Well, looks like Mannie sure doesn't want a dosecrease - another day with a green cycle - a day and a half later, after promising him I was going to up the juice. Sure looks like he told me. :lol: I had gone hiking yesterday, and really have little clue on what he did during the morning cycle. The PM one though sure was nice! I hope for more, though maybe not as low as last nights went. Paws crossed. Thanks Mannie for a job well done! cat_pet_icon

Amazing that I didn't oversleep this morning, sure was wiped out after yesterday. I was awakened to a face full of whiskers, a wet nose, a few gentle nudges - seems that the boy wanted his breffis. Him and the two civvies who were bellowing at the foot of the stairs. :lol: Breffis was consumed with gusto, clean plate club intact before I even got the civvies fed. :shock: Go Mannie! He did well with the mini poke-a-thon last night. He'd hear me get things ready, come and sit in his test spot. Nice, he does make it so easy. After testing it was off to the nanner pile, where they here hugged, three at a time, followed by a brief nappus. No doubt he will be begging to go out soon - the sun is up, not a cloud in the sky: perfect for the Nanner King.

Have a great day everyone! It is a beautiful sunny morning here in the PNW - cool at 40, but ever so nice. A morning walk is in order for sure.... after that? i dunno.... the yard needs serious help. :roll:

My friends! What is up for today? Maybe a road trip? Cruising with snackin' fuds? I dunno.... sure would be a good day for mountain hang gliding. Hmmmmm..... let me know - I am ready for anything! ~~ Mannie

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333

Now Mannie, don't put any undo stress on your bean! Come back down and play nice
Last night was a bit nailbite_smile , but mannie came out of it just fine with the help of his bean being right there
to do all the right things. I hope you guys have a great day what ever you do..
Is the blister any better this a.m.? sure hope so.. I would love to go hiking up there! Your photos are breathtaking to say the least.

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278

Hi Michelle, wow, you sure did have a great pm cycle last night after the threatened dose crease! Looks like he is coming back down at the +5. Maybe another dosecrease threat will bring him down again. Hope your blister is healing as that was quite a hike yesterday. I just have to buy some of those nanners for Maggie. I saw on Amazon where you can either buy one or three in a pack. My 88 year old neighbor has a fluffy kitty, and we are always buying toys for each other's cats, so Maggie can share the nanners with her kitty boy friend

Hey Mannie, I'm up for anything today. Hang gliding sounds fun or maybe just a road trip thru some nice country. I wonder if Gracie's catnip patch is okay. Rusty's cellar also needs some manpower help. I'll be waiting for you to picks me up, and see ya soon, Maggie

 

[Marje and Gracie]

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278

It was a really great cycle last night. I always wonder if these nice cycle bounce nice cycle bounce....deserve more juice :lol: :lol: :lol: (ok...I'm just saying that so Mannie and Gracie will come down). Glad you had a great hike yesterday and hope you enjoy your PNW sun today!!

Mannie...everything is done...we can lay out by the pool after hanggliding. Maggie doesn't need to worry about catnip...it is growing like crazy now!

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278

Hey Mannie, Bring the crew to my place. We'll bail some icy water and then chill out in my backyard. Lots of sun today. Nice and warm. We can grill some hot dogs. See you later?
Rusty

Hi Michelle, sounds like a good day to take a nap. Mannie is cooperating!! How's your blister?

Ella

 

[Sherry & Zoe (GA)]

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278

Wow - really nice PM cycle - lovin all the green! I'm sure Mannie will clear the bounce quickly and be back to some pretty blues for you tonite. He is such a good boy! I think ha may have been chatting with Zoe and explaining about just getting up on the testing spot - she has become sooooo good at it - she never used to be - so Thank you Mannie! ;-)

Hey Mannie - enjoy the sunshine - Mountain hang gliding - I'm in! Lounging by the pool, I'm up for that too! Helping Rusty bail water doesn't sound like a lot of fun, but it would probably be the right thing to do, cause he is our friend and his beans could use the help - then we can all go hang out in the sun! ~Zoe

 

[Ann & Tess GA]

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278

Yea on those dosecrease threats, it seems to be working on Tess today. Come on down Mannie that threat is still out there.

Mannie! I got another Nanner!! It smells so gooooooooood1 i could smell it right through the plastic. Mom, got more nip to put in the old one too! 2 Nanners! :dizcat :dizcat :dizcat -- Te~~

Re: 5/1 Mannie AMPS 233, +2 333, +5 278, +11 382

382 @ +11. ARRGGHHH!!!! ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile and what a difference a day makes.... can we say BOUNCE! well - here's hoping the evening cycle is good, and not pink... paws crossed!

ok.... between two hikes on FR and Sa, and a low tide walk this morning, and an afternoon in the yard, and a late night with Mannie last night and the night before - this bean is toast. :shock: now you wait and see... Mannie will decide that since his bean is sooooooooo tired that a dive is in order.... uhhhhhhhh: anti-jinx! :lol: :lol:

Hi Tena - love that photo! That is my boy.... he spent so much time today doing just that. Somehow I think he has the right idea!

Hi Squirrel - Thanks - last night was fun - well manageable at least. after a while you get used to them.... nailbite_smile I am so elated when we get greens - worth the time spent up. and yes (!!) - blister is much much better this AM - today I don't feel it. HOORAY! some healing to do yet, but the pain is gone. and thank you on the photos... we do have such a variety of terrain here. Love them all!

Hi Ann, and Maggie - thanks! and yes, last night was great. I wish he could have continued today, but a bounce is in play right now. I hate those, but so it is, and I hope it clears sooner than later. may have to issue the threat again.... Oh cool on the nanners - yep, I got mine at amazon too. I did the three pack I think you save some that way. I hope Maggie likes them. Well we all know Mannie does... and the civvie here too, when he lets them play that is :lol: :lol:

Hi Marje - yeah i know.... dang bounces!! i know they keep saying that eventually they stop, but... uhhhh... when? And yes - had a grand time yesterday - Only regret was that I could not stay another 3 hours - the ridge topside is so awesome - you can see all the mountain ranges - so worth the effort, but i had no time to hike it. well, maybe next time...

Hi Ella - blister is much much better! Prep H really helped!!! Pain is gone, swelling is gone, it still has a way to go to heal, but today I do not feel it, and that is OK by me. and yes - I should have done that: nap... when will I ever learn????

Hi Sherry - Thanks - I hope so too. Blues tonight would be so nice! After all this time one would think I would be used to the bounces... does one ever? I still cringe when we are in bounce mode. Mannie however could case less. :lol: :lol: how awesome that Mannie has imparted words of wisdom to Zoe on the benefits of cooperating at test time. Isn't it great when they do? Sure makes life so much easier!!

HI Ann, and Tess. You betcha on the dose threat... well,we shall see what he decides to do with this bounce today. dang that 382 was painful!

TESS!!! SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NANNER!!!!!! and you gots new nip on the old one? Did it take Nanner surgery? oh oh..... is it as good as new? pssstttt - I know on smelling them through the plastic. my bean thought she was being so clever, trying to hide them from me. I could smell them in the closet. uhhhhh - I don't know why she was so upset when I clawed the door trying to get them outta there. silly bean! Isn't more than one nanner the best? ~~ Mann~~

Zoe - you are one cool chick kitty! You wants to do everything - just like me! SO we shall.... Road trippin' to Rusty's to help with the bailin', and grillin' in his back yard!, another road trip to check on Gracie's patch, mountain hang glide for a bit, more pool time! and then more road trippin' and back to your place: POOL time! and chillaxin'. I gots lots of sunscreen! I am so there! See you!! ~~ Mannie

Rusty!! Dude!! that is so cool! The gang is on it's way.... Bail bail bail... and a grillin' session to boot. See you!!! Hey wanna stop in and see Zoe later too? She has POOL! and it is nice there too. See you soon!! ~~ Mannie

Maggie - I like your style! What a day we will have!! I know.... on Rusty's basement.... but we could help a little, maybe before we play. On my way - it's such a great sunny day that I have taken to top off the roadster! SWEET, huh!

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374

374 @ PMPS. ugh! on the bright side - it is down a little from his +11....

 

[Barbara and tuffy]

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374

Well, guess he is windsurfing. COME ON DOWN MANNIE. Hope he comes down to some lower floors (softly). Preparation H, that's funny, I used that on the horses all the time, works wonders. Enjoyed all the pics of the pass. AWESOME. Have a peaceful night (anti-jinx)

 

[Barb & Checkers (GA)]

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374

Gees Mannie, don't your little legs get sore from all that bouncing? No? Oh I see, you land on your 'nanner pile :lol:
Hi Michelle. I'm jealous that you get to go walking. It rained (drizzled) all day today. I don't mind getting wet, but it's cold. :sad:

 

[Ann & Tess GA]

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374

Teeter totter time again! I wish our two would pick a game on the ground floor! Let it be short and a nice slow glide down.

Mannie! Wow ! You are good at hang gliding, but are you supposed to go up that High? Start the gliding part now Mannie, nice and gentle an a perfect landing in the greens! -- Tess

 

[Michelle and Mannie (GA)]

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374, +2 343

343 @ +2 BLECH!! BLECH! BLECH! at least it is down for pmps so maybe we will at least find the yellow floor.

Hi Barbara - sure as heck looks like he is. :lol: and yes on the prep H - who would have thunk that! but it did help - alot. and THX on the pass photos. It was sunny then, well most of the time, and so pretty as I drove over that I just had to take some photos. It was so weird to see fresh snow still clinging to the boughs of the trees at the higher elevations. it will be alate season for alpine hiking... still snow bound for some time to come.

Hi Barb -well bummer on your drizzle... we have had 2.5 gorgeous days, and now we wait for the shoe to drop. rains are set for tomorrow thru wednesday I think. and yeah on the cold - we aren't very warm either. I don't think we even broke 60 today. sunny, but cool. and :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: on the sore bouncy legs - true! nanners are good for everything, including softening landings. Too funny!

Hi Ann - could they, please???? Sure doesn't look like Mannie wants to leave the pink floor tonight. +2 is don a little... but.... bummer!

Tess??? Where are you???? Is that you wwwaaaaayyyyyyyy ddooowwwwnnnnnn ttthheeerreeee??? You look like a little speck - weird! OK, I will start the gliding part now. Miss Barb said I should land on my nanners. she says they are all soft an stuff. But then again, the green lagoon would be really cool. See you!~~ Mannie

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374, +2 343

good evening, guys! Sorry to be checking in so late... lots of house hunting today! What a beautiful cycle for Mannie last night! May he clear this bounce soon!

Hope that you had a lovely walk this morning and a productive afternoon!

Mannie? U'z can hear me up dere?? I'z on mah way!!! See ya soon! --Willie

 

[Michelle and Mannie (GA)]

Re: 5/1 Mannie +11 382, PMPS 374, +2 343

Hi Christie! me too - he can't leave the pinks soon enough.... YAY on the house hunting! I hope you found some possibilities. I hear from Mannie that he and Willie are consulting on what a house should have... something about fire-pits and grill plates, and pools with decks, and sand with a few mini hills for a dune buggy course, and a catnip patch. where do they come p with this stuff.....

Willie - that is an affirmative. It's me - see me???? Way up high by the clouds? You guys look so small.... See you soon - hurry - way too much fun to be had. ~~ Mannie
