I am a lucky cat. I’ve had two mothers in my life. I know my birth mother loved me, and did the best she could to give me a start in life. My Mom adopted me, and has shown me love and care for the past 10 years. What more could a boy ask? One of her human son’s sent a card, but I can’t … Continue reading Part 78 – Mother’s Day

I want to start this post by stating loud and clear that I have never seen a zebra. I’m not sure I would ever even want to see a zebra. A zebra running free is just plain scary to me. Mom told me that a group of 4 zebras escaped from a trailer in Washington state. Three of them were quickly captured and returned to … Continue reading Post 77 – Zebra

I didn’t post yesterday. This time, it wasn’t because Mom forgot what day it was. This time, it was because she was waiting for a special announcement. She spent a lot of time since Sunday morning working on the finishing touches to her latest cozy mystery. Tuesday and Wednesday, she and her publisher exchanged dozens of emails about the final assembly of the parts. This … Continue reading Part 76 – Waiting

Like the silly dog, Missy, I don’t really like to hear those loud cracks of thunder when it is quickly followed by the flash of lightning. A long time ago, Mom explained that the noise followed quickly by the flash means that the storm is very close. When that happens, she often shuts down her computer. Our electricity doesn’t go off for very long, but … Continue reading Part 75 – Thunder & Lightning

I think my mom swears. I’m not really sure what that means, but the words she was uttering this morning seemed to match the ones I’ve heard from some of the people in the movies that Dad watches. Mom did the same thing last week. Both times she had been outside cutting grass. She came rushing in and pulled off her shoes and socks while … Continue reading Part 74 – Fire Ants

Yesterday was my normal posting day. Mom and Dad left early to buy groceries as is normal. When they returned, Mom put Sophia and me out on our leads. We enjoy that unless the neighbor’s dogs are barking at us. They did bark yesterday. Sophia and I had lots of time to sniff the grass and the flowers (yellow things that Mom calls dandelions.) The … Continue reading Part 73 – Just Another Sunday

Yesterday was my normal posting day. Mom kept telling me that we would do it later. She repeated that a number of times. She said she was busy finalizing the blurb and the acknowledgements for her new book. I didn’t care. I kept trying to remind her of how important my blog is to all of my followers. They count on me. So I sat … Continue reading Part 72 – Mom Yelled at Me

We are very fortunate to live in the part of Texas that gets enough (although sometimes too much) rain. That rain helps to make for green grass and for lots of trees. I like to munch on the grass when Mom lets Sophia and I out on our leads in our play area. Of course, she yells a lot when I throw up that green … Continue reading Post 71 – Trees
