Monday Mischief: Someone Is Glad Peanut’s Home
Sofie is so excited that Peanut is home from school in Israel (that was a long year) and back where she is supposed to be, in her room with the big bed that the dogs love to jump on. Peanut captured Sofie being, well…. Sofie. We are all really happy when our cubs come home, even if it is only until they go back out in the big world again in the fall. Sometimes I think the animals are happier than me that she is here – no way!
What mischief are you getting into today?

This is a blog hop. I hopped it from Snoopy’s DogBlog. Check them out for more mischief.

DogDaz Zoo: Otterly Silly
Black and White Sunday: Cuddles
Cuddles 2007
She was anything but cuddly. A seriously grouchy girl but she loved french fries. Meow Out Loud!
This is part of the Black and White Sunday Blog Hop. Thanks to Dachshund Nola and Sugar for hosting.

Caturday: Gertrude’s Request
Repost from January 2012. Sometimes a certain animal just rises to the top of the memory chain. Gertrude is gone 7 years now (my Mom is gone 14). Thinking a lot about both of them today for some reason. Though no reason is ever needed to think about the ones you loved. – Lorian

Sometimes I really miss Gertrude. She was a very quiet cat. She didn’t really interact with many people, or other animals for that matter, but she sure was vocal and bossy with me. It was rare that she even came out of my office, but, as you can see, it was a Sunday, and I was reading the big paper on the table, so she figured she would get up there and push me around. She was a very handy cat. Gerty would always be ‘poking’ and ‘pushing’ me with her paw. I figure that she was saying, “Mom, MOm, MOM!!!! Don’t you see me? I’m here and I want you to pay attention to me. And only me! MOM!!!! Are you listening?”
While I was away last week, K8 found this picture when she was cleaning her room and stuck it into the big picture I have of Squash E Bear next to my bed. It was so sweet to come home and be reminded of a furry love that has passed. Gertrude is gone 5 years now. Sometimes I swear I still see her scampering down the hall into my office. We don’t have any Calicos or long hairs at the moment, so it must be her. I wonder if she is seating with my Mom in heaven (Mom passed away 12 years ago this week, which is maybe why I am reminiscing). Past loves are always with me – just sometimes I feel a particular one more one day than another.
