Unusual Day

It was REALLY warm outside on Saturday. It was 70 F (21 C). It raining in the morning, then the sun came out. The Lady had lots of windows open for us cats, and we all spent most of the day in front of one or another. This is a particularly unflattering view of me looking out over the parking area behind the house. Below is a picture of Gizzy and Jasmine at the same window later in the day.
She said last year January was so cold that the temperature never got above 0 F (-18 C) for two solid weeks. That's 70 degrees COLDER than it was today. I don't think I want to know what that feels like.

The Lady was working in the sewing room all day today, making another jacket. This one is red silk brocade, and when finished will have rhinestone buttons. Of course, I don't know what any of that means. But she won't even let me get near it. (She says Red is her favorite color, but I dunno, she has a lot of pink stuff.) She must like sewing, because for the last two nights, all us cats went to bed a lot earlier than she did. She's been staying up wicked late.

Try to get close enough to nab one of those buttons. They are great to bat around the floor.

That is a wonderful window perch. A good view and something comfy to lie on. Enjoy your great weather. If you do steal one of the Lady's buttons, be sure to leave it where she can find it when you are finished batting it around.

The Lady sounds like she's very talented.

The weather over here in England is kind of warm but really gray and rainy so we just sit in the window and watch the cars go by and wait for a bird or two to show up in the garden.
