the doctors there feel I need all 5 and I have to agree given the areas to cover where there are symptoms. So I'm glad they're being very thorough. But that does come at quite a price. Should we decide to just have the head/brain scanned though, the cost is actually only $770, practically a bargain LOL!

We'll keep you posted!

I am so thankful for so many people who have showed us how much they care. I'm convinced if we ALL had precious kitties in our lives, this world would be a much better place! You're the nicest people I've EVER met!

Thank You!

Mama planted our garden on our patio at the condo partment! There is so much good stuffs in there! I lub going outside alla time now to sniff stuff and taste stuff and lay in stuff! Mama planted cat mint (that makes me feel funny!!! ha ha) and she planted some regga nose, and some lemmin stage and some pepper mints and eben some CHOCOLATE mint!!! AND, she planted us TWO HOLE planters, great big ones!! Just for us kitties!! There is more cat mint (dust like cat nip we finks) and two types of grasses and some Let Us too! Do you know what Let Us is? That's short for Mama will you let us eat some of them green fingies?? And then she says YES. I lub Let Us!

And she gotted sum udder kinds of sorta spittoonyas called squillion bells and I can't wait for them all to grow up so I can count to see if there really is a squillion of them! I have to practice tho cause I only know how to count to 47 or 93 or maybe 159. If I try berry hard, maybe I can count to 764... So a squillion is a berry lot of bells to count....

She gotted orindje pansies DUST FOR ME!

OH YEAH!!! A BED, Mama gotted me a bed to sleep outside TOO! It's kinda funny, but I likes it berry much. It's black and kinda meshy plastic fingie and it I know it's a bed acause Mama said she got it for bedding plants, but they're all in bed in pots now, so I can sleep in it instead. It's a tray bed, dust the perfect size for me! AND, it matches me berry berry good!! Acause it's black too....

MAMA GOTS A BIG SECRITT - SORRY ITS A BIG LONG PORTINT POST!

2008-04-24T14:50:00.004-05:00

Mama gots a berry big secret and she tole us we couldn't tell nobunny but now she says it's almost time and sumtimes its berry gudd to talk to peeples when you gots a big secritt.

Does you amember dust a little bit of a time ago when Mama wented to the docker to get her head zamminned acause she gotted a lot of hergrains and was dust a little bit berry sick and the docker sent her to see the cats at the hoppsittal to get a scan to see if there was anyfing in her head and they found her brain but nuffin else? Now the docker dust maybee finks the cats dint look hard enough. So instead of the cats scanning her head, now she gots to has a em-are-eye...

Mama saw that other docker a little bit ago amember? He is a ~~entercryptolog~~.... I mean a ...~~ickyprinollly~~.... um no, a ~~ecktotouropullis~~... a die-beat-us docker! When she went to see him for her die-beat-us check-up, he ascided to do summore tests on Mama but dint tell her what for, but Mama is dust a little bit berry smart and she knew what the tests were afore. I dint understand berry much but Mama came home after seeing that docker and looked at the puter and Mamas eyes started to leak a little bit berry much acause she knew what the tests were fore but she dint know eberyfing until she read on the puter.

Mama has dust been a little bit berry sick fore a little bit berry long time but mostly dust since 2001 when she lefted work and went to the Humane Society and dopted Angel. Mama and Daddy said Angel was Mama's fairy-pee pet, but instead, Angel needs fairy-pee! (That means Angel is new-rotick)

So Mama has been sick a little bit berry long time and neber eber went back to work again! For ober 7 HOLE years and about 24 parts and bits of udder years, Mama has gone to a docker after a docker after a docker after a docker, like 17, 92 or 157 dockers!!! Mama says she feels like a pin cushinn! And that's what is almost sorta kinda funny acause now Mama says she might BE A CUSHINN!!! That's what the puter said!! Don't make no sense to me at all, but Mama said the tests she had was to see if she was a cushinn! I mean, I know she's soft and squishie and berry berry comftibble to lay on, but I neber fot she was a cusshin!!

So.... Mama says its good news and bad news. The good news is we fink we finally know what is wrong wiff Mama AND if she gots this fer sher, then there is a 80% chance she can finally be CURED!!!! YAY!!!!!

What, huh? OH! the bad news??? yeah....

Mama could maybe dust have cushinn disease. Cusshin disease is....

a brain toomer!

But a berry nice berry smart lady (we all know her) tole Mama its the bestest kind of brain toomer to has. Acause its on her spitoonaberry gland. rite in her head. but not right ON her brain. Dust berry close by to it.

I fink maybee that is dust why we hassn't blogged so berry much lately. Mama is berry tired and she gets hergrains almost all the time now and sometimes, they makes it so she can't see too berry good and then she don't feel so good and can't eat acause she might.... um, you know....

I fink its dust been berry hard acause Mama has known since afore Chrismuss, but she still can't see a speshilust docker to gibs her a em-are-eye. So yesterday she saw her berry nice regoolar docker and he asked Mama if she still wanted to go anywhere else to get a em-are-eye acause he dust had some payshints go to Albertas great white norf to get em-are-eyes and he tole her she could go in dust a coupla days if she had the money papers to pay for a em-are-eye herself acause the skatchwind great white norf peoples won't gib her money papers to go, so she has to use her BeeZa card insteads. So Mama and Daddy are sabing some money papers and are gonna go to Albertas great white norf to gets a em-are-eye. If there are cats scanning there too, we'll rite to them afore Mama goes and tell them to look berry berry much harder this time acause Mama needs to know for sure.

This Cusshin disease fingie, it sounds dentical to all Mama's sickie feelins so Mama and Daddy and the docker are "pretty sher" this is what it is, but if not, eberybody is hoping the em-are-eye will still show them what IS wrong if it isn't cusshinns. The also say if it is cusshins, Mama has to has a surdge-ree to take the toomer out but after that she won't be a cusshin anymore acause it means she'll lose a lot of her cushinning and she might not eben has die-beat-us anymore and that mean old ugly Arthur will go away too! Almost... acause he already hurt Mama a little bit berry bad so those parts won't be all the way better but maybee HALF WAY!! YAY!! Mama dust gets bare-issed from some sickie fings acause her hair is going away and she can neber neber sleeps and she gets dizzy and says sumfing about cookies and woofies but I don't know what that means acause Mama don't eat cookies and the woofies are across the hall, there's no woofies here... but she says that's a berry hard part and she eats a lot of gravel. HUH? I don't know how eating gravel will make her tummy better maybe Mama should take some nausea medisinns instead....

did you know if you are a cussion and you can't eber eber sleep that after you has the toomer out you can SLEEP again? I dint know that... so see, there is some good news too!

We hope and pray alla time that Mama can go soon to has a em-are-eye and maybe get better so we are berry happy Mama can prolly get better now, we hope!

Mama says to say she is still berry berry happy alla time and that's why they calls her prairiesunshine but eben tho she is berry berry happy, sometime her days can still be hard and the nights sometimes eben harder if she can't sleep acause she has berry lots of pain. But she still does berry berry berry much work at home for herself cause she is her own bossy lady and she makes webbed sites and joolries and art at http://www.prairiesunshine.com/ that's her webbed site.

So, if you wants to, maybee you can dust pray for my Mama too? I know she'd lub that!

Fanks berry much

YIKES!! What she said! Except a lot shorter! And I take breaths!!

The other day, Mama got out the Beat-on-the-little-white-squishy-yummy-smelling-ball-inside-the-white-box-wiff-a-window-by-Blak-n-Dexter™ and it made some berry inneresting noises and some berry yummy smells and I was so innerested in it, I wanted to jump onna counter to see, but I hasn't jumped onna counter in our new condo partment ascept the big island counter where Mama and Daddy gibbs us our breffist and suppers but I don't know why acause its the same tallness but I don't like to jump onna udder counter for some reason, so I only dust jumps onna island counter instead so I dint go look at the Beat-on-the-little-white-squishy-yummy-smelling-ball-inside-the-white-box-wiff-a-window-by-Black-n-Dexter™ eben tho I wanted to and instead I dust wated pashintly for the box to stop beating onna white ball and it smelled so yummy but instead I dust went to has a nap and then I woke up and there was a loaf of bread onna counter.

Angel

The other day, Mama made bread in the Black and Decker™ bread machine except she didn't make it on the deck, she made it on the counter, so I don't know why its called Black and Decker, it should be called White and Counter I guess. I really really really love bread, probably for the butter more than anything. I specially likes it when the Pizza from Houston™ guy brings it to our house. He smells really good. The bread he brings me is in some shiny silver stuff and it gots great big chunks of GARLIC on it!!! YUMMMMM! I knew there was something yummy going on inside that Black and Decker thingie but Taz was so darn scared of it, she ran under the couch and hid all scaredy-cat like. She's such a doofist sometimes! She gets ascared of her own shadow! I know acause when Mama and Daddy make lightie fingies on the walls, she goes nuts! But it's a pretty short trip for her! ha ha ::sniff sniff:: Do I smell bread? butter? mmmmmm gotta go!!

The Mama

The other day I made some bread! I figured I better see if I still know how... I know, I know, we're on a diet! I shouldn't be eating bread! But my hunny's been asking... He can eat a little bread, I'll just have one piece! It won't be so bad... Oh I shouldn't be eating bread! This dieting stuff is SO hard!!!

The Daddy

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM BREAD!!!

You will never be forgotten...

Gregory Allen Hilton
March 22, 1971 - November 28, 1976

You are not forgotten
And never shall you be;
No matter how much time goes by,
You will always be with me.

Though you may not be right by my side,
We're never far apart;
For the memories that I have of you
Remain within my heart.

For far too long we've missed you
While time just ticks away;
And yet I still remember
Like it was yesterday.

The lives that we had always known
Were forever changed that day,
Now there's an empty lonely place inside,
It will always be that way.

We were filled with grief and sorrow;
Our lives broken, torn apart
But God picked up the pieces
Of our shattered broken hearts.

You are not forgotten
And long after this life ends,
You will always be our precious son,
Our brother & our friend

You will always be remembered
And til we join you up above.
May God keep you safely by His side
Wrapped in His arms of love.

© Pam Hilton Harvey

Gregory, it's been 31 years, 115 days...
Time may keep on ticking,
But you will never be forgotten,
We will always love you!

7 WEIRD THINGS

2008-02-05T06:17:00.000-05:00

Sorry I'm so late to do the meme, we hasn't been on the puter berry much. So I'll do my 7 fings now and Angel will do hers under mine.

1 I lub to play fetch

9 I play two diffrint games of fetch, one wiff Daddy and one wiff Mama.

4 When I play fetch wiff Daddy, I bring him a toy mousie. Then he frows it. Then I run ober where he frowed it. Then Daddy comes and fetches the mousie and frows it for me again. Then I run ober where he frowed it again. repeat repeat repeat until Daddy is berry tired.

57 When I play fetch wiff Mama, I bring her a toy mousie. Then she frows it. Then I run ober where she frowed it. Then I lick the mousie so it is nice and gooey. Then I brings it back to Mama and she frows it again. Then I go to where she frowed it again and if the mousie still has a tail, I eat that. Acause it makes for berry inneresting and colorful bits in the litter box. And cause it tastes good. If the mousie don't got anymore tail, then I tries to eat his fevver butt. Sometimes I skin the mousies too. And chew on the furry bits. Oh yeah, then I bring the mousie back to Mama. repeat repeat repeat until I am berry tired. Then I play hide and seek for a berry long time....

89 I like to scratch things. I like to scratch the boxes that are still not unpacked. Once, I scratched right frew the box and started scratching Mama's faveritt books. She wasn't too berry happy. I like to scratch cardboard. I like to scratch the couch. I like to scratch Mama's books that gotted unpacked and are onna shelf so now Mama covered the shelf with a broken box and she taped it onna front of the books JUST FOR ME, so now I gots another scratchy thing.

42 I don't much care for scratching posts

7 I like to taste test eberyfing that Mama and Daddy leave out, but mostly dust the drinky fings. I like diet coke, appul joose, water from a glass, orinje joose, scotch and ice wine.

7 I don't like to drink milk or cream

7 I am not too berry good at counting.

taz

My turn!!

1 I like to taste test all of Mama's food. Berry resintly I have tried Stinky Poor Noodles, Chicken Chowed mean, green beans, smashed tatoes, oatmeal, garlic bread, terry yucky chicken winks and honey garlic chicken winks (I eat all flavors, I love it when the chicken man comes over!)

2 I like to snuggle with Daddy cause he wears sweaters with a zipper at the top and they are berry much fun, also he needs help playing his puter games sometimes, so I come help all the time.

3 I like to do a jim-nast-ick jump onto Mama's little table she uses for her laptop. sometimes when I jump on it, it moves like a surfboard and that is berry much allotta fun. Mama says one of these days, I am going to do that and it will go flying. I think flying sounds like fun, so I'll dust keep doing it!!

4 Sometimes, when Mama and Daddy are berry quiet and they are hiding, I think they went away and I sit in the middle of the condo and cry. Then they come get me and I realize that they weren't gone at all. But it works berry well for getting some berry good tensions and I likes to get tensions, specially when treats and snuggles are involved.

5 sometimes when I'm dust a little bit berry stressed out, I like to eat my own furs. It is specially good in the summer when it is berry hot here.

6 I snore

7 In the middle of the night, when nobody is looking, I like to chase little balled up bits of paper and sneak up on them and pounce them. And when I want to play, I go get the biggest toy mousie I can find and put it in my mouth and then cry berry loud for somebody to wake up and play with me. Angel

Since we are so berry late to play the game, we won't tag anybody acause we're pretty sure they's all done it already. If you haven't done it yet and you are reading this, then TAG YOU'RE IT!!

THE FONE AND TELEMISTAKERS

2007-12-16T17:41:00.000-05:00

Okay I was dust apposed to tell you the story about the fone... It happinned a while ago, but Mama's laptop dint wanna go on the innernet so she couldn't show you the pitcher.

Does you guys gets a lotta calls from them telemistaker peoples? You know, they calls yer house by mistake alla time and bug yer Mama when she's trying to rest and get sleeps or when she has a her grain or a back ache or whateber? We gotted those calls alla time at the old house where we libbed afore we gotted he condo partment. They neber listened to Mama and called back alla time sometimes eben when Daddy was home and sleeping acause they don't care what time they call, dust so long as someone answers the fone!!

Mama gotted calls from one cumpinny firteen times, I don't mean firteen calls, I mean they called ober firteen diffrint time peeryidds! They'd call about free times a day for mebbe 4 or 5 or 19 days. If Mama dint answer the fone, they'd keep tryin. Mama called the cumpinny firteen times to say don't call me eber again, but they dint lissinn!! The last time she tole em she dint want nuffin to do wiff their cumpinny and they said how come and she said cause your telemistakers won't leave me alone and I askeded you TWELVE times to not call me and they tole her they dint have NONE of those calls on file. So she askeded the firteenth time and no what? They actually stopped calling finally.

But, dust to be sure, when we moved from the old house to the condo partment, Mama and Daddy gotted a bran new nummer! They tole the fone cumpinny they dint want their nummer inna fone book either!!!

So we were berry cited to not get ANY MORE TELEMISTAKER CALLS EBER EBER AGAIN!!!!! YAY!!!!

Only, there was dust one prollem!!!!!

Afore we gotted our nummer, sumbunny else had it!!!

They were berry berry berry bad peoples who ascided they wanted to keep their money papers and would neber eber pay another bill again as long as they libbed, and then they moobed. And Mama and Daddy gotted their nummer!!!!!

The peoples that keep callin Mama and Daddy do not beliebe Mama when she says her name is not Carlina Brown, Carlina Lafferty, Carlina Lafferte, Stephen Lafferty or Stephen Lafferte or any ubber names those idiots use to get money papers from peoples. so they keep calling. It makes Mama berry upset cause peoples who call lookin for udder peoples money papers are sometimes berry berry bad peoples who aren't friendly like kitties and their Mamas are!! So they hang up and then call Mama back from another nummer. She keeps blockin nummers and they keep calling, til finally one day I fixed their little red wagon!!!! (that means I did sumfing berry good and made them go away!!)

So...... I killed the fone!!! SEE??

Mama says I'm berry lucky I dint get lectrocuted.... I hate fones. I hate it when they ring, I hate it when Mama talks innit, and I hate it when Daddy is inside it and won't come out when Mama talks to him at work. I dint even KNOW he worked inna fone!! I fot he worked at making papers for peoples....

Only one prollem though..... it still rings!!! Its dust not plugged in anymore. BUT, the telemistakers stopped calling, so I MUSTA fixed it!!!! YAY!!!!

And THAT is the story of the telemistakers and the fone.

A BALL, A CUP AND FOUSANDS OF BERRY SCAREY DRIBING MASHEENS

2007-11-28T03:55:00.000-05:00

It has been berry berry citing here. On Sunday, Daddy and Mama watched somefing on the TB wiff a buncha guys dressed in green playing wiff a ball wiff some guys all dressed in gold and blue. It musta been a berry berry upsetting kinda game wiff a ball acause Daddy screamed lots and lots and on the TB peoples screamed lots and lots and they musta gotten so berry sick from screaming acause they were all green too and summa them wore watermelons on their heads n I dust don't understand that game at all, it seems berry berry confusing. There was all this yelling and screaming and while they were still yelling and screaming on the TB, suddenly we heared all the screaming wasn't dust on the TB, it was outside of our condo partment and then alluvva sudden, there were founsands and hundridds of screaming dribing mashines and they was sayin beeeeep beeeeeep honk honk honk beeeeeeeep and the peoples insidea them was screaming and wavin flags and summa them took their coats and shirts off and were running in the street and that's not so bad if you libs in catifornia or sumfing but here in the great white norf, its berry berry cold already and we gots lotsa snow that falled from the sky and you could freezes your nips off in 13 or 22 or 97 seconds if you aren't careful. but they musta been berry berry upset to be yellin so much and running frew the streets wiff no coats or shirts and carrying flags and dribing berry loud dribing masheens that are saying HONK HONK BEEEEP!

They drobe by our condo partment for hours and hours and hours and it was berry berry noisy and I was berry berry scared so I hided in my hidey cube that Mama gotted me for my birfday when I turned fore I fink, but I could still hear all the yelling and it was berry confusings acause all the people were yelling here acause they watched the green guys playing wiff the ball on the TB right here in our city in Ridge-eye-na skatcheewinn in the great white norf on TBs in these places called bars n pubs but the green guys playing wiff the ball weren't playing wiff it here in Ridge-eye-na skatcheewinn, they was playing wiff the ball in Tronto Tarios in the great white norf but they was screamin so loud ober there that we could hear it alla way ober here and that's dust berry confusing I don't understand how that works at all acause Tronto Tarios in the great white norf is like 18 or 23 or 97 hours away unless you take a ride in the great big flying monster then you can gets there in maybe 29 or 42 or 97 minnets.

I watched on the TB and while the green men were still playing wiff the ball, and eberybody was already screamin then they started talking about a cup and I guess they musta been firsty or sumfing cause it was a berry big cup and I don't know what all the citement is about a cup. I know we gots anudder cup from this guy named Stanley and he is a Lord and this cup we gots is a grey cup so I fink maybe its a cup from a guy named Earl Grey and they must be hassin tea in it acause they are so firsty after playing wiff a ball.

I don't unnerstand what all the citement is about and why they are so mad that they are screaming so far away and we can hear it here and there are green peoples on the TB and green peoples in scary dribing monsters saying BEEP BEEP HONK outside our condo partment in Ridge-eye-na Skatcheewin great white norf and there are peoples wearing watermelons on their heads and alla this fuss is ober some silly ball and a cuppa Earl Grey tea way way far away in Tronto Tario great white norf and not here, but we can hear it here acause they are so loud and why do they eben call the ball that, it doesn't look nuffin like a foot at all and if our green men are called riders, what are they riding? I dint see no horsies... Oh that's rite, they are riding in the scary dribing masheens.... Okay so they are Skatcheewin car riders playing wiff a ball that don't look like a foot, all so they can has some Earl Grey tea and wear watermelons on their heads.......

I fink I get it now!! I fink I unnerstand!!!

Its o-fishell - BEANS ARE WEIRD!!!

lub taz

pee ess from angel, they weren't mad, they were happy acause we won the Grey Cup but I don't really understand feet ball either...

MORE MONSTERS.... AND GUESS WHAT WE SAW??

2007-10-29T04:40:00.000-05:00

That great big scary orange and yellow screaming bilding eating monster FINALLY left.... He ated the hole bilding!! But then know what happinned?? I fink he ated too much bilding!!! He musta bommitted it up acause now, there is new part of a nudder bilding! Those has got to be the strangest monsters I has ever seen in my hole life and I'm fore, so that's a lot of time to see monsters I fink

OH! And guess what WE saw the other day??? NO, guessss..........
.......................... did you guess yet? NO? Try again, I'll wait.......................
..........................
Okay then, I'll tell you. What we saw yesterday, from our condo partment balcony..... was.............................
SNOW!!!!!! And I'm eben dust not lying!! It was great big fluffy snowflakes and they falled and falled and falled for quite a little bit berry long time. But the dint stay onna ground like they're apposed to. They dust turned into little bits of water. So, when snow comes to the Great White Norf, does that means Santy Claws will soon be here? I hope so, acause this being good stuff is getting dust a little bit berry hard to do alla time!

Did you know that - if yer Mama leaves the condo partment balcony door open and you run outside and then the other kitty chases you and you run inside, behind the big black couch and around the couch, then onna top of the couch then back out the door and onna balcony and then inside around the couch, then ober the couch and then take a great big flying leap onto Daddy's tummy while he is sleeping - its almost as good as running 80 foots down the old house through the libbing room, into the dining room through the kitchen, downa stairs, into the wrecked room and back uppa stairs and frew the kitchen into the libbing room again??? And Daddy and Mama love that new bersion of "Thundering Herd of Elephants"™ too, specially Daddy acause he got berry berry cited and eben screamed for joy when we jumped on his belly while he was sleeping. Its a berry fun bersion, you really gots to try it!

okay bye!!

Taz & Angel

IN THE MORNING

2007-10-03T11:51:00.000-05:00

Mama says we are in morning. I said yes we are Mama acause its almost 11:00 a.m. so it is still morning. She said, no that's not what I meant, she said we are sad. So I said, how come we are sad its morning? Do you likes ebening better? Then she started to cry!

You are such a dough head! NOT MORNING.... MOURNING!!

What's the difference?

MORNING is a time of day, the time when Daddy gets up to go to work and MOURNING is when you are berry berry sad acause somebody went to Rainbow Bridge!

OH!! Okay....

Hey wait a minute, why are we in mourning then??

Trixi went to the Bridge...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Who's Trixi??

Trixi is Mama's Mama's woofie... You member, she came to our house afore...

Yeah, I member her now............. I'm berry berry sad now...

I know, me too, I liked Trixi even though she was a woofie... Mama is berry berry sad, cause she dint even know Trixi was berry sick and she dint get to say goodbye... She said Trixi was so smart, the first time she came to visit, she'd never been to our house before but she was SO cited in the car cause she new ZACTLY when they were at our house and she would bark n jump n flip out cause she knew she was gonna see Mama. She always knew when she was gonna see Mama. Now Mama will never see Trixi again, that's dust too berry sad.... Trixi was SO smart too! Mama's Daddy teached her to do lots and lots of tricks. She could roll over and sit and lay down and sing and speak and play dead even. She would sing real loud with Mama's Mama and Daddy and her Daddy even teached Trixi how to say I LOVE YOU! I hearded it once and it sounded pretty good UH RUUUUV ROOOOO. cute..... She loved to play and would bring Mama a great big soggy toy and play tugga war with it..... Now she's at the bridge, its dust too berry sad!

I don't like mourning, I fink I'm gonna go back to bed and sleep til its afternoon so I don't has to be in mourning anymore.

yer silly!

Trixi was a Shitzhu Maltese cross. She was white and very pretty and my Mom always did her hair up in little pony tails and she wore pretty bows. She was such a good woofie. And I'm not a huge fan of woofies, so when one impresses me that much, she must be very special. Trixi developed arthritis. She was on prednisone which nearly doubled her weight. It wasn't good... Just before she went to the bridge, my Mom emailed to say they had my Aunt's woofie for a while and Trixi seemed to be adjusting well and was getting better. So I was really surprised when she wrote to say Trixi was gone... She was in so much pain. I think seeing another woofie in the house probably made my Mom realize how bad off Trixi really was. Stairs were hard, getting on the bed was hard... poor girl...

My Mom and Dad will be here for our Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend. They are bringing someone new.... her name is Muffin (Muffie) cause she looks like a bran muffin, apparently. I cannot wait to meet her. She is a toy poodle. She is nearly 7 weeks old now, I think. She must be tiny. I can't wait to see her. I'm glad my Mom found her so quickly, losing Trixi must have been very hard!

Goodbye sweet Trixi.... I'll miss you!

OH NO!!! MORE MONSTERS!!!

2007-10-02T11:25:00.000-05:00

Mama gots pitchers of Angel's new napping spot. She said to say that she couldn't find Angel all day one day and fot she losted her. She looked EBERYWHERE!! She was starting to get worried, and then, she fot to herself, self, if you were a kitty where would YOU hide?

So, she looked here:

I wonder....

Yup!!

Oh hi, did I fall asleep? *Yawn*

So then I figgered I'd show you MY napping spot.... can you see me? Do I blend in? no? *yawn* I don't care.... I'm tired. I like it here in front of the cold air masheen...

Mama, put the flashy box away, k?

Mama? put it away!

I TOLD her to put it away!
She wouldn't, so..... he he he.

Well, I fink she got my point!!

Taz.... put the flashy box away, I have a hergrain...

Sorry Mama!

I gotta go!!

ARE THEY EMPTY YET?

2007-08-11T03:49:00.000-05:00

We is hassin a berry berry bad storm. Its the kind where Mama stands at the window and looks for them funny clouds. like in the moobie twister

It rained and rained and rained and rained. It came down sideways, then alluvva sudden, it came down straight like the wind ascided to go a diffrint way and that's berry scaredy acause we can only see half the sky, what if them funny clouds are behind us? we wouldn't know we were in Kansas til we saw the woofie Toto. Mama, are the clouds empty yet? Or do they still has more rain innem? Its still rainin. Anubber storm is comin.... free inna row. but the first one dust blew away from us.

There was great big flashies inna sky and they were berry close. Mama was prized we still gots our powers on. Mama's Mama n Daddy's town got a itty bitty flood it rained so hard. The bilt the town on a itty bitty hill so the water can run down the hill to the river and then peoples don't need to learn how to swim acause it won't flood, its dust that for a berry few minnets, you has to let the roads be rivers and waterfalls, dust until it gets to the big river. But Mama's Gram libs right where that TB guy was talkin to his bideo camra and she knows Gram prolly gots a pool now. a good one too acause it will have a kitchen in it and eberyfing! Mama and Daddy are glad they sold the house now. It really barely eber leaked much from that crack inna wall, but this is the year its ascided to leak more dust acause Mama and Daddy were sellin the house and it was Spring so all them peoples got to worry about us makin a pool too... but she hopes there is no pool there now for the new girl who botted it. acause that would be bad.

she painted our basement orinje. I lub orinje, its berry yummy. Mama's ring is orinje. I try to eat it. I need to know if it tastes like orinje and that's why the color orinje is called orinje or if dust looks orinje and they named some fruit after a color... I can't tell which it is, so I always gots to try to eat orinje fingies. Specially Mama's ring acause its so purrdy and sparkly and daddy botted it for Mama's birfday and its the stone that is like my name.... potaz? I fink... its orinje. it looks yummy.

I fink I gotted hungry

HOW TO GET YER MAMA TO GIVE YOU A BUFFATE IN FREE EASY STEPS

2007-08-10T04:33:00.000-05:00

Step One:

Berry suddenly, ascide you don't like Stinky Goodness Cod Shrimp and Sole feast and act as though you are starving but this stuff makes you want to puke.... Shake your paw as though it disgusts you and take three steps back

Step Two:

Look up at Mama wiff those sad eyes that say "I am a poor itty bitty kitty who hasn't got nuffin to eats in 13 or 21 or 79 days and I am starvin!! OH OH... there goes my tummy now! Please feed me, I don't like this stuff, I wants toona!!" Be sure to ask on the day yer Mama runned outta toona, do NOT forgit this berry portint step! Yer Mama will then open a can of Stinky Goodness Sammin flaver acause the last time you got fussy, You LOVED this stuff!

Step Three:

When she has added a nice pile of Stinky Goodness Sammin flaver, do one of those good gags you do when you gets a icky dragon cot in her throat and take three steps back. Look up at Mama like you can't believe she actually gave you that crap and insist on TUNA..... NOW. Wait while Mama goes to the store, you absolutely HAS to avoid eating any of the food, its BERRY important or you won't get buffate, you HAS to be good. When Mama has returned, meet her at the door with those sad starving eyes again and she will open the tuna twice as fast. When there is tuna on your plate, then and only then can you begin to buffeat. You must avoid the sammin and cod, shrimp and sole at ANY cost....until Mama has left.

Then scarf it all down like you have not eaten in 13, 22 or 99 days.

If you are BERRY lucky, when Mama cleans your plate in the morning, she won't notice you actually ate everything and she doesn't even need to wash the plate its so clean, and you can repeat the above three steps again!!

We dust KNOW this is gonna work!! You try it too and let us know!

Have fun buffeating!!!

yeah, has fun!!!! Angel.... You are SO smart!!

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

2007-08-10T04:19:00.000-05:00

DAYMARE

2007-08-08T17:34:00.000-05:00

Today I dust had a nightmare, ascept it was during the day so it was a daymare. I musta been bad or something, cause I dreamed I was in this berry berry hot place, you know, that one that starts with h and ends in ell that I'm not apposed to say? Oh it was so hot... then I woke up and moved to the shade. Dang! its HOT out there! Mama, are you SURE we don't live in the desert? Wait.... is that a camel?? hey Taz come here... I think I see a camel!! And stars.... a camel with stars.... so many stars.......

MAMA! Angel falled over! I fink she fainted or sumfing!

I don't see no camels..... what's a camel?? sounds yummy.....

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

2007-08-08T03:31:00.000-05:00

MMMMMMMMM.... grasshoppers are berry yummy!!

MORE DIRT

2007-08-06T04:22:00.000-05:00

Mama bought more dirt from that Wally's guys big store. She tried to buy a patio set too but they are hard to find even though there is still at least 35, 78 or 97 days left in summer.

So 'staid, they bought tainers. They gots red lids. They say rubber maid, but I don't think the maid part gets here yet, maybe she'll come tomorrow. And none too soon acause this place could use a maid purrdy bad. I's been purposely droppin hunks of my furs on the floor just so Mama has something to clean acause she must get berry bored in a condo partment all by herself when Daddy goes to work to make papers.

Like Taz said afore, Mama boughted a top for her lap and it has pitchers in it. Its a berry nice top for her lap acause she can take it outside and rite in her lap while she lays around smellin flowers and stuffs. We gots lotsa flowers. And Mama will finish plantin the grasses with the dirt she bought. I still say she shoulda gone to the outside somewhere and just dug up some dirt, but beans are half wits at the best of times, so they pay for dirt. They even sometimes pay for air! Like the cold air that comes from our special machine. And some peoples buy air so they can breath better and the air comes from a tube in a bottle, kinda like a ginormous drink with a straw. I figger it must be purrdy good air for them. Mama says just wait and see, next they'll put tacks on the air too. I figgered that might be kinda dangerous. When tacks come flyin outta our cold air machine, I dust think we better hide fast.

Mama can watch movies in her lap now too. She gots to catch up on some acause they have other ones in the movie showing place she wants to see, but she's gots to see the others first. One set of movies is about dying. I guess the guy in the first one dies hard. Maybe he felled and broke some stuff, I dunno. But then somehow, he made it in the next movie, but he's got no luck acause then he died even harder! He must be a cat acause he gotted one more life and this time he was mad and died harder with vengince but I really don't know what that means. i just figger if you gotta go to a movie where a guy has already died three times, it might be a kinda gross movie, dontcha think?

The other ones she's never seen at all and I think its about a guy being born and getting an identity then I guess he gets purrdy good after that acause he gets supreme.... So Mama might lay in bed or on the balcony with the top on her lap and watch some moovies.

Mama and Daddy were gonna go to a thing called a fair and it was called Buffalo Days and I've heard about them buffalos and I think they are a berry little bit like vishus deer cept bigger and for a while they really stinked and Mama says that meant they were almost all gone. But they must not have stinked too bad acause they are back now and they were at this fair place I guess acause if yer gonna has a thing called Buffalo Days, there should prolly be some Buffaloes at it, dontcha think? Okay so Mama got her sum-knee-ahs again and when she finally falled asleep, she sleeped for a hole 6 hours in a row without waking up at all! I know acause me n Taz tried to wake her up, but she dint move none. She slept all through the fair, so they dint get to go so I guess now they gots to call it unfair. But Daddy said it was too hot to be walking around a fair today and Mama woulda gotted sick and with all the Buffalos there in this heat, they prolly woulda stinked again too and then there'd be no more and that's not good.

So, today was the unfair but that's okay cause they wented to Boston for some pizza instead but I don't know how they got there and back so quick acause I checked and I think Boston is at least 57 miles away, but it could be 147, 941 or even 1493 miles away and I don't know nobody who could go there and back that quick. Unless they finally figgered out that trick from that Star Trick show.

And then after that, they went to this guy Roger's place and boughted some Deevie Dees. They like watching movies partly acause Mama used to be in charge of a movie place where you goes to sit inna chair with junk food and watch a moovie on a gigantic screen with sound loud enough to hear at the other end of the city. Mama was the mannidger and it was her berry faveritt job ever in her hole life. Sounds like a fun job. She gotted to sell candy, make popcorn, fix drinks, take people's paper monies and order all the stuffs they needed to have for a moovie place. She says the popcorn was the berry best she'd ever tasted ascept when she lived in Bee Sea as a girl and they wented to this guy Stanley's Park and by the choochoo train they always had a great big cart with popcorn and Mama says the popcorn at her movie place tasted just like that stuff. She don't get enough popcorn now acause we gots a purrdy big nuking machine and she boughted this Awful Rednbitter guy's popcorn and every bag burnt to a crisp and made smoke and black popcorn, so it wasn't berry tasty at all. No matter how berry little time she cooked and no matter how hot or cold the nuking machine was, this Awful guy's popcorn burnt berry bad. So she gonna try another kind.

Okay I gotta go now afore Mama finds out I sneaked on the puter and went on the bloggies. I was gonna help her and buy some rocks and stuff for her joolries but I couldn't find her Veeza card. Maybe next time.

DEAR TAZ

2007-08-02T03:18:00.000-05:00

Dear Taz

I'll go shopping soon, I promise. But you are making Mama confused. Last month, the only Stinky Goodness you'd eat was Cod Shrimp & Sole feast. Then the ladies in pajamas told Mama to feed Angel more Stinky Goodness so I bought her some Salmon in slices with gravy and some Tuna slices in gravy and you loved both of them and surprised me because you'd never touch any other flavor but Cod, Shrimp and Sole. Then all of a sudden, you wouldn't even touch the Cod, Shrimp and Sole and even shook your paw at me for putting something so disgusting in front of you!

Now all of a sudden you won't even TOUCH the salmon even after begging for it, so of course we ran out of tuna! Mama didn't buy enough because I didn't know you'd be this fussy!

So now, Angel ate three helpings of food because I gave her enough Salmon for both of you and then you wouldn't eat it! So then I gave you Cod Shrimp & Sole and to my surprise, you scarfed it down like you'd been living on the streets for a month! So I gave you a bit more... then of COURSE Angel wanted some! So I gave HER some. Then you left the rest of yours and she cleaned up both plates! Somebody in this house is going to get FAT! And its NOT me & Daddy!

I don't know what to feed you anymore! This isn't a buffet restaurant... When did you get so picky!

Luv Mama

MAMA, DOES WE LIVE IN A DESERT??

2007-07-23T23:58:00.000-05:00

i think the jungle Mama is planting for us might not make it. Mama said she mebbe should have bought plants sootable for the desert instead. For the past few days, its been berry hot here, over 40 degrees in the great white north temperature. Mama says that's like 110 in the great hot south temperature. Its so dry and hot its baking all our plants without even needing an oven!

Mama is so hot and icky even with air conditioning that she gotted her grains again.

yeah.... she gotted hergrains!!! She eben bommitted all ober.... Mama scareded me!!!

Daddy tooked her to the docker though, a new guy acause he's the one who was open around here after alla the other dockers go home. This guy was purrdy good Mama said. He wants to do tests and send her to a docker that all the other dockers she's seen never sent her too even though they should have for lotsa lotsa times. This docker says Mama's shugger die-beat-us is mebbe type one, not type two and that's kinda what Mama allways thought but no other dockers ever listen to Mama and instead she is sick from shugger alla time. So mebbe this docker will be real good... can you magine hassin shugger die-beat-us for like 13 or 15 or 47 years without EVER going to see a shugger docker? What kinda crazy IS that? Finally this docker wants to send her to a ...... indo... endocrypt.... hmmmmm endorseskin.... a hormone docker! What Mama? endo... krin.... olly.... jist! Okay endokrinollyjist. That's the guy! Thanks Mama!

yeah fanks Mama!! Is it my turn yet?

Your turn for what??

to write a bloggie!

What you gots to write about I dint already say!

You forgotted one fing!

What did I forget?
I'm not tellin! I want to bloggie it!!

Okay, you'll get yer turn in a minnet!

Okay Taz's turn, bye kitties! Stay cool, its berry berry hot out there! but we gots air in our condo partment, you know, cold air. Comes right out of machine. Neat.

Okay my turn!!!!

I got sumfing berry citing to bloggie about!!!

I snucked a peek at sumfing Mama brotted home from their hollydays at the spot. It was in a nice plastic bag, the kind that make nice noises. I asked Mama what it was and she said neber you mind, its a prize!!

But I sneaked a peek anyhow. It looked funny and I dint know what it was. What is it Mama I asked.... Oh all rite, she said, Mama is makin you sumfing! What are you making Mama I said and she said it was a prize. But what is that funny stuff I askded Mama and she said... get this kitties, it AMAZIN!!! Know what was in the bag?????

SNAKES!!!!! YEAH!!!!! BOA STRICTER SNAKES!!! There was two kinds, there was fluffy pink boas and pretty blue boas wiff diffrent colors of blues.... Mama said the pink snakes are for me and the blue ones for Angel and then I aske......

You does realise you are a nit wit rite?

huh?

they're not BOA STRICTER SNAKES!!!

they're not???

They're BOAs

well that's what I said!

no, you dint, you said boa stricters

what's the diffrence?

BOA STRICTERS are snakes, BOAS are like feathery things that are long and

kinda like snakes

well, yeah okay, but not all gross and stuff like snakes, they aren't all scaly and stinky like snakes....

oh they are soft and fluffly

yeah, like feathers!!

ooooo like febbers! I lub febbers!!

so you don't want nuthin made with snakes no more?

oh no, febbers sound MUCH nicer!!

its not really made of feathers though, its a yarn that looks like those boa things that are like feathers.

oh... but it sounds purrdy.

It is, I snucked a peek and saw yours, its a berry bright pink and its all soft and fluffly. Mama ascided to make them when they were at the spot on baycayshun acause she missed us so much, but since they gotted home and we moved to the condo partment, she hasn't gotted any time to crow shay stuffs.

oh, that's too bad, plus she gotted hergrains so you can't crow shay stuffs when yer bommiting. That wouldn't be good....

no not berry good.

um, okay so, gess what kitties? Mama is making us fluffy blankets, they is called afrighans and they is made out of boa yarns and mine is pink and fluffy and it don't got no snakes in it.

THE JUNGLE

2007-07-17T22:57:00.001-05:00

Mama is making us a jungle!

The other day she brought home a whole bunch of diffrint grasses. And a bag of dirt. How silly are beans? You don't has to BUY dirt, you take a shovel and get it right from the ground!!! Anyhow, then she watered all the grasses. I promptly sat and ate my fill. Daddy wasn't too impressed. Oh not at me eating the grass, he didn't like that I yakked it up all over Mama's favorite sweater and a pillow from bed. I say hey, put yer stuff away and I won't yak on it!

So anyhow, she's been watering those grasses. She checked on the puter to make sure there weren't any poisonous ones. She got tall ones and short ones and green ones and ones with funny things at the top and some with kind of fuzzy things and even a reddish one, there are also two that are berry berry tiny grasses all in a big bushy plant and they hang down like they are berry tired or something.

She still has to plant them in the dirt. But now I see why she didn't plant them.

Today she came home with more!

They're flowers!

Pink flowers and red flowers and purple flowers and some with names I can't even read let alone pronounce. And she bought planters she says are supposed to go on the rail on our balcony! So they'll give us some shade and some stuff to look at and then I tole Mama yeah and some stuff to eat and play with, but I don't think she hearded me. She says they're called..... pitt..... spittoon spittoon-ya? something like that.

And she got some erbs too. Don't know what them are. They're green and smell kinda funny. Mama says they are mint erbs but Daddy says they smell like weeds. But Daddy loves mint tea, so Mama thought she'd grow some.

She gotted some plants that are purrdy but prolly don't grow flowers. The other day she gotted some green and red ones, but they aren't for Chrissmuss, they're for the summer. They're called Co-lee-yuss. Mama used to work at a nursery but not the kind with babies, the kind with baby plants I guess. Used to work in a green house, but then she says they aren't green and then I asked her what color they are if they're not green.... well it was a bit of a confusing conversation so I just sort of walked away. i think she got the message loud and clear though.

Victor is right,
Beans
are
weird

Angel! What am those fingies up there!
up where??
Up there in the sky! They weren't there a little while ago! Where'd they come from??
OH! Those are stars!! I heard about them afore on Mama and Daddy's programs on Nashnell Gee-o-graffics channel!
they are berry pretty! I hasn't eber seen those afore!
me either! Isn't it good that we can see them now? I never thought a condo partment would be so much fun... and if this ISN'T the luck-shree kind, magine how THAT one will be when we buy one!
woweee that will be nice. You think there are stars at that condo partment too?
yeah! I think they were here all along, we dust never looked afore!
that's acause we were neber allowed outside at night afore!
yeah, isn't it nice?
berry berry nice. I like libing in a condo partment, I'm berry glad we moobed!!
yeah, me too, that other place... it kinda smelled funny!
gee, I wunder why Angel?
beats me!

I really don't want to jinx things by saying this, but Angel is SO much better since we've moved! No more grouchiness and crying at the door, no more inappropriate potty use, no more scratching in inappropriate places... no more smelly carpets! She's been SO good and its obvious how happy they both are. They are so impressed at being able to waltz outside anytime they feel like it, as long as the patio door is open. They'll just sit there for hours watching people, looking at the sky, chasing bugs & stuff... Makes my heart happy! Angel doesn't seem anywhere NEAR as nervous or neurotic, in fact, her hair has almost completely grown back! For the first time in several years, we will soon be seeing the patch of white fur she has on her tummy! Amazing... no more poodle do for her!

I know you always get scared when there are fireworks and if you don't have a bed to hide under, it must be berry bad for you!
Daddy and I can't come home right now though... its berry late now. If it makes you feel better, we had the same things here. They are berry pretty and one day when you aren't so scared of them, you can watch them and see how much fun they are too...

Daddy & I had a berry good day. Today was the day that the flea market was at the drive-in movie. Daddy and I bought some nice things there, some crystal and glass. It was berry berry hot though so we couldn't stay long. We went to have a cold drink and ice cream after and sat in the car cooling off. Daddy had the kitty ice cream, Tiger Tiger. It made him berry happy!

Now you go snuggle up with Angel and you'll feel a lot better and pretty soon, we'll be home and we'll move into the new condo partment.

Daddy and I luv you berry much. We'll see you soon!

Luv Mama & Daddy

Mama writes::
Deer Angul n Taz

Its getting late, I hope you are in bed by now....

OOOPPS!!! No Mama, we aren't!!!

....Daddy and I are dust gettin ready for bed and we are gonna watch a TV show for a while. We had a berry berry fun day. Today is Wednesday and today is the day that our little house gets solded 'fishilly to the lady from Daddy's work where he makes papers. You member she camed to bisit you twice at the house and then she botted the house from us. It was only a ackidense that we finded out that she worked right in Daddy's work too, only she doesn't makes paper, she dust helps put things on them. She sells classy-fried adds.....

what are them??

Fluffy:: I dunno, but they sounds kinda yummy... are they like fried eggs???

Maybe!! .... anyhow.....

....She sells classy-fried adds to peoples when they wants to sell things then other peoples puts them on the papers. Then when the big trucks come, Daddy puts the papers onna truck to take to our house and that's how come we always gots so many papers at our house.....
Anyhow, its kinda sad day for me n Daddy acause his fambly owned the house for almost 80 years, since it was first bilt, but the fambly knew we couldn't take care of it anymore and that Mama was sick and needed to rest inna luck-shree condo partment ascept we couldn't find a luck-shree one with a pool, so we just bought one without until we can get in the one with a pool....

only not the kind wiff holes and balls, but the kind wiff waters in it!! To swim in!!

Fluffy:: You're SO smart Taz!

fanks fluffy!!

Fluffy:: yer welcome!

Okay you two, can I finish??

yeah!

....So today the house is offishully that lady's now and she really seems cited so we are glad she is happy and we'll be happy when we can gets home to our condo partment too....
So today we hadded a good breakfisst at the dining room in the hoe-tell and we meeted a berry nice lady named Heather and she was our waitriss....

What's a waitriss??

I think she waits for Mama and Daddy to eat

what's she wait for??

Prolly the paper monies I think

OH! That would make sense!

....Then a bit later Daddy wented inna pool for a swim and I wented into the spot beside the mimmeral pool and got Patty Cure to fix my toesies and footies acause I was standing on em for 6 months with no rest and they are all flat and beat up and I am sooooo tired....

That sounds berry nice. Patty Cure is a berry nice lady to fix Mama's toesies!!

Fluffy:: VERY nice!!

Yeah, berry nice!!

....The lady in the spot's name was Becki and she dust moved here from bee sea....

Wait a minnet! I fot her name was Patty Cure??

So did I... maybe there were two ladies

Oh, you are so smart!

Yes, I am berry smart!!

....and she lived in bee sea for a berry long time and she lived dust down the road from some people I used to know a berry long time ago when I lived in bee sea too....

Mama libbed by the sea????

Yeah, dint you know??

no....

she lived there for 22 years!!

22????

yeah, a long time. I think that's about 4 or 8 or 57 times longer than I bin alive already!!

That's a berry long time....

yeah....

....Patty Cure was so good! I never gotten one afore and it was so nice. I gotted my toenails done and gotted sparkles painted on them. Later when I was in the pool, everyone noticed my toesies and said how nice it was.

After I had Patty Cure, then I had Miss Hodges. There was a lady there I like, her name is Nancy....

OH! That must be Nancy Hodges, Mama metted her last year and the year afore that too I fink!

Oh yeah, now I get it...

....Nancy gived me a Miss Hodge....

HUH? she gived Mama another Miss Hodge? Did Nancy has to go home?? I'm confused.... anyhow....

....its called Raindrop thair-a-pee and they put berry smelly stuffs on my back, warm iss-enn-shull oils....

what are them??

I think it means smelly

oh

....oils on my back and then she rubs them in and she has a Seedie playing....

Oh, I know what them are, Max and Buddah were talking about them on Father's Day

....she has a seedie playing in the background and it has nice soft music on hit and the sound of the ocean and stuff and I coulda dust falled alseep right then. Daddy and I met outside of the spot mimmeral pool and Daddy screamed and screamed...

....Daddy had I Scream acause the loves I Scream a lot. He had two diffrint kinds and Mama tried one called Praline and cream....

I LOVE cream!! Mama is SO lucky!!

STRESSFUL WEEKEND

2007-06-26T06:05:00.000-05:00

I slept with one eye open, in my clothes with a light on. I slept with the light on until we were moved, 3 days later.

He tried to steal the car, broke the window, scratched the door, ripped the window trim off then tried to bust the steering column, in all, over $1000 damage. But we were safe, no harm to us physically. Had we not been moving, I would not have been able to stay there. It would have been the last straw. One should never feel threatened or unsafe in their own home!

He was one fry short of a Happy Meal to try to break into an alarmed house, with people home and awake and then stick around in the area long enough to actually wait for the police. It was 2 a.m. He tried to get into no less than 6 houses and obviously succeeded at some point. He broke the neighbor's window too. We have no idea if they caught him or not. They could have. All they needed to do was send that car back to the alley when he waltzed right by our back window with his newfound prize. I was ON the phone with 911 giving them a description and location as he walked by. He must be at least 7 varieties of stupid....

On top of all that, we were set to go on our holiday to the spa, the movers were showing up on Tuesday and as of 4 p.m. on Monday, the bank had not yet sent the mortgage papers to our lawyer. With all that was happening, we weren't sure we'd be able to GO on vacation. After several broken promises and deadlines, the head office of the bank finally sent the papers to the lawyer around 4:30and we were able to sign the papers and leave for holiday at the spa on Tuesday.

Angel and Taz went to the kitty condo on Monday.

Our good friend Gord works at the autobody shop his Dad owns. He and his sister and Dad got our window fixed in no time flat and we just needed to book the time to do the paint/bodywork and fix the steering column. If you live in the Regina area, we highly recommend Western Auto Body. They are life savers!!

The story continues with Tuesday, June 26th......

A SLEEPLESS NIGHT!!

2007-06-23T05:34:00.001-05:00

ANGEL!!
What?
I'm scared!!! I hearded a noise!
ME TOO!
What's that noise!!???
I dunno, wait, Mama heard it too.

MAMA, MAMA, we hearded a noise!!!

I know baby, I heard it too.

me too
Mama, wake Daddy up!!!!
DADDY!!! WE HEARDED A NOISE

Hunny! Someone is trying to get into the house!! Wake up..... Oh no! the light is on in the car... I think the window is smashed!!

What happened??

I don't know, I heard a noise and Angel heard it too and I came in the bedroom right away and looked out the window and it looks like the window is broken! He tried to get in the house, I heard him turning the door knob!! I'm calling the police now....
.... Hunny, the police are coming as soon as they can. I think he must have tried to get into the neighbor's house too, he's out standing in his yard, maybe we should go see if he heard or saw anything

I'll go check..... Hunny, that's NOT the neighbor, its HIM!!! I scared him away. He's trying to break into all the houses!

Oh! Here's the police, they have the spotlight on... I hope they can find him!

Well that was nice. We're sitting here afraid for our lives and they checked the area for a total of about 3 minutes!!! Oh wait, I think I see them out front now too...

OH MY GOD!!! Hunny, its HIM, he just came out between the two houses across the street and he's CARRYING a TV!!! I'm calling the police again, they haven't been gone more than a couple minutes, maybe they can catch him at the end of the alley...... He's walking right by our house again. What kind of thief WAITS for the police to arrive? He's crazy!!!

He broke the window in the car, the neighbor's too.

What do we do? What if it starts to rain, the car will be ruined, should we put it in the garage??

I'm not going out there again, I got lucky the first time, we can't go out there until we know they have him...

4 days until we move and this HAS to happen! Why couldn't it wait 4 days??? I'm SO glad we are moving!! I'll never get any sleep now!!!!

Mama, is it safe to go back to bed???

I think I'll sleep in my clothes, just in case.

leave the light on too, we're scared!!

IT DUST FEELS LIKE FOREBER!!

2007-06-20T07:45:00.000-05:00

It dust feels like foreber and eber since we blogged acause Mama and Daddy has been packing up lots of fings and I's been helping lots too so we are berry berry bizzy.

They wants to be dun by Friday and then they can rest a little and do errants and last minnet stuff and then on toosday the moobers come to moob alla our stuffs into a great big driving monster and then they's gonna 'tect the stuffs for a week, but we won't be here acause we gets to go to the kitty condo on monday and then on toosday the moobers come but i already said that but then Mama and Daddy aren't really moobing yet, they's going on baykayshun instead to the spot, that's the spot where Mama gets to get Miss Hodges again only I dust don't know zactly what she does wiff Miss Hodges, she dust gets her and this year she says maybe she'll get a new person too and her name is Patty Cure and Mama says she needs her acause she's been on her foots for eber and eber packing stuff so I guess Patty Cure is going to make her foots feel better?
::deep breath::
and then Mama and Daddy, they sleeps at the spot too and then they swims alla time inna great big pool but not the kinda pool wiff holes and balls dust the kind wiff water and salt and mimmerals innit and they gets to go on the great big outdoor litter box by a lake wiff lotsa salt and mimmerals in it too and they gots hamburglars RIGHT IN THE LITTER BOX! and Mama says they are berry berry good and then at night on great white norf day (that's Canada day and its on joolie first) they set fire to the sky and they do it right ober the lake wiff salt and mimmerals in it and I gess they do it right ober the lake so they can put the fire out again once they are all done acause that would make cents I spose and daddy lubs it there acause they has I-Scream all ober the place there, they has it right on the great big litter box and they has it in a Ann Teek shop in the litter box and they has it inna store down the street from the great big litter box and they has it right aside the indoor pool wiff salt and mimmerals in it but no holes for putting balls in, dust the kinda pool wiff water in it only not regoolar water, but the kind wiff salt and mimmerals in it and um.......
::deep breath::
I fink that's alla places they has I Scream in and Daddy lubs it berry much and he lubs kitty I Scream best of all and I bets you dint know they makes I Scream for kitties, but they do and its orinje and black I Scream acause that's Daddy's faveritt color and it tastes like orinje and funny black stuff that's call Lick Rish and they call it Tiger Tiger acause its for kitties but daddies like it too and then he likes some other ones too like there is this one call Pits Tashy-oh and he likes that one too so he eats I Scream alla time while they's there
::deep breath::
and then on Sundays, they go to the drive-in thee-itter and they has a place there where you can buys fleas only I don't know why anyone would buy fleas but they always say they gots a good time there and like it berry much but then when its dark out instead of buying fleas, they watch moobies on a great big white board I gess acause its the great white north so that must be how we watch movies when we don't gots no TB and it could dust be better even acause Mama says you can watch a moobie right when you sits in your car ascept you don't sit in your car right away, first you go into the moobie bilding and you buy junk like hamburglars and hot Dogs but they don't got no hot kitties, just dogs and they gots rings made from onions and dutch fried potatoes and...... huh?

ITS RAINING ON THE INSIDE....

2007-06-02T22:53:00.000-05:00

It must be raining inside our house!!

I fink Angel is wet! I should go see if there is a leak or what.....

what Mama?

ohhhhhhhhhhh

Angel been a bad girl she sits at the door and cries and cries and cries and cries and cries and cries and whines so she got squirted. Mama says, you can't go outside alla time Angel, you can't dust go out any times you want you know!! Then Daddy says when we get to the condo partment, we'll dust leave the door open and she can go in and out all she pleases.... Dust on the patio though!!! Its up berry high, so she can't walk away....

hey, that sounds like a berry good idea!!! Long as we don't let any bumbly bees in!

Mama is laughin cause she said my title minded her of a song by her berry best faveritt singer and her name is Amy Grant and she has a song called raining on the inside too. Its a bit of a sad song she says and minds her of some times that weren't as berry happy and this Amy lady sang some songs acause they were bof going frew the same stuffs at the same time and she said this Amy lady really helped wiff her songs.... that's neat when peoples can sing and help other peoples. And speaking of helping other peoples.....

today Mama and Daddy were busy packing boxes fulla stuff they are gonna "bless" someone wiff. Its this neat place for resike-ling stuff. You says, hey, I got a good dresser if anyone needs one for free, then they come to your house and pick it up!!! Isn't that great? so they got lots of stuff, too much stuff. They got stuff for a big house wiff a basement but now we gots a condo wiff no basement so we only gots one libbing room now and a smaller kitchen so there is stuff lotsa people could need. Mama says once upon a time she needed to leave her home really fast and she knows there are ladies specially ones wiff babies who gotted to leave home berry fast and dint take nofing wiff them acause they had to go fast, so sometimes their babies don't got no clothes and they don't got a bed or plates or nofing, so she says its a berry good thing to gives to some peoples who need help because she says she was luckier and when she had to leave fast, she hadded a job and some money papers, but some people dust don't. Mama says this place is all over the great white north and down south too and its called freecycle, so you can looks it up and help other people too.

Mama says I can get off the soap box now.... but I don't fink I know what the heck she is talkin bout, I don't see no soap...... I do see a lot of boxes though......

WE IS BERRY HAPPY

2007-06-02T02:10:00.000-05:00

In case you dint hear the berry berry happy news, on Taz's birthday, while Mama and Daddy were POSED to be out getting pressents for Taz, they bought a berry berry big present too. They bought a condo!! They were gone a berry long time and when they got home, they had pressents, so it was purrdy good. the second Taz saw that new hidey-cube-that-turns-into-a-bed, she dove into it and started rolling around. Then the phone rang and it was Martin our real tee guy acause Mama and Daddy were out looking at this condo, but not the luck-shree type and not the homeless type, but dust the regoolar type. And Martin said he'd call back cause you should NEVER make a decision standing out in front of a place. So he called and said he talked to the other real tee guy and if we wanted to give them some money papers to come on to the office, so Mama and Daddy lefted me n Taz alone again but when they gotted home, Taz was still lying in the middle of the kitchen in her new hidey-cube-that-turns-into-a-bed!! but they came home with some papers too and tole us they boughted a condo!!!! They said we'd love it acause it has a built in kitty bathroom! Well, not really, its a closet but the lady who lives there now has the litter box in there but Mama says maybe she'll put the broom and dirt sucking monster in there instead, but still....

There is a tuxie kitty living there now and some birdies but Mama says they are moving out too... but the lady says her kitty goes on the patio all the time and loves it so she said we would too. I just like that Mama will let me out now whenever I ask her to! At least I hope so.... She said she'll buy a swing and we can sit on the couch swing and swing when its nice out and she'd buy some seeds and plants that kitties like so we'll always have grass and nip and stuff and then they are getting some kind of thing so Barbie Q can cook for us right on the patio!!! Mama says she is REALLY good at making chicken on a stick and its my favorite, so I can't wait!!

Mama says best of all, we has to be out of our house on June 27th but can't get into the condo partment til July 3rd so they HAS TO go on holidays cause they won't has anyplace to live! So they are going to the spa again and mama will see that Miss Hodges lady quite a few times she says. She must be a really nice lady cause Mama always likes to visit her when they go. She must be a very busy lady though cause I hear a lot of people talk about Miss Hodge and she really seems to get around! Maybe she has a twin sister or something....

so they's gonna be there for Canada Day again and can watch the sky catch fire and Mama says its always really purrdy cause they do it over the lake. I guess acause if the sky catches fire then the lake is there to put the fire out maybe....

Amemember last year we said the lake is berry special cause it has lots of salt and mimmerals in it and there is so much of it in there that when you goes swimming, you float right in the water without knowing how to swim or nothing. So they takes that water and put it in the pool at the spa hotel. Mama says its like this place called the dead sea, only i think this one is still alive. She says things called brine shrimps are the only things that can live in it, but I thinkk that's kinda mean cause I been taught to not call people names so we should really call them brine little things instead I think.... so these little things live in that water. And the salt is so berry special that they go around and collect it then put it in bags and sell it to people. Imagine that, you pick crap up off the sand and sell it!!! Last year they hardly had any crap to pick up and they dint know what people would do. When Mama and Daddy were there on their hunnymoon, they even paid real good money for that and brought some home. Its posed to make you feel better when you has a bath in it. hmmmmmm Its amazing what people will pay good money papers for isn't it?

so a berry lot is happening and I guess we'll probably be berry busy for a few weeks an then we'll move and then when I write after that, I'll write on a new laptop acause we has too many puters and only one bedroom at the new place so we are only keeping one puter and Mama is selling two of hers and getting one berry good laptop so she can still de-sign web pages and write poe trees and doodle but on a really good laptop cause her other one is older and only really dust good for writing and surfing on the internet, it don't has lots of room for programs or games. So now I has to learn how to use a laptop!!! But I'm pretty good in laps so I'm sure it will be easy. I think some of you must know already, so you can let us know if you have any suggestions.

wow... so much news.

I better go, I think Taz is sleeping in my bed. Now she just sleeps in whatever one she wants, not the new one. She even went in my CUBE the other day and she was always squishing it before to make it back into a bed, but now that she thinks she has TWO of them, she just uses whatever one she wants. She don't even care that I spewed in one... sheeeesh!

talk to you later!!

ITS MY BIRFDAY!!

2007-05-30T23:15:00.000-05:00

Hi everybunny! Today is my birfday and lookie what Mama and Daddy gotted me!!! It is DUST like Angel's!!

They brot it in the house and set it on the floor in the kitchen and I dust started rolling around in it acause it has some nice catnip smell in it you know. Now Mama says we can has one hidey cube made into a cube and one hidey cube made into a bed so me n Angel both has one! I fink I can always know which one is mine acause angel bommitted in hers the other day.... ewwwww

Right after Mama and Daddy gotted home, they put my hidey cube in the kitchen then the fone rang and it was Martin, our real tee guy. You see, Mama and Daddy were gone so long, I fot maybee they were buyin me lots and lots of presents and well, they kinda were.... they botted me a great big pressent. They botted me a condo! Its not the luck-shree kind, but they say its berry berry good acause its not the homeless kind and that's berry important. They said it has a big patio angel and me can sit on wiff Mama and there is already a cat libbing there they say! Its a tuxie kitty but Mama says he is moving out afore we gets there.... but we'll prolly still smells him. Mama and Daddy ascided that a one bedroom condo would be okay acause they are gonna wait until a luck-shree condo wiff a pool gets for sale then they'll sell the regoolar condo and move to the luck-shree one, so for now, we will lib in this one acause its berry nice. It has new carpet and new paint and new cubberds and all that stuffs. Its smaller than our house but Mama says its okay cause its easy to take care of and if we's berry berry lucky, the condos will be worf maybe 10,000 or 20,000 or 157,994 more money papers in a berry little while and then we can gets a luck-shree kind. You know what else it has??? A bilt in kitty baffroom!!! yeah, there is a clossit in the kitchen and Mama opinned the door and there was a litter box!! We has a baffroom all to ourself, but Mama says she'll prolly keep the broom and vack-hume (the dirt eating monster) in there instead. bummer.....

there is a man someplace far far away in a place called bee sea and he will tell Martin, our real tee guy if Mama and Daddy can move in. If he says yes, then Mama and Daddy will go to the spot for baycayshun for a berry little while then move into the new condo wiff us. So we's berry cited and this is a berry good birfday. Okay I'm going to go roll around in my new bed summore. Fanks for saying happy birfday to me, its a berry good birfday. Oh lookie, Daddy has some scotches, I mite dust go has a drink.....
