Spring New Beltane Moon
Homes have needs. This one needs Kate to feel full and she’s gone. I’m lucky I have the dogs or I would feel lonely.
The dogs get up very early, thanks to Gertie, usually around 5:00-5:30 am. Kate, with her residency experience of sudden waking, working and going back to sleep handles this if only because I sleep through it. She gets up, feeds the dogs and comes back to sleep. Most mornings all four dogs come inside after their meal and then wait quietly until we get up.
This morning Vega and Rigel, our two coon hound/Irish wolfhound dogs, decided, as they occasionally do, to stay outside. Vega will bark, sometimes 30 minutes later, to come back inside and Kate will get up and let her in. Well, I slept through it this morning, letting her back in.
When I finally got up, I let Vega and Rigel inside and Vega was so happy she came in, spun 
around, jumped up on the window seat (her place), back down and spun around again.
Talked to Kate last night and apparently Ruthie, 6 year old granddaughter, really liked her rhinestone studded belt I picked out for her at the Stock Show this January. “Are those real diamonds?” she asked. She has the hat, the vest and now needs only the boots to be a real Jewish cowgirl.
