The arrival of Tuesday marks the arrival of my mom. Her plane is due to land in the early afternoon. She'll be here for a full 2 weeks. We all look forward to her visit.
I did clue the pets in today that there AZ grammie was coming for a visit. Cody ran through the house looking for her then sat down to serenade me with his typical "anticipation whine". He has this weird whine he does when he is anxious or anticipating something good. Simon looked at me with his bright eyes while tilting his head from side to side as I spoke to him. Piper walked around me as I talked but she doesn't understand. My mom will be receiving a brief course in kitty 101, as there are certain things to do and not to do when around Piper for the first few times. Piper is a bit shy. That's something I've already clued my mom into. Piper will likely not even remember my mom, it will be similar to her meeting her grammie for the first time. My mom has about as much "cat experience" as I did before my little Pipey came along.
I'm sure it will be a fun visit, somewhat low-key, go to movies, go to shopping, do girly things, and maybe a couple little ventures here and there too. We'll celebrate her birthday with her on Wednesday. I will spend a portion of the evening tomorrow night baking the cheesecake my mom has requested. This will be only my second cheesecake centered around a candy bar. Most of my cheesecakes are fruit based. Brad will be at tennis so my mom might have to busy herself with her "grandkids" while I work on the cheesecake. She won't mind!
As always I will end by saying to my mom....Welcome to Big D! The fave city of the 5 of us!
