The Mysterious Tail Toy

Since Lyla has retired from her kitty-mommy days–her fir has really grown in and gone nuts. Being half Persian and half Maine Coon–that adds up to tons of awesome hair and a surprisingly fluffy tail.

Apparently, the extra fluff has even caught her by surprise. She’s been playing with this crazy new “toy” all afternoon–not realizing it’s… you know…attached.

I had to force myself not to laugh out loud when she pulled her own tail so hard that she almost flipped herself. The best part was when she looked all scandalized in my direction– like I had done something to her.

Lyla may be a little…ummm…slow on the uptake–so-to-speak, but she’ll save us a fortune on cat toys.

 

Kindred Roadies

A few months back we decided to listen to the Harry Potter series on Audible. We simply LOVE listening to books on tape, but I have to say, Jim Dale makes any book so enjoyable with all the voices and accents he comes up with.

One afternoon we were on our way out of town, so we put on The Prisoner of Azkaban to settle in for the drive. When from out of nowhere, a car speeds up and cuts in front of us like they had somewhere to be. It was a little startling because we had to slow down fast. But rather than being irritated, we just saw the license plate and started laughing.

I think it’s safe to say…

all is forgiven.

My Favorite Place

Black Bear Diner….

It’s official.

I’m deeply in love with you.

I always struggle with a full menu. You know…because if it all looks fabulous–how on earth could I possibly be expected to choose?!

I love ribs. I also love French toast. And then I really love salad.

The waitress helped by suggesting all three. Haha

What a smart girl.
