Trafzer Funnies

Today is officially to be review Monday, but I painted all week-end, and have read/watched nothing new. I do have to say that the new blue/gray/green color in my office is beautiful.

I do have a funny story about Linus. Often when we are in the backyard, he is distracted by squirrels, twigs, leaves, rabbits...the list goes on and on. Usually though, if he doesn't come when he is called, he can be lured in with the promise of food. Linus knows that "breakfast" means there will be a bunch of food put into his bowl, while "snack" means just a little food, or a doggie treat. The other day it was beautiful out and Linus was flopping about with all of his legs in the air. I asked if he wanted a snack and he immediately righted himself and bounded for the door -- ears and slobber flying. We stepped inside and much to our surprise, Mary, the kitten was curled up, sound asleep in his food bowl. Linus looked up at me and his eyes glowed like a kids on Christmas morning. He ran over and nosed and licked around her. She rolled out of the food bowl and onto the floor where she proceeded to waddle over to the desk and squeeze herself underneath it (she's a very "fluffy" kitty!) Linus was sad to see his "treat" disappear, but cheered up when he received TWO of his normal doggie treats.
