Good Morning LL! 
(YUM! I Love coffee!), and Happy Sunday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, Lil Bit, kitteh barista!, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! Lola and Bug are very busy resting.... They say Sunday is sleep in day... I dunno - I really think they are gearing too much funs at the Full Moon party. Yupp! That's it! well ok then! so. well. anyways. Coffee time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and triple shot espresso, beans from the heart of central Ethiopia. For my mocha fans: Venti Quad orange and vanilla mocha, laced with orange swirls, topped with chocolate whip, garnished with orange zest, slivered vanilla beans and chocolate swirls....... SWEET!, and perfect for a fall day. OH! No worries, a dollop of orange and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good! TJ's dunking cookies and Cronuts standard with every delivery!
I hope everyone had a great Caturday. Mine was catch up day, and I didn't get alot done, just shopping. I didn't even cleaned up Lola's messes from yesterday... :lol: instead I went to my DD's . Last week I wrote about how they bought a new TV, which meant moving the furniture, which meant big pieces of furniture, which meant well we should paint, which meant: HELP! so I went and helped. I went back yesterday too, just to help with the boys while their dad worked on things undisturbed. All is almost done now, and it looks really great. I'm not too sure how helpful I really was, short of keeping the boys occupied while dad fixed outlets and cable connections etc... . LOL: all this work because of a new TV. :lol: :lol: It was fun though. Nicholas got to take me to the store, and we went back to that wonderful locally grow produce place near their home that we went to last week. omg.... I'd shop their all the time if they were closer. Gorgeous produce! On the way home from the store, Nicholas asks his mom if he can go and get a milkshake. LOL: that meant a trip to Starbucks, and a very big, very huge Mocha Java Chip Frappuccino. We did this last Saturday too. it was kinda fun, Nicholas loved it, and this time he even shared! :shock:
It was a nice relaxing fun day with the kids. I didn't get out much, well hiking out, but I really didn't mind that too much either. Perhaps we can do that today. Picassa link: A day with the boys. We also had to run an errand to the cable store, for an upgraded cable box, due to the new TV. The first pics in the album are of the boys , as they waited in the car. As all cable exchanges, it took some time.The boys managed to entertain themselves fairly well. :lol:
Normalcy in MusketeerVille! Yesterday Lola and Bug also latched onto the shopping bags after I came back from the store. Sure didn't take them long to rip them apart. :lol: :lol: :lol: Elsa ventured out once, but didn't stay long. She's really not a fan of cold, unless sun is involved. Bug's acne seemed a bit better this morning. YAY! and lola...... :roll: :roll: :evil: Last week I noticed we were having a problem with the phone answering system.... the messages were not being recorded on the phone system answering machine, but instead were going to the network voice mail for the cable company. We are networked here, and the phone message system is the backup for the telephone systems answering machine. so.... I reprogrammed the phones, checked the settings on the network, and still the messages were coming in to the wrong system. grr_red Well yesterday I had to actually call someone and, although the phone was working, the message panel on the phone said "no line service". :shock: HUH??? Then the light-bulb :idea: went off. LOLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil: She had managed to disconnect the plug in for all the phones. All it took was one whap of the paw, one wrong miss-step.... I SO SHOULD HAVE KNOWN. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: We are now back up and running and all messages are being recorded as they should be. You gotta love it. BUT!!! :lol: :razz: 
: my plants are still intact. The shower door is still being pounded on, as are all doors and glass surfaces. The marathons still continue way past the witching hour. The boxes are still chewed up. And those foil balls keep showing up in the oddest places. I SWEAR they broke the cat mold when they made Lola. Loves ya little one. Just don't teach Elsa and Bug how to do these things, 'K? Promise? YUPP! Normalcy in MusketeerVille! :roll:
Have a great day everyone! I'm not too sure what will be here today. I had hoped to hike, but the weather report is not all that favorable, even snow in the forecast for the mountains, close to a foot or so. Well... we shall see what the next few hours look like, then decide. I may wait until monday when there are sun rumors... An out and about for sure, but I think it will be local... It might be a good day just to stay put. We shall see! Besides... all that I didn't so yesterday due my spending time with Erin Jason Nicholas and William still sits here..... waiting..... :roll: :lol: My son's band has a show tonight, so we will be off later in the evening for that. At least this one isn't at midnight! Hooray for small favors.
