Good Morning and Welcome to Sunday the 26th day of August, 2018.
Happy Birthday to a friend of ours who turns “12”today.
She is almost a teenager ….. hard to believe …. when we met as neighbours you were a little girl….not even in school.
The sky is partially cloud ….. a bit of smoke lingering in the air …. possibly some rain clouds.
Cooler than the average for this time of year but that is okay.
We had a little rain shower last night.
Today will be a quiet day just looking after the boys.
Putting away the laundry that has been drying in the laundry room.
Snuggling with pups and visiting with Humphrey the Cat.
I had a start last night.
I went to visit Humphrey and Cinder after 9:00 p.m. last night ….. Cinder was awake and when I turned on the light …. she was staring right at me.
Her eyes are so cool.
Round black with a sliver of lightness going through them.
Geckos are so unique.
I do not see her much when I look after them.
Again this morning she was laying on a stem of the plant that is her in home …. Not sure if she was sleeping or not.
Usually during the day she is in her sleeping pod.
So twice I have seen her in less than 12 hours.
Very unusual.
Well I have Master Teddy in my lap and it is not quite so easy to key with someone who wants you to hold him.
We have had a good few days together.
The boys have played, we have walked and just hung out.
Mr. Alvin has been eating grass the past couple of days.
Last night he threw up once and I thought he was going to do so again.
He has no problem eating or drinking.
Perhaps he has been eating too much.
I am watching that carefully today.
Teddy seems to like Alvin’s food AND Alvin will eat his and Teddy’s if given the chance.
Well time to go and have coffee.
Teddy is moving about and I do not wish to drop him.
His Aunt is picking him up tonight.
His Mom and Dad will remain away on vacation for an additional few days.
He will be excited to his Auntie “J.”
Life is good.
I heard somewhere the following and it makes sense to me:
“The age that is one’s highest self esteem is “60.”
I definitely can see that.
It has taken me to age 60 to be better in my own skin, to know what I like, and to be confident in myself.
Life is better as we age.
Have an awesome day.
Special Hello to: my all my girls ….. each year you get better and better.
Always, Carol, Alvin and Master Teddy.
