Yes, I was. Spent one and half hours on Friday trying to find a video I liked and gave up. Saturday I played couch potato. So on behalf of those of us who need to slow down and nap at times, I give you this fabulous clouded leopard cub who is a pro snoozer. Look as those paws!
Got a busy week ahead? Remember this cutie cub. Hope you had a great weekend!

If you’re one of the three people on the planet who haven’t seen this video about brothers who pranked their little sister after her wisdom teeth were extracted, you’re in for a treat. I laughed so hard I cried when I saw it. It also made me incredibly grateful I grew up without brothers and YouTube. Thank you Lord!
Since she had cotton stuffed in her mouth, they even put subtitles for our viewing pleasure.
The prank went viral and caught Ellen’s attention as you can see from the second video. What makes me a proud woman veteran is to see how this young woman under the effects of anesthesia had the wits and gumption to keep it together to make decisions to protect her family from the zombie apocalypse. Then of course the whole cat thing. Spec Ops Cat approves!
Happy Quirky Friday and have a great weekend!

One of the most popular videos I’ve posted featured Twiggy the water skiing squirrel. So when I checked in on Twiggy today, seems they are making the rounds in Canada at the boat shows, complete with water safety gear. There have been several Twiggys it turns out.
Given we just had two days of 80 degree weather here in Oregon, water safety for squirrels and humans is a must. Hope you’re having a great weekend!

Between watching March Madness, shopping and getting ready for the Easter Bunny’s arrival, I’m behind on my posting. So what better way to enjoy the weekend than to see bunnies and cats getting along. These giant “baby” bunnies look pretty good size to me.
The house is stocked with chocolate eggs, pie and quiche, so we are good to go for family dinner tomorrow. Spec Ops Cat is resting up by taking lots of naps so he can be the furry host with the mostest.
Have a great weekend and hope you had a Happy Quirky Friday too!

The sun is finally out and it’s time to get in shape. Seems we should all follow Mik’s lead and stay limber by playing more soccer. This aging Oregon Zoo resident is keeping in top form with a fitness work out plan. Maybe the Thorns and Timbers need to check out his moves.
Spring is here, summer is on the way. Let’s play ball!

Spent part of the weekend reading my latest how to kill clutter book. I have at least a dozen of those guides. No matter how I try I’m always purging and cleaning out my desk, closets, cabinets, the garage, my purse and the pantry.
How do we get so much stuff? Part of my collections I give a pass; books, beads, bears, shoes and DVDs. And office supplies – I have an unholy addiction to office supplies. But if OfficeMax is closed, I’m covered, and so is most of Oregon if needed.
So while looking back at photos from March 2014, digital photo clutter, I happened upon a bunch of my favorite feline doing his best to help me organize. Not. These were three brand new blouses that I had laid out on the bed to put away. Before I could turn around and chant “blueberry pop tarts,” Spec Ops Cat made himself a new bed.
Not that he needed another bed, he has at least five “official” beds downstairs and three upstairs. But he felt the need to add a special frilly one to his collection. Good thing he’s cute, cuddly and performs perimeter patrol.
While vacuuming this past weekend I also had to move his toys. Not all his toys, just the bunch which are currently spread all over the house until I rotate them with his stash in the closet. Of all the toys I buy him and Grandma gets for him, the twist ties off the new electronic gadgets are his favorites.
I bet I could get my home organized, but all the books have never mentioned what to do with cat clutter. Perhaps that’s because we all know when it comes to our pets, they rule. A plaque I have says, “When all else fails, hug the cat.”
Who needs decluttering books anyway? Got pets? Got clutter? Enjoy it!
