How we enjoyed the rumble of thunder and the flash of lightening and the pitter-patter of rain last night. We always look forward to a good rainstorm - especially RIGHT before bed. There's just something about falling asleep to the pitter patter and the rumbling.
And while we love this wonder of nature, Gizmo does not. He's our little four legged, furry weather kitty. Move over local TV weather folks!!!
It could be a beautifully sunny day, not a cloud in the sky, but if you see him low-crawling (and the vacuum is not being used), wait a few minutes and the storm will arrive. Depending on the severity of the storm, there are many places he goes - usually all of them in the vicinity of the basement - on the steps, the further down the steps he is, the more severe the storm will be. If he's among the gagets & gizmos under the table in my studio, it's going to be pretty good and if he's tucked in under the steps flattened like a pancake among the unpacked boxes, hold onto your knickers, it's going to be a doozie!
Apparently last night it wasn't too bad - second step down and he was able to get some shut eye.
This is Tucker looking at me saying in 'kitty', "What a duface, his fat little body is going to roll right down those steps!"
And when he realizes I'm standing at the top of the stairs with the camera, ready to start snapping photos - "Uh, Mum, you takin' a picture of me?"
And when he realizes that the 'flashes' aren't lightening, but rather the camera flash, "Please, no photos right now, I'm not feeling very photogenic!"
(And yes, we have conversations with our 'kids'. You never know what's going to come out of those little mouths!)
We both, like Tucker were SURE he was going to roll down the stairs, but he didn't, our 'little' super balancing weather kitty freak of nature!
Hope you and your plants enjoyed the rain like we did!
Happy Days! It's almost Friday!
Min & Glen
