It's raining, it's raining!!

It's raining. Boo.
So today I will continue my journey through Romantic Comedies (rom-coms). Last night I watched 'When in Rome'. It wasn't horrible but I probably won't watch it again. Today I am going to watch 'Leap year'. I am kind of looking forward to that one, I like Amy Adams. She was excellent in 'Enchanted'. I also downloaded 'My-so-called Life', I watched it religiously when I was a teen. I loved everything about that show. I really would love to re-watch all of the shows that I loved when I was younger. I have watched the first season of 'Daria'. I really want to watch some 'Saved by the Bell'. I absolutely loved that show when I was a kid. I think that I have seen every episode at least twice thanks to 'TBS'. I had the hugest crush on Zach Morris. He was so cute and funny. Still looking for a cute and funny guy, wait I found one. Frank!! haha.
I did some gardening yesterday. I moved some hot pepper plants from the side garden to where the beans and peas are planted. The hot peppers were being eaten by some bugs. Also Frank has been using that garden as his big outdoor kitty litter. So far we have 3 peppers growing. One of the pea plants has a pea growing! I can't wait until it is ready! Peas are my absolute fav! I hope to make dill beans this summer. I also want to do something with the peppers. We buy red hot peppers filled with goat cheese from the grocery store. I think I could make those. Having a garden is awesome. I really want to plant more flowers though. I will post pics of the garden tomorrow. Hopefully it isn't raining!

Frank's moves!!

Frank does all of these. It is like someone broke into the house and followed Frank around. I like the 'flop', he is famous for that one, sometimes he hits his head on the floor! What an idiot.

Frank!!

Happy Caturday!!

Frank!!

Happy Mother's Day!!

Well Maaa, it has been another year! A year filled with a lot of laughter and some tears. I hope that you see us as more than just mother and daughter, but as friends as well. I do. We are lucky to have a relationship in these times when parents and children seem to be divided. We have been through a lot. You have been there for me every step of the way. So, thank you and I love you!
Frank made the sign all by himself. (you can tell)
We hope you have a good day! Thank you for being a great Mom!
Lots of love from the crazies in Bowmanville!

It's Caturday!!

Happy Caturday,y'all!! These were taken last night, he was sleeping. It looks like he is smiling in the second one!

The peas have sprouted!!

This is a pea sprout that I noticed yesterday. Looking good so far. There has been only one pea sprout, but the sun hasn't been out and about lately. It thunderstormed last night! The rain was crazy hard and the lightning lit up outside completely. It was awesome! I love thunderstorms. It is rainy and cold outside right now. I have to try and figure out something to cover those plants. Frank said that there was no way he was going to help with the gardening. So I told him there was no way that I was going to help with fat. He is on a strict diet. This morning he was allowed a plain rice cake, a blueberry and a glass of water. That's it. He is running on a little cat treadmill that I got him right now. He doesn't look happy. But being fit takes work.

Lovely Lilac!

Lilacs in a tea cup. Pretty! I cut a branch off the lilac tree in the front yard. There are now lilacs all over the house. Even by Frank's food dish! He likes the smell. I think they are a really pretty flower and they smell lovely.
Todays weather was a little schizo, cold and windy then warm and sunny. We had to go to Mosport race track to a auto shop there, James ordered some parts for the race car from there. Then we went for a drive. We enjoy going for drives. We noticed a lot of places for sale. James, just like my mother, enjoys looking at real estate. We aren't looking to buy, it is just fun to look. Window shop. I absolutely love going to open houses. Everyone thinks that is depressing, James gets depressed, I really enjoy seeing what is out there. Also it is practice for when we do look for another house.
Went food shopping, I am going to make shepherd's pie tomorrow. Also I am going to make a soup. I have to clean out the fridge and freezer. There is no room! After food shopping, James put carpet that we bought the other day into the van. I did some yoga and housework. And then we went to Red Lobster, or as the french say 'Lobster Rouge'!!!! I ate everything on my plate. I spent the rest of the night in pain. I was laying on the couch feeling like crap, so I forced myself to go for a walk. It felt good. Cool, fresh air. Now I am going to have a bath and then go to bed. I need to get up early tomorrow. Work out before James gets home, so I can blast dance music!

Polka dot toenails and Bread!!

Well, the bread isn't perfect but it is still pretty damn good! The bottom is a bit moist but if you toast it, AMAZING! I put a little butter and jam on a big thick slice, it is to die for! Way better than store bought bread. I am on my way to being a master baker. Master baker....that is what I said. pervert. Geez.
I painted the toenails, finger too! Green with white polka dots. I think they look cute. Aren't you all happy I am without a job, otherwise who else's toes would you be reading about. I am going to take some more pictures this afternoon. I noticed some more sprouts this morning. We might be getting some frost tonight, so I have to find something to cover my strawberries and peppers. I don't want them to die. I think I might weave plastic bags together and get Frank to hold them all night. His contribution to the garden, other than his shit and piss. We'll see.

Aren't we cute?

We are all making angry faces! HeeHee!

Frank:Upclose and Personal

I woke him up to take this upclose picture. How much does he hate me? Not very much actually! We found a boo-boo on his right shoulder when we got back on Sunday night. I think it is from the fight he got into the other day. He was freaking out more than usual when we were giving him a bath, probably because the cut was hurting due to the soap and water. It doesn't seem to bother him now. Such a tough guy!

lol catz are my crack.

Sometimes I get stuck on the internet looking at cute animal picture and videos. I think that is my crack. Can't get enough. I saw this one last night. I love Marie Antoinette, anything to do with her I find fascinating. Now I know a sleeping cat isn't fascinating, but look at the fur, the colour, the posture! If Frank was still, er, well, "equipped", then I would be tracking this beauty of a cat down! Of course I am assuming that this is a female. Even so, I really want a pretty white kitty. Frank would probably be scared of it, would remind him of the evil White Cat. I just think it would look pretty for family photos. James could hold Frank the boy cat and I would hold Margaret the girl cat. I am not sure yet what her name would be, maybe Helen. Marcia? Another boy would be named Dennis,obviously!

Frank vs. White Cat

I know bad picture of White Cat. But right after I took this picture the camera started smoking and my eyes had a burning sensation. I couldn't see for an hour after. I think it is because he is evil. He looks way more mean in real life. He has really big fangs and large talons. I once saw him set a bush on fire with flaming death breath. He just laughed and walked away. Didn't care. How awful.

Handsome Frank

I wanted to show you how handsome Frank looks after he has had a bath. Isn't he to die for! What a beaut! I think that the evil White Cat is jealous of Franks good looks and that he can pull of the weight. He makes fat look good! Plus he has way more personality in his left paw than the White Cat. Maybe I should post a picture debate of the White Cat and Handsome Frank. Let you guys be the judge. Frank will win for sure.
Right? Right??!! RIGHT?!!! yes. he will.

Poor Frank!!

Frank met up with his arch-nemesis 'White Cat' the other night. I was outside and I heard cat fighting sounds. Frank had went over to the neighbors and was in the 'forest' beside their house. I called to James and we ran over. White cat was standing all defiant and poor Frank was cowering in fear. I will admit that I saw a lot of white fur and there was white fur stuck in Franks paws. We scared White-devil-Cat away and called to Frank. He ran to the front of the house. That is when we noticed the smell. Frank had went poopy, he was actually still going poopy. James carried him to the back door and took him to the basement for a bath. Frank was not happy! We washed and dried him, then lured him upstairs with treats. He sat on the carpet in the backroom licking himself. I wanted to show you how funny he looks wet. His tail is so skinny and funny when he whips it around. James has decided that he must teach Frank self defense, so he doesn't have any more 'Shit Shows'. We have also decided to defend the house against the evils of White Cat. Stay tuned to hear more about the saga of Frank and White Cat.

Meeting the work pals.

Last night I met James' work buddies. They usually will do a wing/beer night at the end of a bunch of shifts and this time wives/girlfriends were invited! We went to a bar in Courtice. It was nice to put the names to faces. I have heard many a story about the various characters he works with. Also meeting the women behind these men was nice. I think that we will be hanging out more. When we got home after many beers(James) and 5 martinis(Krista), Frank was attacked. With love, mind you. And lots of it! James had just finished a 3 day, 12 hours a day work week, had many beers and he loves Frank. Let's be honest this is a serious Bromance. I was gone all weekend and they had some bonding time. Okay all together now, "Awwwww"!

Pics of Frank!!

Here are some pics of Frank. I was chilling on the couch, I grabbed Franks Binkey(a shawl that my mom made me) to lure him over. Of course he came over! Loves his Binkey!! I grabbed him and placed him on his back(he likes to sit like people) and put his Binkey on him like a blanket. It was adorable. His feets were sticking out the bottom. We laughed so hard.
The two other photos are of Frank laying on the kitchen floor. James was tossing pieces of newspaper on him. He just laid there. One landed on his face! Oh Frank!!

I hate littererssss!!!

I walked into "town" today. I had to get one of those tax-book-thingys. It took me about 35 minutes to get downtown. Pretty good. Went for a coffee at the local cafe/flower shop.(!?) Yeah, B-ville has two of them? Weird. It is middleage/old lady central. It is fun to sit, listen, and write down the weird things that they say. They are so different than my age group. Compliment your face/talk behind your back. Yikes!
When I was walking I was really appalled at all of the garbage on the side of the road. Where does it come from? People walking? I think it is the people driving by. They throw it out the window!! Horrible. When I go for a walk on the side road by my house there are beercans or empty mickeys every 10 feet or so. Huh? why? Seems strange. I picture a single man in a pick up truck. He is on his way home from?...somewhere....and he likes to drink....and drive. Vodka and beer relax him....driving stressed him out. Yikes...maybe I shouldn't pick a different road. Would it be crazy if I took a bag and wore some gloves on my next walk? Do my part. I hate seeing the garbage. Makes me angry. DAMN YOU GARBAGE!!!
whoa. okay...
Tomorrow I am going to take some pics of the garden. I still have to cut out some weeds and hoe it up.
So the other night I let Frank outside. He was out for awhile and it was getting dark out. I went to the back door...not there, the front door...not there. So I went to the side of the house, calling his name. He was over at the neighbours. He was lying on their front steps, like it was his house. When I called his name he came running and meowing. It was like he knew he was doing something wrong. Funny cat.

My new hair!! and handsome Frank!!
