Welcome to the burrow Mmeerkatlvur, its nice to have you here! There are alot of nice kats here, so feel free to post anywhere.

Cordee, thanks, I love you too! Reality bites and I have to try to laugh at it. Lol

Hildy, I did not mean that in a nasty way. All of my dogs are dog aggresive. Stormys the worst. This is their house and their yard, and they dont take kindly to strange dogs. Or any other animals. Just a fact. Dillenger still trys to play a bit, but he goes for the neck even playing.

Hi Kescha, just wanted to drop in and say hi. I saw a very good movie today, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" with Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. It was three hours long, but the time went by so swiftly. I cried at the end, but I won't give anything away.

Tonight, it's comfort food night, spaghetti and meatballs. Gotta run now and make those meatballs. Take care Kescha!

Hi Kescha. It's another sad night in the burrow. December has been so hard on our sisters. I will pray next year will bring better.

Josnaj, I've seen that movie advertised. It seems interesting, but I will wait for the video. I haven't been to a movie theater in 20 years. I'm not sure why, we just never go.

If I eat all that comfort food, I sure will have to diet come 2009. It sounds so good though.

2O YEARS!!!!! Then I'm kinda younger than you guys... well ALOT younger.... not even double-digits....

Hi mmeerkatlvr123. Welcome to the burrow. We are all different ages here. Mostly female. But everyone is welcome. We love our pups. There are some threads here that are visited mostly by younger people. Stop by anywhere and introduce yourself.

Mmeerkatlvr, it dose not matter what your age is, everyone is welcome here!

MMeerkatlvr, welcome & age never matters with alot of us who refuse to think about acting our ages. Without the pups, where is all the great new music going to come from? But I'm with you KOKL, it has been years since I've gone to a theater other than stage productions or concerts. Volume & price too high & people talking throughout the movie has spoiled it for me. Now if there were still drive-ins, I might think about it...

So Benjamin Button was good Josnaj? I'll have to do a library check out on that one. I'm way behind on movies...

Hi Kescha

Hey Josnaj, sorry, I didnt mean to ignore you earlier. I have a bad headache today and its just hanging on. I would love to see the movie "The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button". I will have to rent it and watch in myself. I dont think my DM will watch it, lol. I love meatballs! Yummo. Thanks for stoping by to say hi!

Meergato, Im with you on movie theaters. Its hard to enjoy a movie with alot of back ground noise. Now when I go to a concert I expect that. Lol. Sounds like your having a great time on vacation.

Paw waves everyone. Almost time for the dark, yeah. Lol, I sound like a vampire. Just wana rest my head.

Kescha, those headaches sound like a you-know-what. I hope you feel better soon.

I forgot to mention that we had an earthquake in our area several days ago, measuring 3.4 on the Richter scale. I heard a loud boom around midnight, and then the whole house shook. I watched the news the following day, and I guess they are not too uncommon in Southern PA, but mercifully we just get the small ones. It was felt as far south as Baltimore, I guess.

I saw an excellent movie today, "Slumdog Millionaire." It is set in India, where a young man plays the Indian version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" The movie travels through his life, showing how he is able to answer the questions even though he had very little education. The movie was engrossing, riveting and the best movie I have seen in a long time. It got the best reviews and ratings for a movie that I have seen in a long time, too.

Well, Kescha, get your rest and kick those headaches up and down the street! Hope to hear from you soon!

Hey Kesch,
Just sneakin' in your burrow to say a quick howdy to you and the regulars here. Hope all id well with you my friend. It is cold and windy here in Upstate, NY. I swear, I need a warmer environment. Stay warm everyone and God Bless.

Kescha and friends, I wanted to stop by and wish you all happiest of new years! Kesch, you mean the world to me and i love you! Hugs, all!

Hi Kescha, just wanted to wish you and your family a very Happy New Year. Have a safe and warm New Year's Eve!

Hi Josnaj, wow, I didnt know you guys had earth quakes there either. I have been in a few in C.A. I will take our tornados. That Slumdog Millionaire sounds like a good movie! Well I think the headches are getting better. Goofy weather here for sure. Happy New Year to you and yours lady!

Meerkatmike, thanks for stopping by!

Cordee, you mean as much to me as air sister! Happy New Year to you and yours! Love you too!

Susybear, thank you for stopping by! Happy New Year to you and your family too!

Happy New Year To All My Burrowmates!

Happy New Year Kescha and all who post here!!! I hope for everyone that it will be a grandslam of a New Year.

We are spending a quiet evening at home, and some friends are visiting us tomorrow. It is just too risky to go out with all those drunk drivers you know. With everything that is going on in the economy and world events, I just hope 2009 takes a turn for the better.

So I raise a toast to everyone for health, happiness and good fortune!!!

happy new year and lots of hugs and smoochies to you my dear meer sister.
me and pup are going to go see the boys play tonight. if i can stay awake!

love you dearly kescha

Hi everybody,
Have a great new years eve. Stay safe and warm. I hope everyone has a healthy and happy new year. I'll pop in again real soon. Off to dinner a little bit. God Bless.

Wow Josnaj, you're getting all my CA action. We're usually the ones having a whole lotta shakin' going on. Stay safe!

Happy New Year Kescha! You're not sneaking off with Korkie to see the band play?

Happy New Year to all in the burrow! Have a fun night!

Happy New Year Meerkatmike and friends. I hope the new year brings health and prosperity.

Snow and very cold here. I hate snowbrushes and boots. Yech. Its just DM, me and the cats tonight. Our partying days are long over. Tomorrow we will celebrate Christmas with the kids now that we are all well again. A nice way to start the year.

Blessings to all.

Oh dear me. Another senior moment. Kescha I meant to post the comment to meerkatmike, but again, oh dear.

Of course I wish you and your family a Happy New Year and may all your dreams come true this coming year. Love and lots of hugs. Your friendship has meant so much to me this past year.

I wish the best for all my meersisters and hope the new year brings you many blessings. You have given me so much strength and support this past year, I am so happy to have you all in my life.

Bless you.

Happy New Year Kescha!

Happy New Year Kescha, and everyone here. May it be one with happy news and good memories.

Thanks everyone for the new year wishes!

Meergato, I wish I was sneaking off to see the band play!

Korkie, I hope you got to see Kirk and Wingos teeth! Haha! All of their teeth! LOL Cant wait to hear all about it.

Krazolkatlady, your friendship has meant alot to me too, everyones friendship has made my life alot better.

Hugs to everyone, you too Meerkatmike!

Hey Kesch!

Kescha..they are eating my slippers off my feet, as I sit in the dining room..where they have been banished!

Happy New Year Sweetie!

Dave, hope you and Shirley have a good year too!!

Well Kescha, I saw another movie today, Marley and Me, and what a disappointment it was. It should have been called "Me," because the movie was mostly about the author, John Grogan. I would say 70% of the movie was about John and 30% was about Marley. As one critic put it, the focus of the film was really about "a man's trajectory through adulthood." I really looooved the book, but the movie captured only a few highlights where Marley was concerned. Grrrr. But I did tear up in the end. Also, it was directed poorly and was kinda dull. Grrrr.

Hope your New Year kicked off to a good start. See ya later.

Hey Hildy, better the slippers then your toes! lol!

Hi Josnaj, I read the book Marly and Me, the movie doesnt sound too good huh? Too bad they couldnt have made it more like the book. Thanks for the review! I finaly saw The Dark Knight, awesome movie! Its a long movie, but well worth watching. My new year started off pretty good with some suprise company. I will have to post on that later. Paw hugs!

Hey ya Dave! Nice seeing ya here!

Paw waves everyone!

Josanj, had to go take care of some business. My cousin Dianna and her Daughter Teresa stopped by yesterday, Teresa just had a baby girl about a month ago, she named her Dianna LeeAnn, after her momma and my sister that passed away. Shes a beauty too! Got the biggest brown eyes and a head full of dark hair! Thats so neat that Teresa named her after my sister, LeeAnn! LeeAnn used to babysit Teresa. I had sent Teresa some stuff, but this is the first time I got to see the baby! So that was realy nice! OH Terea is 22 and married. Dianna is two years older then me, one of my favoite cousins, they live in Mankato ks. So that was a great way to start the new year!

Hi, Kescha and friends! It's a rainy, yuky Monday here today. Hope your all's weather is better.

Kesch, sounds like you got a nice surprise! Bet the baby is a doll. Such a pretty name, too. Hope you and your dm are both feeling much better today. Paw waves and hugs, everybody!

Kescha, that was wonderful that Teresa named her baby after your sister, LeeAnn. She must have had fond memories of her. What a way to honor her memory. What can I say about babies? They turn me into a big gibbering pile of goo. Each one gives hope to this crazy world.

Eeek, we are supposed to get some wintery weather tomorrow, hope it is not too bad. Paw waves to all who drop in!

Hi Kescha, thought I'd pop into your burrow and say hello!

That was awesome kescha, getting to see the little baby. I'm like josnaj, they turn me into a pile of goo. Can't wait 'til I'm ready to have my own. And josnaj, thanks for the review of "Marley and Me." I guess now I know it's one I can skip.

Hi Kescha. I've missed everybody here but I have been working too hard again. At night I've been exhausted and decided just to hide in the hole and recoup.

Its been cold and icy here for days. I don't even want to go out to work, but we have these habits we've developed over the years, like eating and having a roof over our heads. So, I guess I'll just stay depressed until I see a robin.

Oh, babies. They are so cute, but they scare the bejeebers out of me. They are so small and delicate. I have no idea how I raised kids, especially with 3 lb twins. I must have been a different person way back then.

Slippery paw waves to you all.

Hey!

Kescha, where you be? I felt dismal last night, mostly because of all the weight I have gained over the holidays. A staggering five pounds. I think it all went to my "girls."(And I really don't need it there) I tallied the food that I ate: two pounds of fudge, a box of truffles, two bags of chocolate cherries, a box of mocha caramels, not to mention all the rich and hearty holiday meals. Oh woe is me!

KOKL, I hear you about the crappy weather. It is definitely getting to me, too. And we are suppose to get some snow tomorrow . But it is only a few months before we see your Robin.

I'm hefting stiff and chilly paw waves to everyone!

Hey ya Dave, Titus and Krazolkatlady! KOKL, babies are anything but delicate, but I here you, never cared for anyones till I had mine. Lol, I dont how you did it with twins. Kudos lady! Sorry to hear about your weather.

Josnaj, I had to have a sleep study done. If your not depressed when you go in, you sure are by the time you get out. They kept me for a night and all the next day too! Thats funny about your girls not needing the weight, I hear you sister! Keep your chin up, its a new year and theres plenty of time to get rid of it! I ate alot of choc too, its my weakness. I guess I have been feeling dismal too. Thats a good way to put it. I wont get any test results for two weeks. Isnt that crazy? Freaking drs take their time. Lol

Paw waves everyone!

Oh Krazolkatlady, missed you around here too. I dont blame you for wanting to hibernate at all. Lol, just drop us a line from time to time!

Kescha, a sleep study? I'm assuming that you underwent a study for those headaches(correct me if I'm wrong)? Well, I'll pray that those doctors don't find anything serious. You're a valued member of this forum, and to your friends, of course, and we want you to be in the best of health.

Hey Josanj, you asume correctly, and thanks! Paw hugs to you!

Hi Kescha. I bet you are glad the test is over. I hate tests and procedures. Everything moves so slow. But its all worth it if the doctors are able to help you feel better.

Another sad day, for the loss of sweet Tabitha. My condolences to her family.

Josnaj, thanks for the tuna recipes. As usual, you have outdone yourself. I hope your new year is off to a good start. Only 5lbs? If I had eaten all that really good stuff I would have gained 105. As it was I lost about 10lbs over the season, but I was too sick to eat much. Now if I could figure out how to do that when I am well, I could get rid of the other 100 lbs I need to lose.

Good wishes for one and all. Stay warm and safe. We are getting snowed in.

Hi Kescha, hope you're recovering from all the testing. I'm not much into the poking & prodding thing. Gotta do a treadmill test on Wed. They never get all those electrode patches off & always find a stray one later. The last test I had a very elderly man ask me to take his test too. Should see if I can play my Mindefect cd during the test....I've got the concert video playing right now (well, stop & play with the library burrow grand connections ).

KOKL, I hope the bad weather goes away soon. I think it's definitely time for spring & having a critters make an appearance.

Josnaj, hang in there. I always get the winter blues when I return from sunny CA. I am probably living in the worst place for me - I start dragging with every cloudy day & only have abundant energy when the sun shows up. Have always been like this. My brother got me going on drinking green tea with meals & it has seemed to help a bit with the weight. We shall see if this shows promise.

All paws waving at all!

Hi Meergato! I feel for you on that treadmill test. My mom had to do one of those. Your right about the stray patches, I found a couple stuck on me later, in the shower. LOL. I have been drinking green tea too. Guess we will both see.

Krazolkatlady, sorry to hear about the snow! We have been pretty nice here. Iam affraid our summers gonna really cook us good. Thinking of you lady.

Josnaj, I dont know about being a valued member of this forum, but I have made a alot of friends here, and I consider you one of them. You always reply and give your support.

Paw waves everyone!

Well Kescha, I am glad you consider me to be one of your friends. I now feel I am part of the "cool chicks" crowd. Now we can swap Hello Kitty trading cards! And I certainly do hope I offer my support as much as I can.

With all the negativity in this world, this forum is a wonderful place to come to. I've encountered quite a few interesting and fun people and have learned alot from our residential Meerkat scholars over at the Spoilers Burrow. Everyone has something to contribute, and all have a boundless love for Meerkats and animals in common. (Sigh) None of my other friends are interested in the meers. I tried to get my sister to watch the show, but she saw the one from Season 3 in which Kinkaju ate Mozart's pups and vowed never to watch the show again(she can't stand to see animals suffer). Anyways, I will be sad when this is all over, but I'm pretty sure there will be a Season 5.

So, batten down the hatches, ladies, this week is supposed to be a really cold one! Stay safe and try to stay warm.

Hey Josnaj, I love your sense of humor! Meerkat kitty trading cards! Now if someone made them, they would make some money! I dont know about the cool part, but its just a sister thing. Us ladies understand each other, if you know what I mean. I hear you on the negativity in the world. I try to stay positive, and your right, everyone does have something to contribute. I also understand you on no one understanding your love for meerkats. My hubby quit watching the show after Mozart did that, and my son was done after Flower died. I dont know anyone around here either that loves meerkats. Its nice to come here and talk to people who do. Iam keeping my paws crossed for a season five too! Your right, it is getting colder here too. We are in a high wind advisory, and Iam working on a doozy of a headache again. We might even get some snow on this round. Hugs to you lady, stay warm!

Paw waves everyone, and I hope everyone stays warm too, and has a good day!

Hey Kescha, Just wanted to let you know that we stayed really warm today. It was a high and a record, I believe, of 88 degrees.....ouch.....I have been in shorts and a sleeveless top today.....need to turn on the vans......geezzzzz

Hey Kescha...miss you..apparently we have missed each other!

Hey Kescha. I hope that headache goes away. It's got to be the goofy weather.

Josnaj, I hope you're doing well.

Meerkat trading cards is a great idea. Someone should look into merchandising those. I smell money.

Janelle, 88 is obscene. We are expecting 0 and below, not even talking wind chills. I'd be happy to send you some snow. If you send a truck, we will fill it up for you.

Meergato, I always seem to be getting an ekg, so I know all about those patches. Why do they always leave that residue? Like you need Googone to get it off.

Stay dry and warm if you can. It's going to be a challenge here.

christopher9691-Wow, 88! Too hot!!!

kescha-I hope the results of the sleep study provide some answers to your headaches. It sounds like they can use sleep studies to look at a lot of things.

krazolkatlady-Nice to see you again. I hope you don't get hit by the weather too badly.

Have a good week everyone!

RadioStar, its nice to see you! I hope things are going good for you. I hope the sleep study shows something. You know how drs are though, charge an arm and leg, and take their sweet time about it. Lol

Meergato, let us know how you do on your test. I hope your ok weather wise. It looks like alot of people are in the deep freeze, so stay safe and dry if you can.

Krazolkatlady, I know its going to be freezing where your at. Maybe we need Janelle to give us all a thaw out? This has been a roller coaster winter for weather. Stay warm and safe lady.

Janelle, shorts is a six letter word! Hahaha! I do wish you guys could get some rain though. I cant imagaine those temps!

Hildy, I had a busy day yesterday, the pup had a never ending hair cut and concert last night. I will give you a call today. Smoochies!

Paw waves everyone! Stay warm, or cool in Janelle and Hildys case!

I'll gladly take the 88 degree weather lol. Today is only going to be 14 at best and the high here for Friday is 6 I'm originally a California 'kat so I will never be used to this weather.

~MPW

Oh Marypatwhiskers, I feel for you! This is just bone chilling cold! You dont ever get used to it do you? Warm hugs!
