one more banner…

i felt the need to change the banner again, adding a different photo. i realized that since we got Winnie on Sept. 29, 2002, he surely couldn’t have been more than a month old, so he must have been born in august sometime. to some totally rotten people who...

First photo of Winnie

on tuesday i was scrounging around in a cabinet, looking for frames to put some of winnie’s photos in, and i found yet another big stack of pictures. here’s the very first picture i took of winnie! i was ridiculously happy that i found it. he’s...

September 29th, 2002

That’s the day mom and i found winnie on the lake road. we were riding our bikes and suddenly heard a loud MEW from the side of the road, and stopped to see a tiny little grey kitten. somebody must have dumped him! people can be rotten. We decided that mom would...

Darling Winnie

is gone. He was such a sweet, loving, gentle, accommodating soul. We are so sad. I’m going to be posting many photos of him, because i keep going through my old pictures and finding so many. Friday night, kevin went to garrick’s house to watch a movie....

christmas…

i don’t have lots of photos from the holiday and i’m so over it now anyway, but i think this photo is very funny because why is kevin’s arm bent like that? he looks just about as uncomfortable as a person could be! funny. Mom, of course, always...

riley is finding it more and more difficult to just relax. many times the two kitties sleep side-my-side on top of their condo. i’m pretty sure there aren’t many other kitties who are this photogenic, always looking like they’re posing for a...

the rest of our trip to chicago…

whew, i really need to get back at this; need to finish up 2018 already! We had a massive snowstorm last night, maybe 8-10 inches? so now i’m able to sit around for quite a while. i took this photo of the building, lights and the moon as we strolled down...

WELCOME BACK, MOM!!!

I’ve had this site since 2004. quite a few years. mom used to read it, but then she didn’t open her computer so much, then she just stopped altogether. when she got a fancy new iphone she started playing some of the games that i played on my phone, and I...
