Just Us Girls

We all woke up to a bit of a wild morning.  The tail end of the storm that struck Sydney last week has crept across the Tasman and brought us rain and wind, not unusual for this time of year.  The saving grace is that it is not too cold, no need for blasting the heat pump.  The teenage nephew had to head home this afternoon, so mum let him sleep in til 11am.  That gave mum time to watch a couple of her programmes and finish a book.

After lunch at home there was a break in the clouds so they headed into town for some afternoon tea and a bit of a wander before heading for the train station for the nephew to catch the bus.  Mum had made him some rolls to take with him, as well as a couple of treats.

I have taken it easy today and am back on the bed.  I was busy showing Bud (the nephew) my favourite things, my scratcher and my mousie.  He was impressed by my toys.  So it is all quiet in the house tonight, me and mum are taking it easy.

  3. Poppy, dear, it's good of you to entertain Bud. He must be a very intelligent man -- able to appreciate a good scratching board and pretty green mousie!

  10. Sounds like you and the nephew really hit it off Poppy. The nephew is so fortunate to have such a loving aunt. And a loving kitty cousin. Mum's nieces and nephews live a long plane ride away. Meow from Jessica
