We have two kitties with very distinct personalities. Alice is cautious, flighty at loud noises and runs at the sight of a new person or animal. She's always on guard. Sam, on the other hand, is very laid back almost to the point of appearing to be lazy. He loves new people, is curious about new animals, lolls about in the yard and on the porch, and runs to the front gate when he sees people approaching. They are both almost grown...
I don't wanna think the worst. I refuse to think the worst. So, what do I do? Take a chance and get me another kitty to keep Alice company? I'd like to, but at the same time, we'd already had all their shots and vet visits and all that was left was the neutering. It does get expensive. I really need another skittish kitty like Alice. My Mamaw's barn cats were almost feral. Of course, you couldn't catch them for any kind of health care and there were always kittens, but they kind of fended for themselves and did their own hunting even tho Mamaw threw out scraps for them every day.. I did not want to get too attached to my cats cuz I knew that living on the farm can be perilous at times for the animals. But I guess it's almost impossible NOT to get somewhat attached.
On a lighter note, my future daughter in law, Lindsey, and her mom and Josh invited me to go with them Friday evening and all day Saturday to look at possible wedding venues. They want an outdoor wedding and we looked at four different settings in our area. A ranch wedding, a lakeside wedding, a beautiful estate wedding and a wedding at an Arabian horse farm. All very different, all beautiful. I'm curious to see what they will choose. They have a couple more they are going to look at, but they need to decide probably THIS week what they'll do. Dates are filling up fast! Lindsey and Josh are wanting their fairy tale wedding! I know it'll be wonderful!
I was SO touched that they invited me. Usually, the wedding is mostly planned by the bride and her mother. But Lindsey and her mom want me to be involved in the process - I think that is so special! Her mother is an absolute jewel and I know from whom Lindsey gets her sweet nature. This photo of the "kids" was taken after Josh had taken Lindsey fishing. He proposed on the lake after they got through fishing. Lindsey was wanting to go cuz she'd never been before! It was sweet, and my family and Lindsey's family were all at the farm to greet them after the big event for their party! (they DID catch some fish, too!)Well, I gotta get busy here at work. I'm sorry I'm not able to post more right now. It's been SO hectic with the ... well.... you know.... you're all busy, too. I think we have something going nearly every single weekend this fall - ALREADY - My calendar is FULL! It's that time of year, and the holidays will be here before we know it. Oh PLEEEEAAAZZZEEE, can we skip Christmas this year?????? I just want Autumn and Thanksgiving to last and last! I love Thanksgiving! Autumn kinda gets skipped over here in Texas cuz it's so blasted HOT til right before Thanksgiving. I want a looooooonnnnngggg Autumn this year! Christmas is too much pressure - it all falls on ME. Whine, whine, whine!!! And we still are having near record high temps in the mid-90's and TOMORROW'S THE FIRST DAY OF FALL, FOR PETE'S SAKE!
Ya'll have a great week, 'n Keep your dress down!
