Chani in a Kimono part 2

Greeting friends, Mom dressed me up in my second kimono. I was quite sad. But I did make it out of the bedroom and lay on the cool tile to console myself.

Then my dear brother, 9, decided to try and fight me. I think he got jealous because Mom was taking so many photos of me. Do you think I stood for that? No, I held my ground!

He eventually lost interest...

And I was left to sit pretty on the tile.

And to contemplate the unfairness of it all...

Note from Marlene: When Chani sits in her kimono with her paws in front of her, I keep thinking that she looks like one of those proper, noble Japanese ladies kneeling in their kimonos. She's so pretty! Also, since Chani's gained a bit of girth after losing her tapeworm, the kimono no longer closes like it used to hehehe... So, it's good that I take photos of her lying down. Teehee... Also, I think this kimono's colors look better on her. She really does do well with the Autumn color palette.

Oh dear friends, woe is me. WOE is ME!!!

Since Mom can't find my Halloween dress, she bought me two new kimonos. Waaaah. She didn't get a good picture of me today. She was too busy playing with her new phone's camera that she didn't bother to get the big camera. BUT, this means, I'll have to wear the kimono again. Whimper whimper.

And she bought TWO because she couldn't decide which I'd look better in.

Since my brother is of no use, won't someone save me? Please!

Today was the Crafty Foxes Boutique. It's a Japanese-American craft festival where you can buy all sorts of goodies. One item was a kimono for the American Girls doll series. Of course, I thought of Chani instantly.

Chani: Bit freaked out here wearing this thing... every little noise causes me to jump and run away!

Chani: I'm a little calmer here. Not happy wearing bean clothing, but I'm impressing Mom with how well I can run in it.
Chani: and I'm not like 9. I don't try to bite it off to get rid of it.

Chani: Mom, if you are quite done with the flashy box thing, could you please take this off of me and give me treats!

My beloved Mac is somewhat resurrected in the form of an external hard drive plugged into my laptop. Apparently, there's an issue with the power supply. This particular model had recalls on it back in the day, but I missed it. AND the best part is that the power supply is no longer available from Apple. If Apple tries to order it, it may take up to 3 weeks and cost about $500...

My monitor is fixed, thank goodness, so I can hook up my laptop to my monitor and the mouse and keyboard and work off of the external hard drive. Depending on how it all pans out, I'll make my decision on fixing the tower and ordering that power supply...
