Missing Charlie

I still hear him in his litterbox in the bathroom, scratching around and tossing litter all over the floor. We miss him at night when he doesn’t sit by WM’s feet. I miss his big fatness crammed in between the sofa and the wall.

Meditating cat.

We ordered this fat orange cat statue. It goes with the meditating pig but more importantly it makes me remember my fat orange cat and smile.

    I enjoyed checking in on him for you. After you told me he liked feet, I would always be sure to sit on your couch, kick off my flip-flops and let Charlie get some happy foot rubs in 🙂 He was a sweetheart.

    I felt the presence of Ozzie and Cindy after we had put them to sleep. I still have Ozzie’s favorite toy and laid it beside him when he took his last breath. Cindy’s collar with the little bell on it is in the bookcase and I know I heard it jingle more than once after she was gone. It’s hard. I know.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
