My cats take revenge on the carpet under the door if I kick them out so I can’t.

My 6 pound cat walks back and forth across my chest a few times in the morning to wake me for breakfast so I don’t need an alarm clock.

We’re at 48 today and thats good next to what we have had. The sun is very bright out and maybe we’ll get into the 50’s later. I am gonna make me a list and go to the store in a little while. I could use 67 for sure!

[MEG33]

Saved this one for you!
;o) Glad you liked my celebrations and basket..Celebrations are
sometimes good ones and sometimes not..I am happy when
they are like today's.

Love that picture...he’s so cute always!
I was clicking on it trying to get it to play...LOL....I click on everything now...hahahaha

I didn’t have much choice on mine. I had never done one and I took it hard...when I get tense, I do have backaches so awful and then sitting here so long. I was like a snail putting mine together and “I still worry about it”. Guess I’m weird! All one can do is the best they can and no more! I had to ask my adviser, Billie, a couple of questions....she is such a sweetie to help with anything!

[MEG33]

My older cat sleeps with me and never bothers me at all..My daughter’s carpet under her bedroom door is a wreck..LOL
She only closes the door now when someone is up and can herd the cats.
Mine have not discovered the seam yet..I rarely close the door to them but the kittens were waking me up every 2 hours last night romping around.
The little one is the baddest..She has me wrapped around her little paw mostly because she adores me and is near me a lot...of course.

So sweet! BBL..gotta go!

The celebrations were hard for me, too..Once I got the hang of it ..I could use an old frame to fill in new graphics and information..with a few adjustments..
I still foul up and have to correct.
.I am so glad you are doing it and practice does help..Anytime I can help ..let me know.

Lovely poetry and perfect graphic, Lady J.
Thank You!

You can train your cats to stop bugging you in bed if you want to. Everyone of my cats attacked toes till a few sharply said “NO!s”. A sharp NO several times is generally all it takes, even for little snots.

Amazing Grace

by John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!

---

Dear God, who suffered
torment, agony and death upon the Cross
to free our souls from the chains of iniquity;
protect and defend our troops.
Guide them in the performance of
their Duties.
Strengthen them to endure hardship,
danger, and deprivation in
Your service.
Let their efforts free the people
of Iraq from the chains of terror
and slavery, foster a lasting peace
in the region, and bring all to a
greater share in Your mercy.
Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving to Amy’s Place!

My daughter warned me that Rocky Balboa is deaf to NOs..sharp, loud and consistent..She will stop on most things ..but I hauled her down from the chest 5 times last night in a row and twice this morning..Stopped only because I closed my door..
Now she is the only one in here because the others are wary of getting in trouble..LOL..NOT Rocky!
I’m not giving up..Even Lady Silky took time to get “the rules”..but she did not disobey over and over and over in a row.
