Making the bed or
\nCats and Other Household Pests<\/p>\n
For those of us who have cats you’ll understand this next story.\u00a0 Let’s start with my Beloved.\u00a0 David is a messy sleeper.\u00a0 He’s active and when he gets up in the morning the covers are in complete disarray.\u00a0 He likes to stick his feet off the end of the bed, which untucks the sheets helping to cause said disarray.\u00a0 Me, I’m the opposite.\u00a0 I can get into bed, sleep all night and wake up the next morning, get out of bed and barely move the covers.\u00a0 I don’t like my feet stuck out.\u00a0 The bellsnickle will get my toes.\u00a0 It’s not a good thing.<\/p>\n
Needless to say, we have to remake the bed every day.\u00a0 Well, I<\/em> have to remake the bed everyday.\u00a0 I like tidy covers.\u00a0 David doesn’t care.\u00a0 But he loves me, so he helps me remake the bed.\u00a0 Well tonight my Archimedes was in full blown play mode.\u00a0 Those of you who have cats know<\/em> what is coming next.\u00a0 Everything was a toy.\u00a0 My toes, fingers, my\u00a0shirt… everything.\u00a0 So I pulled the blankets and quilts off the bed and left the sheet and Archimedes on the bed.\u00a0 Getting the bedding off the bed was a treat.\u00a0 Everytime I would pull one piece off, Archimedes would jump on it and ride it to the end of the bed, biting at the covers.\u00a0 And then try to bite at my fingers as I pulled him off the covers.\u00a0 I tried to get Archi off the bed… but it was like trying to keep a piece of styrofoam at the bottom of a pool.\u00a0 Not happening.<\/p>\n Archimedes & the Sheet.\u00a0 So… I pulled up the sheet and the cat, because… well, I would have had more luck stopping a nuclear reaction than getting Archimedes to stop helping me make the bed.\u00a0 Archimedes grabbed and bit and kicked and just generally had a whopping good time as I tried to pull the sheets up to the pillow.\u00a0 He managed to get under the sheet at one point.\u00a0 Every little move of the sheet was another joyful grab from under the sheet.\u00a0 Paws & Claws and Teeth.\u00a0 Finally… step 1 complete.\u00a0\u00a0 Next came the small comforter.\u00a0 And more play.\u00a0 Archi just had a blast.\u00a0 Sliding under the comforter, grabbing my fingers, biting my fingers, biting the comforter, just more general cat fun.\u00a0 So much fun.\u00a0 And the of course, when the comforter stopped moving for a minute… out popped the little black furry head with the look of, “Hey, I’m not done playing here!\u00a0Keep going.”<\/p>\n Well 3 throw blankets, 2 quilts, a down blanket and 15 minutes later… the bed is finally made.\u00a0 With one rather large lump dead smack in the center.\u00a0 I guess I could have made it easier if I didn’t trace some circles on the bed with my hand.\u00a0 But Arhicmedes was having so much fun.\u00a0 So all of you out there who have a cat and have made a bed… you know what I’m talking about.\u00a0 You know how much fun the cats have with making the bed.<\/p>\n And that was that little adventure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Making the bed or Cats and Other Household Pests For those of us who have cats you’ll understand this next story.\u00a0 Let’s start with my Beloved.\u00a0 David is a messy sleeper.\u00a0 He’s active and when he gets up in the morning the covers are in complete disarray.\u00a0 He likes to stick his feet off the …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[193,198],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-91","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-adventures-on-mill-road","7":"category-catskittens","8":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taciej.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
