Off my deck one morning I captured these tree tops standing in the cold. A small stone to keep in my pocket was their apparent happy greeting of the sun and persevering, waiting it out. I'm reminded of this same truth whenever I see  four legs, paws or feathers visiting our yard during the day.

Bean the cat seems perturbed as she watches me pack up the last of the Christmas decorations. No more sneaking around, chewing on the tree or sitting in the empty boxes. Life can be like that. Since she won't allow anyone to pick her up or hold her, there'll be no explaining the facts to this serious little feline.

oh, it makes me a bit sad that Bean won't be held. how does she get lovin' like muffins from the oven? she's adorable. Did you know that I also have a kitty named Bean? yep, three sisters - Daiseymae, Beanie, and Mikey. they will be 15 years old this coming May. And they all love to be held. happy week to you Noni. keep your toes warm. (it's freezing rain here).

Lovely background and header ... our Jack has only now after 2 yrs of living with us allowed me to pick him up and hold him for a minute or two but only in the kitchen ... because I suspect he thinks if he is nice to me so close to FOOD he might get some ..
