It's all Mom's fault

She keeps telling me we will blog soon, but then she never gets around to helping me. She hasn't even uploaded any pictures in months... and I don't like to make posts without pictures. But today I just had to do it. She's busy at school/work trying to finish her Ph.D. But she isn't even going to finish it until December (whatever that is) so I think there is still plenty of time in the day for blogging. I miss blogging and all my blogging buddies. I try to read your sites sometimes, but it is hard with the laptop computer on the fritz a lot and my restrictions with the house computer because I took the tab key for a walkabout (naturally those pictures are still stuck on the camera somewhere). I'm still allowed to use that computer, but I have to be supervised.

I will tell you that I did survive my visit at Mr. and Mrs. B's house while Mom was away, but just barely. I will tell the whole story of that when Mrs. B gives Mom the film of the pictures she took so Mom can develop it. Let's just say it was very scary, and though Mr. and Mrs. B were very nice to me, I never really want to be anyplace but home. I have scrounged around the computer a bit and found some pictures we haven't blogged about before, so I will post them now for your pleasure. Thanks for all your comments, and please keep coming by my site. Mom promises we will update more soon, but she always says that.

Here is a picture of when we used to blog together a lot:That's me curled up on her lap at the computer desk.

And these pictures we've had for ages. After Christmas when Mom was taking down the tree and wrapping some ornaments in paper towels, I spied the roll left unattended and made it MINE! Mom laughed and said I could have it. Oh I do love paper towels and toilet paper and tissues...
Boy that was a fun night! Oh and before I go, I see that many kitties out there are posting about their favorite blogging words. I like so many words. Let's see:
Squillions of course is an obvious choice, given to us by William. But along this line, I also enjoy Bajrillion, which is a number Buddah has quoted once or twice, usually referring to "sleeps", another word I like. It's a typical word, but I like the way he uses it! I like chin scritches (see also scritchies). Oh and Doots just cracks my Mom up. There are tons more, but I can't think of them right now.

Anyway, I hope all you kitties and beans are well. I'll post again when I can!

I know what you mean Mattingly. My Mom's been hogging the puter. Got any spare paper towels? That looks like fun!

That paper towel romp looks delightful! I used to do that often--until Mom started locking the paper towels away.
