We were given this award by Pikku Punapippuri! Thanks so much, friends! They live in Finland and just took in 3 kitties who were left homeless when their owner died. They are great and Maggie May has a special place in her heart for Punapippuri.The rules of this award are simple. I have to tell 7 things about myself. Here goes:
1. I grew up in the MTV generation, but that TV channel was completely off limits to me. I was only allowed to listen to oldies or country music. No rock 'n roll!! Now, 80's rock is my favorite :)
2. I turn the big 3-0 in October and I'm not even freaking out about it.......yet.
3. Last week, my hubby and I became victims of credit card fraud. A lady (and I use that term loosely because ladies don't steal) that I've known since I was young, stole my husbands wallet off of his tool box at work. She was there getting her car worked on by another mechanic. Luckily, he noticed it was stolen before she did too much damage to our bank account. She was arrested Tuesday and the bank credited our account the charges she incurred on the card.
4. I'm a reality TV nut. My favorite shows are Top Chef, Deadliest Catch, Cake Boss, Holmes on Homes, Flipping Out and The Real Housewives (all of them).
5. We have no biological children. Just the four-legged, furry kind.
6. I love gangster movies, "Goodfellas" being my favorite.
7. Growing up, both of my parents worked on the water for a living...shrimping, clamming, crabbing... We didn't have a lot of money and we ate a lot of seafood.
We'd like to pass this award along to......The Kool~Kitty~Krew's Mom and Hannah and Lucy's Mom
Great news! Whiskers made it through his surgery just fine. Once he was fully over the anesthesia, we let him and Ramber (our FIV kitty) meet. They did a lot of talking back and forth and touched noses, but Rambler was hissing a bit, so the meeting only lasted about 10 minutes. We didn't want to stress either of them out.
Whiskers and Glinda will be leaving for transport this afternoon. Safe travels, cuties. We'll certainly miss you.
Happy Friday!

Well that was fun learning more about that lady servant in your house. Poor thing, she is just getting so old. I am old enough to be her grandmother so she is still a child.
Sure glad that Whiskers made it through his surgery in good shape. We are crossing our paws that he will find a wonderful home. Good luck Whiskers. We will be thinking about you.
Have a great week end.
Peess, glad you didn't get too much taken out of your credit card. That must have been really scary.
Concats on your award! Our mom likes 80's rock too. There is a station here that has a retro Saturday of only 80's music.
We missed yesterdays news about Whiskers and are glad the rescue is going to find him a home. Whew! and super good to hear his surgery went well. Have a great weekend all-
Fraidies Pip, Smidgen, MInnie
Thanks for giving this award to Mum - she is going to do the post about it tomorrow.
Our mum love the series of Deadliest Catch too - we don't think she would make a good shipmate though she likes her home comforts!!
Have a good weekend.
Congrats on the award, but oh my goodness, we're sorry to read about the theft and credit card fraud. We're glad she was caught and arrested and that you weren't liable for the charges she incurred.
GREAT news about Whiskers' surgery; yippee! Lots of continued purrs to him, that he finds a wonderful forever home.
Happy Friday!

Great news about Whiskers! I hope they have a good trip and find a home soon.

Hooray for Whiskers! And I am also glad to hear that the bad person who STOLED from you was caught.
My Mommeh loves reality TV shows, too. And we think furry kids are the best kind!
Congrats on your award mum!
Congratulations on the award! Those were great seven things, and you're so lucky that you figured out who took the wallet before too much damage was done!
Safe travels to Whiskers!

It was lovely to learn more about you :)
Well, these are verreh interesting things! Our Mommy is pushing 50 (hard!) so don't sweat 30. 30 is nuthin!
We love Top Chef. Daddy does his best cooking during Top Chef season...and we get tid-bits! nommy!
We are ready and willing to poop on that bad lady's pillow, just say when and where.
Bon Voyage to Whiskers and Glinda!
Concatulations on your award! It was a lot of fun learning more about you! We're glad the bad person who stole your credit card was caught. That's awful. Our mommy passed 30 a squillion years ago so you're still a kitten!

THose are interesting facts. thanks for sharing!
We are glad that Whiskers did well with the surgery!
And congrats on the award - it is so fun to learn about all the moms! I like 80's rock too, but of course that is the music she grew up with - and remembers when it ws first out. And that sucks that your friend took your credit cards - that happened to our mom once with a "friend" too. She was caught but they let her off (but did credit the card at least).
Congrats on your award! We enjoyed learning more about you! Mom says it's funny...for someone who only got to listen to country and oldies as a child to be an 80s rock fan now!!
We're sorry about your credit cards being stolen. How can humans be so mean???
And we are SO happy Whiskers made it through the surgery. Now let's hope the rescue can find the purrfect home for him!!
ConCats on your award and thank you so much fur thinking of us and passing it along. (we will post it Mon). LOVED learning about your mom and that ID theft is very scary. That woman is a plain ole scumbag (pardon the word, I call 'em as I see 'em) and YAY for Whiskers!!! Happy weekend special furriends!
Concats on your great award, and thanks for sharing about yourself! We are really happy to hear that Whiskers made it through his surgery with flying colors, and are purring and praying that he and Glinda find some perfect forever homes!
I like ur hooman friend. Hoomans are good to have. They can turn on the teevee and stuff. :)
Cool facts about you!
I think my favourite gangster movie has to be The Untouchables with Kevin Costner and Sean Connery :-)
Cool! Mom loves reality TV too. Glad Whiskers is doing well!
Concatulations on your wonderful award, you deserve it! And our Daddy had a credit card fraud incident recently too, someone just keyed in his numbers of all numbers in the world, sheesh ... it really sucked for him! Glad you nipped it in the bud before it got too bad :)
