Back Again

I've been away for awhile because there's been a lot going on in our house... back in September I got really sick and had to have emergency surgery... I almost died and Mommy was really scared. I'm doing much better now (and so is Mommy! lol)! After my surgery I slept with Mommy under the covers and talked non-stop for days. She loved it.
Well, this is just a little update... just to let everyone know we're still alive.

Tuesday

I've figured out the perfect time to wake the Mommy. This morning I wrapped myself around her leg at 4:30am-- a half hour before the alarm went off. Mommy just figured that it was time to get up, which suited me just fine...
We went downstairs and that other creature they keep down there chased me! Mommy picked me up after I tried to climb the wall to no avail... I guess she really is good for something-- besides opening those pesky cans and being my heating pad in the winter (or when the air conditioning is set too high)! But that got my heart pumping this morning so I had to come back upstairs and smack some of my brothers around...

I started at 3:30 this morning by wrapping myself around Mommy's leg and biting her knee and crying. Somehow, though, she managed to get back to sleep! However, when the alarm went off for Daddy to get up for work Mommy hit the snooze and they got up a whole half and hour late. Things are proceeding slowly but surely.
At 5 am I went down to the kitchen with Mommy and stalked a mouse while she stumbled around getting Daddy's coffee and things together as fast as she could. I may have to rethink this whole interrupting their sleep thing. While Mommy was rushing around she almost stepped on me 3 times! I reminded her of my presence with a few sharp words and a couple of slaps in the ankles.
After Daddy went to work, Mommy had to take care of the rest of the creatures in the house so I went back up to bed. I smacked labrador, Jerry Lee, in the face all the way back up the stairs.
Now it's time to sit in the window and watch the birds at their feeder that Mommy and Daddy put up outside the window for me to watch. Then I think I'll nap for awhile. Until Mommy wants to relax anyway!
