nature doesn't sleep...





There is no such thing as "Just a cat.”
~Robert A. Heinlein



While MILO is taking a CAT-NAP on the back porch...
(oh yeah...she said she wasn't sleeping...she was meditating.)


ANYWAY,
while milo's eyes were closed...



an itty-bitty grasshopper sat on a chrysanthemum,




a Buckeye butterfly rested on the dirt,




a mushroom pushed up out of the earth,




a squirrel quenched his thirst,




the Gloriosa Lily vine  climbed a tree,




a crow was yelling from high in a pine,




a Brown Thrasher listened between drinks,
(listened to milo snoring, no doubt.  oh...milo can't be snoring. she's meditating. i forgot.)



AND
a Fence lizard...is happy that milo is...uh...meditating...has her eyes closed...
so he can wander about without fear of being chased!



"You'll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut."
~Dr. Seuss



alright...back to some chores on my list...
laundry. run to store. feed milo. more laundry. mop. let milo out. wash dishes. feed milo.


stay cool.  be safe.
