Good morning everyone!
It's back to school, work and the beginning of a short week. The agency kitties are a bit sluggish from the long weekend of partying and keeping up with the MCW Tour 2009 so I've brought in Panera. Belly up to the buffet and snuggle a kit and welcome the day.
I'm having some hot chai and perfectly warmed cheese danish.
Stop in and say hi before starting your day :)
Hi Lainey, I was about to turn the puter off and head to bed when I saw you had opened the cafe up for the day shift. I'll join you in the hot chai, it's a tad chilly here tonight. I won't have any agency kits as Shadz has the sneezes and one gooey looking eye. I'm beginning to wonder if she has the feline version of hay fever. KK said her Dara is similar.

Good Morning, give me one of everything and a warm kitten. I am so tired I can barely hold my head up!

Morning Lainey and evening, MS, I am in such a good mood, my work is going very well, must be about time for something to go badly wrong, lol...
How are you both today? It was a gorgeous day here, was it a gorgeous day in the BOP, MS? Poor Shadz, give her some scritches from me. It is cold at night and frosty in the mornings but it sure makes for some nice days!
I hope to get my brick path (phase one) finished tomorrow, yay!
Hi, MC, sorry to hear you're so tired. Do you have another day off today? I hope so. Is that from all the travelling and the MCW excitement?
It was a beautiful day in the BOP today Jcat, as you say chilly nights but the days a just grand. I'll give HRH the scritches when she comes up to hog the bed. Just as well there will only be the two of us in it as Mr MS is away working on site again.
MC,are you so tired because of the wonderful time you had with MCW and the others?

Yes it is all the excitement and NO I do not have off today. Actually I am already LATE for work! OOPS

No Jcat, he opted out of night shifts this time but it does mean that he's living away from home again. This time only for about a month but home most weekends I believe. He is actually staying in the same town as Meegz fiancee Andrew so they are planning on getting together for a meal sometimes along with Mr MS's nephew who is Andrew's best friend and work mate too. At the moment Meegz and I have been 'abandoned' by our men.

Not only that Jcat but the future SIL has been like another son in Mr MS's brother's family. The strange thing is he and Meegz did meet several times over the years as kids, but never remembered each other. Cupid kept them apart until the time was right.

Morning all! a quick chat before I head out the door to w**k!...... Good weekend, we're pretty much moved in, now I just have to "unpack" 15 years worth of stuff (ick!).... but I have plenty of time to do so..... I'm finding stuff I haven't seen for a year, and didn't really miss!...... Abby and Cuddles have settled in, they used the cat flap like pros and love having the porch to go out to...... Cuddles REALLY enjoyed seeing Daughter this weekend, she was home to do laundry and get money!
..... sounds like the MCW tour is in full swing, and everyone enjoying themselves!.... please keep the pics coming, I wish you all the best and safe trips!......
Weather finally getting nice down under?...... I'm jealous! you guys go into Spring, and we slip into Fall!....
The number of things and places they have in common has really surprised them. They actually lived over the fence from each other at one stage but never saw each other, Andrew installed the kitchen in the first flat Meegz lived in and did some work at one place she worked in. They never really crossed paths until her cousins wife who she went to school with invited her to New Year's Eve party. The rest is history. Add to that the fact I was at primary school the same time as his Father and it gets spookier.
Time for me to go and fill the hot water bottle and curl up with a good book then sleep. Goodnight Jcat, and have a great day everyone else.

Nighty-night, MS, sweet dreams, and have a lovely day tomorrow!
AV, I'm hoping to get at least one tree planted tomorrow. A very nice woman in Masterton gave me a great tip -- the Hansells factory up the road (they make food flavourings) gives away its old food containers -- 20 litre plastic drums. You can get little taps to fit them from farm supplies stores, fill them up with water and then put them beside new trees to dripfeed them... You only have to fill them up once every three weeks or so. Beats watering the garden every day! I picked up six today.
Good Morning! Good Evening!
Night MS!!!
Tired today..just from getting up with Abbie during the night..then I was on the couch after feeding Abbie at about 3am and I hear this sound that scared the life out of me. Fred looked up...Cricket ran to the window to look out on our porch..It sounded like someone trying to break in or something on our front porch..There was another loud sound..So I look out another front window and I see the covering of one part of our eves came off(it's metal so that hitting the porch made that sound) then...I think I see something coming on the porch..sure enough it's a small raccoon..so i don't know if he was trying to get in or out of the baffles or what...don't know if there were anymore either...wonderful....
I get to meet up with MCW, Andy, Siobhan, MCM and Vicki today!!! I love Macaroni Grill too!!! YUM

Ooh, CM, that would have been really scary. I called the cops once when I heard strange noises on the front porch. They looked at the wet pawprints and deduced it was a dog, lol... But it gives you a terrible fright.
Hope you have a wonderful time today! Eat loads for me (especially pudding)!
Commiserations, Kilroy. It stinks when everyone else is on holiday and you're not :(
((Kilroy)) I know that feeling. Work or not, there are some days meant to stay in bed!

Bye AV!! Have a good day.
I plan to eat some Tiramisu jcat..That is my favorite and it's the best there..YUMMY!!!! I will eat the first bite for you :)

Good morning! I, too, have the "back to work" blues this morning. I really enjoyed having the extra day off. Thankfully, it's a short week so that I can adjust to working full weeks again for awhile.
