January Photos

What a month of roller coaster news and time off. I still couldn’t manage to post timely!

Ginger Kitty was a street walker for the first year and a half of her life. I found her by accident in the window of a pet food store on view for adoption. I was halfheartedly looking for a cat to adopt, but didn’t even see her in their window when I wandered into theContinue reading “I guess you’ll do…”

The power of the purr

Coe has been feeling a little poor the last few days and Ginger is doing her darndest to help her feel better. Normally when a Ginger tries to curl up, Coe harrumphs and moves away. Today, she’s taking all the love & snuggles available. #365project #photoaday Since I’m a day behind because of crazy lifeContinue reading “The power of the purr”

Slow days

I’d like to say I’ve some something productive with being snowed in and off work. What I can tell you is I’ve played on the computer, read lots of recipes, caught up on Doctor Who, taken a lot of naps, and taken tons of pictures of my napping cat. I’m bored out of my gourd,Continue reading “Slow days”

the love of a pet

I have a coworker who is afraid of animals. She’s in a wheelchair and her mother is encouraging her to get a service dog. The problem is she is terrified of dogs. Not just dogs, but cats.

Are you going to leave here today armed with the knowledge to express your pet’s anal glands? No. Your take away is I don’t have the slightest clue how to express an anal gland. Why, oh why, wouldContinue reading “Express yourself “

Snowed in

We have been snowed in since Thursday evening. While I was delighted to have a few days trapped indoors, the one who was the happiest about this situation was Ginger. She has been curled by my side, snuggled into my sweater, and following me from room to room. I am getting the impression she’d likeContinue reading “Snowed in”

Weekly Photo Challenge: Selfie

I’m terrible at the selfie. I was recently on a flight and the woman across the isle from spent a majority of the trip taking pictures of herself. I really wanted to rip the phone out of her hand. Good grief- you can’t change that much in the span of a 45 minute flight- noContinue reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: Selfie”

a moment that feels stolen

I’m sitting on my front porch basking in the sun looking at weeds that need to be pulled and pretty little starts waiting to be planted. All the while, I’m enjoying a glass of wine feeling decadent that I’m NOT working. Coe is an evil sneak and is the master of the cold nose to theContinue reading “a moment that feels stolen”
