Poor Bhu had to go to the Vet yesterday. He HATES her! As soon as she enters the room, he hisses and growls and behaves just HORRIBLY! I am SO MORTIFIED when this happens! Well, she had to stick him in the butt with a needle and he was writhing so much that the needle pulled out and she had to stick him again. Anyway, the poor little guy was feeling so sorry for himself, but eventually he forgave me and we are BFFL again! One good thing: he has gained weight! There's more of him to love! The GATO rules the world! xxoo P

Memorable Day!



I had to postpone my planned Memorial Day extravaganza featuring pages and photos from my father's war journal because our scanner has "retired." I hope to bring that to you tomorrow. It will be worth the wait, I promise. This has been one of the SUCKIEST three-day weekends! All these storms wreak havoc on our bodies in many ways and the yard is simply a huge layer of muck. We had to move the compost bin because it was crawling with ants! Somehow, the compost tea missed the pan and it's all over the porch now. Grilling is planned and I'm gonna sew. Hope you all are dry and happy.
I wish that people didn't have to sacrifice their lives in wars and I hate Memorial Day because it is too sad. If you are a past or present soldier I can only be grateful that you served and offer my sincerest apology for the traumas that you suffered in my name. xxxooo P

It's a Lena Horne Day
In other news, got Kyle's quilt back and will be putting on the binding this weekend, since it's supposed to rain the next five days. Linda did a great job, as usual, and VERY fast! See the sidebar for her url. We also got the memory foam mattress for LR camping and I will be making a cover for it from stash fabrics. That was also a fast transaction via Amazon.com (All Sleep).
As for the garden, if it clears up a bit this afternoon, I'll take photos of the hydrangea and roses. TA DA: we have arugula and turnips, too!

Stay dry! xxoo P

Bhu attacks Gulch Radio Guy!
If you put it on the floor, he will own it. Yes, and he will bring his little friend, Furry Mouse, with him!
In preparation for his brother Chuck's visit, Mark huffs and puffs to pump up the air mattress. Here we're thinking, "Well, it might work," but we lost the cap, so we had to stuff the hole with paper towels and put a couple of layers of duct tape on to seal it. That worked for a few hours and then it just steadily deflated! Of course, Bhu's big fat butt on the thing didn't help, you know! The next morning, we ordered a 3" memory foam mattress topper that we will use for Living Room Camping.
The brothers. Ain't they cute? Chuck is one of the Gulch Radio guys! xxoo P

American Idol Finalists as Kitchen Appliances: In alphabetical order

I'm David A Egg Poacher. I will poach your eggs perfectly, but you will have to add all the flavor afterwards, otherwise it's a bland, bland experience. Apparently, David A thinks we can't tell he is being insincerely humble. He's got a nice voice for a CHOIR BOY. What could he possibly bring to the art of music that would be believable? Unless he wears tights, I guess.

These guys and this show are SO LAME!! Have you seen them jiggle and jitter on the stage? How many left feet does each of them have? I doubt either one of them could get through a subway turnstile in one piece. The only good thing about AI is that it will soon be over! I have never seen anything so UGLY as Fantasia screaming-for-singing incomprehensibly. Baaaad show, baaaaaad show. Please PLEASE stop doing this to us!
I go watch Goma now. xxoo P

Who's yo momma?


While scrounging through boxes of photos, I found this of baby Bhu and Mark playing shortly after he joined our family almost eleven years ago. This is his Tasmanian Devil phase. CUTE!!!

And, finally, we sadly mourn the recent death of our 18 year old kitty friend Mary Beth, one of the original Glamour Pussies who lived with our friends Kay, Mike, and Dora. All kitties go straight to heaven, as we know.
Happy Mother's Day from Mommie Dearest! XXOOO P
