Rantings, Ravings, and Ramblings
To enjoy it, I'm a fan but not a mega-fan like the host, who prepared by reading three books about the history and topography of Middle Earth
My sister's best friend sends her cheesy romance novels all the time,
@Anek . When she finishes a series, she rereads the LotR trilogy to "remember what good writing and story telling is".
When the opportunity came for a perfect midnight moment? We
had to take it!
Nobu is such a cutey pie!
You’ve got a cute bike.
I can’t ride a bike though
A really nice bike
Thank you, @Mamatigerj !
I'm feeling back to normal, thankfully!
Daily Exercise w EC
The day got away from me, but was productive!
Dad has a dinner party tomorrow night and we had to get everything for that
It's at the church, at least, so I don't have to clean the house
I'm going to my sister's on Saturday for games!
Looking forward to that!
Nox stayed on my bed as I got into it, but left as I settled last night
I count the win!
Good: early night (going up after I finish this
Happy: productive family time and plans with sister
Basics Yesterday and Today
I've returned to standing stretching for my splits
I need to limber things up before I can go back down as far
I've had a delightfully quiet day
It's always lovely to scrounge around for my own supper
Plans with my sister have been pushed to Sunday, but that will include my parents and lunch!
Dad's dinner went wonderfully, as well
A good day all around!
Good: relaxing day
Happy: even better day with my sister planned!
Basics
Another quiet day
Mom took Dad to a retirement party for one of her coworkers
They both had fun!
Nobu has been ignoring my lap for quite a few days now
It's aggravating, until he goes to Dad, when it becomes infuriating
My lap is even better than his! It extends!
Nox is either becoming more tolerant of me being in my bed, or this is a phase
I'll take it either way!
(Cats!)
Good: relaxed
Happy: sister tomorrow!!!
My lap is even better than his! It extends!
Hahahaha. Cats are weird.
Daily Exercise w EC (from December 25)
Period exhaustion hit me hard
Had a 2 hour nap that would have been longer if Nobu hadn't walked on my chest
That's one way to wake up!
Speaking of Nobu: he's been a brat
Complete and utter menace
Why?
He lost his last ball
(He broke all the others; I'm looking into dog toys to keep up)
He even knocked a full glass off the table!
Of course, then we found the ball and he's been an angel since
Cats!
Nox was on my bed this morning, though! That's great!
Good: didn't sleep the day away
Happy: I didn't have to deal with my brat while sleeping; silver linings!
Basics Yesterday and Today
I allowed myself to massively oversleep and haven't had to take a nap!
Tomorrow is laundry day, so we'll see how that goes
Plus, wind has the power flickering, which will be... fun... with the washing machine...
Nobu has been a bit of a brat, but only when he wasn't allowed cheese
Much better than yesterday!
The best is the cuddles he's been demanding!
This is my favorite of the pictures I took today
He is sleeping on my ankles, the weirdo, but he settled on my lap after that
He also stole my seat, so I forced him to share. He didn't love that, but stayed!
I'm absolutely adoring the attention!
Good: exercised
Happy: Nobu cuddles!!
I really hope I come back as a cat with a good owner in my next life.
Nobu is so cute, even in brat form! <3
Me, too,
@MadamMeow ! They seem to have the best lives! Cats get away with so much because they're cute. If they weren't, we wouldn't forgive them!
Nobu thanks you with nibbles, which he's rather partial to (especially when you're not).
Nice log chill and cosy
Thanks, @Deadoks !
Basics
No power outages! Laundry was successfully completed!
I see Tyler tomorrow and Bee on Friday
So looking forward to both!Nobu has been especially cuddly all day and I have complained only when I needed to get up
So unfair to disturb a happy kitten!
Of course, he did have to be a cat and choose the awkward spot
My lap is right there
He did eventually move to my ankles, and then stayed on the blanket after I moved, at least
He's a goofball, but my goofball, and that's all that matters
Fingers crossed on getting to bed early
Good: finally unclogged the tub
Happy: Nobu!!
Basics
Tyler was as wonderful as always
And Theo!!!
I was so happily surprised and got all the kisses!!
Such a good pup!
I am looking forward to seeing Bee so much
Had a favorite black bean burger for lunch that was as spectacular as usual
Then pizza for supper
It's been a good day!
I will be doing nothing tomorrow but exercising and seeing Bee
Love that the appointment is late enough I can get exercise in before seeing her!
Good: saw Tyler
Happy: NOBU CURLED UP ON MY LAP WHILE I WAS RECLINING!!!! (ahem. that was a first)
Theo is an absolute angel, @Anek , @Iron Valkyrie ! Pictures don't do him justice!
Basics
Bee worked me over so well
I couldn't explain how much better I felt, but she could!
'Like taking off a backpack of stress' was her wording and it fits so perfectly
My shoulders feel like shoulders again!
My kittens are full of love today!
I didn't want to get out of bed, and who can blame me??
Then Nobu insisted on cuddles
All 3! In one day!!
With minimal activity and great food, today's been excellent
Good: shoulders back to normal
Happy: Bee! Kittens!!
Basics
It's been another very lazy day
Needless to say, it's been lovely!
Between the fire, my lap full of a laptop, my shins covered by Nobu, and hot drinks, I've been toasty warm all day!
The county has a travel ban starting shortly because of snow and wind
It's not too bad here, thankfully
We may get more than 6 inches of snow tomorrow, though
Fingers crossed!
Here's Nobu, enjoying the fruit of multiple cats' labors. So many things fell to get this box on the floor
(They will do anything to get into a box, won't they?)
Good: allowed my muscles to relax after Bee's work
Happy: more Nobu cuddles!
Basics
We've spent today watching movies and keeping warm
No power or internet losses, thankfully
It's mostly windy with some snow
Visibility is low, but otherwise it's quiet and beautiful!
Not that we're going anywhere; the travel ban was extended
I took a nap and Nobu joined me!!!
He was baffled by my chest and almost left, but settled eventually
First time he's joined me while I was lying flat!!
I think my kitten is cold, too
More cuddles for me!
Good: power and heat
Happy: family and cuddles!
Your Kitten
is so cute!!!
Thank you @Iron Valkyrie !
Basics Yesterday and Today
I've not done much more than cuddling with Nobu and reading
A short trip to the store was bracing
It's times like this I am glad we no longer have to walk Liam
He would have been jumping to get outside
Cats just want to enjoy the warmth!
Nobu especially loves the fire
I see my sister on Thursday!
And Mom has a snow day tomorrow, which means a snug family day!
If the weather holds, it'll be 20 inches over about 24 hours
I'm looking forward to it!
Good: bought ingredients for a new recipe
Happy: cuddles! Snow! Sister visiting!
Happy Birthday
Absolutely love the kitties. And have a
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Ohhhh Happy Birthday
Happy birthday! Hope Nobu gave you extra cuddles!
Thank you, @Gandhalfit , @Fremen , @PetiteSheWolf , @GentleOx , @Nightg0ddess , @Anek , @roman , @Haleth , @graoumia , @Paix , @MadamMeow !
Basics Yesterday and Today
Yesterday we had a travel ban and clear streets
Today the streets and driveways have enough snow to cause sliding, but no ban
I didn't get 20 inches, but I got my snow! That's the important thing!
My birthday has been lovely!
My sister is still here and my kitten has given me cuddles!
(He's purring away as I type this!
Good: good food, great family time
Happy: family! kitten cuddles!

@JCU Happy {belated} birthday
Basics
Quiet day!
Did some laundry and got out for a short car ride
We've not had any new snow that stuck, but it's still cold enough to not have melted
Lovely to look at!
I'll try to remember to get a picture tomorrow
Nobu has not been cuddling, but has kept close
No complaints!
We did end up "holding hands" last night
My goofball!
Good: went outside
Happy: overslept and had a quiet day
Belated
Thank you, @NancyTree !
Basics
I got up early from a package delivery
Glad they rang the doorbell; wish it was not an hour before my alarm
Got a nap in, though!
Nobu lost his collar somewhere
We'll find it eventually
I got a picture!
This is mostly drift, the front has half this amount
Still a decent depth!
Good: rummaged supper
Happy: quiet evening to myself
Basics
Got to the store before the game
Then went to lunch in the center of the village
There were...so many fans...
I think I was leaning on Liam's loss last year, because my only thought to the game was thanks that it's over for the season
The cats were catting and cohabitating well today!
Still haven't found Nobu's collar...
They both enjoyed the fire until it got too warm
Casper is behind Dad and Nobu is in the shark
There's got to be a way to take a good picture of that...
Good: got to the store
Happy: ice cold water from the tap hits so well
Glad the snow was much less than that drift picture so you could still go out! Just wow.
Still love the kitties!
Basics
I had cuddles last night! Nobu sprawled
He moved after I jerked at his claws in my big toe
Still cuddled, but much more compactly
And then Casper joined me in bed again
Still no sign of Nobu's collar
Worse, the crease from it is filling in
I pet Nox earlier, not realizing it was him!
I did not oversleep nor have too much caffeine
I am so tired
Fingers crossed I go to sleep early!
Good: woke to an alarm
Happy: big salad with supper!
Pspspsps void kitties!
