Tuesday is COLD

Mama said there was a note on the outside doors of our building this morning. "Warning, high winds. Make sure the door shuts." It was also very cold out. Low 50's. And now it is high 40's. Brrr. When mama camed home today she gave me some Stinky Goodness (chicken) and then when she made dinner, she gave me tunie juice! Yummm. And tonight I played with my Nip Ravioli thing in the middle of the floor. Mama was making fun of me, but couldn't get the camera out quick enough. I wiggled and squirmed and moved around till I was in the other room. Ha Ha!

I am soo spoiled. ::sigh::

Sorry you all have to wait about the surprise. But you do.

Mama has to go to the doctor again tomorrow for her toe. She is getting a ride, otherwise it would be three different busses there and three back. Yuck.

So, that's Tuesday. Oh, and she camed home with a red thing on her arm. A big red bandaid cause she gaved her blood today. She says think about giving blood, you beans. You can help save so many lives and it only costs you a little bit of your time.

And oh, yes. She told a nice lady on the bus about the Cat Blogosphere. She showed my mama a picture of her kitty. Dressed for Halloween. Think she would fit in? I do to.

Love, and keep warm,
brandi

Monday, Monday

Yup, the trees are changing. This weekend it was over 80 degrees. Now it's in the 50's. The windows are open a little bit so I can smell fall outside.

Mama has to give her blood away tomorrow (like in the past, she does this every couple of months cause she says it helps others who need blood). Then she goes to a doctor tomorrow and then a doctor on Wednesday for her toe. Whew. And we have a surprise for you that's coming later this week....
Suspense. Gotta love it.

love to all,
brandi

Yes, it has been a week since we posted. Mama has just been busy. Doctor appointment, errands, paperwork, a liberry run, and grocery shopping with one of her friends. A local church decided to celebrate their anniversary by giving little baskets of stuff away to the neighbors. So we got something called mouth wash (eww) and toothpaste, and some vitamin kinda stuff to drink for mama, and green beans for mama, and THREE cans of tuna. Yea tunie juice coming up. Mama took the basket and filled it with kitchen utensils and put it on top of the frigermater. And of course, mama has been spoiling me this week, too. So, there you have it. The last couple of days have been really hot and humid for October (it is now 81) so mama put the a/c back on. For me.

And, oh yes, even the grocery store had pink plastic bags for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Mama had a scare several years ago, but she is okay. We just recognize it is VERY important!

We are having a repairman coming tomorrow, Tuesday mama has to give away her blood again, and Wednesday she has to go to a podiatrist about her toe.

We will post some fall pictures from my windows soon.

Love to all, and a smoochie for my hansome Sugar Pie,

Sweet Sunday

Hi. This is a picture of my Sugar Pie, Mr. Hendrix. He had his first year blogiversary a couple of days ago. I am sorry I haven't commented about it. But I decided I needed to meow up about it. My sweetie is a gorgeous rescuded kitty (like me), who has a wonderful mama and daddy and a good home. He is courageous and sweet, kind and understanding and furocious (mama, how do you spell that?), and has become a great reporter for the Cat Blogosphere.

I am so honored to be his girlfriendcat.

Catch him on his own blog or at the Cat Blogosphere.

Thursday News

Well, the storm was short lived yesterday, but it still was better to be safe in the bathroom (finishing up the tuna Wiska's pouch). And today, I found out how GOOD the Nip Ravioli is. Mama gave me one (thank you, KC).

That's it. Lovely fall day. Nip dreams.... Cuddling with mama... Sending smooches to my sweetie... Sunshine....

Love,
brandi

PS. I wanted to say happy birthday to Mu Shu but puter didn't let me:(
Hope he had a wonderful day!

Wow!

My mama came back from the liberry today with some new books and not one but TWO packages for ME!! How cool is that?

Thank you KC, and thank you Parker!! Toys (already played with the feather toys) and foodies ( I already had the Wiskas tuna pouch), and catnip and even stuff for my mama.

It is starting to storm again, so mama said it's time to turn off the computer. I am heading for the bathroom again (and finish licking my Wiskas out of the bowl).

Thank you again, you sweet ladies!

Love,
brandi

Checking In

Mama had a doctor's appointment yesterday afternoon. Her clinic is still in our old neighborhood, with all the cool old buildings and flowers and stuff. It was really hot and muggy. She left the a/c on for me.

On the way home she decided to pick up some groceries. It was supposed to storm, but it hadn't yet, and one grocery store is 10 minutes away by bus, on our busline. So she did her shopping, and when she left, the rain was just starting. In ten minutes it was really coming down, and I mean really hard. From the bus to our building is not that far, but she was soaked. So after she put the groceries mostly away, she had to get out of all those soaked clothes. Then my smart mama was rapped up in her favorite flannel robe, eating dinner, and then drinking hot cocoa. And, then, of course, cuddling me. And the a/c was off.

Today is kinda gray, and cooler. Lots of naps. One window is open a little bit for fresh air. And it's 55 degrees out! And, oh, yes. There is room on the rocking chair for ::blush:: my sweetie.

love to all, of course,
brandi

Sweet Sunday

Mama had to open the blinds and push them away cause with the windows open and the wind going crazy, the blinds were flying and making a lot of noise in here. She also got a couple of new pictures (and, yes, one was submitted to the Calendar!). But here are two others that she took, including one of my friend Fraxie (at last). She sits looking over my cat lounger most days.....

and she's my bestest friend. Mine is sort of in shadow, but that's cause of the sun from the window.

Hope your weekend has been good. I hear we are in for storms again. And right now fall has started and it's 84 degrees out. Doesn't smell like fall or feel like it.

Love, and hi to my Sugar Pie, the dashing reporter! Oh, yah, that's Mr. Hendrix to all of you,
brandi

Friday Update

Well, gee. Last night we had a really bad storm. It was booming and flashing and raining real hard. Mama said she was very proud of me, cause I went right to the safest room (the bathroom) until she brought me out when it was over. Well, with a room with my foodies and my water and my litter box and a nice rug to lay on, doesn't that make sense? Duh!

The picture of Fraxie has her face all washed out, so mama will try to capture her again. But mama has some nice pictures of me. This one is my favorite.

or maybe this one

or even this one, which is my rocking chair picture

You decide!

Have a good Friday night!

Love, and of course a smoochie for my sweetie,

Thursday Stuff

Well, I got asked how I became brandi. Well, that was simple. It's my name! You see, when I picked my mama out (Yes, I did. She walked by me several times at the adoption place at the Petco and I talked to her each time, saying "pick me, pick me" and she finally did) and she brought me home, she and a couple of her friends sat on the floor with me and tried to think up a name for me. One of the lady beans ( her name was Robin, by the way, and she is a nice lady and now has a nice woofie named Maggie) said my name and I went over to her and purred. Mama said my name and I went over to her. So she decided that was my name. Well it was, duh. So that's how I became brandi. I always was.

We had our foomigation and it wasn't bad. I sat on my wicker basket and the nice man came in and was done in a tiny bit of time. We found out one of the neighbors has buggies. Yuck.

Tiger Lilly gave me a Nice award. I am sooo honored. Thank you! You are nice, too!
Later today I will have more pictures, I think. Oh, and Fraxie (my Squillion friend) has finally allowed a picture to be taken.

Love to all, and a smooch for my Sugar Pie,
