La Maison de Deux Chats...Catfish...and More

Meet Suri...

Who is now Sofi's partner in crime.

Left abandoned in a nearby park...maybe 6 weeks old or less...very tiny and thin...rescued by Chris ( but our local no-kill shelter was closed until Tuesday) brought here until then because of their dogs.

Except by then she had tabbied her way into a name...a food dish...the litterbox and a home...

She and Sofi now play buddies.
Tag, hide and seek, and such

(...and I am out numbered again...)

She is a keeper!



Mostly a Cinderella Week...saving my energy for our upcoming Brown County Escape, and Sisters Day.

A midweek visit by Chris who has learned the art of "disassemble" now and photographed it in black and white...


and looking forward to a Sunday BBQ with James, Nicole and The Grands!

(the new grill)

John, off yesterday to the lake with Robert (his son) for some night-fishing.

And emerging this morning with a stringer full of catfish!



And commentary from Gizzy when they arrived home-

"What an AMAZING smell you've discovered!!!"

Also marking "Che" (Idgy's son's) 21st Birthday today!!!!

Hard to believe...when I first met him he was around 8 years old.

Now, he is over 6 feet tall and a wall.

The Shoppe is looking really good and slowly getting a fallish-thing happening!

We are hoping to get together for her Birthday, and an Early Christmas, this December!

Speaking of Christmas

(quit groaning...it is NOT too soon)

Saw this a while back...

And absolutely LOVED it.

Definitely going for a Coastal Christmas Theme this year.  I have a lot of the shells and driftwood already!

And the Teal balls.

Thinking a sand colored throw blanket as a tree skirt, and using brown postal wrapping and jute with tags and a shell attached to the packages!

Anyway...

This Week's Book


Cameron's book after a year of meditative blogs.

You can see her journey here

A reflective look at kindness, and the changes it can make in your life.

Excellent read!

The Movie...actually the beginning of a TV Series that is already 5 Seasons in...looking for something new since G.O.T ended. 

Chris suggested this...and I'm soooooooooooooooo hooked.

Not binge watching it, though.

One Episode a Night.

(okay...maybe two)





A prequel to Psycho...it explores how Norman...well...becomes Norman Bates.

Great psychological thriller! 

And I'm only on Episode 7 of Season One...so a long way to go!

Well cast...entertaining.

Now back to the house-cleaning and cat wrangling...
Have a wonderful Weekend!
