K is for Kobie

That Kobie cat is such a brat,
Always into this and that,
He loves to watch the water run
A flushing toilet is so much fun,
He likes to take a relaxing nap
Or knead his paws on my ample lap,
Getting into mischief is what he does best
He puts my patience to the test,
If curiosity kills the cat, he’s burst his bubble
That cat can never stay out of trouble,
Kobie brightens up the dullest day
Always cheerful and ready to play,
He has a good time and doesn’t worry
He’s never stressed or in a hurry,
I could really learn a lot from that cat
To live in the moment and enjoy where I’m at!

    Kobie sounds like my kind of a person. :) I love the pic of him where he seems to be announcing his presence to the world.

      He's not a shy, timid cat, OG. Not at all. LOL! Thanks for commenting.

      Cats and Kids know best about how to enjoy life. It's we adults who take it all so seriously. Thanks for commenting, Shailaja.

    I like one cat at a time. My sister at one time had sixteen, and within fifteen minutes my eyes were red and crying. But I still love them!

#MicroblogMonday - Small Actions Do Make a Difference

Image
My family has a band made up of me on flute, my husband on bass clarinet, one son on tenor sax and the other on drums. We play music at the Presbyterian church we attend every third Sunday.  Our church congregation are a traditional, conservative bunch, not known for displaying too much emotion and often I assume that no one cares much if we play or not. Yesterday I was at a funeral for one of the members. A woman came up to me and told me how much she loves to see my sons perform and how the music just pours out of us. She always looks forward to the Sundays when we are performing and how much our music means to her. Her appreciation for our music reminded me that even small actions can have a big impact. It also reminded me that if someone does make a difference, it’s important to thank them and show your appreciation. Never assume that people know already as often they’re like me and don’t think that these small actions are a big deal. Never underestim...

#MondayMusings Acceptance of Loss and Change

This cartoon certainly touched a nerve this morning and triggered an outpouring of emotion that has evolved into this blog post. I sure miss my mom’s phone calls. That was our way of staying connected across the vast thousand mile distance between Ontario and Cape Breton.  My mom just loved to talk on the phone with friends and family, especially during the last few years of her life when she wasn’t as active anymore. She would come out to the sunroom, sit in her favourite chair (sometimes with an orange cat in her lap) and phone people. She used to put on the speaker phone which I never liked, but she found it easier and my dad could listen in, too. I used to tell her I wasn't a phone person and that I preferred email and Facebook are since I express myself best in writing.  What I wouldn't do for one of my mom’s phone calls now. Miss her every day. I'm adapting and going on, as one must do after losing a loved one, but life is defini...
