Today is Saturday.
Three weeks from today, I will be waking to a day of people
streaming down the driveway
loading up their purchases of the pots that I fill with
little green babies
today.
Today I will work,
work,
work:
from the moment I leave this desk
to the stars blink their watching eyes at me.
I will work with only 5 interruptions from the kids every 10 minutes
because their father is home
so I will send them away to him for the reinstitution of the necessary
snacks to keep them alive.
But I am not alone in my endeavors.
There is always somebody around to make sure I keep moving...
His eyes are not always open,
because he had a long night and dawning day of rat-catching,
squirrel beheading,
mole massacres,
bird bounty hunting,
frog fishing,
and generally terrorizing the local small life
"You have a rough life, Moon,
don't you?
don't you?
Okay,
yes,
I am glad I am not smaller than you.
But really, Moon, I do wish you wouldn't mess with the frogs.
You could spare them for Levi's sake.
It was just a suggestion, Kitty.
Yes, I do have work to do.
Thanks for the reminder."
Happy Day,
to you and all of yours.

ReplyDeleteJust found your blog and am now following you on Pinterest as well. Love the pics of your cat! I also have a tuxedo I adopted 2 yrs ago. He looks so much like your Moon - except the white on his face =)
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I wish ours would leave the poor frogs alone! He is such a beautiful cat though.
