Beautiful Weekend

It is sunny today which means I got a lot of housecleaning done.:)

Now I can think more clearly with my house in order. We are getting really cold at night, but the past two days have been beautiful!


Once again, I missed my Friday charity. Fridays are little devils right now! But this week I couldn't decided between two, so two it is:

Dogs on Deployment - dogs in need of a home is heavy on my mind right now. There is a doberman in need of hospice care right now that it is absolutely killing me not to be able to take in for his end of life. Then this week there was an article calling out for temporary homes for dogs during their human deployments.That is how I learned about Dogs on Deployment. Take some time to check out their site, maybe you even have room for temporary boarding.


Save the Nautilus - this one I just couldn't pass up. I am totally sucker for young people taking up a passionate cause. These two young men even got a chance to accompany Dr. Peter Ward on his latest Nautilus study. Check out the artwork and get educated on the devastation to the nautilus population from jewelry. I have to admit I didn't even know how prevalent the usage was.

Before I leave you on this nice Saturday, now about some cat toy antics...

The cats have more or less divided the toys, the fish from Cindy is Emile's, and the pink kong fluffy thing is mostly Leela's.

Thursday I came home and found Leela's on the kitchen window sill.


Leela looked disgruntled.


This may be the closest I have ever seen Emile come to laughing.

Have a great weekend.

  1. We have had some nice weather the past couple of days too and we got out for a nice walk with Millie today. So are you implying that Emile put the kong toy on the counter and Leela couldn't get to it? Your cats are so cute.

    1. It sure seemed like something went on and Emile got the upper hand. :) I have never known her to turn down climbing, but he is the better of the two. Mostly it was clear I had interrupted something.

      Hooray for nice weather!

  2. Glad you are having some great weather! It sure does look nice.

    Those are two great charities! That's very interesting about the Nautilus.

    That's pretty funny about the pink kong!

    Hope you had a great Saturday!

    1. You know, I don't know if either of my cats will put up with much brushing. Emile does like those glove systems however and I can get a lot of fur out of him if it has been awhile.

  5. That pic of Leela is the epitome of "disgruntled cat!" You could spawn a whole new generation of LOLcat cartoons with that one, it is awesome.

    Glad you had sun and thanks for the charity info!

    1. Leela is the master of funny faces. :) I don't know what I walked in on, but yes, she was in a total snit and I think Emile had something to do with it.
