here we are

Christmas 2013 has come and gone and New Years followed close behind. I hope that yawl had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. Prince's last day of vacation was spent playing in the yard. He has been off for about two weeks and it was great having him around the house. We did lots of little things together which was so much fun for us ole folks. The first around here was sunny and warm but the second was very windy with an occasional snow shower. Then the bottom fell out last  night and we awoke to 13 degrees with a wind chill factor of 5 degrees. Today was the first sun rise we witness. It was pretty but not anything as spectacular as others we have had however it sure was pretty to us. The Tennessee hills were a true blue and the ones in the distances still have a blue hue. Maggie did not linger outside due to the temperature. Puppy came up yesterday and built a fire downstairs because I can no longer wrestle the back logs on the grate. I can keep it going but alas putting a back log on is a thing of the past. Yes, I am gonna try to be more like Clint Eastwood this year and know my limitations. Gotta stay upright. I figure I will get another outside kitty when the weather gets a little warmer. Moe never wanted to be shut inside so maybe the next one will like to sleep in the garage. If by accident Moe got shut in the garage his eyes would get bigger than saucers and he would climb up on top of the car trying to figure how to get out the windows. Therefore we always checked before the garage door came down at night because we did not wish to terrorize Mr. Moe. If we get another male cat, I plan to keep the Stooges theme and name him Larry. 
Since I have been spending time with Prince the computer has been very idyll and I did not send out my New Year cards. 
The Kitty Justice is to wish yawl a Happy New Year and hope 2014 will not be one we wish to forget.
