tuesday

oops! (yes this is real -- and yes it still runs -- needless to say, he'll never get to borrow my atv)

I Hate Mondays....

Here is sleepy Nick -- this animal leads the life -- eats whenever he wants, sleeps where ever hi wants and well......

So my personal hockey rink turned into a personal rock yard -- 8 pails of rock on the parking lot and sidewalk --- no it will really hurt when I slip and fall -- can't wait for the rocks to dig into me!

Yahoo!

Sliding Diva

Okay, I got here --- I only fell once on my sanding duties --- I was warned upon my exit from the house -- and I forgot my camera at home. The parking lot is now my personal skating rink -- dual duty -- basketball court and hockey rink. $ 17,000 later ......

Ugh.

Sunday

I'm finding old pictures at home -- here is Nick providing the musical entertainment at the farmer's market === 5 (?) years ago. Here's the deal -- he no longer plays the clarinet and he's a whole lot taller. The good news -- same old truck and tent. It's a low budget operation!

Here's "red" -- when he was a nice young kitty --- adulthood turned him into a lean mean fighting machine. He has since relocated -- he was a traveling cat and well hasn't returned for several months.

Saturday

This is scary Nick --- I'm sure the talons were out and the fangs were showing ..... he has his moods.

This is nappy Nick -- no talons or fangs --- just spreading a lot more hair. His new favorite roost is the copier. I'm sure the repairman is less than happy finding his "fur" in the document feeder. Alas, yesterday was a "mouse" day -- so he's earning the $23 of cat food I bought on my shopping extravaganza. Now if the litter box would only change itself.

Friday

It was a wild New Years Day -- the annual shopping extravaganza --- cat food, coffee, t paper, etc. Then back to the office --- where Dad moved all of my snow piles to the front yard. Huge pile in the front yard -- but it's clean along the fence and parking. Usually it's hauled away -- but heavy equipment is not allowed on my new cement until it cures for a while longer. So, piles.

Thursday

So I thought I'd try a picture (or two) a day -- this oni is old -- the shrubs are short and the tree is still in the yard.... probably 2 years old......maybe 3 -- I'm home and more pictures from which to choose. Okay, curiosity sent me looking it was March of 2005 ... time flies.
