2012 Year In Review

Celebration

When Facebook decided that they could give me the top 20 items for the year, I realized that my Christmas card often serves as a collection but that didn't quite get done this year.   Can you tell that I love living in Maui!Our almost annual trip to California Wine Country in January.   Great … [Read more...]

Happy Father’s Day

I love Maui mornings!  Every morning this time of the year, I go out to pick mangos, pumelos and papaya.  I'm always happy to live here.  But today,  there is only one other place I'd like to be and that is with Dad in Florida (or Minnesota). My parents are enjoying traveling a lot lately.  My … [Read more...]

Project with Truffle

Sunday mornings when I'm not working,  I'm usually out doing garden projects. Today though we're inside because the house is still being painted.  A hot glue gun and a roll of sisal rope and Truffle's scratching poles are almost like new. She still prefers to eat my anniversary roses though! … [Read more...]

And he worries that I won’t eat well if he doesn’t cook…

Shrimp Scampi - delicious! Many of you know that in our family, the traditional roles are - very different. I do all the house projects and yardwork. Peter does almost all of the cooking. Tonight, as he was leaving for a social media gathering, he said "Are you sure you are ok for making … [Read more...]

Happy Father’s Day and Sick Kitty

The only thing that multiplies is my number of blogs...which the number to maintain seem to be growing faster than the … [Read more...]

Truffle Update and Videos

Aloha,Peter has been giving me a hard time because I haven't been updating Truffle. Truffle has her own rules and is very good at ignoring everything. She is now officially bigger than Mooshie. Of course Moosh is skinny as her intensinal issues continue. But they get along pretty well. Truffle … [Read more...]

Kitty on prozac…

We took Mooshie back to the vet because her diarrhea, bowel issues and weight loss have continued. She seems to be doing better with Truffle, though Truffle can be a bit much for all of us at times! The vet told us about many options. Both our guts tell us that this was all either 1) Due to … [Read more...]

Having more fun with the Little One

I just read my sisters' post on New Beginnings. My only thought for 2009 is that I have to start having more fun! More fun = more energy = more productivity... I hope! So in that light, while I should be writing a professional blog that isn't much fun, I am again writing on the happenings with … [Read more...]

Kitties Together

This morning I got this photo of our 2 girls together. Ok, they were so busy eating that they wouldn't look up for me. Yes, Mooshie is actually stretched over Truffle to eat. I don't know why Truffle didn't move but they are getting a little more used to each other. Of course, Truffle is … [Read more...]

Uninspired and unfocused…

Aloha...Peter took new pics of little Truffle this morning so I had to blog. She had lost her mouse somewhere in the Christmas garland that I was going to hang up outside. Of course, the garland was originally on the dining room table but she decided that it was more fun on the floor.I'm trying to … [Read more...]
