Pretty Me!
Oh, my divine tail!
It is perfect in
every way.
It smells just great.
It has all of
prettiest colors.
It is so soft and silky.
It is long and lean.
It is mine all mine!
Then there’s my feet.
Can you see my gorgeous feet?
My toenails are so sharp.
My pads are clean and shiny.
There are colors to
tantalize your eyes.
I can use them to stalk around
the house like a panther.
Each toe is elegant.
I can even hold my pinky toe out
as if I were having tea.
I am so pretty!
Morale of the Story: Self esteem? She’s got it!
Now I Know
I learned some things on Sunday evening, January 13, 2013.
It was dark and cold. I was tired, and light wasn’t on my agenda, so I had taken the garbage through the house without turning on any additional lights. However, I did require the garage light, so that I would not miss throwing the trash into the trash bin. (I was not bending over to pick up anything that didn’t make it in.)
At the same moment that I opened the door between the house and the garage, I turned on the light. There, on the edge of the garbage bin was a mouse. I learned a few things.
- Have you ever dreamt that you were in a dangerous situation and needed to scream, but you could not make a sound? No one could hear you? No one could come to your aid? Well, I learned that when frightened, I scream like a howling banshee.
- I learned that a mouse can jump at least three feet through the air, run over the top of a car, and fling its self into the unknown void in the back of the garage in under 8 seconds flat.
- I learned that my mom can’t hear me scream like this with the television on in another room.
- I learned that my cats will come running no matter where they are in the house.
- I learned that I must now teach my cats how to use the phone to dial 911.
