Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend!  We had a busy weekend playing nurse and holding Mommy down...

It's a tough job but somekitties have to do it!  

If you're friends with us on Facebook you might have seen that Mommy did go to the doctor for her sore throat and she tested negative for strep but was given pain meds that gave her a severe reaction at 4am Sunday morning.  After we went on duty and kept her down all afternoon she's doing a lot better.  Knowing April 15th is two weeks away helps too!  These two weeks will be busy so bear us if we don't get a chance to post or comment.  Life will be back to normal soon!

Hope you have a great day!

Finally Friday!

We're so glad it's Friday!  Today is for the first time in a month the noisy stranger won't be here.  Yay!  It doesn't mean he's done, it just means Mommy told him to stay home today.  He did finish grouting the tile so it's officially done...

But the rest of the room, not even close...

He was going to finish the baseboards yesterday but he has to replace some of them so Mommy said just bring them back on Monday.  We all wanted a break from him being here!  At least the floor is finished so I can play wiggly worm...

Cold, dusty tile is the closest I'll ever get to rolling in the wild!  

We're going to take a break until Monday too because our mommy isn't feeling too well.  She doesn't have a cold like Daddy did so she can't technically blame it on him but she's battling a sore throat, headache and ear ache and it's worse when upright so we'll hold her down this weekend so she gets well soon.

Have a fabulous Friday and a great weekend!

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday, the bestest day of the week!  It's my day so I'm going to nap, snack and nap again since I've been so busy around here.  I've had to hold Daddy down so he could get well enough to go back to work today...

I've also had to help Mommy by inspecting the no-no bracelet she's making for somebody special...

I know you're thinking that's an awful lot of work for one Tortie and I would have to agree!  I've certainly earned my day of rest!

Hope you have a restful day!

Weekend Wrap Up

It's a new week already - another week closer to April 15th and to the end of the remodel!  Yay!  We hope you had a good weekend!  We spent the weekend taking care of Daddy cause he's got a horrible cold but we all knew that if Mommy didn't get a break, everyone would be sorry so she went out with her friends.  She showed us the photos from their outing and at first we saw lots of daffodils...

And then a Kansas-y photo to remind her of her home state...

But then we saw this one that shocked us all - a little sticky person!

Mommy wanted to take a photo of the row of daffodils while the little girl's mom was trying to get her picture several rows over.  Before Mommy could take her first photo of the row, the little girl came over and changed those plans...

Those little beans are something else!  Of course we did find photos that didn't surprise us at all...

All three of the dogs were in a photo shoot and supposed to be looking the other direction but Mommy changed those plans...

She was shocked when the lady tried to get their attention again and called out "Sadie!" which is the sheltie on the right.  Guess you can never be prepared for things like that.  Anyway, Mommy had a fun time with her friends and came home relaxed and happy so we're glad she went.  Daddy is on the mend but with the best nurses ever he'll be well very soon! 

Hope you have a lovely day!

Happy Spring on Sadieday!

Spring has definitely arrived in our neck of the woods so we hope the same is true for your neck of the woods!  Be sure to get out and enjoy the fresh air and flowers!

We'll be enjoying window whiffs and sunpuddles while hanging out with Daddy.  Mommy's friends are getting her out of the house for a much needed break.  Whatever your plans are we hope you enjoy every minute of the weekend!

As always, spread some kindness and smiles and brighten someone else's day along the way!

Happy Sadieday and have a great weekend!

Finally Friday!

Once again we're so happy it's Friday.  As you noticed, we didn't do a post yesterday and that's because after us helping Mommy do tax returns for over 10 hours on Wednesday, she decided to paint the guest litter box for two hours instead of helping us post.  She is not a fan of white walls so the painted walls are the only thing finished after three weeks into this remodel...

We have discovered that contractor speak for 'being ahead of schedule' actually means 'I'll still come every day but not stay as long'.  A little of everything is done but nothing is complete (except for the painted walls).  Don't worry, we're inspecting the progress...

He'll grout the shower Monday and today he'll grout the new tile floors and clean up the mortar mess he made with the shower niche thinga-ma-bob yesterday...

As if that mess doesn't churn the stomach of a stressed out CPA in tax season enough, the tub will do it...

At least the paint job looks good Mommy!

We're doing our part to ease her stress and make her smile by being sweet like this...

Now admit it, that made you go awww too didn't it?  Thought so!

Hope you enjoy your Friday!

What Would You Do?

If you saw me resting my Tortie face on my Tortie toes, what would you do?

I'm laying on my Mommy about 8 inches from her face with my head on her right forearm while she's holding the tablet in her right hand so what'd she do?  She took her cell phone in her left hand and bent her left arm like a pretzel so the phone was on her right side.  She then tried to take a picture but she's right handed so her left hand doesn't work well especially upside down.  Then her fingernail was all that was hitting the button so the picture wouldn't take so she had to pretzel a little more to get her finger on the button.  All of that for a picture of me but as you can tell, I didn't even notice...

I know you're thinking I'm so cute no wonder she wanted the photo.  This is true but what lengths would your humans go through to get a photo of you?

Hope you enjoy your day!

Isabella

PeeS:  Do you see any Tortie furs on her black shirt?  Nope, nothing, nada.

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday, the bestest day of the week!  I may have mentioned once or twice that I'm a Daddy's girl but I wanted to show you just how I have him wrapped around my paw.  Are you ready?

See how subtle I am when I sneak up and give him a gentle headbonk...

Yep, he is totally wrapped around my paw...

While I'm here I might as well help him with his Sudoku...

I love my Daddy!  I love pens too...

Life is good!

I hope you have a wonderful Tortie Tuesday!

Weekend Wrap Up

What a busy weekend!  I had to help Mommy work on tax returns...

Mommy also painted the guest litterbox ceiling but I'm not allowed to go near her when she's doing that (for some reason) so I held down the couch...

Isabella snoopervised her making a no-no bracelet...

She then inspected her progress too...

And then she reminded her why they are called no-no bracelets!

These working weekends are exhausting!  What's a kitty to do to get some time off around here?

Did you have a relaxing weekend?

Happy St. Patrick'sDay!

Smile, It's Sadieday!

It's Sadieday and it's also officially one month of tax season to go!  That's plenty reason for us to smile and we think we found something that'll make you smile too.  What started out as a Tortie in an appropriately named box...

Ended like this...

Our sisfur Sadie always sniffed us but she didn't like us sniffing her back!  Hee hee!  We find that very smile worthy and hope you did to!  Be sure to spread those smiles around and brighten someone else's day too!

Have a wonderful Sadieday and a great weekend!

Finally Friday

Yay it's Friday!  Even though we're not being locked in the bedroom/new home office anymore, we're still glad it's Friday especially since the noisy stranger won't be here today!  Wednesday evening Isabella inspected the progress and told him to pick up the pace...

Yesterday she hung out in the original home office/construction storage pit so she could keep an eye on him and make sure he got to work...

I hung out with Mommy playing with my fevver toy under the chair...

By the time he left last night, the floor was in place and so was this sign...

Clearly he knew that non-humans would be in to check out the progress.

So far so good and since the tile has to sit for a few days before the grout can be added, he won't be back until Monday!  Yay!  He even said he's ahead of schedule so double Yay!  

We hope you have lots to be happy about this Friday!

What's Happening Around Here...

We're still in the midst of a remodel but yesterday Mommy decided to leave the door open to the bedroom/new home office since the noisy stranger wasn't being too noisy and she was at her wit's end (whatever that means) with me being locked in with her. Anyway, it turned out that I was right, the door can be open and everything is okay. I stayed in the room with her but kept an eye on what he was doing. After awhile I just sat on the chair beside her and watched birdies... 

After Isabella woke up several hours later, we went downstairs and laid on our perch in the front window and enjoyed sunpuddles.  Mommy kept checking on us since she's such a worry wart.  All in all it was a much better day for everyone! 

 Rumor has it today the cabinet maker guy will be coming so I bet I'll be locked in again but I'm hoping the door remains open as often as possible since I seriously hate it closed. 

 Hope you're having a wonderful day!

Tortie Tuesday Flashback

Since Mommy has been too busy to take photos (which is a good thing), she's not been very helpful with our blogging (which is a bad thing) so we're going to do a flashback to a Tortie Tuesday from June 2011 when we were getting new floor coverings in the entire house so things were out of sorts then too.  Anyway, hope you enjoy this flashback!

*******************************

It's Tortie Tuesday! Today's lesson is to make the most of every situation you find yourself in. When I found myself in the middle of all these little wire squares I thought, hmmm, now what? Then I realized I can use these squares to workout my cute Tortie thighs...
This isn't easy, especially with my mommy giggling at every step I take!
I'm glad I turned the situation around into a workout to help my figure but I think I'll stick to squishy Tortie thighs from here on out! Mommy will just have to find somebuddy else to laugh at!

Have a Happy Tortie Tuesday!
Isabella

Weekend Wrap Up

I don't know about you but the weekend went by WAY too fast here!  Sure, unlike my little sisfur, I don't mind the noisy stranger and will sleep through the week but it's also nice to lounge with Mommy and Daddy on the weekends.  This past weekend though they were coming and going so much I didn't know which end was up...

They were talking about boring remodel stuff like paint samples and Mommy also worked on tax returns (again, boring).  She did make a journal that's going all the way to France.  How cool is that?   

Anyway, while not much exciting was going on at our house, our Grandma from Vegas was invited to dinner at a friend's house and it turned out to be a surprise shower for her new adopted doggy Dolly!  

Dolly got lots of pink toys and a new blanket and everything!  She sure hit the jackpot being Gotcha'd by our Grandma in Vegas!  Welcome to the family Aunt Dolly!

We hope you have a great week!  With everything going on around here, our blogging and commenting may be sparse but we'll do our best!

Spring Fever on Sadieday!

After days of rain we finally got some sunpuddles...

It's definitely given us spring fever since we love open windows!  If we could, we'd go on walks like our sisfur Sadie used to and see everything beginning to bloom...

We bet we'd be smiling too...

We hope you do something today that makes you smile!  Be sure to spread those smiles around since you never know who's day you'll change just with your smile!  

Hope you have a Happy Sadieday and a great weekend!

Finally Friday!

Normally I don't care what day it is but this week I'm very glad it's Friday because in a few hours the noisy stranger will be gone for two whole days!  I'm doing better then I was with being shut in but I still hate it and do what I can to get out while crying all day which drives Mommy bonkers.  (Believe me, it's a short trip!)  She tries to divert my attention by opening the door...

And the window...

I do sit still for a few minutes at least...

But I make sure to listen to every single thing that goes on on the other side of the door...

Oh, and in case you're wondering, Isabella is really catching up on her beauty sleep this week...

As soon as the noisy stranger leaves and we are sprung from the bedroom/now home office, I run downstairs and after a few minutes I come back up into the room with Mommy and eat and sleep.  I don't mind being in there as long as the door is OPEN!

Hope Friday goes fast and the weekend goes very slow!
