Changes.....<br />
<br />
There are one or two really ugly people who read my blog and leave nasty comments.<br />
It is always the same and they don't quite understand the concept of leaving hate mail on a forum where they can be edited /and or deleted .<br />
They get deleted but still come back and leave something else, childish , hateful and sometimes a little envious.<br />
Poor things ... it is sad to think of adults who have such empty lives that they fill their time hiding behind anonymous names, posting hateful and envious comments.<br />
<br />
So from now on, I will check all comments before publishing them.<br />
And if it is not enough .. I might have to forego any comments at all.<br />
<br />
<br />
With things being so quiet here right now / the Calm Before the Storm ... I don't have much to post about anyway ..<br />
<br />
I am sorry. I am sorry there are people like that who only spoil things for other people.<br />
They are meaningless to me, sad little people but not worth the bother .. so I will take a break,<br />
we will see how things develop and I wish you all , happy last days of Summer ..<br />
<br />
See you in the Fall .... </div>

Boy do I miss him. Weird that I miss him so many years later but I think having lost a few important people in my life, he was the first loss ... we were still in Argentina, he was older but not old .. he was healthy and then suddenly he wasn't .. He wasn't very ill for long .. He died at home with us holding him and whispering love words to him .. I still can't imagine having another dog .. will I compare them all the time or will a new dog fill the empty spot that Tate left.<br />
The cats don't want to hear about it. They have all given me paws down on that, even though we didn't even have a vote yet !<br />
My daughter just got a new baby. An infant ... Shitzu. I don't think there are many dogs in the world that are that cute when puppies. And comical.<br />
She has given me the idea that when the time and place is right, a new member might join my family .. the cats just have to adjust . When we got Tate, we had an Abyssinian cat named Sebastian..that cat was gorgeous and unlike the cats I have had ... and I have had cats all my life.<br />
My grandmother bred Siamese cats We hated each other, those cats and I.<br />
My cats , growing up, were always long haired and My cats .. sleeping with me, running to me .. mine.<br />
Now I have 3 cats. I adopted 2 and inherited one.<br />
They are all my babies now .. I am officially the Cat Lady.<br />
But I sure wish that boy was still around .. he would have made so many things easier for me .. being alone for the first time in my life .. He was such a good boy.<br />

My Glamorous Life </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I tend to cats. I have 3 of my own ..and now there is a sweet young thing that comes to my door each night hoping for a bite to eat and possibly a cuddle . The human that is supposed to be caring for this little cat has his head up his *** so it has been made clear that when my cats leave food in their dishes, it will not be thrown out but given to a little cat who will appreciate it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think on my small list of Things I Hate ... People like the man that owns this little cat, is at the top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A sweet little grey cat with a couple of terrible scars on her legs, wandering around loose in a condo community with a forest ( complete with scary wild things) in back and 3 alligators in the pond.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And this knucklehead lets his cat out every night ..</div>

My Cats</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Minette is the same, my beautiful sleek blue beauty. A real Mamas girl...which is fine with me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Old Merlin, my magical old cat.. he moves slowly, he naps often .. but he is a cat .. and I adore him.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Honey, my inheritance .. huge, sweet, funny .. I hit the cat jackpot when I acquired her and the rest of my Cat Family..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will need another inheritance to keep feeding them ! I might have to put them to work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What kind of job (besides mousers) does a cat do ?</div>

I have not blogged here in a while and Blogger doesn't know what to do with itself.<br />
<br />
I am living in Florida, in a beautiful townhouse in a private gated place where there are woods full of creatures and a State Park on one side ... that is my view . Lucky me.<br />
<br />
I am homesick for New York every day . Poor me.<br />
<br />
The cats are perfect ... they are sweet, loving , funny and can be annoying but overall, I am very happy that I have them.<br />
<br />
I want to make plans for my future.<br />
It is difficult in a lot of ways .. I can dream off all kinds of things but putting things into motion is the hard part.<br />
<br />
so here we are in Florida for now ... hola ..<br />

There he is ... my Good Boy. <br />
It has been a long time now, I still miss him.<br />
There are days that I wish he was here because I get nervous being alone and there are days I miss him because he was always fun .. if a dog can be a clown, Tate was often a clown. He would wag his tail and grin like a fool when he made me laugh .. He knew exactly what he was doing.<br />
<br />
This photo is from the short time when we lived in Florida .. a number of years ago.<br />
Before we visited Portland, Oregon and fell in love with that city and moved there ... where Tate became a City dog ...Oh the stories that Pup could tell.<br />
<br />

It has cooled down to what I think is Florida Winter .. but my air conditioner went on at around<br />
4-5:00 am and we were freezing until I got up at 6:00 am and turned it off.<br />
I thought it was off anyway ... I am going to learn the ABCs of Florida air conditioning today.<br />
<br />
I only used to get up at 5 or 6 am when I was going to be leaving for an airport .. or if the baby woke up for a bottle.<br />
Look what my life has come to ~<br />
<br />
We have a change of scenery , of a sort.<br />
Dark grey skies , wintery looking .. I don't mind.<br />
<br />
TGIF ....what are your weekend plans ?<br />

When they aren't sunny and blue, they look like this. Summer afternoon storms.<br />
Sometimes we get lucky and nothing else happens, the sky looks threatening and that is all.<br />
Since living here, I am enchanted with the massive clouds that build up .. I think the flatness of the land and the lack of trees in my way , I can appreciate the clouds here better.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In the Winter when you still suffer anxiety at the thought of snow, you stop and think, it doesn't snow in Florida. My stay here so far has been anxiety free ... until now.<span style="font-size: 12.8px;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://68.media.tumblr.com/ed8e513412962a2a6b6830be0e335bd6/tumblr_oqxzcfouX31qgju3co1_540.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="405" data-original-width="540" src="https://68.media.tumblr.com/ed8e513412962a2a6b6830be0e335bd6/tumblr_oqxzcfouX31qgju3co1_540.jpg" /></a></div>
But along with the lack of snow, is the lack of that feeling and the sight of Autumn, my favorite time of year.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://68.media.tumblr.com/8c9387f79f03bbdc516385e68930a089/tumblr_op6cq92Zfd1qgju3co1_540.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="314" data-original-width="540" src="https://68.media.tumblr.com/8c9387f79f03bbdc516385e68930a089/tumblr_op6cq92Zfd1qgju3co1_540.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And now, just to be sure that I am not too relaxed and feeling too safe .. there are Hurricanes here and there and now we are getting warnings of our own .. rain , lots of rain, flood type rain. Wind, with a forest behind my house .. tall trees .. wind .. floods .. I think there is something almost Biblical about the weather forecast ..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
time to get out the umbrellas !</div>
