Is it July? I can't tell. It has pretty much looked the same since last September except that now high temperatures are 60º (July is usually 80s by now). And rain has not stopped.

Anyone born in the past 10 months doesn't know what sun is.

Send money. That would help.

L.J., how are you going to have a picnic,
With all that rain?

OH MY .... still raining. Isn’t that depressing?

It is 82 degrees at 10:30. It is too D... Hot.

We are going to the movies before swim lessons. It should be nice and cool .... when we come out the heat will probably kill me.

I was almost sick when we got home yesterday. Too many hours in that awful heat. Shade didn’t help much. We were at the pool for 2+ hours and then went to a park for a picnic. We were there for another hour and a half. Today we are going to Burger King after swimming. I’m looking for cool places to spend most of the day.

Hope you are having a Wonderful Wednesday.

Dexter Dance




Not every single week, but when we have the chance
My Pretty One and I play a game she calls 'The Dexter Dance'
A special occasion for those times when I've been very good
That in my opinion should happen more often than it could

If not for those times when she comes home with bags dripping from her arms
Full of smaller bags and odd shaped boxes hiding treasured delights
That My Pretty One tries to quickly make safe and secure and out of sight
For these Pretty Things have special value, which I can understand
Yet, it is the forgotten soft and noisy paper that fits into my plans

For tackling and tumbling and rolling and slashing to my heart's content
While My Pretty One sleeps the night away and I'm in my element
Making slick and crinkly piles from wide thin and shiny sheets
That offer next to no traction for my silky hands and feet
When coming in for a four point landing after a dashing leap

Which usually ends in a crashing interruption to My Pretty One's sleep
And a late night scowl quickly informing me that I'm in trouble deep
Knowing that our next 'Dexter Dance' will suffer another slight delay
Until I can better inform My Pretty One of a Kitten's definition of 'Play'

Nature's Art





This clear wet stuff that's called "Rain" is rather strange, yet entertaining
Requiring lots of attention given to its brief time remaining
Since it seems to arrive unannounced and without any rhyme or reason
Falling gently or in great torrents depending on the season

While I'm watching warm and dry from my favorite perch, the Window Sill
As the wet drops touch the clear Window and seem to slowly spill
In lines that are quite irregular and very rarely straight

Unless one drop hits another and both then fall at a much faster rate
Which is quite intriguing and sometimes requires a different point of view
While the big plump drops hang by themselves creating something new

Sunlight slowly returns and everything Outside seems to shimmer
The big plump drops stretch the light to make the Window glimmer
Dividing my attention as the flowers Outside open up and appear to rise
I might need a nap to help digest what's been happening before my eyes
