Accept the Attention

Twice today, Miss Robin Sparkles the cat has allowed my beloved wife Jen to pick her up and hold her. That’s huge. Even better, the second time she hung around for a while after Jen put her down. That’s huger!

Morning Photos

I went a little nutty with the Hipstamatic random shake to shuffle thing today. Just a little. It might be one of those days.

Command decision: Next Spring I am replacing the bird feeders. These two are pretty gross.

1:12pm on Day Five

I give up.

I logged into work at 9:00 and started digging through over a week’s worth of emails. At 10:30 I had a meeting with my staff and my manager. My boss was the first one on the Google Meet. I was the second. He took one look at me and laughed. I said I wouldn’t say trying to work today was a mistake, but… and he laughed again.

I made it to 1:00, which was sort of my goal. I then put myself out sick for the rest of the day. Just those four hours of being “on” wore me out completely. I’m done for today.

The good news though is that when I came back to the living room the cats were adorable.

Lily Strikes a Pose

Lily usually doesn’t stay in one place long enough to play the Hipstamatic Shake to Shuffle game, but she did today. Thanks, Lily Pad!

No Room!

Why do they still insist they can sit on top of the cat tree together when there clearly isn’t enough room? They will be fighting in a few minutes, guaranteed.

Morning View

After I ate some breakfast I went back to sleep on the couch for a while. I woke up to this:

And this:

Good kitties.

Cat Selfie

I’d like to think that Lily chose to sit on the chair with me because she likes me, but she really just wanted to look out the window.

Nurses

The cats have mostly steered clear of me since I started feeling sick. They did come and visit this morning for a few minutes. I think it probably had more to do with their water bowl being low than with trying to nurse me back to health. Oh well.
