I can attest to the fact that adding another cat can make a person (and probably a cat, too) warmer. Sometimes, I get enough cats sleeping in my bed with me that I almost start feeling too warm.
National Backward Day. I found a list of suggestions how one might observe National Backward Day. Here goes -
This day is very popular with school-aged kids, but there is no age limit on who can participate in all of the backward fun. So EVERYONE, let’s have some fun!!
FUN FACT: Leonardo da Vinci wrote backward. Not only did the artist and inventor write from right to left, but he also wrote his letters backward.HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalBackwardDay
After polling several National Day Calendar staff members, we opaquely have an idea on how to celebrate this day.
Go out the back door. I already use my back door more than my front because my car is parked in the back of the house. And I don’t have a front yard, so when I spend summer days outside, I sit in the back yard.Have dinner for breakfast and breakfast for dinner. I sometimes eat “breakfast food” for dinner.Instead of coming unglued when you’re upset, get glued.
Add coffee to your milk.
Add ice cream to your chocolate.Do your work in reverse order.
Say, “Goodbye,” instead of “Hello,” when answering the phone.
Twiddle your pinkies not your thumbs.
Wear your sweatshirt backward.
Write your name backward.
Write an entire sentence backward. Fun like sounds that.
Run the bases in baseball backward.
Watch a movie backward.Read a book starting with the last page. Some of the graphic novels actually read that way.
Play a record backward. I wouldn’t know how to do that. My record player only turns one direction
To marilynnbyerly from yesterday’s comments – about memorizing a poem in school – When I was in first grade, we had to memorize the poem “The Owl and the Pussycat” To this day, I can still recite most of it. Oddly enough, I had to memorize a poem (of my own choice) in 8th grade and I memorized one called “Mr. Nobody” (I wonder why I didn’t take the easy way out by reciting “The Owl and the Pussycat”?) and I can barely remember any of that poem at all.
To Perkycat from yesterday – I work at Walmart. I don’t know just where the Claussen’s Bakery is that brings us all those wonderful rolls and treats, but there’s a Dunkin’ Donuts just a couple blocks away from us and they don’t bring us day old treats. I don’t know what got the Claussen’s Bakery guy to start bringing us goodies all of a sudden. He’s been doing it for several months now. And we love it! Not good for the waistline though because some of those rolls are loaded with calories.
With all the power outages we’ve been having, I finally resorted to buying a hot water bottle on Amazon. At least they’ve told us the date of the next one, so I’ll be ready!
Foster kitty is feeling his oats and chasing/being mean to Blackjack. So, he’s being confined to his room. He’s going to PetCo for adoption tomorrow.
Sad news about Patches: He most likely won’t make it until Monday. The lung cancer got aggressive and it won’t be long now. On top of that, the lady who adopted and loves him, just lost her job so I’m going to pay for the final vet visit today. She loves this kitty so much and it’s breaking her heart.
Cats are always good to have around when it’s cold, or even when it’s warm. Heck, cats are good to have around, no matter what the temperature is. On another note, saw some seagulls on the way to work today.
