For every spot of rain brings forth a garden blooming with lovely flowers. - N.O.
For the amount of time I spent outside Today I find it hard to believe I did not tan. I'll try again tomorrow, said the heroine. She lays on a chaise lounge petting the cat. He loves his head and chin being rubbed. Her sister taught her that. For when she was a child, cats scared her. It took the love of this particular cat to allow her to not be afraid. She loves this cat even if his fur is responsible for her nose sniffles. She is too afraid to physically push him, when he misbehaves because she does not want to hurt the cat. The cat dines on fresh fish. Deboned by the cook and caught by his son. A fine river flows past the farming fields. She cooks the fish for a bit before serving it to the cat. She watches the cat devour the fish. Striking, gnawing and pouncing.
