Missing

Me from this blog. After deleting a bunch of dead links on my main blog, I have come to appreciate that feature in Blogger that orders links by date updated. I also like the little images so I may add more there too.

I haven't posted much about Ritzi, our one remaining cat as she mostly lays in my lap getting love. No interesting shots there. And the ones with her sleeping there always make her rear end look fat. She doesn't like that much.

She does like her canned kitty food, being quite spoiled. So yes, she has gotten a little chubby. Ah, I found an actual action shot. Cherish it.

LoCo in Chile

Got the link to this in Humanitarian Service so you can follow the Bluths on their mission as Mission President and wife in the Chile Concepcion South Mission. Connie has a real knack for telling the most interesting stories. Lothaire was our Stake President for the last seven years before being called to serve in the mission field.

Connie and I had worked together many years ago in the Art Masterpiece program at school. I stopped when my daughter was in Junior High. Not doing it for my granddaughter's class, not driving is a killer for me.

He is also my eye doc, performing two cataract surgeries on me before he left. I had a slight complication requiring YAG laser treatment but as he was gone Dr John Lewis performed one last month and will do the other hopefully soon. They are the best.

And yes, I forgot about this blog again, sorry about that.

Exciting Life

Not really, there is not much new, no new kitty pics just following new blogs as my interests have expanded blog wise since I spend most of my time on Pinterest. I totally forgot about this blog until just checking. Too much to do, blogs, Twitter, Facebook. All keep me busy. I must do better or I'll bore people to death.

Been Too Long

Since I posted here. Forgot about the blog, sorry about that. Hard to maintain several blogs when I spend all my time on Pinterest. And since they changed the way one can embed a pin, I can't really share them here.

Aside from that, my life has been pretty uneventful. One visit from my sis and one family trip to Disneyland and a lot of babysitting sums it up. Oh and the usual loving the cat can't forget that. She won't let me.

Now life in general, the wider realms of politics is far from boring. But if you've tried to sign up for Obamacare, you know that. I don't have to. I luck out there except for the fact they took out over $700 billion out of Medicare to pay for this train wreck. So I'll be hurting.

Now off as I haven't yet figured out this app on my iPod.

Figured out real quick that images don't display properly so reverting to editing on the web. *sigh*

Pinning Away

Gee, just checked this blog, it has been a while. I have a new passion, Pinterest, which I discovered from one of my favorite blogs. So testing here and sharing a pin I used as wallpaper on my phone. Thought it was cute. Safe to say, if you don't hear from me much, I am there.

Settings

Need to get familiar with the new layout in the admin area, was not intuitive from the post screen. Had to fiddle around clicking stuff before I got the settings screen to change a setting. Now no captcha.

Templates

Jan is encouraging me to try another template. I will soon as I figure this out. Did figure out how to turn off the mobile view on my phone and get the site. Looks ok just the background doesn't load. I like the background why I tried it. Oh well, another experiment for another day.

Silliness

Posting to Blogger, a Google app, on an iPhone. Also got Google maps cause it is way better than Apple maps along with a bunch of apps I had on my old phone and ones not available on Android phones at all. Suppose I ought to be doing more useful stuff.

Vote

I voted early. If you haven't voted yet, go vote. Don't pay any attention to the polls, they are often wrong. Every vote counts. This is the most important election in our lifetime, it will determine if we remain a free country or go further down the path of socialism. One need only look to Europe to see where that leads.

Economy is important too as is faith and family. Those will be heavily impacted by which path we choose.

Weird

I thought Blogger was down cause I couldn't load any blogs using Camino. Then I thought to try Chrome. It worked. I couldn't be without my favorite blog. I have to get my pretty fix as opposed to my kitty fix which I get all the time.

Nothing else new here, got pics to load which I haven't so don't have any to share. Maybe later.

What Happened

I know I don't post much but under the hood, things have changed lots. I'm not sure about this. So far I can follow the new layout. Could try a new theme but like the one I have so not messing with that now.

In other news, following Zynga's instructions to fix FarmVille has totally fubarred this computer. I can play sortof on the other one although it is hit or miss.

Think all my fish are sick so that game is toast, haven't tried the others.

Less gaming, more free time. Time to listen to Glenn go on about death panels. It's happening. Get too expensive, it's bye bye. The government will decide all matters regarding care, not the docs. Dangerous stuff.

Also, the young will get preferential treatment when it comes to care.

So

Do I blog, not much especially since I hurt my back cleaning up after Ritzi. Naughty cat peed where she shouldn't.

Bout all I'm good for is laying around in pain petting the cat which she doesn't mind one bit.

Spent the most of the last hour cleaning up some of Meowza's followers on Twitter, following those I had missed and deleting others that were spam and one that was just plain annoying. Not that it matters much. He never tweeted much when he was alive and has been silent since he crossed over the bridge except for the occasional carnival he hosts. I'll still keep up with the other kitties.

Time

Lots more time to do stuff now that school has started. Plus, although her mom doesn't pick her up until late, I get her to bed at 8.

Why she doesn't even have time to play games on my computer.

Sweet!

Now if I could get stuff to work right, I'd be happier. Computer problems here.

Auspicious Day

Tomorrow, first day of school. My grandchild will be going to all day kindergarten then an after school program. That will give me some free time as I now only have a little as she has been going to preschool three days a week for a few months now. This is five. I am excited.

I wonder if they will give her homework. Wait they already have. I have to help her round up some favorite things for show and tell. Mostly draw pic of Finn and Jake for her favorite TV show. I draw better than she does.

Been Too Long

Since I blogged here, what with the other blogs, facebook and twitter, I occasionally miss a few. Sorry about that.

I have Meowza's ashes, still haven't picked out a decent urn so he is still in the plastic box he came home in.

Meanwhile Ritzi has been happily enjoying all my attention all to herself like she likes it. She prefers being only cat so only cat she will stay until my daughter reclaims her cat. She's currently in a place that doesn't allow animals.

In other news, deaths of friends have taken their toll, still praying for their families. I do do that. Pray for the kitties and their families too, there has been much illness and death in the cat blogosphere.

Just looked, not very creative in post titles here although the title fits.

RIP Meowza

He's been over the Rainbow Bridge for almost two weeks now thou it's still hard. I miss him so much. I did blog about his death and a memorial at Mind of Mog.

Vet called, left a message cause I was too slow answering the phone. Most likely will pick up his ashes Monday. That will be another teary day.

Meowza

Outside, all dirty, Meowza explores the yard.

It's been warm enough, getting into the eighties. Perfect weather for them to be outside chasing birds and other kitty stuff.

Plants are blooming, expect the flowers he used to lay in to pop up soon that is if he hasn't destroyed them all.

Been Too Long

Since I've posted. Not much new happening, just a lot of loving the kitties. Here's Meowza on my lap. Well, he's so big, takes up a fair amount of real estate down to my knees.

I do the babysitting gig too, lots. Not much time for anything else why I don't blog much, that and WordPress has made it even easier to upload pics with it's latest update. Just drag and drop. So I'm on my blog there more than here. Must not neglect this one.

Missed

All the holidays, didn't even change the background cause there was nothing I liked. Sorry about that.

Even missed the SOPA protest Wednesday. That's important as if SOPA is passed, our blogs may become a thing of the past. Read more about it here.

Even if we only post about our kitties.

Imagine a world without Blogger, Dreamhost which hosts my other sites, Facebook, Flickr, Google, Twitter, You Tube, Wikipedia, WordPress, Zynga and of course the Cat Blogosphere.

No Facebook, no Zynga games, lots of free time. OK, it's not all bad, just 99% bad.

Which is why I did write my congresscritters. I did do the important stuff. I don't want the internet to be censored.

Help Wanted - Desperately Needed

Mario's Meowsings: Help Wanted - Desperately Needed for Mom Robyn who has hit a rough patch and needs all our help.

It took Robyn to get me out of my blogging slump. She's a good friend and I care deeply, even found some green papers for the cause.

Changes

I had changed the background pic but when it doesn't load, couldn't read the white text so I changed it, also the background color so it looks better when the pic doesn't load. Sorry it took so long to fix.

Me lazy.

Easy Like Sunday

One can never have too much Meowza unless he decides to sit in my lap right after a roll.

He is one dirty cat.

Weekend Cat Blogging is at Sidewalkshoes and The Carnival of the Cats is at Nikita Cat's.

Fixed Mostly But With a Hole

Got an error that was making the blog not display. All fixed now. I'm sure I have other blogs that need fixing too as they had the offending code. Sorry bout that, haven't been blogging much so missed it.

Me so bad, I just found out Miss Peach passed on in August, day after I had visited her blog too. I should visit the kitties more often. My condolences to her family. I'm sure she is happily roaming free across the bridge just perhaps watching over them from time to time. Their little guardian angel cat.

The kitties send purrs.

Easy Like Sunday

Ritzi just cause she's so pretty up on the buffet. She be in a dusting mood sortof.

When she's not in a pet me now mood which she is in lots. Gets it too.

I know I don't post here much, always forget. Me bad. Logged in to send purrs and purrayers for Miss Peach who isn't eating. We know where that leads. She has many friends on both sides of the bridge so will be happy irregardless. She's getting lots of love today too. Eyes leaky nonetheless.

Easy Like Sunday

Meowza just cause I haven't shared a photo of him in a while.

Photo taken from my phone, why it looks different.:D

Finally Worked

Blogger's template designer and I was able to change the font colors. Not sure I want to totally change the design yet.

Discovered too Blogger has a spam checker, found a few comments it caught from a blogger I was unfamiliar with, now following her blog. She has cats. Always cool.

And in other news, it got up to 106 today. The heat is a killer for my MS. Weaker, especially walking, have to stay in where it is cool. Not helping that much cause my room is still too warm. Not on the computer as much either cause of that.

Updating

Wasn't sure I could still sign in to two Google accounts in the same browser now that Google made changes to my account but it seems to work. So...

Sharing a pic of my grandchild, she does like to pose for pics.

If this posts, seems Blogger is having issues. Wonder if it's related to the big changes at Google, been messed up better part of a week from what I've read.

Update: Didn't work, switched my email once I logged in to Blogger. I'll have to use two browsers, bah!

Attacked

DreamHost where all my other blogs reside. That includes blogs I host, the Cat Blogosphere being chief of these. Details here. I always check DreamHost Status when I can't connect. Trouble is I wasn't blogging all day so just tried. They are working on it, just haven't gotten it resolved cause they are still under attack.

Lazy Me

Not posting until my background disappeared. So I changed it to a nice Easter one. They did have some pretty backgrounds this time.

I really need to get with it. Have no excuse except babysitting. Oh and gaming.

No new pics as I had been taking them with my phone which tags them with my location. Privacy issue here.

Turquoise

My favorite color and by serendipity I found a blog devoted to it, House of Turquoise. It is a homey blog, ie features homes so is not for those of the feline variety unless cats like nice homes to shred with their kitty claws.

Got some mouth watering stuff in it too, kitchens to die for.

Yes, I know it's been too long again. I blame it on Facebook. :D
