Fluffy Rain

Well, the diary gal thought I need to be a diary pick. So I thought I'd better write something worth reading for you. (not that saving fishes isn't worth reading)

It was fluffy-raining here yesterday. I woke up and big flakes slid down the window. I tried to catch two. Timo ran out on the Patio expecting sun to warm his fur. He turned around and ran right back inside (must not get the fur wet). Then I ran from window to window and told Mom: Mom, it's fluffy raining here too. What's fluffy rain? Well, we are not allowed to use the S-word because it's May 3rd already!! For crying out loud. Makes me wanna cry seeing all that. We got 1.1 inches. At least we broke a record. It never fluffy-rained this late in the year this far south in Iowa. One area in northern Iowa got 11 inches :(

Heck Sunday was in the 70s, Monday 86! Tues & Wedn in the 50s AND NOW THIS. Mom planted Geraniums and Petunias in two containers Sunday. It was sooooo nice, she said she HAD to plant something. What are the birds going to do? There is fluffy rain in their nests. I hope they have flood insurance. It fluffy-rained some more last night. Waiting for it to melt off my lawn :(

Lets save some fishies

Hi all. How is your Spring coming along? Ours is cold and wet. But the weatherwoman on TV said it'll warm up soon.

We are out of dishwasher detergent and that made me think of the fish and of Earth Day. Earth day was a few days ago, but you can still celebrate by saving the fish. If every household in the U.S. replaces just one 45 oz. box of regular dishwasher detergent with phosphate free detergent we could prevent 60 million pounds of phosphates from going into the rivers and lakes. And that saves fish! Please have your purrson look for this stuff next time they go shopping. It's widely available and doesn't cost much more.

YAY for the fish.

Chips n' Dribbles

Mom was wondering why there are chips on the table and on the floor. Very strange. Is the bag defective? Yes, there is a hole in the bottom. It's a paper chips bag. I wonder who chewed a hole in the bag?

I have to go and help Mom fill out her bracket. Mom knows nothing about BBall. She isn't done yet but I think she made some mistakes already. She picked Arizona to loose (hope Samoa doesn't find out), the Iowa Cyclones to loose (I can understand that, we are Hawkeye Fans). I better help with this. I hope she wins the pool and then I'm going shopping with her prize money.

Speaking of Samoa- Stop by on Samoa's Page to learn how to help Kitty. Kitty and her kitten live at Blizzard's place . Blizzard's Dad is an angel for helping them.

Please pawmail the wonderful Miss Samoa McBoa for info on how to help.

You have to take out the space that catster will put into the link. Or just pmail Samoa. That might be easier.

Purring for Kitty

A pair of shoe

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Are you wondering what I want for Valentines?
What girl wouldn't like another pair of shoe?

Red pumps
green loafers
Bedroom slippers looking like a bunny
Tennis shoes with stripes would be funny

Cowgirl boots are cutes
Maybe some sandals
Flip-Flops for the beach
Black shoes with high heels and candles

Is any of this out of reach?

Your eyes are not blue

Roses are red,

your eyes are not blue,

I love watching romantic movies with you.

(guess who I love watching movies with?)

Violets are blue

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

You are just the best snuggle bear I ever had, you.

(for my snuggy buggy snuggle bear)

Roses are red

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

I love that you're so floofy, you.

(for my Sweetie Zeke)

Nocat ever asked me

Nocat has ever asked me if I wanted to be their Valentine. I think that's because I'm a wild thing and that scares the man cats away. Now finally the wonderful cute Zeke has asked me if I want to be his Valentine and I said YES! *jumping up and down for joy* Isn't it meowvelous? I am such a lucky girl. I have a Valentine!

We were sitting next to each other in one of our groups, watching a movie and that's when I first noticed how handsome he is. I love gazing into his green eyes and I like his orange floofy fur. Oh, I am so happy! Thank you, Zeke, for asking me.

And we have so much in common. We are both 11 years old. We are both Tabbies. We like to sleep on people's laps or on our Mom's. We both have asthma. Well, my vet doc says I have asthma but I've been fine ever since one episode in the summer. The doc says there are stripes on my lungs but I think those are just my Tabby stripes. I'm striped inside and out.

Here's a link to my sweetie's page. Isn't he handsome?

I love my Zeke a doodle.

Kissies,
your Mietzi

The Chicken Florentine Printer

Mom? May I talk to you?

- Sure Mietzi. What's up.

I was thinking... Are printers very expensive?

- Well, that depends. Some are cheap. Some do a lot of stuff and cost more. Why do you ask?

I think we should buy a new one.

- Why Mietzi? Our printer still prints fine.

Well, you see I was sitting on the printer. And you know that new food you bought me? The one with the white sauce in the green can?

- Yes

Chicken Florentine is what it's called. I thought that sounds so fancy. I thought I would like it. It went down OK. But then I think the Chicken wanted to go to Florentine...I think that's in Italy... The chicken came back up and now it's on the printer. And you know the slit where you put the paper in, and then the printer goes rrreeeeet rreeeeet rrreeeeeet? There is a bit of Chicken Florentine in there now.

- MIETZI !

If it fits, it ships

If it fits, it ships my furry....TAIL. Dang it. Get in there. Mom, put your paw, um finger right there. Now I'll push on this end with my paw.... and, umph, it won't FIT. Come on you.... gift. Fit in the box. Hmph, won't fit. Now what?

Oh hi. How are you doing with your holiday preparations? Are you ready for Christmas? Did you help your Mom with the tree? Did you help Pawpy carry in the gifts and arrange them under the tree? Did you snoopervise that all three Wise Men are in the Manger? Helped to write cards? Wrapped gifts? Held the ribbon in place?

The holidays are so busy. I think we finally got Mom ready.
We are going to get a winter storm tomorrow afternoon. 6 to 8 inches of snow. Our first snow of the season. Hopepurrly Mom can come home early from work and maybe stay home Purrsday too if the roads are too bad. Too bad, MOL.

Gotta go. I have some more wrapping paper to tear up.
Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.
Mietzi
