Thinking of new words to make poetry out of a llama… Actually, Caesar is Argentine, although many llamas come from Tibet. And he has a fan club and followers and shows up at protests to calm the crowd. Is this wonderful or what? Mama remembers a poem by Ogden Nash that her mama used to tell the kids for a laugh: In far Tibet there lived a llama, he...
Read MoreRocky Mountain High
Well, not the actual Rockies, but a charming mountain made of rock in mama’s office, with my favorite sitting cloth on top, and climbing it (in the past) was not only for the view from its height but gave me a little buzz, too!

Maybe I’m not quite as svelte as I think I am… Well, mama really needs my magic touch, I can just tell. She did go to the therapist, who was very gentle and, mama said, worked most of the time with his eyes closed, so she felt that he was feeling through his hands the places that needed...

Read MoreDouble Double Soil and Trouble
Maybe this was once a well? Oh, okay, okay, toil, but who toils around here except mama and papa. Toiling was never in my contract, although trouble was definitely part of the agreement, haha. So why don’t mama and papa make this little circle into a kitty pen, like a play pen for...
