Morning Muffins!
So. A few weeks ago, some of you noticed my reference to 'The Cat' and e-mailed to say you didn't know we have a cat. Well, we don't. But we do appear to have a cat living with us. This is Boo. (Trying to help me take a photo of a card, actually.)
Sometimes, Sweet Cheeks has a little snooze in the car and if I think he needs it, I'll leave him in the car, go inside for a magazine to read while I sit on the doorstep, until he wakes, or I wake him up.
One afternoon, a few weeks back, whilst reading a magazine on the doorstep, I heard a rather pitiful little miaow, and, Boo appeared. He came over and said hello, before going to have a look inside. There are quite a lot of cats in our neighbourhood, and it's not unusual for them to wander in, if we have a door open. And being a cat girl, I don't really mind.
Seven hours later, Boo was still inside! Even though it was raining, that night, and quite a few nights after, I put him out the front door when we went to bed. Only to find him, waiting desperately by the back door, in the morning, having been, very obviously, out all night.
So, we bought him some cat food, (well, you can't feed them honey roast ham and milk forever!) and we keep letting him out and he keeps coming back. Sweet Cheeks is delighted, Very Understanding Hubby likes that I am now completely outnumbered by boys and I have someone to keep my feet warm at night!
Before I hop off, I just want to thank you all for your lovely comments. Things are so hectic right now. The day is full of work at the new house and when the boys are safely tucked in bed, I'm in The Bat Cave, either making something or writing about making something. It's really nice to sit down for a few minutes and read all your comments, somewhere between phew, finished and starting next job! I'm sorry if I'm not stopping by so much at the moment, but I am trying to get round at least once a week. Sometimes the jelly bean juice just runs out too soon...
