Hi everyone. I must have been very good because Santa came early. Joanie, Emmy and I got the gift we asked for- a heated blankie big enough for us all to fit on at the same time.
Santa’s elves are getting lazy. They didn’t even wrap our gift- just a tag and a bow. Does anyone have the address for Santa’s customer service?
In other news, my folks had their annual party. The one day a year that they are extroverts. We were all locked in bedrooms for our safety. Mom made sure all the toys and the tv from their room was moved to a spare room for the kids to play with so we wouldn’t get disturbed.
I thought I was going to have a story about Mr. Potato Head’s missing lips, but mom found them when she went to unplug the tv. Remember the case of the missing kidneys last year? If not, click here.
Mom had a friend help her clean because she is lazy. Good thing he cleaned the ceiling fan because her niece’s hubby spun it around to amuse the baby. Mom would have been mortified if all the dust has come down like snow. My tip for you is to clean those ceiling fans if you are expecting company.
Well, that is all I have for today. I hope everyone has a nice Christmas and gets everything on their list.
We are joining Comedy Plus’ Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
A lovely big blankie for the three of you. That sounds like a great gift. Of course you were a good girl! You all were.
As for Santa’s (lazy) elves – well, it has been getting hard to find good help these days, but maybe the problem lies with the Management. Best not to say so, however, if you want to stay on the Nice List (mol).
Thank you. 🙂 Good point. XO
WOW, that ceiling fan tip is GREAT! Not to mention being put in a separate room when a party is going on. Mama is thinking of doing that herself, haha. Just kidding, mama used to have dinner parties all the time to try out recipes and we always had a New Year’s gathering here in the village with about 30 peeps. No longer. I think I hear a sigh of relief…..Have a beautiful warm and cozy Christmas.
Whoever went to those parties was very lucky to test your mama’s recipes. XO
That looks like a nice Blanket Rosie xoxo Little Miss Titch
Thank you. 🙂 XO
That blankie looks very cozy kitties. Hope your peeps had a wonderful extravert day 😀 Double Pawkisses from us to all of you🐾😽🎅
Thank you. 🙂 XO
And clean curtains, too…LOL! Ask me how I know that one!!
And look for cobwebs…teehee…housekeeping is not my forte either…only the bathroom and kitchen get regular attention…and the carpet…sheesh, those pups of ours leave clouds of fur!
Glad the party was a success.
I should have done the curtains too, but I did run the vacuum over them. 🙂 XO
Well we hope this comment posts but even if it doesn’t we needed to say what a joy it is to visit here ANY time of the year but especially the holidays. Sounds like you had a great Christmas party and we hope Santa brings LOTS of goodies to all of you!!!
Love, Teddy and Mom Pam
It posted. Sorry for all the trouble. We love you too. XO
This is the first time I’ve been able to see you. You all are very lovely kitties. That’s why you deserve a heated blankie. We want to thank your mommy for stopping by and seeing us so often all these years. I’m glad I can finally get into your blog, Merry Christmas from Precious
Thank you. 🙂 Merry Christmas!
A heated blanket sounds like the perfect gift.
In cold states it is, probably not in Florida. 🙂
Our heated cat bed was popular in West Virginia.
I bet it was. 🙂
Sounds like my house. Sgt Stripes has been using the spare bedroom. It’s only getting cleaned because my daughter and son-in-law will be using it Christmas Eve. (In our house, Santa never wrapped his presents. The elves were too busy doing other things.)
I think it is good to have guests sometimes so we’re motivated to clean. XO
Glad you all had a nice Christmas party and gifts. That blanket looks so soft and cuddly. 🙂
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Mom and I are BOTH grinning from ear to ear! Rosie, no one like you anywhere! You are the best gossip..er…I mean the best news reporter there is! Thank goodness the missing lips were found. I sure remember the missing kidneys!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Oh and about twice a year is all…but I do remind momma to dust all the ceiling fans! Seeing fuzz up there is a downer.
It was way longer than that since Mom cleaned ours- probably 2020 when she was trapped inside all the time. XO
Glad to see your blog is back up and running! My cats don’t like parties. It disturbs their routine! 🙂
Thank you. 🙂 Same here with the cats.
Clean the ceiling fan: check!
Definitely. 🙂
That’s a very nice gift for you, Joanie, Emmy, Rosie. Wishing you a joyous holiday season.
Thank you. 🙂 We hope you have a wonderful holiday too. XO
😻
Here’s the address you wanted: 123 Elf Road, North Pole, 88888.
Love the gift too. Always good to get gifts.
I’m so happy you had a great party and that you cleaned the ceiling fan. That would have been awful.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday, Ellen. Scritches to all the kitties. xo ♥
Thank you. 🙂 I plan to write to Santa about the lack of wrapping. XO
That is a lovely gift that Santa sent for you.
Thank you. 🙂 We love it. XO
Rosie I’m so happy for you that you got that heated blanket! I sure would love one! Thanks for all the tips you shared with us! 🙂 <3
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Do we ever know about the ceiling fan crud! I am thankful Mr. Potato head got his lips back. I knew Santa would come through with the heated blanket 🙂 I do remember the missing kidneys. I am thankful Mr Potato Head got his lips back! Rosie, you did a great job today!
Thank you. 🙂 We love the blankie. XO
Nice heated blanket. I’m sure you will all love it. Merry Christmas!
Thank you. 🙂 Merry Christmas!
Ooooo a heated blanket! We used to have one upstairs but it is now down in our human bro’s man cave…but we do have a heated mattress pad and us cats love it! We are glad the lips were found. Jeep being awesome. Purrs Marv
That sounds nice and warm too. 🙂 XO
Oooh, what a very nice and thoughtful gift. Judging by the weather reports, a heated blanket seems ‘pawfect.’
Yes, it is. 🙂

Wishing you good health, laughter, and love in your days,

Thank you. 🙂 Sorry we had technical issues for a few days. XO
Java Bean: “Company? What’s company?”
Lulu: “That’s when people who aren’t Mama and Dada come over to the house.”
Java Bean: “Eek! That sounds horrible!”
Charlee: “I agree with you, Bean!”
My cats agree too. 🙂 XO
Sometimes you have to focus on the gift, not the presentation.
Ceiling fan cleaning is one of those “do it the first weekend of the month” jobs, same as the A/C filters and cleaning gaskets on the fridge so you always remember.
That is wise. I should have had him clean the coils too. XO
I hope the party went well! I was just thinking about cleaning my ceiling fans! Sounds like I should do it.
It was fun. 🙂 Yes, clean those fans. XO
Oh my a heated blanket—-sigh. Sounds wonderful! Merry Christmas!
It is. Merry CHRISTMAS! XO

Glad Santa brought a heated blanket. Great gift!

Hooray for your blog being back up and running! Santa totally hooked you kitties up — that blanket sure looks delightful. 🙂
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Trying again, enjoyed seeing the kitties! XO
Thank you. 🙂 XO
That heated blanket is going to be put to good use this winter.
Yes, it is. 🙂 XO
You are the best family. And wrapping paper just wastes time/energy in my opinion.
Thank you. 🙂 That is a good point. XO
If we got a heated blankie we wouldn’t care if it was wrapped or not.
Good point. XO
Aww, the heated blanket is awesome! Everyone will enjoy it. xo
Thank you. 🙂 Yes, they are enjoying it and we benefit from it too. XO
