Shiny Distractions

Has you ever been in the middle of doing something

only to get caught up by a more interesting thing

that totally distracts from the destination that was the original

intention.  Its hard to stay on course when there are so many

things to smell and then you just have to investigate everything

else there despite going to the window a little birdie and human tv

Of course those little figurines are sometimes more interesting than

window as bird tv gets on the fritz and the other things are always

there for a perusal and a sniff before it is time for the next 

stop to see what other type of fun there might be.

Pawsitioning and Distractions

When I get on my Mom's lap I like to pawsition myself

purrfectly before resting and this requires that I turn around

in circles making biscuits.  The lap has to be tender before it

is possible to sit in it for a while. A non tender lap is very unconfortable

so the right amount of turning needs to be done before there is any settling

on the lap for a purr sesssion and rest.

Sometimes this process goes on for such a long time that I get distracted

 from my original goal. I like to go up on a lap when Mom is doing something so there

are sometimes interesting items are left on the bed.  These items are at least worth

some investigation to see what they are and if they are cat toys.  Once I

am distracted the pawsitioning gets stopped to tend to the new thing .
