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 water day here yesterday, what with the pool in the morning, and again in the evening. It was a slow start getting out the door for us. Nicholas had this nasty cough, but was feeling much better, so wanted to go swim, so we did. ;-) Even taking that in mind, the energy level is endless. I sure wish I had half of what he does. We swam at his regular pool in the morning, and the back up pool in the evening. In between we were able to visit some with my DMIL Connie, as she had watched William while Nicholas and I were at the pool. Sure was a nice day. I love swim days! And Friday nights. I so love our after swim Friday night tradition, dinner in the car, in the dark, with good food! Nicholas still wanted and really enjoyed is after the swim Friday night Burger Fest Extravaganza and Pig-out. He really looks forward to what is becoming a tradition with us on Friday nights: burgers, fries, milkshakes, and chocolate cupcakes. YUM! :cool: This is what I wrote last night, very late last night when I got home, about the day: "Hi Everyone! WHAT A DAY! A late one, but a good one. Nicholas came all ready to "rock and roll" today, feeling much better, and wanted to swim. So we did! Twice! :shock: I had so not expected to be spending two sessions in the pool today. really didn't. Nicholas, however did! He showed up as good as new, ready to go, and so we went. swimming at lynnwood in the morning, swimming at Terrace in the evening. Crazy... but he had a blast. and told me each session when he was done, and ready to go. He is so nice he knows his limits, limits which are rather big ones. One has to respect that. He played hard, stopped when the fuel cells had run dry. He told me stories on each car ride home. Love that drive from MLT to his house: 30 minutes of little guy stories. Quite the imagination he has. Anyways - been a great day, and very long day, and I am beat. beyond beat. Off to bed in hopes that I can avoid catching the crud that the boys whole family has... doing OK so far, but tonight one side of the nose is a bit off.... oh oh....We did manage a decent weather dam, but we are still cold. No snow yet! Ours has been pushed back to Sunday, with the bulk south of south sound. we shall see if we get any. ;-) All three cats are now staring at me, guess they feel I am late for the bed place. too funny. :lol: :lol: NI NI LL! I-) I-) I-) I-) Thank you all for visiting today! It does mean alot. :-D "

Normalcy in MusketeerVille! :cool: :cool: :cool: What to say about the kitties.... They have been good kitties, and even Lola! Well sorta on Lola... Lola will always be Lola. Crazy fun Lola. 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. DH fed them so there was no worry over them producing that "blood oath", they had full bellies... They did greet me, and were off on this awesome marathon run and chase, warp speed, a continuous chase for close to 10 minutes, one that included furniture jumps, floor sliding, rug curling, and stair hopping... :lol: :lol: That was so crazy. Elsa just sat there and watched them, before turning her back on the both of them, and heading off to bed, with that look on her face: "Well, are you coming?" :-D This morning Lola is really into the glass and mirror pounding. over and over... that and the attack the shower curtain game. A busy one she is this morning. She is such fun! alot of Normalcy in MusketeerVille this morning!

Have a great day everyone! I am off to service the car today - woo hoo! I need to get a recall notice dealt with, so off we go. Sure hope it doesn't take long... There is a Starbucks across the street - I think I shall bring a book, get some good ~O) and enjoy some time there. Time permitting, I may go for a short hike though the woods to the shore here once I get home. ;-)

KITTIES! Remember: think BLUE, think GREEN cat_pet_icon

I'm so glad you guys are having a wonderful time, and have a fun routine happening. Those burger meals sound delicious!

It's nice to hear about kitty antics, and how they run around, and play.

Hoping that your car issues aren't serious, and you can get in and out of there in record time to go on that hike! Have a great day, enjoy your coffee (and perhaps a snack there, too...?). Be safe!
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

What a great pool day Nicholas had! Love how he knows when he has reached his limit :-D His swimming and diving amaze me ~
Hope you can fight off the nasty that has been going around, Michelle.
Enjoy your Starbuck wait. Hope you make it to the shore :-D

Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Hi Linda _ THX for the visit! Those kitties! Snowboarding too ? a - That we are! He really does look forward to the burgers as much as the swim time. That makes for a lot of fun. The car isn't a big deal. Just a recall fix for an airbag issue Honda has been dealing with for a while. Hopefully this trip will take care if it all. Paws crossed! Camping out at Stthe crud" ucks as I type..... :-D

Hi Jane. It really was a fun pool day. I too love how he bas come to know his limits. Some days he can go for two plus hours, others it is just one. Darn cool, imho, that he recognizes done. I so agree on his swim, love the dive (!) And only at a just turned three. GO NICHOLAS! THX too on the day, and "the crud". So far I seem to be winning! :cool:

Hi linda - THX for the visit! Those kitties!!! Snowboarding too?? Amazing. No doubt they all will come home with medals. :)!! HI back to lucky!
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

That's nice that the crud didn't keep Nicholas from swimming. I hope everyone gets better soon. How funny on the 10 minute marathon when you got home. Those kitties have so much energy. I hope everything went well with the car and you got a nice walk in.
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

What a crazy day.... to sum up the car appt: grr_red angry(2)_cat angry(2)_cat grr_red angry(2)_cat grr_red angry(2)_cat angry(2)_cat :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Ok, I get here, get checked in, and since it was a two hour appt I decided to go the coffee shop, wait some there, have some good ~O) , read a bit, and then check back with them in a hour plus some. So I get back there only to have the service guy meet me at the door, and tell me they didn't have the part, and couldn't fix the car. HUH???? no Part? What a waste of my time as far as that goes... When I made the appt, they confirmed that they had the part... shesshhhh! Even if they didn't, and had to order it, with their assuming that it would be in by the time I came in for the appt, one would think that they'd verify that before I got there. The guy says it was coming out of Portland. I know Portland has had some sever weather, nothing is moving on the freeways due to snow and freezing rains. I can accpet that, but couldn't they have called to reschedule the appt? Maybe I'm wrong, but if it were my shop I'd confirm parts are in the day before when one knows the service being performed will need a specific part. Oh well... so it goes it guess. SO we wait, once again, for a call that they have the part and maybe then I can get this recall off my to do list. maybe. :roll: :roll: :roll: The time at the coffee shop was nice, and I really enjoyed that. I got home, and felt pretty good, still don't really have the boys cold, so I went out on a shore walk. It Was sunny when I went out, lost that half way though, but did encounter some very pretty ice formations at the creek. I had a great time there. WOOT! I will post those images in the Picassa link in tomorrow's condo. ENJOY YOUR EVENING EVERYONE!
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Michelle, we just cross posted. Sorry about the mix-up with the part for your car. That is frustrating and no way to run a business. They should have called you. At least you actually got to read some. I'm glad you got a walk in when you got home.
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

HI Carla - THX, and I so agree. They should have called. oh well, back to the drawing board. ;-) :roll: And yes, the rad time was nice - that doesn't happen enough, for sure! I thought so too - on Nicholas. He sow ante to be there, and was no worse for wear when we were done. He had a great time. Those 10 minute marathons I get when I get home on FR nights just crack me up - seems it happens every FR night. "woohoo! mom's home! let's [perform!". and so they do. :lol: :lol:
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Hi, Michelle, sorry to hear about your car appt today. Grrrrrr. Frustrating. Hope it goes smoother next time.
Give your kitties scritches for me ~ hopefully they're tucked in for the night, dreaming of tomorrow's antics...
Have a good night!
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Hi Michelle - I hope you are well and continue to avoid the yuck the boys had. You've got too much to do to catch that too! Loved the pics of bear this time, bear with Lola, bear with his head in the coffee. :lol: :lol: Does William have a bear equivalent yet?

Darn on the car repairs - you'd think they would coordinate parts and repairs. :roll: At least I've got a short hike I can go on near my repair shot, or a chocolatier to visit. Sbucks not bad spot to read though. Enjoy your evening.
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Hi Michelle! I always get so hungry and thirsty when I read your condo :lol: That sucks on the car, it would have been nice of them (expected of them!) to call and reschedule. I'm so glad that you talk about Mannie and his nanners, which led me to finally buy one. You saw the video of Chyna loving it, so thanks! Scritches to all your kitties :-D I hope your evening is going good!
 
Re: 2/8 LOOSE LIPS: pools... & more pools... HAPPY CATURDAY!

Hi Everyone! We finally have SNOW. WOO HOO! I have no clue how long it will last, but it sure looks pretty out there. :-D

Hi Josie - it is so great to hear from you! :-D I hoe all is well with you. Me too on the next time with the car - silly Honda folks! :roll: It is more of an annoyance than anything else... Will do on the kitties, and that they are: all snuggled down. Even little Miss Mischief, Lola, who is no doubt resting up for her midnight marathon run. :shock: :lol:

Hi Wendy - So far, I am! A little sniffle now and then, but all in all. no crud! dancing_cat Oh cool on the Bear pics! I had to include him, He still comes on all the adventures, I just haven't been very successful in getting him into the shots.With juggling both boys there have been too many times, when I or Nicholas have set him down, and then lost him :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: .Always found though - phew! SO far no on William. I so wonder what his will be. :cool: He likes alot of them, but so far doesn't seem to have a fav. I agree on he car - some coordination would have been nice. :roll: Nice you can walk at your shop too. I would have today if it has been warmer. darn temps!

Hi Rachel - LOL on the hunger and the thirst! Agree too on the car. and yes, ah a big yes, on Mannie and his nanners. He just lvoed those tings,a nd had several. When he crossed to the Bridge we laid him to rest in his garden with several of them. What is kinda cool is that there are so many of them left in the house. I really didn't realize how many he had.... Nanner Kings RULE! I rally enjoyed seeing Chyna like hers. ALot of good memories for me. TX on tonight - it has been mellow, and nice. A good time!
