~My HoneyGirl~

Isnt that just the cutest picture? That's my honeygirl, Kelli Beth, in her
Papa's shoes and my cat Skeeter. Kelli was 3.. She LOVED that cat,

and he loved her.. She could do anything to him and he just

stayed right with her.. He was a big black Burmese and a

really good kid.. He wasn't just indoors..He came and went as

he pleased..sometimes gone for a day or 2..He knew not to

be gone longer or he wouldn't get back in for another day..

He steady brought me peace offerings of birds or even a

squirrel.. The bluejays that nested in the big Oak tree in the back

of the house hated him and would dive bomb him every time he

went too close to that tree... Was funny to watch...But those

birds would attack anyone that came too close..When they had

babies up there we knew to stay away from that tree. They are

very aggressive birds..Poor Skeeter got clawed a couple times ..
When Kelli would get to the house in the morning first thing she

would do was look for Skeeter..Kelli had a little girls shopping

cart and she played with that all the time. When she would get

that cat and drag him toward that thing he knew what was

coming..She stuffed that cat, you can see how big he was, into

that cart thing and every time that cat would try to jump out, she

would smack him on top the head and tell him "NO YOU STAY!"

and continue to push him around.. He stayed in that cart.. She

had gone home one night and I got to calling Skeeter..He always

came when I called him.. I called and called him and that cat

was NO where to be found! I started to get worried.. I sat at

the kitchen table all worried and upset about him and all of

a sudden I hear this MEOOOOWWWWWW.. a most forlorn

whiney meow I ever heard.. I followed the sound..and guess

where that cat was? Yup..he was still in that grocery cart of

Kellis.. he wasn't taking any chances of her being around and

smacking him on top the head if he got out.. I picked him up

out of that thing and I could almost hear a sigh of relief from

Skeeter ..he jumped down and ran to the door to go outside..
The next time Kelli came he hid from her.. :-) but I didn't blame

him.. I would have run too crammed in that little cart thing..
My rabbit is back in fact there are 3 out there.. I saw them out

there early this morning about 6 am.. Those sunflower seeds

I put out there they are really enjoying them...
Now, Looky my roses over by the garage.. Penny came today and
took my camera out there and took some photos for me of them..
There are so many buds it is almost falling over..
Isnt that pretty? I love roses.. I am so grateful to have these wonderfully

beautiful things out in my yard to enjoy..Whomever that was that planted

all these I am sure glad they did.. I hope they know how much I am

enjoying all their work..

Penny came today and we are all clean and squeaky..She made

some spaghetti sauce for me and I plan to make some angel hair

pasta, which is my favorite.. I got up early today thanks to my boys.

I don't know why but when it hits about 5 they start to prowl and

do their best to try to wake me up..Dutch KNOWS how ..he comes

up and lays by my face and then proceeds to lick my face..if that

doesn't work, THEN he will start to lick my eye lids.. NOW,, there

aint NOTHING gonna make you open your eyes any faster than that.

Its like sand paper.. when I need a good facial I just call Dutch..hes

got the roughest tongue of any cat Ive had.. Well its spaghetti time

and I am hungry so Im off to food land.. first my GORGEOUS
WEEBLE "nitey nite" :-)

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and THANKS!! :-)

Always, Lois ****

God Bless you, is my prayer today,

I'm so honored to call you "friend";

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again.....
