Weekend

My weekend, to me, was a perfect one. Friday I left work early, did some work from home, and after that hit the couch for a nap and watched a little television. Perfect! Saturday, I got up, started a book club site for my extended family after doing some research on forum sites. After that, I did some needed grocery shopping. I noticed I still get home, after spending $100 that I still needed things!! But I am happy. I bought some tasty meats. Once the groceries were put away, took a couple loads to the dumpster and was off to pick up Malik, my special friend, to go to a Back to School Bash! Being a foster child, Malik's mood changes frequently when in different situations, so Saturday night was a tough night for us...but we made it through. He got a new backpack filled with goodies (pencils/books/notepads) and he also received new sneakers - pretty neat night! All in all, it was a good day. Sunday, I got up, went to target to get Bart a new cat play/climb thing, he wore his other one out so bad he couldn't play on it anymore. (He LOVES his new on by the way. He played so much on it, he wore himself out...I could pick him up while sleeping, and he wouldn't even know.) I got home and watch a little television, did some work, made myself a good dinner (although I didn't like it) and headed off to Church. Church was good, came home to a double feature of TMNT's!! Read and watched that a bit until I fell fast asleep. It was a great weekend home. Traveling more I tend to really enjoy my weekends to myself. Well, myself and bart! (He likes them too!)

Okay - so my favorite lines from either a tv show or movie from this weekend:
Psych: Shawn "Good call on the mini bat"
South Pacific: After Emile told Nellie he killed a guy. Nellie: I am okay that you killed a guy, because you said it was for a good reason. My thoughts: WHO WOULD DATE A GUY AFTER HE TELLS YOU HE KILLED A GUY!!! HELLO PEOPLE. Love South Pacific - but man is it unreal!!!

I am off - have a great Monday all!

My little guy!

I love my cat. To me, he is the sweetest thing. Every morning, around 6:30 he is lighting tapping my nose with his paw as if he were saying 'rise and shine'! My alarm typically goes off between 6:45 and 7, which is not needed for Bart is my little guy that makes sure I don't over sleep. As he wait for me to wake-up, he is patiently sitting there watching me. No meowing, just light taps on the arm or nose. It is a great way to wake up - to a little face that loves you and can't wait for you to wake so you can play! I love morning with him. On the flip side, when I get home from work he is waiting to lots of kisses. He kisses every finger as I try to pet him. I couldn't ask for better welcome when I get home everyday.

Every morning we have our routine. He makes sure I am up, we play a bit before I actually get out of bed, then we race to the kitchen were I feed him and make coffee. I sit on the floor, next to his food, drink my coffee while he eats breakfast. If I don't sit there, then he won't eat. Bart has to be in the same room I am in. After he eats, we typically take a shower. Bart sits on the edge of the tub so he can still see that we are in the same room, and when the shower turns off he jumps and and begins playing in the puddles left behind. For some reason, I love this part of the day. He loves splashing around in that water. The worst part is watching him look at me as I leave for work. So sad! As you can tell, I love my little guy. He tends to be my world sometimes.

Well I best get back to work.
