I don’t know. I’m in Wisconsin. The cats are home. The kittens are at the vet. They’re getting their spayings done at the vet’s leisure and they are on display for possible homes. The big cats are home fending for themselves for attention from Daddy. Except Natasha.* She’s curled up … Continue reading →
This month’s Merry-Go-Round Blog Tour focuses on our first work. I know I must have written a story in the second grade. I think we all do, and I’m sure my mother saved it, and I have it now. I have a box of that stuff — as soon as … Continue reading →
