Pepper the Wonder Kitten!
Pepper is so funny and in her own way very sweet. She's too hyper to want to be a lap baby, and we think the time she lived outside has a bit to do with that as well. However, she is fun to play with and copes very well with what we believe is a sight problem. FIL guided us in a direction today. We know she has some sort of vision problem, especially tracking anything not on the floor. He suggested that she has no depth perception. She more than makes up for her vision issue with her hearing and sense of smell. Daughter wanted to change her name to Sonar last week, but she's already started to recognize her name, Pepper. Y'all will be glad to know that she's gained back the weight she lost last week and is doing well (*knock on wood*) thanks to a good Vet, love and lots of prayers. Oh, and y'all will also be glad to know she's been playing with a couple of the older kitties. Well, playing- harassing, same thing, right? Today has been boring. I'll admit it. The weather was nice, unfortunately the mosquitos thought so, too. The Out-laws picked the kids up this afternoon and they were back within an hour. The gnats and other bugs bothered them, but we have a quart of fresh picked blackberries sitting in the refrigerator. (MIL has the other quart. *G*) I can guarantee they won't be in there long. The kids have already been into some of them! I did do something today that was kind of selfish. Other than a load or two of laundry and light cleaning (and taking care of dinner) I have rested today. Um, the drainage has had a lot to do with it, but whatever works. Tomorrow is going to be packed with things. Daughter has a Doctor visit tomorrow morning (follow up to a couple of weeks ago), plus we have grocery shopping at a few places to take care of and the library has two more of my holds. I suspect by the time we're done I will want nothing more than to sit down. *G*
Reading-wise I'm still reading High Five by Janet Evanovich. I didn't read much today just because I felt a bit dizzy and out-of-step. I hope when we go upstairs and I can take something for it, I'll feel more like reading.
That said, it's time for me to head off-line and take care of a few night time chores. I hope y'all had a lovely day. I wish a fun and funny Friday for y'all. Goodnight and Hugs, B.
