Mippies outies again!


Another lovey early morning, only today I got a little smarter. After enjoying the sunrise with my mippies outside, I started cleaning – before it gets too hot! I’ve swept the flat and the first load is in the machine. I’ve just had breakfast, and today I plan on finally uploading the photos which should have been posted on the 25th January!

Done! Third load in the machine, photos posted. Photos uploaded from the camera to the PC, next batch for blog selected. Fourth and last load in the machine, Fridays shopping re-packed and in the freezer – it all fit, and without squashing, so there should be no problem opening drawers! I also remembered to leave something out for tonight, i.e. tomorrow’s lunch.

It’s noon and too hot to move … sigh. Mippies concur, they’re flopped out everywhere. I’ve just hung the last load of washing, put the ceiling fan on in the bedroom and I’ll flop over the bed …

An hour later, it’s still hot, cats flopping everywhere … I had some fruit, my landlord gave me another three mangoes yesterday! I’ve reconnected my external hard drive, so I’m no longer restricted to just Doctor Who, if I want to watch something. Frankly, though, I don’t really watch much. I usually only switch the PC on just before I go to bed. Over the weekend I leave it on, but – apart from writing the blog – I also don’t do much. I’m not playing my game so much anymore, simply because I don’t really have the time. Pity, because I still enjoy it!

I haven’t unpacked a single box today, and what’s even worse: I don’t feel the least bit guilty! I keep going outside for a smoke, then coming back inside because it’s hot everywhere. Just one of those days – lazy and without pressure. I’ve done all that needed doing, so why push? I also haven’t put any plants from pots into the garden … However, I have posted all the photos from the past two months!

I watched the sunset and my mippies having fun! Lady Jane was chasing the revolving sprinkler, getting highly upset when she got wet! Mewthos watched Lady Jane and Ziva had found a lovely spot in one of the trees and watched all round everything. I didn’t want to end their fun, quite yet.

I went inside and made myself the last Brezel with Griebenschmalz. Halfway through dinner I decided it was getting too dark, it was past seven, so time to bring my mippies inside. Ziva was already waiting for the call and came in with no problem. Lady Jane was chasing something across the lawn outside my garden – she wasn’t coming; and I don’t know where Mewthos went … he didn’t respond to the ‘m’ word. So I decided one cat is better than none and went inside with Ziva and gave her yummy munchie! Then I shut the bedroom door and went looking for the rest of the clan.

I called the ‘m’ word again, and suddenly heard what sounded like a herd of elephants stampeding towards my house! Yeah, you guessed right: Mewthos! Top speed, right past me, inside, down the passage … skid: Door closed? I open the door and he rushes inside for munchies!

Lady Jane was being difficult. I don’t know what held her attention, but she paid no attention to my calls. I was just about to give up when she came running from afar … with a guilty conscience! She slinked past me and when she reached the closed door became quite anxious, trying to get out the kitchen, then hide in the lounge … I closed the front door, picked her up and scooted her through the door. She was behaving as if she expected a beating – which is weird, because I’ve never beaten my mippies!

Well, they’re all inside now, with their tummies full of yummies and their ears scratched and tummies tickled! Even though I napped at noon, I’m quite tired already, and it’s just gone past eight.

Funny thing happened while I was showering: Mewthos came sirening in and stood up against the shower door wanting to be let in! I opened the door, he stuck his head in and decided “Nah! Too much wet!” Ha Ha!
