Andy was frustrated because we wouldn't let him get to Bailey. He ended up getting kicked out of the house and couldn't think of anything else to do.
Upon our visit to the vet today, it was discovered that Bailey is a 'she' kitty. The vet didn't notice it at first either, but upon further investigation the discovery was made that we will be spaying Bailey instead of neutering her.
Being awakened from a compfy snooze in the laundry basket to be groped by a stranger wasn't Bailey's greatest expectation.
She might have had to take out her frustrations on my patio furniture.
Good thing Bailey is such a versatile name, huh?
My newest brew: Cranberry-Chai Iced Tea w/lime
First, brew a pot of drinkable iced tea - I use 1 Green Chai Tea bag and 1 Black Tea bag - makes about 1/2 gallon of tea after you let it sit a while in the steeping pot. I keep a container of this in my fridge most of them time and is good even with no added ingredients.
Then, get yourself some Cranberry Juice. I use the Diet (5 calories) since I am watching sugar intake. They also make a low-Cal style (40 calories) which has a lot less sugar and tastes great in drinks. Of course, there is always the regular, but the sugar is so high so be careful if you are watching sugar, calories or weight.
So, to make this tea, get a good sized tea glass. The one pictured here is 12 oz. Add about 1/2 cup of Cranberry juice, a squirt of lime juice (unsweetened is what I like), and then fill with your Chai Tea; all on the rocks, of course, with a twist of lime. This particular concoction has an added flavor; 1/2 a shot of Peach Schnapps, just to give it a peachy flavor, and not too many calories.
Tastes great after a day on the freeway, a hot day in the garden or or even during a thunderstorm.
Does anyone know if cicadas bite? Bailey was having a great time with this one, until when he pawed it once, it latched on and he squealed a funny kitten squeal. I just wondered if it bit him or only scared him. It was his first cicada. He found a giant stag beetle last week, but it was boring compared to this insect.
You're looking at a Happy Cat; a proud and strangely sappy cat.
This is how he spends our vacation. Yesterday he was on the tractor all day, today it is the mower and vacuum. It is strangely relaxing to mow the lawn, I usually do it, but he didn't give me a chance this time, he started before 7 am.
Meet Bailey, the new family cat.
Good name, it's about time. Sorry to Jen for having to override her vote. If it is any consequence, you may call him George Bailey for short. :-D
He seems to like his name pretty well, even when you call him "Bailey Savings and Loan."
I love a cat that knows his name.
I do! I got a new wagon to do the weeding and hauling. Pretty cool one too - I can pull it around by hand or attach it to the mower as a towable trailer.
Notice its size compared to a normal sized shovel.
Oh, and I dug up all the rose bushes - pooooh - I hate them.
Some of us like to do things that others seem to think are a bit 'geeky.' Now, why do you suppose people might say such horrible things?
We weren't the only ones who thought we looked good, either. In fact, Michelle and William won the costume contest at the Cerritos Borders (and $10 gift cards each), not as a couple, either. They were selected separately because Mad Eye Moody and Belatrix La Strange just looked so good.
Of course, we DID finally get what we went there for - just after midnight. We were some of the first in line.
