Ramblings-n-Writings

Archive for February 3rd, 2010

Ever have one of those days when you want to blog but can’t think of a single thing to write?

Yeah, I know it’s hard to imagine, but it’s happening to me. Ack!!! Usually the ideas are spinning in my head and I have little notes of things to blog about … but my note pile is exhausted and my head is silent.

I think part of my problem is I feel pressured to write at certain times because the “schedule post” option isn’t working on my blog. (The dreadful gremlins are back at it again!) So I feel like I have to write something on my “office” days instead of being able to write it whenever and just schedule it for later.

I suppose I could write the posts, save them as drafts, and just publish them on the days I want … but that requires remembering to actually publish them.

Since I’m having such a hard time finding things to write about, can you give me some suggestions?

• What do you want to know about me?
• Is there anything that I haven’t blogged about recently that you’re wondering about?
• Curious about my opinion on something or what I like/dislike?
• I’d love to start a blog series on something but am unsure of what. Any suggestions?

C is for … what else but CAT! Did you seriously think I would come up with a better C word? (I did … once. You can see the CAVES here.)

Sassy Lou is my only kitty furbaby that I have left. She’s definitely my little sweetie!

Most of my cat herd went to new homes this past summer / fall. It was starting to get too expensive paying for food, shots, flea prevention, and vet visits for 6 cats!!!

Winks and Sylvester, my two boys that I had for about 7 years, disappeared during 2009. Both went outside and never came home. Thankfully it wasn’t at the same time but about 9 months apart. Part of me wonders if they found new homes or exactly what happened.

Buttercup went to a new home not too far away along with two rescue kitties that were found along the road. (Yep, at one point, there were 8 cats/kittens in the house.) The lady that adopted them said all three were the best cats she ever had in her life!

Buttons moved in with a three-year-old girl and I’m positive that they are the best of friends and spend hours and hours playing together.

Penelope ventured to the next door neighbor’s farm where she has a barn full of mice all to herself. Why share a barn with other cats when you can have your very own? I still see her every couple of days on my way out of the hollow.

So while all of my furbabies have found new homes, I’m glad Sassy Lou is still around. She’s a great companion, prefers getting in my face when I type, and has the quietest meow of any cat. (Who wouldn’t love a quiet kitty?)

One day soon I’ll introduce you to the two kitties that I cat-sit during the week…
