boo boos and skinned knees at 49 years old

I'm gonna be 50 years old on August 6th, yet I'm still getting boo-boos every week on my knees.

Just as one heals, I bang my knee and get a new one.

I take blood thinners, so one little scratch makes the room look like a crime scene. 

I may have boo-boos but, oh my god! I have Awesome calves!

I can't take credit for them. 

They came with my legs.

Skunk whisperer

I was sitting outside on the steps in Avalon when I felt something brush my leg.

I looked down and it was a blonde cat.

My Aunt Cynthia and Uncle George have two cats, Ava and Lona (of last year's fame), who are calico and grey/white.

So I said to this cat, "Where'd you come from?"

It turned its head up and looked at me, all cute and innocent. 

with his pointy black face. 

That's when I saw his black stripe.

I did a triple gasp, and said to him "Why are you out now, it's not even totally dark yet?" 

I swear he smiled at me 

Then, he turned around and scooted back under the house.

And I know, I just know, that he was excited to tell all the skunks and skunklets: 

"She's baaaack!!"
