The Feline Rules

Wednesday, April 13, 2011


I stumble upon the most random things sometimes. Yesterday, I found this. It so fits my spoiled kitties life.

 FELINE RULES OF LIFE (read here)

Some of my favorites:

DOORS: Do not allow closed doors in any room. To get door opened, stand on hind legs and hammer with forepaws. Once door is opened, it is not necessary to use it. After you have ordered an outside door opened, stand halfway in and out and think about several things. This is particularly important during very cold weather, rain, snow or mosquito season. Swinging doors must be avoided at all costs.

BATHROOMS: Always accompany guests to the bathroom. It is not necessary to do anything. Just sit and stare.


RULES OF HAMPERING:

A: When supervising cooking, sit just behind the left heel of the cook. You cannot be seen and thereby stand a better chance of being stepped on and then being picked up and comforted.

C: For knitting projects or paperwork, lie on the work in the most appropriate manner so as to obscure as much of the work or at least the most important part. Pretend to doze, but every so often reach out and slap a pencil or knitting needle. The worker may try to distract you; ignore it; remember, the aim is to hamper work. Embroidery and needlepoint projects make great hammocks in spite of what humans may tell you

WALKING: As often as possible, dart quickly and as close as possible in front of the human, especially on stairs, when they have something in their arms, in the dark, and when they first get up in the morning. This will help their coordination skills.


If you own a cat, you too will find this easy to understand and equally funny. Because it is SO TRUE. Love my Lily but it's true, she runs the house. The queen.

Song of the Day

Tuesday, April 12, 2011


Definitely a perfect song for the icky, rainy day today. Also, it is definitely majority of what I will be doing today :)


 



Restless

Sunday, April 10, 2011


Lately, I have been so restless. As if I was in a cage and want out. Ever feel that way?

I'm not sure if I have just been stuck in a rut for awhile or what it is. But I want to rememdy this ASAP. It's just not a good feeling. Maybe I need some new hair. My hair has changed quite frequently since about 8th grade. My mom blessed me with some highlights and the obsession never stopped. 

Every so often I get a new hairstyle and switch it up. I also switch up the hair color. Colors of hair I have had : red, blonde, platinum blonde (yea I won't be revisiting that one) black, dark brown, light brown. Hmmm. I'm sure there are others. Short hair, long hair, layers, no layers, side bangs, straight bangs, no bangs. I have had it all. 

So maybe it's the hair that needs to be changed. Or maybe I need to switch states? I mean I have lived in the same one for 24 years, maybe it's time to experience a new one. One with sun and warm air. Moving anywhere in general could also be the fix. I have been in limbo on this for awhile so I guess it just needs to happen.

Then again it could be the endless winter we are experience that is making me feel this way. Come on Mother Nature, it IS April. 40 degree weather just isn't cutting it anymore. Bring on the 50s and 60s please. 

Then I am back to who knows. No one I guess. 

Now that I have been all over the place with this post, I will leave it with a quote that might describe my feeling.




"Sometimes I lie awake at night and I ask, "Why me?", then a voice answers "Nothing personal, your name just happened to come up."-Charles M. Schulz



Let's Go Yankees!

Friday, April 8, 2011


Proud to be a born and raised New York Yankees fan :)
And I am super excited baseball season is back in action!

Tuesday night was my first game of the season and let me tell you, it was a chilly one. And even if they lost in the last few innings....it was a great start to baseball season.

It was my cousin, Heather's, first Yankees game and I am so glad we have brought another Yankee fan into the family. She really enjoyed the game despite the freezing temps. So much so we already have tickets for another game in May. Free Yankee flower pot included. Look at her all excited!


We arrived even before gates opened so many pictures were taken.


A visit to monument park was a must. 


Once we took our seats it was apparent I wasn't going to get through this 3 hour game without some extra layers. Commence blanket/glove searching. Here was my savior for the night.

See ya May 24!

~The essence of the Yankees is that they win. From in front or from behind, they win. And that's why the history of the New York Yankees is virtually the history of baseball~
