The Cat Dish Rules

I slept in this morning--well almost. India Ink decided that she would not put up with it unless I first filled her dish. There I was snuggled under my duvet half awake and half in dream world when I felt whiskers tickling my nose and cat breath on my face. She walked over top to get to the other side of me--four times. Then she jumped off the bed and began circling it. "Mrrrrwt? Maaaooow. Rrrrrt, rrrrrrt." I finally threw an unused pillow at her, but she saw it coming and side stepped it with ease. Then she returned to my bed to sit on top if me. "CAT!"

I filled Snowflake's and India's dishes, stoked the stove and returned to bed. It was 9:30 (!!!) when I finally got up. I'm sure the last time I did that I was sick in bed!

Shopping went well yesterday. I'm still not done with my Christmas gifting, but I need to regroup, check my lists and my purchases and decide what to do next. Today I think I'll spend time writing some Christmas cards. It is another dreary day here. We've had very little sunshine this fall. I'd rake leaves under another of our big maple trees (the one with the swing hanging in it beyond the garage) if we ever had dry enough weather to do so. Oh! I also want to wrap the outside light post with greens and Christmas lights. Donna, did you ever send me the email on how to post a picture? I need to figure that one out.

So, off I go at 10:00 to eat some breakfast and start my day! LOL! I've usually done half my day's work by now :-).

Enjoy your Saturday!
