Sundays in the sun with Ethel

Hey Tony Tigerbear here.

This is me
And Ethel
She does not know I am lying beside her, I am stealth
And she is blind.

This has been a heck of a weekend. My mom deserted me.
Seriously deserted me. Something about a concert weekend........
I wish she would ask my permission.
Thursday I waited on the couch for her. When I called her name she didn't answer.
When she came home I told her all about my day.
Friday night I slept on the kitchen table waiting for her. When she came in I almost let her touch me.......and then I turned away got down and slept with daddy. Only until mom fell asleep. Then I slept with her.
Saturday much the same. Out all day home late..... And tired and her feet hurt.
I paced for three days. My feets hurt too.
Sunday I forgave her. I am good like that. Actually I woke up and forgot about the previous day. I live in the now people.
I learned a new word this weekend
Diatribe
Dad says that's how mom speaks. One diatribe after another.
He can't hear her.
Daddy and Papa can't hear and Ethel can't see. Mom's feet hurt and Mia just wants to play.. This house is a mess. I am so happy I am here to take care of people. I hear everything, even things that are not there. Sometimes I stare at nothing just to freak mom out. It is very effective. (Not as effective at mice but it will do).
Anyway, I have rattled on enough. I need to sleep. It is exhausting to be me.
Now it is good morning to Oz and beyond and of course g'day to the north.

Until I can get my fingers on the iPad again...........
