This week in kitten


















Maddy Lou and Gus loved spending the weekend with their Aunt Clare in Norcross, Ga.; everything but the beagles who they are still a bit unsure about. During the day while the dogs were in the yard, the kittens ran up and down the carpeted stairs non-stop and loved exploring every nook and crany of the spacious house. They have learned to treat it like a second home as I have. Their favorite pasttime, as these photos illustrate, is staring out or sleeping in the second story window sill in the guest bedroom. They have been able to see birds at eye level and look down at beagles and neighbors speaking a foreign language -- two sources of non-stop entertainment.
In interesting feline developments, Gus has gained almost a pound in the three weeks since I've had him and he has started cleaning Maddy (she has cleaned him since about day two.) They eat like ravenous bear cubs and love their toy mice covered in fake fur. Gus's are also changing from little kitten button eyes to real cat eyes of deep amber.

Happy Birthday Audrey Rose!

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today. Her mom, Angela, made this wonderful invitation for the occasion and has done an excellent job of documenting Audrey from a positive pregnancy test to her most recent milestone, taking her first steps, through her blog, My Daily Struggle . This is one well-documented and adored kid and I hope Angela and Papa Tim congratulate themselves on 12 months of excellent hard work. Audrey is a little superstar.

"It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand"

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill. The dog pants all the time like she can never quite catch her breath and outside it is just nasty. Even at midnight tonight it was still 85 degrees and a super sauna outside. I have an elaborate system of fans set up in the bedroom and it helps. Andi even has her own fan and she sleeps jacked up right next to it. To add insult to injury, K called me at work frantic last night, "THERE IS A POSSUM IN THE BASEMENT!" If that exclamation doesn't typify the deep south I d...
