Wowsers… what a day.  So busy but didn’t seem to get a thing done with all the rain.  Our lake is up 2 1/2 feet in just a week’s time with all the rain and it should rise again with today’s deluge.

Remember the playdate tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. EDT.

Muffin is fine after having her tooth removed.  This is the second time she has had to have one removed.  The first time was about two years ago.

The babies are equally as fine.  Excessively fine.

Rain, rain…..  OK… I’m getting tired of it!  Eight inches of rain in a neighboring county… I certainly hope it flows down and into my lake!

Muffin has a bad toothache.  She has to have her tooth removed tomorrow.  Poor baby!

On to the pics!

Rain, rain…. can’t complain.  We are in desperate need of the rain.  Keep it comin!.

Massively busy day set for tomorrow — right here at home.  I’m having a throwing away day — dump… Goodwill… Salvation Army…  THEN… painting the living room which may run into Sunday.  If the kitties have new olive green spots on Sunday night, just get used to them!!

Speaking of kitties:  (Click on the pic to see larger shot.  Sorry, I’m rushing this up!)

Mother’s birthday today so we had a small birthday party for her.  My sisters family came down.  It was a good day!

Muffin is currently snoring away and the babies are in the back of the house as usual.  We played pretty hard so they are probably sleeping.  Race starts at 7:43… hopefully rain has stopped.  Go Tony!!!  On to the pics:

GO TIGERS!!!!  We’re home watching the Clemson/Georgia Tech game.  We scare the kitties when we yell.  Sorry, kitties!

Muffin’s 14th birthday was yesterday.  I remember going to the Animal Shelter and choosing Muffin over her sibling because she was quiet and her sister was barking her head off.  It was a fake-out!!   But Muffin was just a big white furball mainly.  I immediately took her to my vet, where there was a new vet doing his internship… Bobby Long… gosh, he was gorgeous!  LOL!  Bobby checked Muffin out and Muffin reached up and gave Bobby some tongue sugar.  I was so jealous!

Anyhow, Muffin and I went to Brittany’s school to pick her up.  She was in third grade.  I told her I had a surprise for her in the car.  When we got to the car, I reached in a picked up Muffin.  “You got me a dog?” Britt said with the greatest wonder in her voice and eyes.    She held the furball and then said, “It is a dog, isn’t it?”.

Muffin has been such a blessing to our family.  I know we won’t have her much longer – hopefully God will grant us another year or two – but we will shower her with love for as long as she is with us.  We already had Alexander English (Alex) and Michael Jordan (Joey) when Muffin joined our family.  She got along famously with them both.  We knew she would do well with Jack, Skipper, and Addison from the get-go and we were not disappointed.

So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Muffin Calliope!!

Happy Labor Day!   The babies were weighed right after the playtime.  Addison weighs 6.5 lbs; Skipper is up to 9 lbs; and Jackson topped the scales at 10 lbs!  Addi’ metabolism keeps her slim and trim!

I'm just so happy you visit us every week!!!

May I just say…. AAAAAHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thank you.

I didn’t walk into the house until around 9:30 and had to immediately walk Muffin.  It’s been a very busy day.  But, it was PAYDAY!  Bright spot of the day!  The babies were in the playroom and running up and down the hall when I settled in.  When I picked up Cletus, Jackson ran back to the playroom, because for some reason, he thinks he can only play with Cletus in the playroom!  And someone decided to spray the floor with kittie litter… a HUGE amount of kittie litter!!!!

I'm just hanging around...
