Awake at nine and a half-hour in bed with coffee and the still-with-us Boston Globe. Cat comes up for lovey time. Plunks herself down in mid-paper. How sweet it is.
Down to the kitchen and make blueberry pancakes out of yesterday's waffle batter. Two slices of bacon per person, our idea of dieting. It warn't turkey bacon, either.
Clean up kitchen, spot clean tablecloth and throw in a load of laundry. Monday is still washday.
Give Thisbe her insulin shot.
Onto computer for email, blogging, and working on today's reading for the writing group. Wrote 4 pages yesterday. Good for me.
Shower, etc.
Off to Walmart for cat litter, insulin needles, cat food and a few assorted groceries. I used to scorn Walmart, before retirement and the cats many needs.
Looking for rhubard for rhubard bread later in week. Hope it's not $5.99 per lb. again.
Drop off key for cat sitter with instructions.
Baking food processor bread, and freeform blueberry tart. Dinner is a salad with grilled steak (cooked last night) on top.
Watch a little Wimbleton.
Water houseplants.
Print out reading for tonight.
Wine and cheese, then dinner. La-de-dah!
Off to writing group.
Blueberry tart. Maybe a little reading or TV. Insulin to cat again.
Read more of Eat, Pray, Love on Kindle. Lights out!

Missed Cat Blog Day Again
Damn! I missed cat blog (Friday) day again.
A day in the life of Thisbe:
Go upstairs after a snack and greet mistress as she is awakening.
Twice a week--get brushed. Love it!
Downstairs for another snack.
Out onto the front porch until a person, vehicle or (horrors) dog appears. Beat retreat.
Beg for catnip and receive same.
Downstairs to home office. Chased back upstairs by Annie who thinks this is HER territory.
Look out the kitchen window on the cat perch. Observe squirrels, chipmunks, birds and people. Even vehicles and dogs. Safe and sound.
Upstairs and under the bed for a power nap.
Downstairs for another snack.
Maybe some serious mouse play. Possibly even vigorous mouse play (VMP)
Hang out in the living room during dinner and ball game.
Beg for more catnip.
A snack before bedtime.
Accompany grownups to bed. In summer, sleep on floor by bed. In winter, curl up at foot of bed.
Middle of night: occasional mouse play if the mood arises.
Sleep until next snack time.
What a life!
