Good Morning LL!!
(Ahhhhhh.... elixir! Thanks Elsa~), and Happy Catmint Caturday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, KBP, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! GUESS WHAT! Paw Prints Pizza is open and ready for business! They are running a Caturday Catnip special today, in honor of Catmint Caturday - lots of nip in those pies! They have even used their signature nip cheese.
Best order early! They is off to curling practice at Rusty's soon.... so don't delay! so. well. anyways.
Coffee time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and Double shot espressos, with beans from deep within the mountain slopes of Africa, AND.... for all my Mocha fans: a venti quad peppermint white chocolate mocha, with peppermint infused whip, garnished with peppermint candy chips and white chocolate shavings... It is my bean's fav! SWEET! OH! No worries, a dollop of peppermint and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, sprinkled with peppermint chips and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good! TJ's dunking cookies and Cronuts too!
I hope everyone had a great day yesterday. It was a good one here yesterday. It was very much a pool day here yesterday. My DSIL Connie was able to watch William so Nicholas and I could go swim. YAY! We were able to have a morning swim on a FR, and I didn't have to be out late on a Friday night. Nicholas had such a great time in the pool, he always does. Bring on swimming at the Lynnwood Pool! The energy level is endless. I sure wish I had half of what he does. We closed out the session, which is becoming the norm for him. It was nice to be able to spend time with my DMIL after we swam. She is supportive of all the boys whims, Nicholas had a great time hanging out for a few with another one of his grammie's. A long nap followed the visit. requested by me, unwilling conceded by Nicholas. When I heard from him that he still wanted to swim at night at the Mountlake Terrace pool. A nap was so so needed before we tackled another swim session. He did though, and fell sound asleep: swimming is, after all, hard work! This is what I wrote late last night about the day: "well here it is almost 9:30,., and once again on a FR night I am just walking in the door. ;-) Who would have really thought that the little guy would have wanted two swim sessions in one day. But he did, his choice, he brought it up. Seems he feels that FR nights are now swim nights, at the Terrace Pool. :lol: :lol: i really didn't mind, so off we went for another session in the pool tonight. non-stop go for both sessions. crazy. he had such fun though, both times. I bet he sleeps well tonight." One of the tings that is so fun about these Friday night swims is the Burger Fest that we have after pool time. Nicholas has come to love it. We dig into cheeseburgers, and french fries, shakes and chocolate cupcakes. There is something to be said for sharing food like that after a busy swim time, in the car, in the dark, with only the dome light on. Great times!
Normalcy in MusketeerVille!
What to say about the kitties.... They have been good kitties, and even Lola! Well sorta on Lola... Lola will always be Lola. she still helps me shower: lots of shower door pounding, and sitting on the towels, warming them up for me. :lol:
When I got home last night I watched Bug continue to maneuver Lola into runs and romps. That is so fun to watch. There was nothing amiss when I got home, just kitties waiting at the top of the stairs. They seem to have adjusted to the late Friday nights. I get a few meows, some leg rubs, they get scritches in return, and then off they go. HOWEVER..... I did forget to feed them before I left with the boys... so, no din dins for them until I got home at 9PM. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: I was in such trouble. They made sure I knew it: i was late, they were starving, and what was I thinking. Lots of complaints, paws stomping and meowy grumbles! Once fed however i was forgiven, and off the went to play. After I was made to review that blood oath I signed....
Have a great day everyone! I am off with my DD, DSIL, and the boys in a few to the new swimming facility in Snohomish. it is their grand opening today, and lots of things are planned there. They will have facility tours, as well as time for swim too. It should be very busy there, so we all hope that we can get in for the swim slots. We shall see. Even if not, it will be so great to actually get into the place and see how it all flows etc. I can't wait to see Nicholas's reaction.
Time permitting, I may go for a short hike though the woods to the shore here once I get home. ;-)
