Greetings from the PNW, where we have snow today - yay! (I think). Mannie had a bit of a bouncy day yesterday, but by PM cycle he was back on track, winding up the night with what appears to be a nice blue surf. Mannie boy? - nice job! cat_pet_icon We are starting out with a nice 162 this morning. :-D Paws crossed that maybe we will get some greens.

We had our first snowfall yesterday, as short lived as it was, more coming in today. It is fun to watch Mannie's reaction. He was so anxious to go out yesterday morning - got a few feet out on the deck, and kept looking skyward with the quizzical " what the heck!, and what is this stuff?!?!" He lasted 3 minutes, returning rather grumpy. :lol: :lol: Sorry there big fella. It 's been a typical morning here today: breffis consumed with much aplomb: several circles made around his bowl, much hollering, much "me me me me". Nanner security was reestablished shortly thereafter - that took I swear 10 minutes - his circle was askew, it took him forever to get it "just so" before he'd lay down in the middle. :cool: I had to laugh at his antics yesterday. He was sound asleep in his bed, when one of the civvies went to play with a nanner. She was so quiet, but wow: it wasn't 30 seconds later when Mannie's ears perked up, head bolted up, body flew out of his bed, ended up within 3 inches of the civvie (poor elsa) and the staredown began. Nanner security had been breached. Mannie 1, Elsa 0. :lol: :lol: Normalcy in mannieland. :lol: :lol: :lol:

KITCHEN KREW! Another party today! It's Sue's OTJ party, and we have much to do! I've posted the menu on Sue's party page, so check it out, and come ready to chop slice dice pound roll skewer stew grill and bake. yes - fun in the kitchen. See you guys - we are off to Ohio! ~~ Chef Mannie
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

gooo mannie! Your numbers are looking wonderful today! Keep up the great work my man! :RAHCAT
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

hhmmmm...here we go...

"i think of Elsa to this very day.
i remember when she'd turn to me and say...
What good is sleeping on nanners alone?
mannie, let's share a nanner today.
life is a cabaret, ol chum
so let's grab the nanners and play!"

shoot...now binks is running around looking for his Liza outfit...and it's pretty racy!
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

Nice start to a busy day, Mannie looks ready for action. After his nanner-nap, of course.

Mannie, I'm coming down and am ready to chop. WOOT! par-tay! -- Tess
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

Good Morning Guys,

Great numbers there Mannie, liken the +2, Im seeing some green pastures this morning for yah.

Mannie~ Going over to check on the menu for Sue's Party, I want to help, Moma Bean will be busy packing up the motorhome, but I think I can "sneak out", Ugh I think she is planning on taking me camping w/them; I think my Moma Bean has lost her mind..... Maybe I can find it before I leave for Sue's Party, probley going to have to meet you there, I think Im the furthest out, I will leave in a bit; have to make sure everything is in place, so the bean wont miss me ~ Essi
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

Mannie is looking soooooo good this morning! I think he has very specific plans. Perhaps Elsa needs her own nanner or do you think Mannie would steal it? He's very protective on those nanners that boy...great story. I can just picture Elsa quietly trying to sneak off with the nanner in her mouth and then BUSTED.

Let it snow let it snow let it snow!! Brrrrrr....I bet it's beautiful but you couldn't get me outta the house!! Hard to believe for someone who lived in AK about 1/3 of my life :lol: :lol:

Have a great day, Michelle!

Sous Chef Gracie reporting for duty NCIC Mannie!!! What's we cookin' today? Mamabean says we can use her 4wh drive vehicle if we need it...whatever that is!!! I think she called it a "Catfinder"???
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

SNOW....what's that??? :lol:

Mannie is looking so good this morning...I bet he's gonna see some green today.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

Nice blues. Why do I think Mannie may have something in store for you today. The news says you're supposed to get some accumulation of the white stuff.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152

82 @ +4. i elected to feed Mannie some 8% - that's quite the drop from +2. He really likes the Merrick Grammie's Pot Pie - gobbled it up. I will test again @ +4.5. looks like my morning walk will be postponed for a bit... ok in a way - it's 27 outside! brrrrrr.....

hi all!

thanks Tena! darn stuff has stared falling - again... I am glad i really don't have to go anywhere. I will take off for my usual woods/shore walk, as it is very pretty down there when it snows...

Hi Marjorie - I think you may be right... down at +2, always a sign, sure enough: 82 at +4 :-D ... yep: have thought of getting some more nanners, but I think he would just steal those too. :lol: :lol: sheshhhhh - how many does one kitty need? :shock: and yeah - more snow. it is darn cold out there - 27 this morning. brrrrrrrrrr!

Hi Danette! me too, success! we have green... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hey Ann.... I know... think maybe i'll be a little busy....

Hi Celi! :lol: :lol: :lol: very clever, and well done. now i will have Liza in my head all morning. Somehow I can picture Binks all decked out. WOOT!

Morning Pat - thanks!, looks like great day ahead. paws crossed!

Thanks Devon - I hope you survived your evening last night with Mocha - awesome day for her.

Gracie! Essi! Tess! - YAY! This will be so fun - I can't wait to get to Ohio. :cool: :cool: :cool: Essi - way cool - I hope you found your beans brain... mine is loosing hers all the time too - what is up with that? Gracie! you guys have a catfinder??? you are SO LUCKY - them things go everywhere! See you guys soon! uhhhh - how's the menu? I had never heard of them bukceye nuts or the walleyes or those buckeye chickens.... this took a special cookbook.... :shock: This will be fun! ~~ Chef Mannie
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152, +4 82

No snow here...heavy rains up here at the lake. Mannie Ohio is up...not down. Plus you don't go diving for them walleye, you stay in the boat to catch them.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152, +4 82

Looks like you got some sleep last night, Michelle. Good for you, cuz it looks like you're going to busy today. :mrgreen: We got a little snow too and maybe more later today. I wouldn't even let Blackie out in it last night. Funny about Mannie's 3 minutes in the white stuff. :lol:

Have a great day, Michelle.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152, +4 82, +4.5 64

64 @ +4.5. ok, and brought out the semi-big guns: FF GLovers Chicken w/gravy 14%. He got a small tsp, and will test again @ +5

Hey there Blue and Attie! UP? :oops: maybe that's why i was having major gps trouble... :? and I can put away my scuba gear? oh YAY! and I can stay in the boat? - even better! Hey guys - we can stay in the boat. WOOT!, and You comng then Attie to the party? See you! ~~ Mannie

Hi Ele - Mannie wanted out again this morning - silly boy. Told him it's gotten even snowier out there, and noooooooo on the outside. This time there was no argument. :lol: :lol: Nanner pile won out over the white blanket...
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +2 152, +4 82, +4.5 64, +5 71

I can't compete with Celi, but looks like it's

"just another Mannie Monday."

too obscure? remember the Bangles?

looks like he will keep you busy today Michelle. have a good day in the snow, stay warm.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4 82, +4.5 64, +5 71, +5.5 80

71 @ +5 (fed 8%), 80 @ +5.5 - did not feed this one. I think i will get a +6, and see if indeed were are headed on up, maybe he has decided this is a good point to surf... :cool:

MJ - what is with the west coast kitties today - they all want to be green... :cool: I think Gracie is the winner though....

Hi Kim! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: omg - I remember that! too darn funny! and yep on the snow. ohmygod_smile we are now 26, still falling temps, still the white stuff... wow: a little uncommon, but not unheard of, for us.

Hey Celi - are you down to single digits yet?

DANG IT'S COLD OUTSIDE!

Mannie I slowed and am on lifeguard duty, can we get a rope on Gracie? -- Tess
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5 71, +5.5 80, +6 66

66 @ +6... well, looks like we are not done yet. I fed a small tsp of 4% Wellness Turkey, and will test again @ +6.5

Hi Ann - oh that is a good one too - like that thought: so true.

Tess! Cool :cool: and yes - let's get a line on Gracie. I'm kinda bobbin' up and down, but I think I can reach her.... ~~ Mannie
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5 71, +5.5 80, +6 66

I Know - weird isn't it? It's like three furry balls bouncing up and down out there in all that water, while they trade off the diving masks....

Sous Chef Gracie! I know.... we's got to stop playing and gets our buns to Ohio... Muffin is so great - she's getting all set up for us, and organizing everything, and the decorations, and stuff. Hey Moonie and Copper are coming! SWEET! Let's go! ~~ Chef Mannie psssttttt - way cool on the nanners. they are awesome!

Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5.5 80, +6.5 60, +7 65

Wow! What a neat menu, Mannie!! Have a great time cooking at Sue's party!

Hi Michelle, Stu used to blame us for the snow! Once it appears, it is there until spring and the deep snow severely restricted his ambles about the garden.

Great numbers today!

Ella
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5.5 80, +6.5 60, +7.5

68 @ +7.5. I didn't feed this one - he should (famous last words) be at nadir - sure hope he can set up a nice surf.... will test again @ +8

Heeeeeee'ssssss baaaaaaaaaaaacckkkk! King Kamannie Mannie rules the waves, with his able bodied assistants Kowabunga Kitty, and Surfing legend extraordinaire Gracie. Word is that this dynamic trio can surf these dangerous waters for hours! Scary thought folks.

Hi Roni! So many green kitties today - totally cool. Must be all this party excitement. :lol: :lol:

Howdy Ella! Weird on all this snow - we don't always get a lot of lowland stuff, but when we do - what a mess. people here are not used to it - causes all sorts of problems: chaos on the roadways. not to mention that Mannie was so disappointed when he poked his nose outside this morning and was met with a blast of really cold air, and then that white stuff. back to bed for him. Somehow I can see Stu trying to trudge on through the snow only to find his garden buried. You guys must really get the "true winters" with lingering snow. :cool:

Hey Miss Ella! you like the menu? Do you think Stu would approve? I hopes so... I miss him. Are you ready for Rusty? I can't wait to cook for him. FUN! Lubs You! ~~ Mannie

Gracie - no worries ! I will show you how to set up a nanner security system. I have too! MY civvies try and get those nanners too.. ~~ Mannie psst - Moonie want to come dive too - I see her out there - looks like she found us WOOT! ~~ Mannie

Moonie! That would be so col if you can share your song with us at Sue's party! I am excited - I bet it is the best! YES _ come and dive with us! we are having fun: bobbing up and down and then we take turns diving really lowwwww. :cool: :cool: Hurry! ~~ Mannie
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5.5 80, +6.5 60, +8 70

70 @ +8. no food - i hope he has decided to surf now, pul-lease Mannie??? that's two tests, no food - looks like a surf to me. YES! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +4.5 64, +5.5 80, +6.5 60, +8 70

Yes Yes surf Mannie surf!!! They are all on their way back up it looks like....crazy babies!!!!

That's exactly what I need Mannie....a nanner security system!!! COOL...does it just work on nanners or all toys?
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +6.5 60, +8 70, +9 89

89 @ +9. phew! surf established, and hopefully he will stayed on that board. finally - now I can go freeze and walk in all that snow... YAHOO!

Looks like all the trio today - and Moonie, are on their way back up. Ok - kitties: off to Ohio with you - you haev a party to do! fuds to cook! :cool:

Gracie! Yes this it a state of the art security system - it will protect ALL toys and prize possessions... :cool: :cool: ~~ Mannie
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +6.5 60, +8 70, +9 89

Michelle,

Great #'s for Mannie. I guess this cooking gig must agree with him. :smile: On a serious note, what an honor.

I know, my cats aren't so fond of that white stuff either. :shock:

Have a great night.

jan and sara
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +6.5 60, PMPS 180

180 @ PMPS. not bad at all. Way to go Mannie! cat_pet_icon

Hi Lisa! It has been a good day for Mannie. :mrgreen:

Hi Jan! THX! The boy loves to cook! Stu trained him well... :-D and ever so yes on the honor.

Have a great night everyone... :-D
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie AMPS 162, +6.5 60, PMPS 180

Oh Michelle....180 at PMPS? I predict you won't be sleeping again tonight!!! What a fantastic day for Mannie and his PSs have been really good. Miss Gracie bounced big time after dropping so fast today but I have a theory on that dropping stuff now. Glad the trio all had nice surfs in green!!!

I'll be up a while...at least until 10:30 your time since my shot time is off. Have a great evening.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287

287 @ +2. well........ looks we have bounced. :shock: I do hope it is short lived!

Hey Marjorie... well it was a nice pmps. the +2 is a bummer... and looks like I can sleep tonight too. Yes . I read your theory. you should track that. i might go back over and look at Mannie's too, though I don't always have a +11 :? It was good though to see all that green surfin' today. :-D

Thanks for the great evening wishes... just waiting to hear that all my brood made it home safely. The snow was pretty, but now all that has iced up - we are at 24 right now, and whatever melted from traffic etc has turn into a skating rink. It is really bad out there. :? DH just called. it is an hour commute for him on a good day. he said he has been on the road for 3 hours, and only made it 1/4 of the way home. aiyee.... 1 of of the three kids is at her home. 2 to go. nailbite_smile

on a humorous note: Mannie was so excited for his dinner that he was whimpering - literally whimpering. Once he saw the can he started running circles around the bowl - he got so wound up that he fell of the table - too close to the edge. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: poor guy - but it was darn funny. food got served to the sounds of nom nom nom....

Have a great evening everyone! stay warm, dry, safe.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287

Hope all your kiddos make it home safely Michelle...How nice to have them live close so to you.

Are they as energetic as their mom?

And your poor DH.....his commute sounds horrid.

Come on Mannie ....back down from your food spike......slowly....
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287

I had no idea it got that cold and icy in Edmonds!! I hope your DH and kids all make it home safely. Good thing you are staying in ....time to stoke up the fireplace.

At least Mannie is still yellow unlike two other little kittens I know. Looks to be another quiet night...I hate the bounces and when she's not in healing range but I loves my sleepus!! Life ain't fair :evil: :evil: :lol: :lol:
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287

Hi guys!

Thanks Tena - it is nice that all of us are within 25 miles of each other. Heard from son #1, one more to go... and yes - they are all as nuts as their mother. :lol: :lol: all kidding aside - very busy, driven, goal oriented. aiyee - haven't a clue where they got that from. :lol: :lol:

Hi marjorie! We don't always get this cold... normal this time of year our lows are the mid 30's. these 20 degree things are a little out of the ordinary, but not uncommon either. tonight they say 19, tomorrow 12 for overnight lows... BRRRRR! Me too on DH arrival, though I expect it will be a very long night for him on the road. The local TV stations are all focused on the weather and the commute: very bad, iced up roads, traffic is crawling, major accidents, road closures, just a royal mess. I hope I see him before midnight. :shock: He's a seasoned veteran bad weather driver - chicago bred, used to the nasty road conditions from days spent growing up there. anyways... he'll be fine, though i expect a bit surely. :lol:

and yes on Gracie - and Tess. bounce city- and Mannie is right there with them, he just missed the cut-off for the pink floor.... SLEEP tonight ladies!
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287, +4 263

Nice work staying in the yellows, Mannie. But stay there and give your mom a break tonight, she has enough to worry about.

I hope you hear from the last of them soon Michelle. I talked to John and he's on the train and that is running 4 hours late.
 
Re: 11/22 Mannie PMPS 180, +2 287, +4 263

Glad your DH is used to driving in the bad weather...nasty stuff....oh I can't even remember how cold those temps feel!! Hope he gets to stay home with you tomorrow.

See..no pink for Mannie but looks like we will all get sleep tonight!!
 
289 @ +6. sunny yellow for a very cold and frozen area of the PNW.

Hi Lisa and Ann and Marjorie :-D yep - yellow! and that's ok. well all troops accounted for, and 3 of the 4 home. I have to applaud my youngest - he did give two people rides home who had no way to get there. as nasty and treacherous as it is out there he still took them home. way to go kid! he said he slid through way too many intersections, but made it. :shock: DH called - still on the freeway - into hour #7 now, and maybe 2/3 of the way. :shock: I can't remember the last time I have seen road conditions like this - very scary.

anyways - Ann - I feel for your DH. He may be there for a while... it is horrific out there. I would venture to guess that it is running as slow as everything else. everything is just one big sheet of ice. I wish him a safe journey.

well NI NI for me, at least for a few.
