Miss Alley Hates the Air Conditioner


Well...this is what Miss Alley does when I DARE turn on the Air because it is 900 degrees out and humid

...ready...

Yes...she goes out on HER sun porch and lounges with a pathetic look on her face..

...She decides she is bored and stares in the glass window with the biggest eyes

Like she is being betrayed!

As if to say..How dare you Lock me out!

Oh this cat is too much sometimes!!

She literally goes into a hissy fit if I turn on that air

Runs around like a nut job

insists on going out

She will even pound her paws against the glass to get me to let her out

Warms her little self up a bit..

Feels better and decides to stare in at me as if I am torturing her!

Life with Alley is never dull!

The Cat in the Box


Yawn...


Oh Miss Kitty Alley...

What's Up?
Have I bored you today by being home with you ALL DAY??

I don't know what to do either besides look for a JOB!

I thought maybe putting your picture up yawning in a box was a good way to get my blog going?

What do you think?

I think I shall start the story of my Alley Cat ...and how she came to be mine..

And stop Yawning already kitty!

It will be a great adventure for us both.

My Tomato Plants


I have a tomato plant...Just one.

It is not growing.
Alley is..(too many treats since I have been home)!


I have about 3 tomatoes on it and they are pretty much the same size as when they bloomed off the flower..not good.
Perhaps it is the baby that SCREAMS all day and night that lives upstairs?
I think the tomatoes are afraid!!
I know I am!!!!
Perhaps it is just lack of light...sigh...
I think it is the SCREAMING!
I can't wait to get a house with no neighbors!
Miss Alley too!
She does not like all that noise while trying to sunbathe!

Coat of Many Colors








This is one of my favorite songs by Dolly Parton and I was inspired to do a painting..my snowmen of course and black cats....

Coat of Many Colors

Back through the years
I go wonderin once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didnt have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness
And I just couldnt wait to wear it
And momma blessed it with a kiss
Chorus:

My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

And oh I couldnt understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes

But they didnt understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me
