Monday’s Musings. #34

Good morning everyone! I hope your Monday is off to a great start! Okay, I know some of you may not like Monday too much. Some may even hate Monday. But really, Monday is a day like any other day. It is just like Friday, only at the beginning of the week. For some of you Monday is actually the first day of the week, which I must admit to me seems a little strange. Here, Monday is the second day of the week. That actually makes a big difference. Sunday is the first day of the week and it is still part of the weekend. Monday is the second day, like Tuesday is in other places.

Tuesday is not such a bad day. People never talk about Tuesday being a day they do not like, it is always Monday. So having Monday as the second day makes it a lot better. Right? Sounds logical to me anyway. But then, I got up earlier than normal this morning and I am not quite sure I am even thinking at all yet. However, that seems to be kind of normal lately anyway. Plus it is colder this morning. And very windy. Which is not a good combination. Unless you are in bed with a dozen blankets on top of you. Then it does not matter how cold it is outside.

Until Muffin bounces on top of me like a kangaroo, wanting her breakfast. So I get up and she is still bouncing around on the floor all excited. Or she is just trying to stay warm because the floor in here is like ice. I realize just how cold because I forgot to put my slippers on. I go back for my slippers and Muffin stops bouncing. I come back out and she starts bouncing again like she hasn’t seen food since yesterday. She had her 2am feeding after all. (kick…groan) Found the table leg again. I should open my eyes but then I might wake up and I want to sleep some more yet. I give Muffin more food while she is running circles around my legs.

That makes me open my eyes fully so I don’t trip over her, which would be dangerous. For me, not her. She can get out of the way fast enough. I can only fall fast. Speaking of falling, it snowed a bit yesterday. Only about an inch or so, just enough to cover the seeds on the feeders so I had to go out and sweep the snow off and put more seeds out. They will find the other seeds too, eventually. Junior came around on Saturday, I have not seen him for a long time. I called him and he came right up to me. He is a deer, a buck, his antlers are still quite small but he has really grown a lot. And he remembers me, which is nice. Well, I need to get ready to go out shopping, thank you for reading, have a wonderful day and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
