Betty's Found!!!
Jan. 14th, 2003 04:50 pmNapping right on top of the sweater I wore yesterday in the middle drawer of the dresser. She seemed a bit annoyed that we interupted her nap!
I got home from work and called around again. And then I called Lee who came right up from downstairs (turns out she was getting ready to clean toilets and even gave that up to come help - I did wonder why she was so fast with the 'be right up!'). She and I, armed with flashlights looked everywhere and called out.
Then we said we go from one end of the house to the other and open up every single door and drawer and we'd both look in each. We did the living room. We did the kitchen. We did the bedroom. We got to the hallway and I there she was. Lee and I were both in tears. Actually so was Jake. His hopes for being the only cat were dashed again.
Whew! From now on I will
1. Not put my clothes away again ever. (And I think I'll blame my Mom for teaching me this stupid habit in the first place.)
2. We shall have a 'goodnight JohnBoy' rollcall every night.
3. We shall take attendance every morning.
4. There will be no roaming the halls without a pass.
5. There will be more rules after I have a drink.

Ha!

WOOT!

So happy that the baggage has at last turned up :)
I reckon it was a ploy to make you and Jake appreciate he ...typical cat behaviour if you ask me :)
