You know what THAT is?-------->>>
THAT is a picture of what we fondly call "kitchen time out." It is a regular part of our day.
Every morning, after I've cleaned the birds' cages and we've sung the Good Morning Jesus song, I go into the kitchen to chop their fruits and veggies and make coffee. Invariably, I hear the 'tick tick tick' (talons don't 'do' pitter patter) of little feet trying to sneak up on me, sometimes to ninja gak my toes, sometimes to eat my baseboards, and sometimes just to visit. For some reason, if I put him on one of the kitchen stools he is content to sit there for HOURS. I could understand it if he was getting lonely or something, but the kitchen and the living room are really just one room, and not a very big one, at that. I guess sometimes he just likes a change of scenery.
I think I could use a little of that myself. It is a gorgeous day, full of promise, and I have been staring out of my picture window long enough. I am going to go run the motor on my little boat for a few minutes, then I'm going to take the big boat up the river and see if I can catch a few honks from truckers on the interstate. Don't you just love my ambition?
And yes. I know. I said STOOLS.
