It's National Friendship Day!!

Hi all! It's Cody and I just wanted to take a moment to thank every one who wished me a Happy Gotcha Day on July 28th  , we replied to as many as we could, and we apologize for not responding to everyone who was kind enough to leave a comment. It was MUCH APPRECIATED!! 



I thought that since this is National Friendship Day it would be the purrfect time to say THANK YOU!!!

I am blessed to have many friends!

Now, I haven't been the best friend lately because I have barely been around on MANY blogs! Mom has been focused on the impending arrival of her new step grandchild (the FIRST!!)  who is due any day now! Also, Mom is trying to quit smoking so a few days a week she has been going to water exercise and she has been swimming laps. Mom and I often don't get online til evening, which makes us backed up on email, blogging and keeping up with many impawtant events. We are doing our best to visit everyone 

BUT...............

Mom says we have been bad friends  because there is a Feedburner issue again and ALL of the Blogger blogs (and other blogs that use Feedburner to deliver blogs) are NOT showing up in Mom's inbox. We don't mean to not be visiting, and we apologize! The last time this happened it lasted 4 weeks, Mom and I hope it doesn't last that long!

So, please know that we appreciate each and every one of you and send you lots of love...........the rest of 2018 is gonna be kinda crazy, we are working on our "new normal", but since Mom says she has never been normal, and I haven't either, we're just gonna be crazier than we usually are! Mom and I are hoping you will still hang in there with us!!

Love, Cody (and Mom too!)

    WOW! Wishing your mom much good luck on the quitting smoking! Mom Peggy did it 26 years ago and it was the hardest thing she ever did, but she did it and so will your mom!!! We're rooting for her!

  12. Happy Friendship Day, Cody and Caren!

    We haven't been around much either. The main reason is it's just too hot to be on the computer at the moment and the heat makes Mum irritated as you know :)

  13. Happy Friendship Day! I am glad you are my friends. Well done giving up smoking, and keep it up. I gave up 45 years ago next New Year's Day. I had tried lots of times by doing it gradually and it didn't work. One day I decided I wasn't going to have another cigarette, and I haven't.

  23. Cody we realized that humans lives are so much more complicated than we can imagine. So much drama in them too, so we truly understand why you are not too present in the blogworld lately. Dontcha worry buddy, our mom is busy lately too.

  24. Hi, Cody! You are a good furend tome too. Sorry that your Mom is so busy...and yup, I know exactly how that goes...we get all behind here too. Then she just wants to start where we are instead of checking the 'missed' posts.

    So then at night she pics a few and gets caught up, while the others continue to 'back log...sigh...

    Congrats on quitting the smokes! That is furbulous!
    And congrats, too on soon to be a family with a wee grand one!

    Purrs! Dalton adds some waggles:)
