"Lynn, I don't care about TV. I just don't want strangers in the
house. I'm 'fraid of everyone."
I know Precious. But one or two times a year, it seems
I must call on outside help.
This time the lovely company that provided Precious
with her most favorite and unendingly expensive
blue bag, needed to be called upon.
I pay way to much for some basic TV, so when I turn
the boob-tube on, I expect to see what I want to see.
Not a message "weak or no signal".
The good news is the man came at 9 AM when Precious
is having her 6 hour morning beauty nap under the bed.
I closed the door so she could hear less and smell less.
When he replaced a 9 year old cable with a new one
and that fixed the problem, he was gone in 45 minutes.
But Precious was so un-nerved by the smell of his shoes
on the carpet and his hands on the credenza.
She did get her 5 PM brushing and then dinner. But instead of
waiting until closer to 6 to get on my legs, she jumped up
at 5:20 and stayed until 8:30 that evening.
And she slept with me! She usually sleeps in our chair all
night and I check on her at midnight. In the hot summer,
she sleeps with me since the ceiling fan is right over the end
of the bed. But this night, she came in at 9:30 and stayed until
5 AM. She did seem less nervous the next day and went back
to sleeping in the living room with the TV.
"I love my blue bag but don't let anyone in again. They maysteal it and my frog."
Well, you can see the groundhog saw his shadow
Thursday morn. I was grateful for sunshine as it
is unheard of around here most weeks at a time.
However, he did not make points with me since
he is predicting MORE winter weather as he
safely goes back to bed where he does not care
about the current conditions.
This week Precious has flash frozen eye lashes and whiskers.
Back to winter temps. 10 F at night this week and of course
at 6 AM with window time!
Thanks for stopping by for a visit and a comment.
It is much appreciated.
