What fun! I’ve been lying on the table in the office, on the papers and things that are there. Before that, I was in a box on the table. The table is a really fun place, so many little things to scatter. There are lots of other things to do today, but I will get to them later. Just the other day, I scattered the bits of paper by the shredder. That is a lot of fun, too.
There are so many amusing things to do in the office. When I get a little tired, I jump up on the top of the computer desk. That means that I jump on the desk, then up on top of the monitor, and then up to the top, over the shelves and things. There are four pictures hanging on the wall over the computer desk. Mom says they are pictures of her, her two sisters, and her brother. I like to play with her brother’s picture, which is hanging just over where I like to lie down. Mom used to straighten it up every time I made it crooked, but now she just leaves it the way it is. She’s just no fun at all. It was a great game.
Just the other day, we were all on the couch, watching a movie. I was up on the top of the back cushions and Mom was lying down next to Dad. I got tired of the movie, so I jumped down hard on her stomach. I don’t know why, but she didn’t find that as much fun as I did. Yesterday we watched a movie. Mom said it was called “Lady and the Tramp.” I watched a lot of it, because there were lots of dogs in it and sometimes they barked. It’s kind of silly to make a movie about dogs, since felines are much more interesting. I guess everyone likes different things in life. Mom says that a lot of people have dogs, and I do hear them barking sometimes. Felines are so much quieter and, I think, better behaved, although I really haven’t known any dogs.
I haven’t gone out on the roof since my scary experience. I’m not sure I will go out there again. Mom keeps telling me now that it’s very hot out there and I wouldn’t like it anyway. It’s hot in the garage, too, so I never like to stay out there for very long. The patio is pretty hot, too, but there is shade, and sometimes the air moves a little bit. We go out there only in the morning. Mom says that is before it gets really hot out there. We’ve been out there a few times lately, because Mom thinks maybe her purple lilac vine has died. I’m not sure what that is, but she is sad about it. She has given it water a few times, and even what she calls food, but she thinks it is gone. That makes her sad, so I am sad, too. Poor purple lilac vine!
Miss Patchy thinks it’s odd that I lie down with her for a nap, but keep my eyes open. Who wouldn’t? It is boring! Somehow she can just lie there sleeping, for hours and hours. A lot of the time, she sleeps under Mom and Dad’s bed. Another boring place! Sometimes I like to sleep in the water box. Mom and Dad buy bottles of water and keep the packages on the floor in the dining room. When some of the bottles have been taken out, I like to crawl in there. I chew on the plastic covering for a while and then sometimes I sleep. The water packages are kept right under the window, which is another fun thing to do. I like to get up on the window sill and look out. Sometimes those buzz birds come near and tease me. Ooooh! Would I love to get my paws on one of those!
The other day, Mom was going out on the patio, and I rushed to go out as soon as she opened the door. I bounced right back! I could feel the hot air coming through, and the sounds of the outside were coming through, and I could see out, but I couldn’t get through. Mom laughed and said I had to wait until she opened the screen. Oh! Not sure what it is exactly, but now I know to watch for it. I didn’t realize it was there, since I could see through it. If I look closely, though, I can see it. Sometimes humans have funny things. I will have to learn more about these screens. It was kind of an embarrassing moment.
Well, I think I see some things that need to be played with, so I will end for now, but I will be back.
Regards,
Mina
