Happy Mother’s Day, or, as Tabs calls it, “Employee Appreciation Day.” Today he granted me an audience with himself, which I enjoyed very much. We sat and read together and watched birds on the front steps.
*sigh* He’s not my little kitty boy anymore. 🙁 He’s a captain of industry, and he doesn’t have as much patience as he used to. Now he’s all about productivity when it comes to…pretty much everything, LOL. When we’re outside, he doesn’t like to just sit and chill quite as much as he used to. He’d rather patrol the circle or go exploring on the hill, so it’s a bit of a sacrifice for him to humor me by sitting and reading for a few minutes.
So I appreciate these moments.
I know he likes spending time with me, but he’d rather just go for a long walk.
Speaking of that, he still — STILL — even after all these years, pulls on his leash to go toward where we used to live in Mill Valley to the south. He must still remember our old home all those years ago… It’s been 10 years! But he still points and pulls us in that direction, and he’ll gaze off in the distance for a long time, like he’s thinking back.
I wish I could read his mind. Is he remembering another person he used to know back when he was an outdoor cat? Or is he wondering about other kitties? I don’t even know if he had siblings or if he remembers his mommy cat…
OK, that was sad. 🙁
Give your furry friends extra love today. Talk to you soon. I hope you’re doing something fun.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Awww Tabs looking toward the old home 🙁 Kitties are so good.
Happy Mother’s Day! I just spent a lot of time in bed snuggling with the furbabies.
Oh that is the best! You are the best momma to your fur kids and I just know they appreciate you!
Happy Mother’s Day to a beautiful soul and mama to a great little girl and furry boy.
Thank you, Nicole. I read your comment from yesterday about the negativity being crippling and I totally get it. I feel that way at times too. Have you ever heard of The Five-Minute Journal? I’ve been using it for the past few months and it has helped me a lot with trying to focus on the good things.
Happy Mother’s Day, Miss Karen!
Hi Denise,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the wonderful comments you’ve left over the years. You are such a sweet person, and I’m glad I met you through the blog! Hugs to Roscoe!
Happy Mother’s Day! Hope you are having a wonderful day!
Thank you, Tatiana! Did you get to talk to your daughter today? I hope so.
Yup. Dear Hubs is away on a business trip so she drove down and we walked downtown and got French pastries and Venetian coffee for breakfast. Then walked to the mall and had poké for lunch and browsed Sephora and Nordstrom together. Then she took me out for dinner and gelato. More than I could have asked for. Just a nice day hanging with my Girl.
?Happy Mother’s Day to you and your mom ?
Hi to ElHubs , Connor Claire and Tabs ?
Thanks, Michele. I hope you had a nice day too!
Happy Mother’s Day, Karen! Glad Tabs gave you the day off so you could
enjoy your special day. Hope all of you have a wonderful Sunday!
Hi, Daphne! We had a wonderful day. I hope yours was great too. 🙂
Happy Mother’s Day, Karen!
Thank you, Amy! How was your day? I hope you (and your broccoli-eating kitty) are doing great.
It was good! My mom and brother came for an overnight visit. Mexican food with margaritas was the Mother’s day dinner of choice and both of the cats hid upstairs all night because they are terrified of my brother. No worries though. He is gone now and their peaceful cat lives have resumed.
I don’t think I’ve ever commented that I really enjoy reading the Sundays with Tabs postings. They are so clever and well-done. Happy Mother’s Day to you!
Hi Jan,
I’m glad you enjoy them. I love doing these posts and sharing Tabs! Hope you had a wonderful Sunday.
Happy Mother’s Day Karen! Hope you, Tabs, Conner Claire and El Hubs have a wonderful awesome day!!
Hi Cheryene,
Thank you, friend. We had a great day! I hope yours was nice too.
Happy mother’s day to you, for your beautiful girl and your fur baby. Have a nice day with your family.
Have you ever thought of creating a calendar for 2019 of Tabs in his adverts and also relaxing at home and selling it on ConnorClaire?
He is the most photogenic cat ever and I’m sure lots of people would buy it!
Happy Mother’s Day – I hope you had a great one! 🙂 I tried your lip combo (nude with gloss bomb) and thought it was great – of course! Thanks for the rec!
