Karlito’s Morning

Seven days after Easter: Kaptain Karl watches birds in the dogwood tree at sunrise.

This is Sunday’s picture of the dogwood we’ve been watching. We’re counting the number of days after Easter she blossoms. Still only one guess — mine. I said 21 days. This is not much of a guessing pool. Hey wait. I’m a [...]

For My Birthday, a Photo Caption Contest!

Today’s my birthday! Ahem. Those candles in the cute little cake Mike made for me (isn’t he SO sweet?) do not represent my age in actual numbers nor in decades. Still, as Gregory put it this morning, “Mom, you’re old.” Help! I need to laugh today. So, since it makes me feel WONDERFUL to give [...]

Oh Majestic One

What Cats Want

Bradley’s monologue:“You get to run everywhere and squeeze in tight places, roll around the floor next to the furnace, sleep in that kitty tower when everyone’s doing their own thing, play with mice when no one’s looking, stare out the window at the family of blue jays in the dogwood, or the turkey hawks in [...]


When You Get ‘The Look,’ RUN!

Quote of the day: Bradley was having a staring contest with Kaptain Karl: laying stomach-down on the floor staring eye-to-eye, noses so close there was twitching. Suddenly, Karl’s eyes grew thinner, all purring ceased. “Oh man, I better leave snookums alone,” Bradley said. “He’s giving me that Darth Sidious look.”
