Morning, Tail Painting, Misty and Lily Love, Peacock and Holes

 Good morning ole pals!

Yes, I am and always have been

allergic to mornings!

Yesterday I stated that my son works

at a casino in SD County.

Liz was wondering if it is the same

as the one my son works at.

He used to work at Barona but 

for the last five yrs he has been

at Viejas. No longer on the floor, 

he is doing supervisor duties these 

days while he finishes up his college 

courses to move on up and out 

of casino work.

Sat. Amber and I went to Lowes and 

other places running errands.

Funny statement she made though, 

"I see now why the kids don't want to 

go anywhere with you"!!!! 

WHAT? 

Only cause I talk to everyone. I just

strike up conversation with anyone

and laugh. Amber is not like that.

haha

Not been painting lately but

for Misty, she must have been trying 

to help me at one point.

I have not had the heart as of 

yet to wash it off her tail.

It looks so cute to me.

Speaking of Misty and actually

all cats, they do changes along

the way of life. Misty is now

at the age that Lily was when 

she stopped cuddling, crawling on 

my chest and letting me hold her.

With that, Misty is not doing

near as much as she used to.

I miss it.

However, yesterday I think she

was cold, temps dropped with rain

that moved in on Sat. With that, 

I was honored that she wanted

to snuggle.

She also apparently wanted to 

touch me!

You all know that Lily 

wants love when Lily wants

it and she even wants it where she

wants it.

However, I am breaking her of

standing in the house and 

yelling at me to come to the 

bedroom, lay across the bed

and rub her head.

She actually crawled up on the 

daybed on the deck with me the

other day for some rubs.

Course, I think she wanted

to know mostly if this angle 

made her feet look big.

Oh mom, that is like the coolest

drug in the world, I space out

when you love my head.

I have to wonder often what I 

would do without the entertainment

of my girls!

Last yr while working in the yard

in the front and the girls had access

to the back deck, I kept hearing

what I thought was Lily yelling 

at me. Come to find out it was not.

My neighbor and I have talked about

it and both agreed it was a 

peacock. It did not pull up on Merlin but

I went to google and asked for 

the sound on a peacock and that is 

what we have been hearing. 

Gosh, now we both are on a mission

to locate them.

They are so colorful.

I have not read up on them so 

I really don't know the personality of 

them but somewhere I thought I 

heard they were rather mean.

How could something that beautiful

be that mean?

Talking critters, neighbor on the other

side was a mess the other day.

She saw these holes in her yard, only

in the dirt areas. She was afraid they

were snakes, I looked at them and 

let her know, not snake.

Not big enough for armadillo, 

pretty sure they were not moles,

and I had none in my yard.

She said there were about 

60 or more. By the time she freaked

enough to ask me, she had poured

gas down the holes. Her go too.

Thing is, I am pretty sure that 

the hole was made by something 

leaving, my guess was turtles.

She looked them up and they 

appeared to be just that turtle holes.

She was upset she poured gas in the 

hole but I assured her, the hole is there

cause they have hatched out.

BUT...I wished she would stop

using gas on those and the ant hills,

and stop straying her weeds with 

killer. 

But, that is just me.
