I spent $10 today on a new chew toy for Stella. It was leather and said to be durable. It didn’t last long at all. Maybe an hour, if that
Instead of cotton or foam stuffing, it had jute which went all over the floor.
So frustrating and costly.

The barn cat left me a gift on the porch today.
It’s good to have barn cats. They have a job, to take care of little critters like this.
She got a little snack before leaving me this gift. I guess she wasn’t too hungry because she left half the mouse for me.

Be it be box or bag, my cats are ready to jump in. Today I’m getting ready for recycling and here they are.
Many times, Barn-E will curl up for a nap in a box. I have one set aside for him to use whenever he wants to nap.

I don’t remember writing this poem, but I remember when I was frazzled trying to raise a houseful of children.
Bob was always working. Some days he was on the farm, other days he was a mechanic at the canning company. Too many days he worked at both. That left me at home trying to stay sane while caring for our family. I must have written this one on a particularly crazy day.
A perfect mother, I was not.
Here I used writing to cope.
