all the news that isn't

My 250 feet of coax cable arrived at work today, so I gaffed it to my bike carrier (didn’t have the proper bungees) and brought it home. Celli quickly gave her nod of approval.

Really need a wider angle lens… 🙂 The furballs seem to like it!

We’re now out of wood.

A last chance to wrap up in a blanket with a friend.

And we had the screen closed. Guess who got a bath tonight…

While living in JC, our vet was 2 blocks away. So we never got real cat carriers, but used the cardboard ones we got from the humane society. Since we’ll be driving to the vet now, we had to pick up real carriers, and we’ve left them out to let the cats give them a once over.

We’ve determined the tree needs to come down the next day or two, as it’s dropping needles on its own. So Adrienne suggests we take a quick photo with the cats. I’m somewhat embarrassed by the quality of it (out of focus, poor lighting etc.), but I hope you’ll enjoy nonetheless!

Here are some photos from our Christmas morning. In his stocking, David found a remote controller for his camera, so he placed the camera on the fireplace mantle and tried it out. Here’s the first pic:

Adrienne was so ecstatic that she had to close her eyes to keep it all in!

David opening some music:

And of course Dudley participated in his own way.

So far a nice relaxing Christmas. Hope you’re having the same!

I like to think of this pair as the Ole and Lena of pumpkins.

And here are our great, but lazy late afternoon sun-soaking cats:

Celli gets in tall box, naps.

Celli gets out of box, easy.

Dudley must have what Celli has.

Coda: Fat cat Dudley very un-graciously makes his way out of the box…
