From Olive to Mom

Recently Mom won 2nd prize in a contest on Olive's

blog.  Olive's Mom, Ms. Stephanie, told Mom to keep a lookout her prize was on the way.  Lo and behold kitties and puppies it arrived

on Wednesday November 16.  Of course anything that isn't a

bill is SUPPOSED to be for me.  I heard Mom opening something so I came to take a look.  Here is what I saw....

the most precious Paw and Heart kitchen towels.

 I immediately gave them the Madi sniff of approval THEN

it dawned on me that there had been a mistake...these towels are gray and white and have paw prints on them...they must be for me!!

 So I stake my claim by putting my ample

tush right smack dab in the middle of them.  They have a very nice texture too that feels very good to my paws!!!

I REFUSED ALL OF MOM PLEA BARGINING ATTEMPTS TO CLAIM THEM AS HERS.  THEY MATCH ME AND I'M ON THEM SO THEY ARE MINE!!  MAYBE ONCE SHE QUITS POUTING I CAN CONVINCE HER TO SEW THEM TOGETHER, STUFF THEM AND Ta Da I'LL HAVE A NEW BED.  Isn't that a peachy keen idea?
These beautiful towels can be found on
TheAnimalRescueSite.com

Olive and Ms. Stephanie I would like to thank you for sending me the lovely paw and heart towels...

rest assured I will see to it that she uses them in the most practical way.

HUGS

THURSDAY THEME SONG: ON THE ROAD AGAIN

GOOD MORNING TO YOU ALL
I'd like to thank everyone for your very kind comments yesterday...
 Mom was holding my string toy Da Bird, just over my head...that crazy Bird has teased me one too many
times.  Before long I'm going to catch it and bunny kick until it knows I'm a Diva and boss of the house.



It is Thursday so once again Mom and I want to thank Hootin Anni for sponsoring

Today we are featuring On the Road Again by the one and  only Mr. Willie Nelson...what a fun guy he is he tells it like it is and throws caution to the wind.

On the road again
I just can't wait to get  on the road again

The life I love is making music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

 On the road again
Goin' places I've never been
and Seein' things I've may never see again.

 And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again

 Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway,
We're best of friends, insisting that the world keep turning our way

 And our way is on the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends

 And I can't wait to get on the road again

All pictures were taken on two separate road trips on or about I40 East on Nov. 6 and Nov 14

If you'd like to hear Mr. Willie sing this fun song please click on the video below
and as always thank you for stopping by today.



WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

IT IS A PLANE JUST ABOUT THE TIME MOM WAS GOING TO TAKE THE SHOT SHE SAW THE PLANE AND WAITED FOR THE PERFECT SHOT WHEN THE LIGHTS WERE BLINKING!!

IT IS CRUNCH TIME...

...is what Mom bellowed while I was peacefully napping in my upper chamber on Saturday.

Being a curious feline, I asked Mom exactly what that meant.

She told me there are 10 days until Thanksgiving day

Which would mean less time behind the 'puter helping me blog this week. I told her that was unacceptable but she gave me that 'Mom look'.  I have learned pick the battles I can win and this wasn't one.

SHE TOLD ME THE SUCKING MONSTER WAS GOING TO BE SUCKING UP GRAY FURS AND DUST BUNNIES.....REST ASSURED I'LL BE HIDING IN A FAR CORNER DURING THIS EVENT

SHE SAID SHE WOULD SLAVING AWAY IN FRONT OF THIS MACHINE A LOT WHICH IS FINE BY ME 'CAUSE SHE CAN CERTAINLY MAKE SOME MIGHTY NICE SMELLS COME OUT OF IT

AS ALL THESE MACHINES WEREN'T TAKING UP ENOUGH OF HER TIME,

SHE PULLS THIS THING OUT OF THE CLOSET TO WORK ON SOME

TOP SECRET PROJECTS

ALL I CAN SAY IS THERE WILL BE DEMERITS ISSUED AND NOTES TAKEN...HER ANNUAL EVALUATION MIGHT NOT BE AS GLOWING AS SHE EXPECTS.

THE GOOD NEWS IS WE WILL BE CHECKING IN ON YOU ALL THIS WEEK BUT SHOULD WE BE MIA ON ANY GIVEN DAY ONE OF THE ABOVE MACHINES WILL BE TO BLAME.

I'M IN CHARGE

ANYTIME MOM AND DAD LEAVE HOME FOR A FEW HOURS THEY SAY MADI YOU ARE
 IN CHARGE!!
 IT IS A MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY CHALLENGING CHORE FOR A KITTY.  OFTEN REQUIRING SEVERAL NAPS IN BETWEEN SENTRY DUTY.
HOWEVER, AS SOON AS I HEAR THE KEY IN THE DOOR I RUN TO THE DOOR LOOKING VERY VERY MUCH IN CHARGE.

I CAREFULLY COME DOWN THE STEPS TO REPORT ANY UNUSUAL EVENTS OR SIGHTINGS THAT WERE OBSERVED IN THEIR ABSENCE. 

OF COURSE LIKE ANY KITTY I EXPECT TO BE REWARDED FOR A JOB WELL DONE...AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THIS BLURRY PICTURE, I'M IN A BIG HURRY TO GET TO KITCHEN FOR AN EXTRA MEAL OR AT LEAST A TREAT. 

AND THAT IS HOW A DIVA ISLAND PRINCESS CAT (AKA DiPC) TAKES CHARGE!!
