Thanks, galz, for another wonderful story of a great American hero! I remember his name because of the army post named for him near St. Louis.

Hi there!

The dogs allowed me to sleep to usual time, no big transgressions.

Just hanging out with them, (actually, they're sleeping), and I'm playing son's video games, LOL.

Son called me awhile ago and said they were going to Pearl Harbor tomorrow to tour and pay tribute at the USS Arizona Memorial.

And then they'll be back late Tuesday night.

How wuz your day, kittehs and Cooper behavin'?

Howdy, LUV.

Did you have to work today or did you get lucky and have the day off?

Good pooches, letting you sleep today. And no surprises either. That combination made for a good start to the day. :-)

How cool your son’s going to Pearl Harbor. I take it this is his first trip there? That’ll be quite an experience for him. Exciting and humbling at the same time, one would think.

A decent day here. Cloudy and a little cool so it was a good day to putter around in flower beds. The clouds broke up a bit right before the sun went down so I stood outside admiring the cloud formations and the sunset colors.

Cooper’s settling in nicely. He’s lying on the floor behind the desk chair at the moment. The others have figured out he doesn’t want to fight and are slowly trying to befriend him. All except Percy and brat Lily. They still let out a yeowl when they see him and it makes me jump every time. LOL

Tomorrow, I’ll call the vet to see if he can neuter Cooper Tues. If so, I’ll drop him off tomorrow afternoon so he’ll be there first thing Tues. morning for the surgery.

Well WOOHOO on not having to work!
Sounds like you had a good Sunday!
Working 5 hours tomorrow won’t be bad, especially if it’s busy. Over before you know it. :-)

Well, we hit the 80's here, Woo-Hoo!

Yes, son's first trip to Hawaii, he and his Mom are enjoying it immensely.

I still marvel that you can call every cat by name. :-)

We had 80s all week but will be in the 70s this next week. I do wish all these clouds would drop some rain on us, though. We keep getting skipped over and we need rain badly.

If they weren't enjoying their trip to Hawaii, I'd wonder what's wrong with them! LOL! Such a beautiful place and so many neat things to see. And the weather..... aaaaaah.

Like I said last night, it's a "mommy" thing being able to remember all the cats' names. hee! I'm the one who names them so it helps. Poor Hubby can't remember them all and has to ask who's who some times.

Cooper's been enjoying some lap time but I put him back on the floor a couple of minutes ago. Lil feller is heavy!

Exactly what I was thinking and what I hope for! :)

Lots of pretty things to sell for Mother’s Day!

Just as long as you don’t get that one customer who wants a lot of things right at the end of your shift! LOL
