Cat and Dolphins, dazzling and internal clock

- Spotted on facebook, this little film of a cat and dolphins playing together was just the best part of my day yesterday. The cat must be accustomed to being around the water. :)

- Hearing that my outdoorsy niece went to a country club dance. I asked if she wore a pretty party dress and her mother said she had no idea. But pictures on facebook confirm that she was dazzling.

- Friend Jerry's post on facebook at midnight, "I hate thunder storms in the middle of the night but even worse tornado warnings on top of that, how am I suppose to sleep?" Apparently he wasn't sleeping, but I slept right through it and after another power outage, am lucky to have my internal clock that got me up a few minutes ago!

Thank you to facebook friends for the hastily thrown together post today! :)

I love sleeping through storms. It means I finally fell asleep.

That cat must have tiger blood (no disrespect to Charlie Sheen - lol) as they like the water :)

Storms always seem to wake me. I generally listen and see how severe they are and if they aren't crazy-wild, I slip back to sleep.

Wow. That film of the cat and dolphin was way cool. We had dolphins follow our boat in Florida. Once, though, I saw one jump up twice and fall back down into the water in a canal where we were fishing. Actually, Lynn (and I don't often share this one) YEARS earlier I had asked the Lord 'for a sign...;' which I had specified as 'a dolphin jumping in the water'(near the Sunshine Skyway Bridge) when I would drive my son to All Children's Hospital (in Tampa) that he would be O.K. (For years of driving him to and from the hospital....I did watch for this sign...)

I never got this sign, I thought...until the one day (yes, some years later...) that we were fishing as a family in the canal...My son was actually there that day, asleep (as a teenager) in the car...

Normally I wake up if a pin drops - so I must have been extra tired yesterday. I think I was.

I wonder if that is a boat or dock cat and is just used to the water. Very cute, I think.

That is an amazing story. Sometimes the answer doesn't come right away, I guess.

That is the cutest thing ever!! Kept thinking Kitty was going to go swimming. :) So sweet. Talon, was it really Stripey?? :) Looks like!

A dazzling aunt, a dazzling niece
Rain yes, but no tornadoes, please.

Cute picture--porpoises can be fun to watch--especially when they come up to a boat

Can't wait to see the video on BBMs computer- I remember my girls in their Prom Gowns looking so classy. They don't get to dress up these days.
TG I don't have to run to the basement for Tornado warnings here! I'd prob have a place to sleep there if I had too-
Good thing you awoke! Last week I slept late by accident because I'd dreamt it was Day Off! Woke up n realized it just in time to make it in-

Jannie -

That kitty does look a little like Stripey. I liked how he stepped out on that metal thing like he was used to it. And his name is Thunder - like that, too.

You are dazzling, too, my friend!

xo

Sage -

I've never seen one in person. I would love to though.

RK -

I'm glad you liked it.

I had been so disappointed that I didn't get to see my niece on my last visit, but it was because she went to a dance. I was glad to hear she was doing something so girly. :) She is the niece who I usually see wearing muddy boots - love that about her though.
