A little message for you

Dear friends, we miss visiting you, reading your blogs and commenting your posts, and we want to apologize for not visiting you as much as we used to (and as much as we wished to !). Life has been crazy for our girl the last two years : being a school principal is a hard job, and even more difficult these days. It wears me out just thinking about it…

We’ve had less time to visit everyone, Claire has had less time to take awesome pictures of us and less time to blog. But we’ll always be here, we love you all too much !

We’ll take one day after another, and enjoy every time we’ll have time to visit you.

Every year we participate in a gift exchange organized in the Cat Blogosphere (thanks Paula ! ).

PIXIE : On the last day of 2021, we received a package, and I opened it a few days later, because Zorro was too busy watching for voles in the garden…

All the gifts were beautifully wrapped, and we’ve been spoiled :

It was obvious that, given the color, this adorable Christmas sock was for me :

And then there was this: an incredible toy !

It’s a glove; at the end of each finger of it is hung a mouse. I love this thing !

And don’t worry, Zorro could also enjoy all these gifts when he came back from the garden before our New Year’s Eve celebration.

A big thank you to TBT (Mark) and the Mews (Marley, Ayla, Laz and Lori) !

Bye bye 2021 !

Snow appears before Christmas. We refused to mention it before, but COVID and its suite of health measures punctuated the year, and limited social life and leisure for our humans again. When is this gonna stop ?

Claire’s work is exciting and she likes it very much, but we have noticed for more than a year that we now have less time to visit you and comment on your blogs : we do the best we can, and thank you for your understanding.

Thank you very much for all the great cards we’ve received, either by mail or electronically, we’ll show them to you next year as they continue to arrive.
