Why Nothing Ever Gets Done Around Here

Halloween!

I adjusted the blog a bit in case no one noticed. I like the holiday themes. :)

Monstah Monday: Spider Queen

Yesterday I worked on getting our Halloween decorations up. We have one that is a giant spider web. Cherry and Woody were very interested in it. I think Woody only cared about it because the cat was playing with it. Cherry was stalking the corners of it while I laid it out and Woody just kept walking through it, getting tangled, and then trying to pick it up and carry it away.

While I was putting it up, Cherry followed me and was trying to walk away with the end of it. It was the cutest thing. I only got a video of her trying to pull it down. I wish I had one of the whole process. It was pretty comical. Woody wasn't very happy about not being involved. Just as a note, he's not allowed upstairs or on the stairs at all.

From now until I take it down she will continue to pull at it. I had to fix it so many times last year.

Great News!

So I got my driver's license Thursday! Today I took Woody for a drive. I bought him an Easy Walk harness and went to test it at a local park. Yeah...it didn't work. Woody didn't give a damn if it squeezed his legs together. He just kept pulling. I wish I had brought his other harness, but I totally forgot. It would have been a lovely walk if I remembered his harness. You should have seen me walking him. It was probably hysterical.

And yesterday Woody helped me clean out the truck I now share with my brother. By help I mean got scared when I started vacuuming and just got in the way. He would not give up the passenger seat. 

I finally convinced him to hang out in the back seat.

Now for the sake of mentioning the little demon, I went into the kitchen to bake a pie and saw this out of the corner of my eye:

Look at that face of evil. 

I have no idea where she dragged that thing from. She probably had it stashed away somewhere.

I Love the Colder Weather

Ok, I always tell people I hate winter, but that's because of the snow. Fall is by far my favorite season minus school starting. Since getting Cherry, the cold weather has become a 1000 times better. Why?

She cuddles.

Cherry was so cuddly when I first got her. Within a few hours of bringing her home she was already curled up in my lap sleeping. It was adorable. I used to fall asleep with her cradled in my arm. She also used to wake me up trying to crawl under my blankets with me.

She isn't that snuggly anymore, but she still cuddles. In the summer it's pretty rare, but now that the weather is getting colder she has become a cuddle monster. I love the comfort of falling asleep to her kneading my side or having her sleeping on my feet or back. It makes me feel safe and warm.

I now dub this cold weather as 'kitty snuggle weather'.
