Oscar and Stewie are on Snuzzy today! Snuzzy is a dogster and catster site where "cute and fuzzy collide". There is plenty of ridiculous cuteness on the the website.
We found these pans at TJ Maxx and I thought they were so cute. Red doesn't even match my kitchen. Stewie is suspicious that they are for cooking kitties in.
Silly Stewie. Don't you know kitties aren't for eating? Kitties are for wearing ridiculous hats found in clearance bins.
I was still feeling pretty sick today so I stayed home from work. I got to see what Oscar and Stewie do all day when I am at work. This is about it. Follow sunbeams from room to room.
We got Stewie a cat condo and the third level has a hole cut out for the kitties to bat at the toys through. But what does our cat do? He lays across the hole and lets his belly pokes through.
Another
year has passed and so I have added another year to our New Years
Day tradition. I took a picture of each of us in front of my
grandma's fridge after lunch.
Apparently,
Oscar and Stewie did not get the memo regarding wearing their glasses
this year.
Does this look weird to you? A few weeks ago I came home from work to find
this scene in my living room, all three of them perched on the couch... Oscar and
Stewie staring straight ahead... Aaron seemingly oblivious. It just
seems odd. I am convinced that I have a strange cat, a strange dog...
and most likely though not apparent in this photo, a strange husband.
I have two Halloween inkjet projects over at 1000
Words today. The first are Oscar and Stewie masks. Everyone
in the office agrees they are eerie looking.
If you aren't sure what to be for Halloween you could go as a pug or a
kitty.
There are also downloadable templates for Halloween Oscar and Stewie
lollipop covers. Kinda like my lollipop
cozies but faster and easier to put together.
Oscar and Stewie are demanding compensation for the use of their
likeness. Greedy little critters.
To download the pdf templates and see instructions on how to
make the masks and lollipop covers check out 1000

It is high time I wrote about our completed kitchen tile project. We actually finished it a couple months ago, but my kitchen hasn't been tidy enough to take "finished" pictures. Hah!
I was so sick of our old lineoleum floor... it had little nicks and cuts and I just couldn't get the spot where Oscar comes in from the backyard clean. We picked these brown tiles and chose a dove grey grout to match. It really wasn't too much work to lay down the tile. We did it in a weekend. We bought a tile cutter for less than $100 and it was so worth it. Aaron did the cutting and laying while I pretty much handed him tiles and kept the four legged critters out of the kitchen. You can see more pictures of the process on my Project Gallery.
Oscar and Stewie approve of the new tile floor.
While we had everything pulled out of the kitchen we painted it a nice butter yellow. I like how it looks next to our Tiffany blue foyer. Mmmm butter.
Aaron found this cat tie at Target for 75¢. I think it is
hilarious. I can't even look at Stewie when he has it on. He doesn't
mind it at all and I swear he struts around when he has it on. (for the
commenter who wondered how Oscar is doing, note he is there in the
background staring at his empty supper dish)
"Helloooo? Helloooo? Anyone out there? Could you come in and take this
silly thing off me?"
Yesterday... Tina, Shruti and I volunteered for the United
Way Day of Caring. We spent the day weeding and painting at
the St. Johns Home.
It was nice to be outside and I think the garden area will be really
nice for the elders.
Being there made me think I should take Oscar and Stewie in as
therapy pets.
They would have to go through training but I think they would brighten
some elder's days.
I finally changed my banner over to a spring version. Maybe
the weather will follow. In that case just two last winter pictures I
found on my camera. Pets in snow.
Before anyone calls the SPCA... Stewie WANTED to go outside in
the snow. He cried and scratched at the door so much we finally said
fine! We thought after this episode he would want no more of that.
Huh-uh... he wanted to go right back out into the snow.
I got a Sylvester and Tweety cat grass kit for Christmas and since it
doesn't look like spring outside, I thought I would plant some inside.
It grows faster than Stewie can eat it. It doesn't help that he nibbles
it ever so daintily.
I had some extra seeds so I planted them in an old coffee cup. I
thought it was so cute I moved my little sage plant over into a coffee
cup too.
I finally uploaded my Through the Viewfinder pictures for the World Through the Viewfinder Day group on flickr. I used my two favorite subjects for my pictures. They are so good at sitting laying still for the camera.
I missed the cutoff for judging but that is okay because I am actually a judge myself! There are so many great shots... it's gonna be hard.
Something weird is going on at our house. The pictures illustrate the recent events. Oscar is sleeping in Stewie's bed and Stewie is eating Oscar's food. Even stranger... the other just stands by... "Oh fine, I'll bunk in your bed then." "Having a snack? That's okay... I'll just wait til you're done."
It's like Freaky Friday but with pets instead of Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster.
