.....I was woken this morning by the feel of a tongue gently licking
my feet. Once she had thoroughly washed both my feet she rested her
head on them and gazed adoringly at me while purring her silly head
off.....She *must* have something wrong with her nose....they're my

Dennis and I left at noon on Monday to go to Perth.  Dennis' flight left
at 7 am on Tuesday morning, so driving in that morning was not an option
as it's a 3 hour drive.  I got home this afternoon at 4, so was away for
a total of 28 hours.

Here is a picture of Dennis and me taken at our house July 2004.

I made a tuna/asparagus/cheese pie topped with mashed potato today for my
dinner tonight.  Kitty sat on the arm of my chair begrudging me every

so cute when meatloafing.  My mom said "That's not a meatloaf-- that's
a muffin!"
Now he has grown quite a bit, and he seems to have stopped growing

My beautiful Holly is 11 years old! It's hard to believe that so many years
have passed since I adopted her. Her name is a shortened version of "Holiday
Cat" because I adopted her between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays
(actually, the day after Thanksgiving in 1995). At ...

There is a poem called "Just a Horse" which I think is exactly how we
feel about all our animal companions and the people who think "just a
cat" "just a horse" well they really are "just people".
I'd say this applies to any of our animal companions. Author Unknown.

The class B ship races will be held in Beaufort North Carolina on June
30 to July 4th this year.  The race happens every four years, so this

This morning, after waking up at 5, I waited until 7 as usual before I
gave the cats breakfast. I think Caliban thinks if he is being really
really cute, I will forget when I was going to give him breakfast and
will feed him earlier. Usually, while I'm on the computer reading ...

Tessie adores it when we have a visitor at the house... every knock at
the door triggers a frantic run to the couch to mew for attention.
Even if they never come inside she's still trying to get their
attention and show them what a gorgeous kitty she is. But if they come
