The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-Two is a Marvelous Age, Friday 3, 2023

If I were a human

I would be 24 years of age

I would dress the part (which I do)

I would have a fast car (I have fast paws)

And I be out of college (or on to grad school)

I would have the world by the tail.

Well, I am a cat

I dress the part of a very handsome fellow each and every day of my kitty life

I have fast paws—VERY FAST

I can climb any tree and walk any fence—I am a cool cat

I even trip up Boo Berry as she walks by and

tumble her like a leaf.

She jumps up and gives me a hurt look, but I laugh and run off

I am TLC Cai-Cai—the Kitty of the FARM!!

WE DID IT!!!!—-Thursday, February 2, 2023

 

On October 2, 2022, Jason brought in a semi-load of firewood.

Enough firewood for Shannon, Terry, and I, and Cliff and Kimberly.

We kept working on it for four months.

Two to three pickup loads a day

It was a long, gradual process

Bruce came out and helped one full day—sure was a lovely gift.

 

Terry cut. I loaded. Then we unloaded.  Some with us, some with Shannon.

With Cliff and Kimberly, we hauled their amount to their house—which helped shrink the pile

We MADE! IT!  DONE!!!

Last load to the house!

YAY!

Now the only thing left is the splitting of the wood.

To My Sister By Choice — Happy Day of Earthly Birthday, Wednesday, February 1, 2023

I miss you, My Dixie, my sister of choice.   We have been together since the day we were born.

I first, then in two weeks your birth

A part of me is there with you, wherever you are now.  Just like we were in our earthly life.

But—- sometimes—sometimes I feel you with me.

There in the rush of the wind through the leaves

A faint smell of Iris in the air

Sometimes I hear you laugh, giggle, sounds of joy so pure and delighted I want to reach out and take your hand—once more.

 

You were Springtime and Autumn–rolled all into one— all the best of feelings

All dolled up into a cute package of laughter and determination.

You are a precious soul!

Love you, Dixie, always,

From my heart to your world

Linda

 

My Wants are Very Simple —- Tuesday, January 31, 2023

Standing outside watching the Canada Geese flying and calling over-head

Adds radiance to my day.

A forever Thank you in my heart!

The Lovely Day Ebbed Softly into the Night, Monday January 30, 2023

Softly, silently,

Compressing the day into a magical

evening of tranquility

From my heart to your world.

Linda

The Moon, a Planet, and the Houses Across the Way, Sunday, January 29, 2023

So far, so distant so perfectly a part of our lives.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-I Can Run, Friday, January 27, 2023

Oh

I

Can!

Sometimes RUN FAST!  EVER SO FAST!

You have to be

FAST


Because we have

A HAWK

That lives around here.

A Little Bit of Winter— Wednesday, January 25, 2023

Winter all around us

Still—the sky drooping deep into the mountains

It looks like a good water year—so far.  (Holding breath)

A Week Ago Last Tuesday —Tuesday, January, 24, 2023

The rains started…then the air became very cold and full of malice, after which

Gradually the snow drifted languidly down, leaving clean white everything.

Until the firebox needed me.

Then there were tracks of fur kids and myself in the snow.

Your friend still caught in the shrewd grip of January.
