WAFFLES: Wow Boss, I'm really going to miss this channel.
KATIE: We're only going to be gone for a week, Waffles.
WAFFLES: So Bird TV will be here when we get back?
KATIE: Well the view will be here, but this primo window seat will be gone.
WAFFLES: Whaddya mean, Boss?
KATIE: Well we're sitting on top of a giant stack of hardwood planks for the new wood floor that's going down. It's like having our own luxury sun deck. Except without cocktail service and cabana boys.
WAFFLES: Glogirly, I think we should just leave the sun deck here, ok?
KATIE: Yeah, I didn't think that idea was going to fly.
WAFFLES: Fly??? Did you see a fly?
About Today's Photos
Part of our reconstruction at the townhouse is a new wood floor. Apparently dishwasher floods and hardwoods don't play nice together. Despite all the upheaval, Glogirly's pretty excited to have a brand new floor.
Just yesterday the floor man delivered all of the wood so it can 'acclimate.' After he carried 38 bundles (8 feet long and 80 pounds each) up a flight of stairs, with a landing and a 90 degree turn...
he stacked it all up by our big windows so that Katie and Waffles could enjoy an enhanced Bird TV viewing experience. Truth be told, it was the only place all the wood would fit.
But he was a cat man! He arrived at breakfast time when both Katie and Waffles were circling the kitchen so he had a chance to meet them. His first concern was carrying 38 eighty pound loads up a flight of steps by himself. Ok, we'll give him that. But his second concern was making sure Katie & Waffles were safe and wouldn't be able to get out the front door.
Gotta love a floor man who loves cats.
Just a couple of days until we move into our home-away-from-home hotel. Adventure awaits!
Glad y'all got to enjoy some Burd TV today.
ReplyDeleteI think he should build them a special shelf
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could talk the humans into a window seat....
ReplyDeleteWe think Glogirly and Gloman could work something out with that wood to make you a sun deck.
ReplyDeleteOh my... that's a ton of weight to carry up the stairs!
ReplyDeleteWe like Sweet Purrfection's idea .... Katie & Waffles look like they are friends!
ReplyDeleteYour floor human sounds awesome! I can't wait for your adventure!

ReplyDeleteThese are simply lovely pictures. Would a window seat be a possibility? They look so interested!
ReplyDeleteHow nice the the floor purrson was concerned about Waffles and Katie. We're looking forward to your
ReplyDeleteadventure!

That's quite the purrfect viewing spot. With all the redesigning going on, maybe they should build something permanent for you there. ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat viewing spot! And just you wait until you try and run on that wood floor. Poor Ichiro always has his feet slip out from under him when someone rings the bell...
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place to hang out. How cool that the floor guy cares about kitties! :)
ReplyDeleteMom wants to see the floor guy. Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteWe're with Katie.... cabana boys would make it purrfect. Good luck at the hotel.

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice floor man!
ReplyDeleteNow, we think you need to put in a window seat for Waffles and Katie after the floor is finished.
I think you need a nice window seat there when all is said and done.
ReplyDeleteapparently we aren't the only one ;)
ReplyDeleteWow that is a great view Katie and Waffles!
ReplyDeleteHow about talking the peeps into building you a little something something right there so you can maintain your view???
Wow! Katie and Waffles seem pretty cozy together on their temporary sun deck. Maybe if they had a permanent one, they'd become best buddies... or maybe not.
ReplyDeleteWe think a window seat would be lovely there. Gotta love those courteous cat guys
ReplyDeleteGreat viewing spot ! When the floor will be replaced, you could ask for a window seat. Purrs
ReplyDeleteA nice new window seat would be nice to go with the new floor.
ReplyDeleteI hope your new flooring is absolutely purrrfect! It is really nice to have updates done. I'm sure that Katie and Waffles will find other ways to watch Bird TV. :)

What a view...and what a man!!!
ReplyDeletenow that IS a thoughtful floorman!!! We have Pergo which holds up great with normal spills...I'm doubting with a flood the size of yours that they would though! lol
ReplyDeleteGood Luck kids...I'm sure you will find lots of ways to have fun at the hotel..
ReplyDeleteThink you need explain to Glogirly what a sun deck really for!
ReplyDeleteThat is really great temporary Bird TV for sure! Happy 4th of July to you all and purrs for your move and the rest of your renos!
