Bwaaahaaahaaahaa! My mippies really are a clever
bunch! They’ve caught on to the latest trick of getting them off my chair –
last night, they wouldn’t go to the kitchen to clean my ice cream bowl! I
thought maybe I can give them a taste of it, they’ll follow … nope! I ended up
holding the bowl for them, all three sitting in the chair, while they cleaned
it! And then they settled back in the chair! I had to lift them out, one by one,
to get a turn to sit in it!
Mewthos wasn’t happy about that, he kept wandering
around, trying different places – he was only happy when Lady Jane got up and
he took her place by Ziva on my desk chair! And Lady Jane? Well, she decided
that she’d like more cuddles! She came and settled on my chest – I had to
slouch down to make it comfy for her! She settled down for good! I had to lift
her off to go to bed!
When I did get to bed, mippies followed! I had stayed
up quite late, only went to bed at midnight, so I was too tired for games –
Lady Jane mipped insistently for more cuddles, though, so I created a cuddle
cave for her. When she decided she was happy, Ziva mipped for her turn! She
needs more assurance, I need to actually pick her up and carry her into the
cuddle cave. She is not as confident as the mini’s, yet. I’m working on that,
though. When she walked off happy, I could finally go to sleep – which didn’t
take me long.
And yet, I woke up nice and early! I got up around
seven, coffee and breakfast – I baked up a fresh bread! Yummy!
Mippies got all excited hearing a major cat fight
outside! I looked out the window, but couldn’t see anything – Rose was at home,
so I knew Frankie was safe, or she would have come outside. I guess Felix is
attacking poor Romeo again! I remember yesterday I picked a claw out of Romeo’s
fur! I didn’t go outside to break it up, since it was too early for my clan to
go out.
Today is extremely windy! I’ve had to close the
window! Skies are blue on one side, but there are clouds blowing in from the North
West. My head is clear, no pressure, and no discomfort.
The minis were being a nuisance, Lady Jane so keen on
more and more cuddles – I decided to take them outside for a while! They ran
downstairs eagerly! I took care of some wilted Cosmos, wilted carnations and
filled two more pots with flowers from the garden. I added Tecoma logs to the
flower pots where I could, as well as some of the fertilizer and I even found a
few handfuls of compost!
When I cut the dead carnations, I was able to pull the
last supports from the garden – so I collected them all and tied them up neatly
for transport. I didn’t really want to fill too many flower pots to be
transported, but there is such a lot in that garden which can be transplanted –
it would be such a shame to leave it to die or be killed! And I’ve already
plonked into every available gap, there’s nowhere left where they’ll be safe!
As soon as I went back upstairs, both minis followed!
Ai ai ai! Mewly stood up against my leg, and since I’m wearing shorts, his head
disappeared! Ha Ha! Getting into my pants is not very polite, Mew-mew! I went
and sat on the lawn for a bit, so he could get his lovies. He likes to throw
himself at me, rather than being held tight.
After a while I hear Rose is back from her
gallivants, she spent the day with her daughter, who in turn is enjoying a
rare holiday! While they were selecting cuttings, I watered my garden – making sure
that Mewthos can see what I’m doing! Ha Ha! I don’t want him sitting forlorn on
the lawn next to the tap again tonight!
I received two more SMS confirming pet micro chip
registration, so now all three are officially registered.
I’ve cleaned the kitchen and folded the laundry – in terms
of packing, I only packed in the garden – the short night is catching up with
me and I’m getting rather tired. I’m not up to doing any boxes today. I’ll
probably do some tomorrow.
The wind today is really unpleasant, it is so strong,
it keeps lifting the lid to the attic! It’s uncomfortably cold in the wind outside,
even Ziva has come in now. Let’s hope I’ll have no trouble with them again,
when I want to shut the door!
No trouble getting my mippies in tonight! Good thing,
too! I’ve got a bit of a headache from overtiredness, bed at nine tonight!
