Muffin’s Mewsings #9.🙀

Hi everyone, Muffin here!😺 Oh, I back again after very long time. I look in list to see when was my last “mewsings”, it very long time ago. So my human and me, we have ‘discussion’ about that. After he put bandages on feet he say sorry and here I am! But my oh my, it embarrassing to even talk about things today, my human, he do very strange things which I tell you about now. You maybe not even believe me, I not believe me too if I not see it with my own pretty little eyes.

My human go outside with camera, that mean there something he want to take pictures to show people. Oh good, I think, I watch out bedroom window, see what he picture taking. So I do that. Then I horrible fied when I see him crawling around on hands and knees on rocky hill!🙀 Oh no, what neighbors going to think when they see him do that? Oh my, so embarrassing. Then he lie down on ground with camera looking at something. I not see something and I got good eyesight. Finally he get up, moaning, groaning, making lots of weird noises. Oh my, hope neighbors not hear that! They think something wrong with him.

I mean, what human crawl on hands and knees on rocky hill? I think he spend too much time in sunshine. It making him do strange things now. Then he spread legs and do strange dance on hillside, right out in open! Oh my, that more embarrassing than other thing. Now I know he spend too much time in sunshine. Finally he come inside, he excited cause he get picture of some kind of fly. I sit there and blink at him. You get picture of fly bug? No, he say, it this kind of fly. That what I say, it fly. No, he say, it not fly. Then why you keep saying it fly.

No he say, just have fly in name, but it not fly. Then why fly part of name? Must be fly. No, he say it sort of like dragging fly. I know dragging flies, they not flies either, but called flies. He say, no, not dragging flies, it dragonflies. That what I just said, dragging flies. See? He really spend too much time in sunshine. Then he say this fly not really dragging fly, just kind of. I sit blinking again. Maybe you should lie down, I say to him. Then he says he show me. Good, want to see fly that is dragging fly but isn’t dragging fly and that’s why it called a fly even though it not. Human people very confused sometimes.

I think my human confused all the time. Anyway, he show me picture. Where this fly? He say right here. That is fly? No, he say, it not fly, it damselfly. That what I say, it fly. No, he say, not fly. Then stop calling it fly. That when we both sigh at same time. How can thin little blue thread thing be fly, have no wings. He say it have wings. Where? He say right here. You see wings? No, he say, he not see wings. But wings are there? Yes, he say. How you know wings are there if you not see them. They folded back here, he say, so can’t see.

These common around water, he say, like lakes and rivers. There lake or river on rocky hill? Of course not, he say. Then why blue thread thing on rocky hill if supposed to be by water? He not know, but he say lots of them up there. I sit blinking at him again. How lots? He say he see 4 of them. I blink again. What about dancing on hill? That not dance, he trying not to step on flowers. You see flowers? No, he say, no flowers there. That enough, I bite feet,😾 give him reason to dance. Oh my, well, that my afternoon. Hope you all having wonderful week ahead!

Muffin.😸 (as meowed to her human)

Sunday’s Sunshine #11.

Good morning everyone on this cool and rainy Sunday! Even when clouds, rain and storms come along, it’s always good to remember that the sun still shines. It’s just hidden from view for a short time, but it will be back again bringing with it warmth and cheerfulness again. Both rain and sun are needed for good healthy growth, in the natural world and in our lives as well.

Daylily.

There’s no squirrels around this morning so the chipmunks are making the most of that and have been very busy hauling away the peanuts that I put out for them this morning. Even the rain doesn’t stop them. They are hard little workers. Though they do take time out to have their “discussions”. Important things like, ‘I was here first’, ‘I’m the top chipmunk’, ‘the giant likes me best’. And they will take time to play with me too. They do seem to enjoy playing. Such as, elevator rides, hang gliding and racing.

Dahlia.

Plus they are sensitive little critters too. I was sitting outside with them and Skamper came along. He looked at the peanuts, then at me. He could tell something wasn’t quite right, so he climbed up my arm onto my shoulder, reached over, and touched my cheek with his nose. Then he ran down, picked up his peanuts and off he went. Hmm, a little thunder in the distance. That was enough for Muffin and she is now under the bed. She is going to have a rough morning.

Geranium.

Something was on my deck again last night, however I don’t know what, I was too tired to get up and look. Muffin went to the window and checked for me. It sounded like something big. And it was moving things around. When I went out to feed Sir George this morning I expected to see some mess out there. I was surprised. Nothing had been touched, nothing out of place. Perhaps Muffin and I were just hearing things. I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday and God bless!

Steve and Muffin. (😺10 days)
