Company Leaves

Well, now we are back to ourselves.
I must say that I am missing the company
that has been here for a while.

I am going to check on my food bowl now.
You know that I don't like it empty.

The storms came through ...

Well, another hot one today in Florida. A nice thunderboomer just came through my world. I like them but I don't like the noise they make on the skylights or the carport. I alert my mom that they are coming, as I hear them way before she does! MOL. I am the same way with someone coming to the door.

Time to get the front door open so I can snooze. You see, even though we are airconditioned, spoiled me gets to have my door open because that's the way it works around here.

Wow, Friday the 13th

Now all you cats know, we aren't
superstitious, but my mom is a bit.
I best be extra careful today.

Yesterday I behaved like a cat and
helped with a jigsaw puzzle on the
dining room table. Boy, did THAT
cause a ruckus. I don't see what's
to get excited all that much about.
I was just trying to help.

What shall I do today. Hmmmm.
Guess I will help with the making of
the bed. That always goes over well
or maybe help brushing teeth.

More company ...

My human sister and her guy from J-ville came down
to visit me today. Sis actually wanted to go for a swim
in our community pool with Mom but, hey, that's ok.
The guys talked golf and watched some of it. They kept
changing rooms so much I got tired following them
around.

I got a condo type thing from the last bunch that was
here and they made me go through my tricks. Mom
took some pictures of cute me and they will be posted
soon.

Ho meow-hum! I must go relax now.

My Tail of Devotion for Sammy

This is a special Tail of Devotion

New week

Well, yesterday was exciting.
I got my parents all going by
climbing in the kitchen, -- again!

When I hear storms coming, I like
to climb. Don't know why but it
drives my folks nuts. I go from
the floor to the glass top range
to the hood to the cupboard
and start roaming. I then go
to the valance over the sliding
glass doors and they sway a bit
as I am 12 lbs of lovableness.

My Papa can reach me to get me down,
but my Mama yells at me as she is
afraid I might step on a turned off
burner that is still hot and hurt myself.
She has to put pots on them to save
me, whatever that means.

We have a newfridge and I like to go
to that side too and then I can reach
another cupboard and really look
out over my whole domain. I keep
really still when they can't find me and
just stare at them until they feel my
eyes on them and say, Oh Samm-u-el!!!!

Oh meow, it is time for a nap. I have had
all my needs taken care of for now.

Purrrrr-hummmmmmmmm....

Sammy has been Tagged

I've been tagged!

The Rules

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats that are tagged need to write in their own diary about the seven random facts and the rules. You need to choose seven cats to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your diary.

My Seven Random Facts:

1. I live in a retirement community with my folks and like to chase geckos on the windows.

2. I like to help my mama brush her teeth and make the bed.
3. I am the announcer of visitors (and storms) to our house.

4. I like high places and bedevil my folks constantly by climbing to the top of the cupboards and the sliding glass door.

5. I was named after my Papa. When he was in the Air Force the guys called him Sammy (for Balsamo).

6. I wait patiently until 6:00 am and then start playing with my toys and push them under the folks bedroom door to let them know it is time to start my day.
7. I like to hide and jump out at my folks and grab their legs and hear them squeal.
Now I tag these 7 kitties:

1. Goliath (567870)
2. Tigger (272212)
3. Wilson (393940)
4. Areyel (466234)
5. Maisy (393864)
6. Ashley (520333)
7. Buddy (561342)

Sad Day Today

My mama's been very sad today.
Jules went to the bridge. Hootie said
that he was just strutting his stuff when
he came over. How lucky for Hootie
to have Jules up with him now.

That's all I have to write about today.

TTfurN ...

My Weekend!

Wow, what a busy weekend fur me. I had to help my mommy and papa with the jigsaw puzzle, but they still finished it. I guess I am losing my grip a bit.
Then papa cut down the hibiscus in furont of the windows so I can see out but now the geccos aren't climbing around in there. Darn. I guess I can watch them grow back aftfur my nap.

The storms came again and I was climbing up everything to get away from them. My mommy noticed this and turned my house around so I could go in and out of the diffurent floors easier. She also found all my toy meeses so I could go hide them again. I love that game. She gets out something called a 'vaccuum' and I go running. Next thing I sees, meeses. I wonder if they are in that thing? I don't know cause I am under a bed or somewhere else.

Ho hum, time fur anothfur nap.

TTfurN.

Monday, et al ...

Well yesterday was an interesting day.
One of those little geckos that I have seen
running around my bushes found hisself in
MY porch. Imagine that. He even thought
he could outwit ME.

My mommy saw that I was intent on SOMETHING
and she, being very squirmy about the critters
started watching me 'cause she didn't want it
comin' into the kitchen or heaven forbid the
BEDROOM!!!! She moved a pillow on the floor
of the porch and screamed, ran into the kitchen. She saw
a pretty good size dark gecco, well to her it
was pretty good size. Next thing I know, the screen
is open in the door, and slam go the sliding glass doors
and she leaves me to fend for myself. I had a grand ole
time just chasing that critter under the loveseat, around
the rockers, etc. Eventually tho, I got him. Now I won't
tell her if I et him or not, but he is not to be found on the
porch. I have been strutting proudly around ever since.

Now for a nice belated nap. I have been watchin' for more
of them critters.

Meowwwww *snore*. ...
