Good Morning and Chit Chat Thread

[Nardonius]

Good morning, VVers and tired Ty! Come on girl, we can make it...Friday is right on the horizon.

Does anybody else leave their TV on for their cat while you're away at work? Am I a bad cat mama? I'm not sure it's good for kitty jr to be watching so much TV.

I have a 1 year old puppy that we have to leave home for most of the day during the week. We leave Animal Planet on for her every day.

Good evening...sorry Kitty didn't have a chance to stop in for a visit today.
Larkfour..sounds like you got yourself a nice little set up for dripping I don't have the patience... Sure wish the rain you had would have made it our way...but not. Triple digits for third day in a row and more to come...yuck..
I'm a tired one tonight...so gonna get to bed early...everyone have a great evening..

 

[kittypie]

Poor IowaGal, I can tell the awful heat and drought are wearing on you. We're going to have to call in v8 and her rain dance posse! I hope you get some relief soon, I really feel for ya.

 

[kittypie]

bigoted, if you're out there...just wanted to let you know I'm still thinking of you. We'd love to hear from you when you're up to it. (((hug)))

OMG....OMG....OMG.... I put a brand new 2.0 Cisco atty on my twist and my Blue Violet is awesome, awesome, and dare I say awesome!!! Hope to heck I don't burn up this atty before I learn how to use it properly. (I have had a problem with a variety of cart-o-tire draws, in the past, on the little 3.2V Ego.) Fingers crossed

I am really liking the longer battery of the 1000 mah Twist.

Oops should have made the pic a bit smaller.

 

[kittypie]

Larkfour, that's a beaut! (A smaller pic would not do it justice)

Awww. You dont have anyone who could take her on a walk for an hour or 2 during the day? At that age they get lonely quick : -/ Cats are a bit different, more independant and napp-ish.

Nice. I have the 650 version. Its nice but it doesnt last as long as id like. On the upside, it only takes 1 and a half hrs to charge. May get another or the 1000 version for nights out. I love my KGO's but I feel like I took a step backward when I use them for backup now, lol.

Nardonius, what kind of puppy do you have? Do you have to crate him/her? It seems everyone I know now crates their dogs, at least when they're young. Even the shelters up here want you to agree to use a crate before they'll let you adopt.

As for kitties.....mine is now an old man of 18 and is NOT independent or nappy. He spends hours every day howling (literally) outside the bathroom door until I give him a bath. I can't even have a shower without him joining me!

We finally got some rain here and the temps dropped from 115 to 70 tonight! I hope everyone else gets relief soon.

Good Morning Everyone....

Perfect top o'the page post, ty. I'm just going to sit here and appreciate it for a while.

I am not worthy. I've been letting kitty jr watch General Hospital.

Shes a mutt basically. We haven't gotten her tested yet but we're certain she's part Border Collie. Based on her size (about 35 lbs) and the nature of her coat the rest is either Flat Coated Retriever (if both her parents were on the small end for the breeds) or Cocker Spaniel. So she's either a Flat Coated Collie or a Border Cockie.

Unfortunately we do have to crate her as she gets separation anxiety after about 20 minutes (much less the 8 hours we're at work). We did try leaving her with the run of the downstairs during the day but then she ate a whole bunch of stuff along with 20+ DVD cases (no dvds just the cases and the paper covers) and did the same to a bunch of PS2/Gamecube game cases.

Other than her tendency to chew just about everything she can get her hands on she's a great dog. Incredibly smart, she even knows when its a Saturday b/c we always take her to Puppy Play Date on Saturdays (and its not just b/c we stay home, we stayed home one Friday and she was normal in the morning, next day, rambunctious and bonkers like all saturdays =P).

TGIF indeed, LOL! Good morning!

Good morning everyone, i've been up for a few hours but most of that was spent laying around on my day off.

Thw Border Collie part of her will make the seperation anxiety. That breed needs alot of attention - usually one of the most common kind to end up in shelters because owners don't understand.

Ever consider a dogwalker? I used to pay a family member to take my dogs out halfway through the day to break-up the time for them.

OK, the end is near! Or rather...the beginning...of the weekend!

I got some beautiful garden fresh Japanese eggplant this week, so I'm going to make a big, fat eggplant parmesan.

What do you all have going on?

 

[Swer3397]

I got an order of Vanilla Mint I gotta make. Really havent found any other faves, despite sampling at least 10 different liquids : /. Some are okay some are not for me but all the while those minty flavors are still the one. If anyone has any flavor suggestions I will try 'em, but I can't really afford to be sampling randomly as much as I am...gotta cut down a bit and just order my supplies, lol. Was hoping I would come upon another "all day" vape but nothing yet other than my VM/BCM.

Good morning my friends hope ya'll doing well.. Ramadan just started here and " Fasting " isn't easy as last years :/
