Loki on my head

As promised to chaquir

Loki on my head! Ugh, uncombed morning hair.

Yesterday, Scampi was sharpening her claws on the scratchy box and he came up next to her to tease her. She got a very playful look on her face, hissed a short little hiss and pretended to jump at him. He ran full speed through the house as she stood on her scratchy box looking quite pleased with herself. lol

This morning he was trying to get Cactus to play by mock jumping at her. She didn't budge. She didn't hiss. She just calmly stared at him and he collapsed down onto the bed as if he were being deflated. She is the Queen and "We are not amused." But even that is an act. She thinks he's cute and they do romp a bit.

Sorry about the lack of updates but my hands are hurting from the injections. In particular, my right hand is extremely painful. It's still working so I know he didn't hurt the nerve permanently. Must hang in until the week or two pass by for the cortisone to have full effect.

Jonathan invited himself to spend the weekend with us. I warned him I can't clean the way I normally do before he comes. I'm not physically up to it. He's fine with it and plans to help us out a bit. He's going through kitty withdrawal and the pictures of Loki have been too much for him. :)

He's on BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) right now on his way here from Berkeley. Eric took today off and will go downtown to pick him up from where the bus from BART drops him to save him a couple of transfers.

Jonathan is coming!! YAY! I just hope I have some energy to spend with him.

*stares at you*

You have such a nice face, you know.. Your eyes always sparkle. There's so fun and smiles in there to see.

Ow yes... Loki... *looks at Loki*
That's awsome!!!!
I'm so happy i could see this.

Big smooch to Eric for grabbing the camera!

How funny you should say that. I see all the fat! lol

The first moment Eric ever saw me he says my "impish grin" stole his heart. teehee!

I wonder sometimes if people see that even when I'm feeling tired or sick. Strangers often smile at me. It's so odd.

Wouter also agrees with me that your face looks really 'happy'. You have a cute smile and cheeks. Combine that with the sparkles in your eyes and the picture is complete to make everybody who looks at you, smile. (Not out of fun, don't get me wrong here, but they smile because you make them happy)

I don't know about proud. Happiness is a state of being. When you mix pride into anything so ethereal it can interfere with the purity of it.

Did I ever tell you about the near-death experience I had when I was three? I didn't remember it until my 30's because the circumstances were so horrible that I wasn't ready to process it until then. The positive from that is how clear the memory is for me now.

When I was pulled out of my body and into the tunnel of light, there were beings there who knew me and loved me. They gave me comfort. I was able to see the fabric of life and how my thread was important to the pattern. My part of the pattern wasn't done yet. While I was there, I knew what my purpose was. I had to go back. I told them I didn't know it was going to be so hard and I didn't want to go but the choice wasn't mine. When I slammed back into my body, my purpose became hazy and I don't remember what it is.

All I remember is that I'm supposed to make a positive difference somehow. Maybe that's why I've been blessed with an optimistic personality and the drive to do the right things in life. Since I don't remember what exactly I'm here to do, I try to make a positive difference in any way I can. Maybe that grumpy person I got to smile will discover some incredible new medicine just because I charmed them out of their grumpy thoughts. Or maybe they'll go home and encourage their kids instead of yelling at them and those kids will do something tremendous.

Maybe Jonathan will become the one to save the world from the effects of global warming because I was in his life to keep him aware of environmental issues after his parents died.

I may not know until my time comes whether I accomplished my purpose or not.

It might be that my entire purpose is to brighten the shade of the threads that touch mine.

That is what I try to do. It does come back to me in those times when I'm tired or sick and not smiling.

what an amazing experience!! Too bad you don't remember your destination and the purpose you had to come back.
Maybe your purpose wasn't to make BIG changes, but with smiling and making people smile you sure make a difference in this world.
Or maybe you're meant to be a sweet cat-mom to a great heap of lost cats out there.
Anyways.. i'm happy you came back and i had the honnor to get to know you

(((hugs)))
