It Is Not Easy Being Animal Friendly

I sit outside wondering what those bossy raccoons are doing in the kitchen. They threw me out assuring me that spaghetti making is their specialty. Do not let the crows in, I cautioned them. They steal my shiny jewelry. It is not easy being animal friendly. I sit on the porch, trying not to hear My husband’s favorite drums being played in the living room. Obviously those bozos have let the opossums in!

It is rather hard when they boss you out of your house like that! Hahahaha! I can picture this SO vividly... and I LOVE it! ;D

I feel they are in there, stirring the spaghetti with one paw and dancing to the tune of the drums with the other paws.

They only show the upside of fairytale living! I bet those dwarfs were a piece of work too ;)

Thank you Smita. I love my grandchildren, my animals and my garden, not necessarily in that order - depends on the moment.
