Just like the good old days, I’m hustling. San Geraldo’s sister Linda and her husband, Tom, arrive for a visit in a few hours. Isabel just cleaned on Thursday but, as you can see from the top photo, I need to do some dusting. Windows open to the sea, salt, and sand ensure nothing stays shiny for long. So, here are just some shots of Dudo and Moose — mostly Dudo — to keep you interested.
I’ve slipped in a couple of shots of desserts enjoyed at Mesón Salvador Saturday afternoon when we met friends Jean and Ray for coffee. They only had coffee. San Geraldo went to select a dessert (one, I thought) for the two of us.
Oh, I forgot to tell you: The first desert rose is in bloom again even as it drops its leaves in the “winter chill.”
Como en los viejos tiempos, estoy apurado. Linda, la hermana de San Geraldo, y su esposo, Tom, llegan de visita en unas horas. Isabel acaba de limpiar el jueves pero como puedes, ver en la foto superior, necesito quitar el polvo. Las ventanas abiertas al mar, la sal y la arena garantizan que nada permanezca brillante por mucho tiempo. Entonces, aquí hay solo algunas fotos de Dudo y Moose, principalmente Dudo, para mantener su interés.
He incluido un par de fotos de postres que disfrutamos en Mesón Salvador el sábado por la tarde cuando nos reunimos con los amigos Jean y Ray para tomar un café. Solamente tienen café. San Geraldo fue a seleccionar un postre (uno, pensé) para nosotros dos.
Oh, me olvidé de decirte: la primera rosa del desierto vuelve a florecer incluso cuando deja caer sus hojas en el “frío invernal”.
• Dudo hizo un nido con papel de seda antes de sentarse.
• “Sabemos que es hora de darse aperetivos en algún lugar del mundo”.
• Anoche en la oficina de San Geraldo. Me encanta la expresión del rostro de Dudo.
• Estas dos últimas fueron tomadas en el pasillo. Dudo me rogó que le permitiera salir y luego corrió como un lunático durante 15 minutos y regresaba a mí con regularidad para abrazarlo.

All delightful!
Judy C:
And it still is.
Relax and enjoy. They are not there to inspect, they are there to enjoy the company.
David:
I simply cleaned the glass on the dining table and the cocktail table. Oh, and I made the bed. And we’re enjoying each other’s company.
The boys are endlessly cute! Enjoy your guests!
Debra She Who Seeks:
The company is great and they had gifts for the boys.
Now that’s how I like starting Monday…picture of the kitties!!!!! The first picture got me!
Mistress Borghese:
They do make me happy.
Again with Dudo’s punim! I’d get nothing done.
Bob:
He just came in and gave me some punim. I’m off to love him.
Sweet!……on SO many levels!
Jim:
Yep, so sweet.
I don’t see any dust. Relax! Enjoy your guests. I love the sweet faces of kitties.
Love,
Janie
janiejunebug:
The dust looked worse in the sunlight. I cleaned the glass surface and left the rest of the house as is.
I’ve read your comments elsewhere and finally realized you, too, have a blog, doh! And bonus, Spanish, too. Also cats! Anyway hello and thank you.
I don’t know why I showed up as anonymous. It’s Liz, from field and fen.
Liz:
Lots of anonymousness around here. Don’t know why. But I do the same. I read blogs. I read comments. I know names. And I never get further than that. And I regret it. So, I promise to visit and start following you, too. I’m behind on blogging with company here. Thanks so much for visiting.
It’s so fun, learning a little about your life through your excellent photos. Your cat companions are very handsome and sleek beasts. Enjoy your company. Why do we ALL worry so much about dust? Good Lord.
Ms. Moon. I used to have a Word Press account but that was when dinosaurs still ruled the earth.
Ms. Moon:
I was on blogger when those dinosaurs were around. Dudo and Moose are the center of the Universe. Or at least that’s what they tell me.
Dudo at least sneaks a peek, while Moose appears to be a bit camera shy in that one picture.
Kirk:
Moose was asleep. Dudo looked at me as if to say, ”Do you believe this jerk? I need my space!”
I got to see three of my grandkitties over the Thanksgiving holiday, but came home with a stomach bug…. so I’m sticking with Moose and Dudo photos today and scrolling past the food. Your boys are so sweet.
Kelly:
I hope the stomach bug is gone by now!
Pudding and plants that look like penises
finlaygray:
Amazingly, I didn’t notice the penises until you mentioned them.
I like that second-to-last photo of Dudo. It’s kind of dreamy with that reflection (I guess?) over his legs.
Steve:
Isn’t that wonderful? I shot the photo because I liked the light and shadows. The reflection was a surprise.
Don’t make me choose between food porn and pretty kitties. I won’t do it, I tell you. I want ‘em both, all the time. I ain’t Sophie and I ain’t making no choice!
Sassybear:
You never have to choose. On my blog, you can always have it all.
Cleaning, so you do do it!
Ron:
Some days I just can’t help myself.
