Noel was mesmerized by the leaves blowing in the blustery wind the other day. I have never seen her do this before. She was transfixed and then tried to catch them as they hit the glass. She ended up knocking over most of V’s little solar toys (yes, they dance on sunny days and drive me crazy with there clickity clack that I can hear all the way from my office). Noel doesn’t seem to mind the toys, but she sure wants to catch those leaves.
I cannot imagine a life without cats!

On this, our American Veterans day, I wanted to honor the Military Working Dogs, and of course all the active service people and veterans that have protected me and my family and my nation for many years. Especially remembering my Dad who served honorably in the Army during WWII, and took a bullet so that I could be free to be me; my Uncles, my Mother’s 4 brothers, all who fought and came home to their single/widowed mom; and my brother-in-law, who saw the worst of Vietnam, and still remains a wonderful gentle man.
Thank you very much.You will never be forgotten.
Have you ever thought about adopting a Military dog when they come home? http://missionk9rescue.org/

We have a new dog walker. Her name is Amanda and her service is called Synergy Pets. Rachel, from Simplifido, moved away and now Amanda is our new friend. I have not figured out that she is actually the dog walker, so I go with her. Remember, about a year ago, I stopped walking with Rachel. No matter what she did, I would not budge. But so far, Amanda seems to know how to get me up and walking. I don’t want Louise to have all the fun; until it starts raining, or snowing, or the wind is blowing too hard, or something scares me…. you know what I mean. – Sofie Bear
Photos by Amanda to Mom at work to show her that I actually went for a walk.

I would not trade cat hair in my keyboard for all the gold in the world.
I do invest in a good can of blowout (compressed air) however.
Try to clean your PC at least once a year (more if you live in a zoo).

Mom isn’t very good at being wordless, though the pictures could stand on their own.
But, we love the fall. Leaves in the water. Crisp clean air. The shadows change.
What do you love about fall?
Hope you are having a great Wednesday.

I can not believe that my baby girl is 7 years young today. She went from a scared little pup, afraid of her shadow, with a collar embedded in her neck and covered with manage, to a healthy, strong, companion. Happy birthday Lulu Belle, you are a gem.

Peanut got up to go to the potty.
The spot was so warm and smelled so yummy.

I am helping V sweep the leaves off the deck. This is great fun. I lie here in this pile. Then I lie there in that pile. Why is V hitting me with the broom? What did I do? I just want to help move the crunchy brown leaves around.
