3.26.13 DeTails

Sofie TailSofie’s tail against Louise’s black fur.  It looked really cool to me.  They were lying on Peanut’s bed.

I wish sometimes that I could be faster on the camera.  There are so many times when I want to capture what I am looking at, or sounds that I hear, and share them with others, but I don’t have the technology.  We  have become a world of sharing images and sounds.  Thanks to the internet we are able to capture moments in time and catapult them across the universe.  It is amazing how much more we can experience because of these incredible inventions.  Innovation is endless.  “G-d is in the details.”

3.25.13 Monday Mischief: I Smell Smoke

2013-03-17_13-31-26_657

2013-03-17_13-31-44_678

What is that I smell?  There is something different down here by the water. FIRE!  I smell a fire.  Mommy says that I should stay away from fire. I like the smell though.  When Mommy was a little girl her house burned down, so she does not like the smell at all.  She worries at the slightest burning smell.  

Wait!  We don’t have a fire pit by the water.  That was the Horse Shoe game pit.  Someone burned stuff in the game pit.  And there is also glass in there; someone smashed a bottle.  This looks pretty dangerous.  Why don’t people take care of things?  Especially in a shared place like the private neighborhood waterfront.  This makes us all sad.  

We will stay away from the smokey smell and the glass Mom.  But can we go into the river now?  (Mom Note: Which Sofie did immediately following, without asking, but I was so glad she left the pit alone so  I let it go.)

3.22.13 Follow Up Friday: Cakes and Closed Doors

What a week it has been.  The animals, and humans, gave me the best birthday ever.  We ate a lot.  Played a lot.  And cuddled much.  That was perfect.  Thank you all for the sweet birthday wishes.  That was so nice.

winter walk 1I am glad to say that I am back to walking my mile with the dogs, even though it hurts.  I am trying to accept that maybe, from now on, my knees are just going to be a constant reminder that I am alive.  As long as the pain can stay on the nagging side and not the screaming side, I guess I will have to learn to deal.  At least no surgery! Louise and Sofie are so happy to be back on the road with me.  And we even are walking with Mojo rising occasionally (Louise’s boyfriend from next door).  

Peanut left last Sunday to go back to school, so of course, Nine ended up locked in her room one night this week mysteriously.  I swear that cats can teleport through closed doors, but it seems they can only go one way; they do not seem to be able to teleport out.  He was around for dinner and snack, but V found him in the morning frantic.  We did not hear a peep all night though.  I do wonder what he destroyed in there (sorry Peanut, I will go check).  

Many blog friends were worried that Noel would hurt Sofie with her menacing glare.  Let me assure you everything is all right.  We have never had a cat to dog fight in this house.  Only cat to cat.  Noel could do some damage if she were to get angry, so I never want to cross her.  

2013-03-17_13-32-09_8Weather has been crazy but we are going down to the water more and more.  The Osprey have returned and their nest is up and ready for the family.  Amazing.  I just read an article that the Bald Eagle population of Maryland has grown tremendously in the area.  I haven’t seen any by me yet sadly, and I am wondering if maybe the Osprey keep them away.  They sure don’t keep the Turkey Vultures away (wish they did).  

Baby Girl croppedBaby Stella has fallen in love with K8 and won’t leave her alone.  She is in her room all the time now.  I think she needs to be separate from her brother Nine, to have any chance at a voice. She did a great job of playing tag on Thursday with Little Binky of AngelWhisper.  

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.

3.18.13 Monday Mischief: Only One So Far

2013-03-14_13-27-09_815

2013-03-14_13-27-20_362

The dogs and I like to walk on the floating pier and I tell them to “go fishing,” and they run and sniff all the interesting smells around the boats.  But there isn’t much to sniff right now.  Only one boat appears to be brave enough to be in the water (it is still pretty cold – they are calling for flurries tonight).  Boats around here are mostly wrapped in fancy white stuff and on trailers in people’s yards during the winter.   But, they will start coming back to the pier pretty soon since the daffodils and crocus are blooming.  

The pier is on ‘Breezy Point,’ at the end of my peninsula, and, yes, it is very breezy. The girls are running into the wind, which they love.  Talk about mischief!  When the wind blows Louise can get into a lot of trouble following the scents on the wind.  I love the smell of spring in the air, even if it is below freezing. 

Do you get into more mischief in the wind?

3.12.13 What Did You Build Today?


nine k8 windowIt is starting to be nice enough to open the windows.  With the bathroom window open, Nine, the Mancat, decided it was the purrfect place for his afternoon siesta.  K8 caught him enjoying the moment.  It get’s harder and harder to resist taking a break and going out to see the buds on the trees and the birds busy with their nesting.  Ever day now the mailbox (which got bashed by some kid’s with a baseball bat last fall, so it does not close) has been full of nesting material.  Today, when I came back from my walk (yes WALK, today was the first time I did my full 1 miler with the girls) there was a fully complete bird’s nest in the box.  How sad, because I had to remove it and set it into the bush next to the box so that the mail carrier could deliver the mail.  I tried to close the broken door to the box so they will build elsewhere, but I am not to successful.  This is so exciting.  I love baby birds.  Good thing that my cats only see them through the windows.      

Does spring air make you sleepy?  Does it make you want to go out and build something?

SPRING IS SPRINGING!!!!!

3.11.13 Monday Mischief: Is It Spring Forward, Fall Back?

Waiting for springLouise and Sofie were waiting in the yard for spring yesterday.  Maybe it was because the clocks changed here in the United States for Day Light savings time.  

Something caught there attention beyond the fence because they were both transfixed  for a long time.  Maybe it was spring coming over the hill?

When daylight savings time changes for spring, it changes human’s mood for the better; the animals, I don’t think they really care.

 

How does Day Light Savings time effect you?
