Sunday snooze

Say, does it look like we have a lot of blankies? Yup, we do.  Pink, yellow, green, white, Native American design, not to mention three throws ( silver, purple, and blue and white with loons),  and a couple of afghans, and the quilt, and a Wedgewood cover for the daybed, plus a couple of blankies that are just my own. Whew.
Not even mentioning the pillows around this place! More than all my toes!
Just sayin.

biggie-fy my lovely face.  You know you want to.... tee hee.

Saturday Stuff

Here's a picture of me in one of my yoga poses.  Let's touch your tail, two three!

I got mama this morning.  When she woked up I was on the bed, too.  I don't normally sleep on the bed with her very often.  I usually sleep in my room and come bug her if she sleeps too late (I am hungry or thirsty). But she had the window cracked open, so I had curled up by the neat smells of outside to sleep. Then when she woked up, I walked up to her and demanded rubbies.  THEN, water and foodies.
I am so spoiled.  It's my right as a kitty cat!
It is beautiful out.  But a couple of days ago it was in the 60's and now it is back to the mid 30's. But the sun is still warm through the windows and the little crisp breeze is so refreshing!
Still no news about the remodel finish.  Only verbal stuff:  "we'll post you on the list" kind of non definite promises. Pfffttt.
I think mama has to do some errands soon.  Hope that means good stuff for me. Tee hee.
Hope your weekend is sweet.
love and purrs,
brandi

Monday Monday

Well, mama hasn't put everything back in the pantry yet.  She has to finish that today.  Most of the food is put away, but there are still other things like crock pots and stuff that haven't been put away.  And we haven't heard yet about whether our kitchen will be done this week. Cross your paws!
Mama has to go to the doctors tomorrow so I will be home alone when the fire inspectors come. I think they come to inspect a couple of times a year, or something.  And we just got a new system this year, so they are being careful with us. It is kinda cool. They can make announcements on it and everything.  Last week they told the whole building that the boiler was out for a short time, but would be back and not to worry.  That was pretty cool for a 25 story building! The assistant didn't have to run around and post signs on every floor and stuff.
It's another warm day.  Right now it is 45 degrees out fahrenheit. Did I spell that right? Anyway, spring is deffinitely sticking its toes in our part of the country!

Saturday

It finally cooled down in here! Yea! We had to leave windows open most of the night.  Mama finally closed one by my daybed in the middle of the night.  But one is still open!
I was very smart last night.  I slept on the puter chair. By the fan.
The hamm pizza was good. And mama had the pineapple and fruit is good for beans! Right?

Mama's Birthday

We had to get up early today for the maitenance people. And go up to the 25th floor.  Mama brought my water and my Dentabites and her Glucerna.  They had diet Coke for her up there. I wasn't happy to be put in my PTU, but after a couple hours got used to it.  It's a big one--large enough for me to stretch out in and still have my water bowl. Mama read and watched the fog roll in. The lounge is on the other side of the building, so it was fun to watch.  It rolled on and on until we couldn't see more than two blocks! We were up in the clouds!!
It still is really hot in the partment. And we have windows open and a fan running, and we have been here a couple of hours! Whew! I am staying in the shower, where the floor is cool. I'm dictating this to mama.  But really, don't worry about her.  The puter is in line with the fan!
But she said it was a real pain plugging everything in again.  And this weekend she has to put everything back in the pantry and closets. Ow! Better her than me.
The best part of the day? There is stuff in front of the microwave and stove, so she decided to order PIZZA! Yup, I get my hamm pizza.  She gets to eat the pineapple.

News (we hope)

Firstest, I started shedding, so that means spring is coming. Yea! Secondest, we had thunder today. And rain. So that means spring is coming, too.
Oh, and they are coming into the partment tomorrow for our heat treatment. And we hear they are coming to complete our remodel next week! We can't wait!  Just think of all the extra tubs we can play in.  Mama said I could have a party when it's all done!
Oh, and mama took this cool picture of me.  Very princessy.
And oh yes, mama's birfday is tomorrow and she is old happy about it. We get to spend the day together up in the lounge on the 25th floor!
I just hope they don't reschedule again.
love,
brandi

We're still here

Sorry we haven't posted, but several things are happening here.  They have raised the rent and declared we owe back rent, the kitchen keeps getting not completed, the manager hates me and dislikes mama's books in the partment, mama has had several medical problems and medicine problems to name a few.
We don't want to burden you all with our problems, so we are taking time off from blogging. We have been accused in the past of demanding help, and that is definitely not what we are doing.  So, in order to not drag our problems on line for someone else to "fix"  or to depress anyone, or even ask for sympathy, we have chosen to take a break. We miss you and love you all.
brandi, Fraxie, Maxie, Paxie and mama Carol
ps.we deleted some comments by accident, and I am upset with mama for doing that. We appreciate the kind thoughts. We will return shortly.  We recovered a couple, but they came as anonymous. Well, at least mama tried.
love,
 all of us

Update again

Still a delay on the last of the rehab and mama and I are getting really sick of this. She has  doctor appointments tomorrow afternoon, and believe it or not, we are supposed to have our annual inspection on Friday.  Still messed up, still living squished, and even though everything exposed is clean, we will not pass inspection.  It won't be our fault. But still, they could wait till we are done.  Mama is going to tell them tomorrow that when the rehab is done, within 1 week we will have everything back to normal. Hope that does something. We have a new cleaner/organizer, and she even said we can't do a lot of cleaning or sorting until things are back in place.
She did take one look at our pantry (still doorless) and spent a little time on it, and it is wonderful.  Can't wait till she can help with the rest of the place.
The living room has room for the office chair in the middle. It is surrounded by furniture. The bedroom, my bedroom, well, I am the only one who can reach my footstool and bed.  We have at least 7 tubs and trashbags full of kitchen stuff, alone. 
Like I said, we are getting really sick of this.
love,
brandi 
ps. the good news is our building is going to have cards for the laundry.  No more hunting for quarters. Mama can just add money to the laundry card with her debit card.  Cool. That alone was worth her going to the residents meeting last night.

We're still here

I know we haven't been  blogging much, but lots has not gone on here.  I mean there is a delay in the remodel and we are what my mom calls living out of a suitcase. Everything is squished together. So I am sitting right by mama and making her do this. 
Mama put a fleecy blankie on the daybed, and it is very nice for naps. She has had some doctors appointments and stuff. And we have a new cleaner-declutterer coming. We are both healthy right now and what else.  Oh, we won some awards but mama isn't spending much time on line, so they will be posted soon. Thank you to those who gave us the awards.  We haven't forgotten.
love to all,
brandi
