Thanks, jaycee. How are you doing today? Did you check your mail? :)

[Billie]

OH. MY. GOSH! that is so cute and so is yours that follows it, LadyJ! LOL!

[jaycee]

LOL~~~~
Had to run to the store a minute and just got back and saw your funny post!

[jaycee]

Getting ready for that now!!!

Urgent prayers for Kitty Mittens’ Aunt Mickey. Lord, you know what is going on with this beloved aunt. Would you please enlighten the doctors so that they can heal her? Thank you my Dear Blessed Lord Jesus. I pray in your name.

[WVNan]

Hi Billie! Thank you for “holding the fort”. Happy 4th.

[WVNan]

I take it that you found a new router cord?

[jaycee]

Isn’t it funny how we get onto these subjects! I’m looking through to see yours! LOL!

[WVNan]

Oops, I picked up the news about your aunt from Kitty’s post and thought it was her aunt. Sorry about that. Prayer still stands.

[jaycee]

I liked that name ‘Dumbama’. I was thinking the other day we should call him B.O. and we all know what B.O. is! They both stink! LOL!!

[WVNan]

Hi jaycee, I had a few minutes to say hello this evening. The next two days will be too busy. Will be doing "Katie Ulen" at the Fort and participating in many 4th activities. Lots of things going on: food vendors, riverboat rides, music, parades, games, contests and fireworks. Wish you were here.

Since I probably won't be able to wish everyone a happy 4th, I thought I would do that tonight.

HAPPY 4TH EVERYONE! Batters up!

[Lady Jag]

I like to make it more formal and call him Abu Hussein Dumbama.

[jaycee]

Hi Nan, Sounds like you all will be having a lot of fun in the 4th of July festivities. Liked that little one at bat. Is he someone you know or someone you are related to? He is so cute.

I will be going to my son’s. He has a big cookout and huge fireworks display after dark. He does have a wonderful show and spends lots of money on fireworks. My other son pitches in on some of the money for fireworks because they are like everything else these days.....very expensive! We will have about 32 people attending. He is making home cooked barbeque. he bought 3 Boston Butts and has to pull all that meat.

Wishing Everyone a very Happy 4th of July as we celebrate our country! We are going to have to fight to help save our country too!

[jaycee]

Me, too! I sorta like that name but I like Dumbama best!

[Billie]

Hey, Nan! Happy 4th to you, too, dear friend! I was just answering an email and need to say goodnight now. Glad I got to see you first!

[jaycee]

Betty likes to get ready a few days ahead!

For All The Cat People Of Amy's Place


Keeping Secrets





My big friend, Marvin had to go to "The Bad Place" the other day
And now he seems preoccupied and doesn't want to play
Which I can understand, considering the time that he was away

So I've been extra special careful at being as quiet as a mouse
Resisting the urge to capture all the shiny devices in the house
That might make loud, unwanted sounds and interrupt Marvin's rest

As I amble about on spotless gloves and spats at my behavior best
Yet, I miss my friend's clumsy, clicking gait and handsome, carefree smile
So I put away my concerns and sauntered close for a tete a tete

And didn't say a word about my favorite blanket upon which he'd set
As I found out what was the matter and why Marvin saw the Vet
When I discovered the problem had to do with my big friend's appetite

I nearly swatted Marvin's long damp nose out of angry Kitten spite
For a blockage had been created by a Chew Toy and my missing Catnip Mouse
And who can I tell this juicy secret to when it's known throughout the house?

Amen to your Prayer, Dear Nan!
