Treasures 2005_17

The moment one give close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself
-- Henry Miller

Treasures are positive things that strike my fancy, that make me feel happy or thankful or interested. Treasures are memories encapsulated in just a few words. These are my Treasures for the past week.

  • Raven! We first met "online", then in purrson two years ago this week when Raven flewhalf way across the country to live with us.

  • "Nice car" from a mailman driving past as I was getting into the Scion :-)

  • My sweet Bebop who loves me and has forgiven me for taking him to the dreadful vetdoctor.

  • Deep fried paper-thin crispy onions

  • The old faucet removed, the new one installed, nothing broken, nobody hurt.

  • Bebop's sore lip healing quickly after receiving medical attention. (Poor Bebop. I do love you!)

  • Two handsome orange-breasted black headed birds with white spots at the feeder. They appear to be Black-headed Grosbeaks. Squirrel was excited.

  • A second Black-headed Grosbeak appearance.

  • Then there were three - Scion XBs in the parking lot where I work. A new silver one showed up today to join my maroon one and the blue one owned by a woman in the company on the third floor.

  • Squirrel's snurring - a very cute combination of purring and snoring.

  • Squirrel's "full body" kneading technique. He really gets into it - hips, shoulders, and all four paws.
