On the Road with Waffles & Katie: The Long Ride Home

WAFFLES:  But Glogirly, I don't want to go home. Can't we just stay on vacation forever???



KATIE:  Waffles, that's the smartest thing you've said since we got here. It's going to be really hard to say goodbye to this place. 

WAFFLES:  Should we give it a going away present?

KATIE:  I think the all that kitty litter on the dark blue carpeting is probably present enough. 



KATIE:  Waffles, now be sure to pack all your toys. Put them in your Sleepypod. You don't want to leave your catnip drumstick behind for the next guests. They could be dogs, you know.



WAFFLES:  DOGS???




*60 seconds after we left*
WAFFLES:  LA-LA-LAAA!  LA-LA-LAAAAAAA!!! ♫♩



 KATIE:  This is going to be one LONG ride home.




Today's Recap

It was SO hard to say goodbye to our vacation villa on the big lake that we called the office and asked for a late checkout. So after breakfast we ALL took one last vacation nap. It's quite possible that Glogirly and Gloman are turning into CATS.

Sadly, it came time to pack up the car and head home. What could've, should've, would've been a peaceful ride back to the city turned into the most annoying and LOUD trip any of us have ever experienced. Not even five minutes down the road, Waffles decided he did NOT want to go quietly. It was so bad in fact, we had to pull over at a rest stop and let him out of his carrier so he could explore the car and make sure everything was a-ok and road ready.

We're home safe and sound now and settling back into life at the Townhouse.  I'm sure going to miss those massive sun puddles, the group naps and bossing Waffles around. Oh wait... I am still and will always be... the Boss.

~Katie



WAFFLES:  Uh, excuse me. I can't reach the pedals and the steering wheel at the same time.

    I bet Waffles was almost as loud as me on my Las Vegas trip last October!

    Maybe I shouldn't be so proud of that.

    Home sweet Home! Safe and sound. I'm so happy!! Poor Waffles, you really didn't want to leave. After awhile you will see that there is no place like home. And I'm sure you will be able to persuade Glogirly and Gloman to go back to the Villa by the Lake. I'm sure Katie the Boss and always,The Boss, will have a say about that too. Welcome back my friends! Xo

    Waffles, all of the drivers on the road are thankful you can't reach the pedals and steering wheel at the same time. The road isn't ready for you, even if you're ready for the road!

    Waffles, I went back to the vet on Monday and I didn't sing my warrior songs. It is the first time ever, and mum had to check I was still there.

    Poor Waffles it must be a boy Tabby thing about singing in the car. Mom's old cat Danny only sang when she turned the radio OFF, guess he liked the music. Love Dolly

    So happy you had a wonderful vacation and trip home. Waffles, they do make controls for the pedals that go on the steering wheel. Gloman will have to get paw controls on the car!

    Poor Waff. I’m glad his CATawauling didn’t upset you, Katie. Maybe some orange cat forgot to take his calming collar/melts.

    Mom is wondering if Glogirly has ever tried covering Waffles Sleepypod with a towel. Mom says she'd have to get earplugs if she had to listen to that much signing. It is bad enough having to listen to Mauricio's jabbering all day long. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

      That's a great idea! ...and we sure thought it would work, but when we gave it a shot, Waffles sang even LOUDER. It wasn't until we pulled over and let him out so he could explore that he finally settled down. : )
