Wouldn't it be nice if everyday life was as peaceful, beautiful, and perfect as pictures on a blog?
Of course no picture here, but this is more typical. Poppy ready to leave for work turns on the porch light, looks out and says, what's that Eli is chewing on? I look out and say, looks like the lining from your Crocs. Good grief, says Poppy going out to take it from Eli. Poppy yells back to me, it's not my Crocs, it a little rabbit and it's dead.
Now Eli can't go off the porch during the night and for sure bunny rabbits don't come on the porch. This was the doings of little Smokey. Smokey killed that rabbit, brought it on the porch and Eli stole it from him.
My first job of the morning was to have a decent burial for the little bunny...which left me feeling very sad indeed.
Pulling myself together, I hurried and finished with the housework and went to work in the garden.
Around midday on my way inside, I happened to look up and there on our teeny tiny porch, lo and behold...a BAT!
Right there over my head!! Shiver!! This bat hung there all day with Eli, Weetie, Smokey, and me going in and out, noisily opening and closing the door.
Poppy got home around 4:00 and as he walked up the steps I showed him the bat. He was excited and wanted to get a closer look so he opened the front door and put down the load he was carrying, turned around and the bat was gone. Seriously, GONE! After hanging there all day! Good thing I got a picture.
Do you think old sweet Eli will ever outgrow his teddy bear? These pictures were taken just last night.
He is such a big sweetie pie.
Smokey is the only kitty we have that will curl up in the rocking chair for a nap. Looking all sweet and innocent! Wouldn't hurt a flea!
We may have rain coming in this afternoon. Guess I need to do a few things outside while the sun is shining. I appreciate your stopping to visit. And again I'm sorry for not replying to your nice comments. It feels like you stopped by and I was not home.
Love,
Henny
