More Dolly and Kimme


The weather the last two days has been nasty. We have had the remains of tropical storm Hermine. It started raining yesterday evening, and continued all day today. There was a lot of flooding and water rescues. There were also a few tornadoes that touched down in Dallas county.
While I am typing this the fur babies are lifting up the throw rug and looking under it, and now laying on it. The picture below is what it is usually like when I am trying to work on my computer. Or else one is in my lap and the other on the desk.
Too cute!!

Dolly and Kimme


Well it is Labor Day afternoon, and thought I would post a little. Has been a great weekend weather wise. Although it is getting a little cloudy out there now, they are forecasting rain for Tuesday and Wednesday in North Texas. We sure could use it.
Thought since this blog is named for my cats, I would post a few pictures of the little fur babies. They just crack me up, they are so funny to watch.
