Crisp Air, Cat Hair and Crankiness

Did you ever have one of those weeks that was so overly busy, you didn't have time to sleep? I just finished one of those. And this morning as I headed to work, I realized how exhausted I was. I pray I'm nice today, and not cranky because I'm so sleep deprived. I think I am typing to stay awake!! HA!!
I'm sure Romeo thought I was living somewhere else, and just showed up to feed and brush him. Poor kitty. By the way - he hates to be brushed. He tolerates it, a little; but he hates it. I can get a couple of strokes in, and then he gets up, moves about 3 feet and lays back down. So I scooch across the floor, start the brushing again, and without fail, he tolerates about 3 or 4 strokes, and moves again. It's like a game we play across the living room floor. But because he is so blessed with wonderful fluffiness, I have to brush him quite often. One would think he might be used to it by now, but no. Perhaps his previous owners did not man the brush as often.

Regardless of the cat hair, Monday has arrived, and I need a nap. I have my doubts about today's productivity. I will rely heavily on my trusty co-workers, and slightly on the rest of them! It is a beautiful morning, though. Blue skies, sunshine, crisp Colorado air. We've had crazy weather this spring and summer. It's not been typical at all. It's been very mild - usually July is hot, well into the 90's or even to 100. Not this year. We've had a couple of 90 degree days, but this weekend probably didn't even break 82. But praise God, it's always beautiful here in Colorado. I believe that if God ever took a vacation, He would come to Colorado!! Have a great week friends! Know that God reigns - and He loves us so much!

  1. Hey girlfriend!

    I've enjoyed your hiking photos...so very gorgeous...you are so blessed to live in colorful Colorado - I certainly miss it sometimes...particularly in the Summer...particularly THIS Summer.

    Hey, I got your photo of Arnold Pete...he's such a patient, sweet soul, sitting there all cute and cuddly. I'm glad he keeps you company... BTW, I hardly ever check that byoung_27 email anymore...that's why I haven't replied...I just saw it a couple of days ago. I'm a notoriously slow reply-er anyways, but you may want to change me over to bschultea at yahoo dot com for a shot at getting a reply in the same month <*insert sheepish grin*>

    LOL about brushing Romeo...you're a good kitty-Mom! Hey, did you ever have anymore interesting flowers pop up in your yard..?

    Take care sweet friend - and know you are loved!! Belated thank you for the Anniversary card...you really have a ministry of card-giving...you're awesome!

    Love and many hugs!!
