Hi, Girls! It's me, Charlie-Boy! Mommy & Daddy are very busy. Suitcases are being packed. They think I don't know what that means, but I know that they are going away. Between naps I supervise the packing. Daddy's parents look after me, so I know I'll be fed, watered, and cuddled. But I will miss Mommy & Daddy while they're away...
The good thing is that I get to have the bed and furniture all to myself--meow! I'll be holding this space until Mommy can again...
LOVE & Purrs... Charlie-Boy =^o^=
P.S. Hi, everyone! Charlie's Mommy back here... We will be away for a couple of weeks in the USA. The days have been extra full lately, for a while now. I've been trying to keep up with everything & everyone. Very much we are looking forward to this trip and a break--some rest, some play, some family time. I hope while we're away to share a few photos. My online time will be very limited though, so I may not get to check/answer email, etc. as much as usual. My Etsy shop will be closed until we are back. I look forward to catching up with all of you again as soon as I can. See you the beginning of June! In the meantime, some Charlie-love for you...
With Love,
Dear Charlie-Boy....you must learn to share, for you Mommy's Mommy need's some time with your Mommy & Daddy. So stiff upper lip ol' boy. They will be traveling many, many miles to come see us. You can be sure though that they'll be missing you. Keep your Mommy's side of the bed warm for her, because she'll be very tired when she return's. Be a good boy while they're gone. Love, Grandma

Tracy, I hope that you and TJ have a wonderful time away and that you return to us safe and sound, and rested. Poor Charlie. How will he ever cope. Somehow I think he will be ok. I do love me some Charlie. These pictures are adorable. Hurry back to us, but do enjoy yourself whilst you are away! Love you loads and loads! I shall miss you tons and tons! xxoo

Tracy, Sorry for not having been able to come and comment as often as usual, as I am a bit busier with posting everyday. Have a safe trip and enjoy yourself on this side of the pond ;-)

Hi Dear Tracy!
How exciting!! You are going away to your family! I hope you have a fantastic time and lots and lots of fun. :)
I know you are closing your shop for the time being, but I would like to ask you if you could reserve me that pink mala you had in the shop? (if you haven't sold it yet). On my ways from coming back/going to picking up Joey at school, I have found the need to have something to hold in my hands (I think it is like something to keep transferring any panicky/anxiety energy away) and a mala would be absolutely perfect. I thought about you and how you make truly beautiful ones and thought of giving you a shout. Let me know if it is ok with you.
If I don't hear from you until you come back, have a fantastic trip!
Lots of love and hugs,
xx

Hi Charlie Boy, wish your parents a lovely trip and enjoy the bed to yourself whilst they are away :) Cuddles, Catherine x

It makes me so happy to know you are about to enjoy a visit west. It sounds as though your cat is philosophical and confident enough to manage while you're away, but of course he will miss you. O, Charlie, you do look so very comfortable! Safe travels, Tracy.

Enjoy your visit State-side, Tracy. Charlie will be holding down the fort, but I bet he'll miss your company.
