Hidden

We had a contractor in the house today. The cats did what they always do when there are new people around… they hid. Lily has been hiding in a closet all day. Robin came into the office with me and hung out rather than finding an actual hiding place. I guess she thought that I would protect her. I would have, if need be. Of course I would have.

Thursday Morning

It's only 10am and I'm already thinking today is going to be one of those days where I just start screaming and then can't stop no matter how hard I try.Happy effin' Thursday.

Yup… that’s where my brain lives right now. Here’s a cat pic to try and calm us all down………

Hip Hip Hooray, folks. Yippee Skippee.

Busy Morning

The work day isn’t even an hour old yet and already my day is insanely busy. What’s up with that?

I haven’t had time, energy, or desire to read about the orange nazi goo’s speech from last night. I’m sure that every word was a lie so who gives a flying fuck what he said. I’m more interested in the Democrat’s reaction, which I am sure was lame and ineffectual. I wish I was being sarcastic, but I am not.

Anyway, here’s a couple of cat pics from earlier this morning to help start your day.

New Look Bedroom

The bed is in the same place. Pretty much everything else is different.

The cushions on the new chairs will need a couple of days to finish expanding, but they’ve come a long way in about two hours since I sliced open the vacuum sealed package they shipped in.

One cat shows tentative approval. The other is hiding in terror, though she was all over the new chairs as I was putting them together. The rug was just too much for her tender little soul though.

The mirror is kinda my crowning achievement. The two paintings behind the bed were a nightmare to hang and will forever feel like the bane of my existence.

Photo a Day

Yeah, my last post said it feels like a normal Monday. That feeling went right down the crapper about 20 minutes after I published the post. Fun.

I did get a nice cat pic for today’s photo a day thing. Number 184/365. We’re over half way through the project… again. I mean, this is the sixth year in a row I’ve done this thing. I shouldn’t call it a photo a day for a year thing anymore, I should call it a photo a day for a decade thing. Anyway, here’s Robin Sparkles the photogenic feline.

Stop Changing Things

Robin Sparkles looks at me and asks, “why are you moving furniture around and bringing in new stuff and hanging stuff on the walls? Don’t you know you’re messing with my vibe?”

But check it out, cat. We have a rack to put shoes on and a new hook to hang clothes on. Cool, right?

I don’t think Robin the Cat agrees that it is cool.

Emotional Support

Knowing that today is going to be a very busy day for me, Miss Robin Sparkles has offered to serve as my Emotional Support Cat for the day.

Well… maybe not the day. Maybe the three minutes she was in the room with me before she wandered off. I’ll take it.

I should note that Lily is in the room with me right now and has been for over an hour, but she’s hiding in a closet so she really isn’t much help either.
