Gratitude

 Kitties, Ann has given me a new header for Christmas.  I hope you like it.  Mom and I sure do!  It's beautiful.  I have a Christmas card to post a little later too, for each of you.   We are very grateful.  XX

Today was so busy for Mom.  She got her hair done, but then after that, she met with a colleague here at the house for several hours.  I adore that person and can't stay away.  Then, she headed out to see another friend and stayed there a few hours, and one came over and stayed about 2 1/2 hrs.   She said she didn't get her mail answered, or her aerobics done.  But she said at least she had a great workout yesterday.

Now me...I was busy soaking up lovins from the two friends here and some brushies from mom after her supper. I love days like that.  

I have been kinda clingy these past weeks.  Not sure why.  Mom worries a little about me.  But she was happy to see when she finally put out my brand new green tunnel...bigger than my pink one, that I was crazy about it.   I can stop in the middle and see out through the webbed enclosure in the middle of the tunnel.  And catch a breath of fresh air.  No hanky panky in there though without someone looking! 

Mom can't quit yawning for goodness sake.  She may need to go to bed earlier.  A man is coming to finish the side porch that she decided to have made.  She's annoying me with all that yawning!  STOP it Mom.

The new header is terrific, Katie; it's almost like you're in a Christmas tree - not that you would do that. That's not for dignified ladycats of a certain age. Besides, the new tunnel sounds like a much better location - and more fun, too. And visitors? You're day was indeed a good one, eh?

Your day sounds like it was great. Lovins from friends, brushing from Mom, and a new tunnel? Wowzers!

You can really get into the Christmas spirit with your new picture from Ann. And all that lovely company that you had getting ready for the holidays at seems.

We love the new header! I have also been very clingy with my mom, but it is due to the colder weather settling in and laying up right next to her helps. Keep both of us nice and toasty warm.

I think since Mom was visiting with friends and loved ones she did made wonderful use of her time
Hugs Cecilia
