You're so needy!!!!!

As I recover from knee replacement surgery Josie is reminding me of my neediness on a daily basis.


You need ice packs.
You need something brought to you.
You need pain meds.
You need a snuggle.
You need me.


Though she may complain about it I give her lots of credit because she's been a little mother hen, always watching out for me. Hopefully surgery #7 is the one that actually works!


I've also had many other mother hens keeping an eye on me. Some sent flowers, some brought food, some sent texts and e-mails, some cleaned up puke.....all has meant a lot. Brent and Josie have definitely faced the brunt of my neediness (and Mom faced the grossness of my neediness) and have handled it well.


Here's to a less painful and more active life once I'm healed!

Hide and Seek

Josie and her friend were playing hide and seek with the cats. 

The cats were deathly afraid and very good at hiding. 

I can't imagine why.

Thumbs I tell you!

Our cats have thumbs. Seriously. 

I've written about it before but they continue to amaze us with their thumbability. 

Here is a loaf of bread that they managed to steal out of a drawer that was fully shut. 


Here is a bag of cat treats that they opened. In their defense the bag was left on the floor but in a matter of minutes they had the top torn off and were ready to dig in. 


Bread. Cat treats. Marshmallows. 

None of those items are safe in our house. 

You've been warned.
