Look Who's Home For Thanksgiving!

With the return of The Maven for Thanksgiving week comes her trusty sidekick, my uber-cute grandkitty, Darcy.

I have arrived and there's new stuff to sit under and jump out from.  It's gonna be a GREAT week!

Look how big she has grown.  Now a little over the one year old mark and she is almost 11 pounds - she outweighs her Aunt Bumby now.  

But that doesn't mean Bumby doesn't get the respect - oh yes she does!

Others in the house have different, or should I say indifferent reactions.  Panda's life is unaffected, thus she doesn't care.

Just throw this ripped up smelly toy 1,000 times 

and I don't care if that fluffy upstart stays forever~

Sadie is confused by the furry body that hurtles about the house and retreats to her bed for more down time.

I don't really MIND her, she's just so energetic and well,

cat-like...

Bumby has taken to lecturing the youngster...

Looks like Darcy is unimpressed with all of Bumby's "wisdom".

...and then dozing off, hoping to awaken to a world without Darcy.

I'll just close my eyes and when I open them, SHE will be gone!

Shnope!

Darcy just does as she pleases.  

Sleeps in her new favorite spot and enjoys all the extra attention.

I have this house SO figured out.

Darcy out!

Thanks to all my wonderful bloggy friends who left words of encouragement to me and The Maven on my previous post.  We have straightened our shoulders, taken a deep breath and are ready to take on the next few weeks with a  positive attitude and eventual success!
