Celebrating a year of adoption and blogging!

Your blogger.

Those danged blinds!

It is September. It was a year ago that I was adopted...the 7th of September to be exact. My very first post was Sept. 10. Wow! That is hard to believe! And here I am, a year later, back where it all started, at Timber Lake, having a very good life...just like Mommy promised me a year ago when we talked over Labor Day about the possibility of me going home with her. So one year of my 20-year contract is gone, and boy did it fly by!

My brother and I hit it off the second we were reunited, but it took Tacumwah a very long time to like me. We play together now and she doesn't ever hiss at me any more. I am not afraid of her and we both initiate games, but even though I am almost twice her size, I know who is boss.

Mommy is my favorite human and I still haven't warmed up a whole lot to Mommy Bonnie. She is very nice to me, but I can't get over that she wanted Mommy to find me a home and separate me from my brother forever. I still think that if I let my guard down, she may ship me off somewhere. So I don't love on her or anything. I just kind of tolerate her.

Mommy is on vacation and it is nice having her home for a couple weeks. She has been working in the vineyard. Today she went shopping with Mommy Bonnie for the staples...cat food, ice cream, and beer and wine!

Because Mommy has had a cold, she hasn't done much reading or movie watching. She just wants to get better so she can go to her next sleepover on the 16th. She has a book on reserve at the library...E.L. Doctorow's latest book, Homer and Langley. She is looking forward to receiving it.

I guess I am done for today. This will be the last big weekend at the campground so there may be lots of people about.
