Cats & Fleas & friends

My bangs are in my face and there are fleas all over the place! Buddy is jumping,jumping everywhere. I put buddy and whitewash out on the porch and they took one look at the wind whistleing through the trees and felt the cold fierce air and jumped back inside. It is cold in the house,must turn the heater up!

Whitewash is looking through the window at the front yard and the wind whipping the ginger leaves around and around. He is watching the cars go by on the street in front and the baby squirrels playing by the water oak.

I've had my mushroom and egg omlette and my coffee for the morning and now it is time to shower and wash the morning dishes. Then I will vacuume the living room and the hallway and bedroom,make the bed and call James to tell him to pour the sauce on the buffalo wings. James is one of my other friends. He is the one I see everyday. I often share meals with him. Sometimes he gives me something to cook and sometimes I cook something of his. Today he is cooking the wings I gave him. He has never cooked wings before and is developmentally disabled and so can't read the package so I will call him in 50 minutes time to tell him to pour the wing sauce on them.

My other friend is my childhood friend Gail. She lives a couple blocks from where we grew up in Titusville florida which is on the central east coast of Fl. near Cape Kennedy where the Space Center is. My father and Gail's father worked for a subsidiary of NASA whose name has escaped me at the moment(senior moment). Anyway...they both worked at the Cape where the rockets were shot off. Both were electronics technicians. It was during the cold war. They were spying on the Russians. My father worked there from 1958 when I was born until 1972.. His job was top secret and not even the public knew about many of the rockets that went up. My father would sometimes wake us up in the wee hours of the morning to go outside to our back yard to watch a launch. Anyway, I've known Gail ever since I could walk and she is a dear friend.
