Spring is in the air . . .

Went to John's this past weekend to check up on my buds, Hera and Isis. I told Isis she could sit and watch us do the jigsaw puzzle if she stayed in the box. She surprised me by actually staying in the box for a while, but she still managed to get into mischief! We managed to finish the puzzle anyway, a splendid old TUCO, a thrift store treasure. Isn't it lovely? And isn't she a cute little stinker?

I went with John to look at new furniture for his living room. Now that Hera and Isis are declawed (awwwww), he can get go ahead with his purchase ANYTIME! LOL  The girls are doing well after their procedure and will soon be back to full speed, sweet little girls. They rested a lot last weekend.

I saw a book at the thrift store titled Life is Too Short to Fold Your Underwear! LOL

Saw a couple of good short films. "Seeds" (damn you Monsanto!) and "Bargain" (lol this one turned out just like I wanted it to). The discovery that I can play favorites from YouTube on my ROKU has me reliving the 70's, remember those TV movies of the week? The opening music has me flashing back to my childhood! LOL

John was still doing the vegan thing and we got hooked on soup, salad, and that vegan garlic toast. Good eats. John whipped up this tomato soup . . .

Midge and Finn continue to be sort of friendly. Very strange. The Smidge caught her first bird of the season today! At least the first bird of spring that she tried to bring in the house! ARGHHHH. 'Tis the time of year to check the cats' mouths before you open the door I guess.

Midge has a foot fetish.

My sweet Finn.

John's last weigh-in for his Biggest Loser competition at work is tomorrow. He is well on his way to success in the getting paid to lose weight for the on-line challenge that ends in July. I am still faltering. Grrrrrr.

Glad that big snow missed us. Though a snow day would have been nice! LOL

My knee is feeling better. My insurance approved that really expensive shot that helped my knee years ago, back when I was still playing softball. I'm going to go get it mid-April.

Had a good St. Patrick's Day Party. No ambulances! And I learned a new song courtesy of the OTHER Kathleen . . .

I'm a rambler I'm a gambler
I'm a long way from home
And if you don't like me then leave me alone
I eat when I'm hungry and I drink when I'm dry
and if the good Lord is willing, I'll live 'til I die.
 
I think those are the words. You'd think as many times as we sung it at that party I'd remember the tune too. . . but there were these Irish Flag shots. And the shot glasses were oversized! The food was outstanding. My favorite party food of the year. I suggested to the Other Kathleen that we have another St. Patrick's Day party later in the year, and I think it's a go.


Anyway no news is good news. Life is blah, work is blah, I am blah. Ready for some nice weather and to have a knee that feels good enough to log some miles on the towpath.

Take care folks,

Kay :)
