Thursday Things

We all know I rock the whole Tuxedo (black and white) thing. But I think I rock the red and white thing pretty well too!

So how much snow did we get? A whole lot. Maybe 18" or so (41cm). Mom says it will melt quick, but I think she's hoping. It's a lot colder than it usually is in March.

Thursday Thing

I haven't seen any more creatures running around inside the house, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to keep watch.

Happy St Patrick's Day for all you Irish out there.

Thursday Thing

It's been a busy week for Mom. On Tuesday she attended PlusOne's concert. Last night she visited with a friend from Chicago, and tonight she's going to the Art Museum.

Fortunately, Mom has come home each night and prepared my dinner before going out again.

Thursday Thing or Two

 This is looking outside this morning.

 
This is what it looked like when Mom got home from day hunting last night.

Mom said it got up to 57F yesterday, and it was mostly sunny, so there has been a lot of melting going on. The temperatures will get back to "normal" in the next couple of days, though. That doesn't mean we might not have another snowstorm. We certainly could, but Mom refuses to shovel anything that falls after March 15th.

The website fivethirtyeight.com has an article called "Has the snow finally stopped". It's pretty interesting. We are one hour's drive north of Boston, and the dates for Boston are pretty close to here. We're not like Denver, or the high country of Colorado, where Mr Cabinetmaker lives, where they have snow through May.

Thank goodness.

Millie on the Couch

I really like the new couch. I often sleep here at night.

Or in the afternoon.

And sometimes after breakfast.

And certainly if Mom sits next to me.

Truthful Thursday

Mom should know that if she leaves a pile of fabric somewhere, I am going to find it.

Guess where I slept last night?

Heh.

Thursday Things

When the weather is HOT I nap under the bed. When it is cooler I hang out here, on one of Mom's quilts under the air colditioner.

Mom brought these in from her garden. She was all ooh-ing and aah-ing all over them. Dunno why. They aren't 'Nip.

Thursday Thing

 I suppose I have always known this, but here it is... Never underestimate the power of Mom.  She has been cleaning in the "Office" and last night she moved the bureau, re-hung her quilt and cleaned out some more stuff from the closet. She loaded up the car with two of those big bins I showed you the other day.

She wants to move the desk to the wall under the quilt, but she can't do that by herself.  I have NOT been snoopervising. There is too much craziness going on, so I have been napping on my kitty condo. I can check the room out later, when Mom's away day-hunting.

Thursday Thing

Hey! I'm over here in Mom's sewing studio today!

Mom and I sent a box of these to Mr Karate and Rubylocks. I always knew chocolate was like 'Nip for Beans, but I never thought chocolate dipped strawberries were like extra special super duper heavy duty 'Nip.

Now I know!

Happy Holidays!

Thursday Thing

I nap anyplace I want.  From this spot I can see everything.

Still no tree yet, but Mom says it's coming. It is due NEXT WEEK!

Thursday Things

It's so important to exercise regularly. I like to get my workout in before the hots get too hot. It is supposed to hit 90F (32.2C) today.

Mom had a tough time getting to sleep last night, and then a big BANG woke her up. It was the sound of a teenage sticky people slapping a stop sign, so Mom expected to hear laughing afterwards, but she didn't hear anything. She got up and looked out the window, but she didn't see anybody. It was foggy and she couldn't see much anyway. She got back into bed and tried to get back to sleep, but then she heard a "Beep-Beep-Beep" and could see some flashing lights, so she got up to look again.

On the next block over, a metal masheen had driven into another metal masheen that was parked on the side of the street.  Both cars were banged up, and were being towed away. So you know Mom, she had to watch for a while.

Thursday Things

I am very happy on Mom's recliner, where it is warm. I am giving myself a bath.

Mr Karate and his new girlfriend spent Turkey Day in Hawaii. This picture was taken above Queen's Bath on the island of Kauai. They look pretty happy too.

Thinking Thursday

Brutus, Momsbusy woofies, you guys did not win the When When Contest, as there is still snow on the ground outside. The snow is melting fast. Mom says it might rain today.

I'm thinking that if the When When Contest ends tomorrow, then Mom's got to buy a LOT of evil little chocolates!

Heh.
