Not That Spooky Sunday Selfies

Well, we have to fire petcretary; at least we would if it was all about the camera thing...since she did not even use it this week. Excuses? Too busy, too cloudy, too rainy and all those lame ones we hear all the time...though it has been cloudy or rainy quite a lot.
Good thing we have some in the backup/archives to rely on. At least they don't give complaints/excuses.
Having done our grumbling, we did have some seasonal pictures made last week...we don't do spooky, just the fun cute things. We don't even get little trick or treaters at our den, so at least we won't worry about intruders and doorbell ringers.

Am I supposed to be looking serious, petcretary?

Or maybe I should think about this Halloween thing a bit more, BOL!

Yes! Its supposed to be fun!


I have a not so spooky grin!



She took that silly pumpkin wig off...


Now I am really feeling livelier, and I hope these furneds of mine think so too, do you?

Pipo nestled in the pumkkin basket


My collar makes a sort of good pillow...

And I am comfy here and even in a sun puddle!

But I detect an intruder kitty...

Where did he come from?

Sheesh!

And now I have nose ticklers...

Thanks for getting those out of there before I sneezed all over the place, MOL!

Oh no they are back. and *what* is that on my head?

I do believe that petcretary has gone cuckoo...

Sigh...oh well, maybe if I take a nap it will fall off.
Petcretary was quick on the hunt this week, too...and therefore she won the Tuesday Teaser that Teddy challenges us with each week. Our Auntie who passed away back in Dec of 2017, had often gone to New Mexico, so petcretary took advantage of that...as she often talked about all the lovely scenery there. Nothing at all like Michigan, MOL/BOL! Even though she for sure was not early in her arrival there, no one else had come up with the right guess, so hooray for her,  she got this great badge:
Thanks for this fun badge, Teddy!
We made a few cards, too:
Allie

Amber
 Together Amber and Pandora shared a birthday post, though they had birthdays in different months, due to circumstances in their furmily they decided to have a joint pawrty! The more the merrier, right??!
Pandora




We may not be here next week, Sunday; petcretary is going to visit our auntie, (her sister) and several of her cousins, they have decided to keep this annual gathering in November in honor of their late Auntie Arendina...so...we may not be here at all, or we may post a guest selfie in our stead, it depends on how much time petcretary can scramble together...

We are hopping along in the spooky or not so spooky Sunday Selfies, Hosted by The Kitties Blue.

Tocktober Sort Of Selfies

What a strange week, at least as far as the weather and its elements go. We had sunshine, thick clouds, nice balmy days, and then a heavy frost of 25F; thunderstorms, high winds, and sleet, and even hail. The hail happened during the MSU/UofM Football game, so here, being Wolverine fans, we said oh look hail! 'Hail to the victors!'...but the game had to be halted for way over an hour, due to the bad lightening. (And our team did win...Go Blue!)
So our patio planters and anything in the garden is now a frozen mushy mess. All the leaves from the black walnut tree fell off all at once onto the lawn, it looked like a green and brown blanket...and the catalpa tree in the back did the same. The Catalpa leaves looked like greenish leaf pancakes! Today there were lots of branches down, too from the high winds. Before the frost petcretary had to fix a planter that the wind had grabbed and knocked down. And petcretary was amazed because that has never happened before. Pawppy had to help to get it upright, its that heavy. So we can only barely imagine the wind's destructive forces from that nasty and awful Hurricane Micheal. Our thoughts and pawyers are with those affected.
Petcretary wanted to clean  up the yard and patio garden today, but the weather did not allow it...so well, that job will wait as it will not run away, MOL!
So instead of cleaning up the yard and garden, petcretary went to the pet store to buy some Dalton noms...and he went along! And well, there was another adoption event going on there. Dalton whined and pulled to see the furry wee ones...there were three puppies, and more than a few kitties, including a meezer mix. Petcretary chatted with the peeps for a bit, then pulled away to resist the strong urge to call pawppy to see if we could have another furry rescued one...but for us, this is not a good time for all kinds of reasons. So we will just stay with wee Dalton and good old Pipo:)
Later, both unfurbros came to watch the football game and enjoy a good meal afterwards. Petcretary fixed salmon, with roasted veggies, a salad and some homemade salsa. That salsa woke up the taste buds, MOL/BOL! She used tomatoes and peppers that she had harvested from the garden just before the frost, phew! Then they had berries with a Greek yogurt sauce for afterwards...since we don't eat heavy or traditional desserts like pie or cake anymore...Yummy! Dalton and Pipo both came to check out what those yummy aromas were...
So now we had to dig in the files, and we found some tocks to show you:
Sideways Tocks

*The* Tocks

Hey, I feel someone is watching my Tocks...

Who said you could peek at my Tocks?

Well, since I have the attention span of a flea, I will just forget about peeps looking at my tocks, because digging is way more fun!

Sideways Tocks, again...

That's all you're going to see of *my* Tocks!!
My Tocks are sort of in hiding...

But now they can better be noted...

Half of my Tocks, MOL!

A better view of the half Tocks...

OOOOOH! Tocks!

I feel too many eyes upon my Tocks!
So I will just swagger off...and therefore these Tocks are blurry, MOL!


 We made a card for Einstein and Timmy.

And Dakota had a Gotcha Day, too! And Caren, his Mom, had her own special day. Click on this caption to visit/send your greetings there:)
