That Cat

This husband of mine…

was a packaged deal...

To love him...is to love his furry friend...his buddy for 13 years...Simba...Simba Bo Bimba...Fat Cat….Mr. Baggy Pants…Best Friend...
 
It is quite obvious... that in BFF status this old gal ranks 2nd...behind Mr. Baggy Pants...for EACH and EVERY time the house is entered...Mr. Baggy Pants is greeted with…well hello Best Friend in the Whole Wide World...did you miss me... 

Every...single...time...
 
Best Friend is cozy in the downstairs family room...keeping allergens away from 2nd Place BFF...but Best Friend is sneaky...leaving behind evidence of adventures...beyond his gated community...

Detective Me begins interrogations... 
 
What’s up with this fruit?..
Oh...that sneaky cat,..he’s saving some for later...chuckles the Old Man...
 
How about the coffee cake...
That cat...he doesn’t like the edges...comes the Old Man response...
 
This old gal's pecan pie?...
That cat...he loves crust...is the Old Man reply... 

And now…. With Best Friend 50 miles away hanging with the grandkids…it appears he must be a Super Hero BFF Feline...
 
For even in his absence…the crust thief has struck again...
That sneaky cat...Detective Me questions...
Yep..chuckles the Old Man...followed with a...Best Friend in the Whole Wide World is pretty amazing...

And his beautiful bride...has to agree...

Heading South

​This husband of mine…

is always cold...

His beautiful wife…is always hot...

No matter the season...we are engaged in a never ending game of temperature ping pong…Ping-thermostat 78….Pong-thermostat 73….Ping-78…Pong-73…Ping-window closed….Pong-window opened…Ping-fan off….Pong-fan on… Ping-Wearing heavy sweater and jeans….Pong-shorts…

To avoid the Cold Weather Grinch… these old birds...checked out places...to migrate….

Big cities…small towns…glamping resorts in the middle of nowhere...it was a grand and successful adventure...

With daily swipes of that weather app…58 degrees here…80 there…32 degrees here…60 there..the winning bell clangs…

Hot days for Cold Weather Grinch...cool nights for Hot Weather Grinch...

It’s all about compromise...

We are good to go…it's time to fly south...

And this husband of mine…..agrees...
