What a Magical Age...

I took this picture during the last rains while at lunch...

on my PHONE! (shakes head in wonderment)

For those of you who are too young to remember life before cell phones, I was amazed at the concept, and watched, delighted, as they got smaller and more intricate.

I think this is a pretty good picture for any medium.. then I realized that this phone has the same resolution as my first digital camera.

We live in a time of magic, and are sometimes so involved in the petty that we don't see the joy...

Ok..

the kitties are fine and I WILL post more..

I've had a bad case of the dontwannas...

Oh! I put my avocado in a salad... it wasn't perfect, but it was free and it was mine and I loved it!

The Yin and Yang of Kitties...

S'no Problem...

Not the best picture, but the mountains are far far away...

It's been cold here with occasional rain (hopefully more tomorrow!!) and more snow than usual. We're not Washington State with I-90 closed for 3 days and blasting again and again to set off any avalanches in the area, but we've had our fun... Or at least I have.

As many of you know, I love inclement weather of any kind (except maybe wind, because to a teacher, wind is the apocalypse. Small children blow in the classroom and rattle around like tiny leaves. If you shake them ever so slightly, you can hear their tiny dried brains rattle.) .. but I digress.

I love the rain.

No...

really...

I love the rain....

So this has been a good time for me.

So, enough about the weather...

Have I told you about Sweet Pea and the Squeak lately?

New names for now. Big Kitty is Sweet Pea (or Sweet ness, or Sweetums or whatever), and Baby Kitty is The Squeak (Squeakers, Squeakums, Squeaks.. etc.) because that's the only sound she makes. Teeny tiny little squeaks...

She is still in love with the idea of being one of the 'hidden kitties', and blending in...

or trying to...







They are both getting so big!
