Notes From Underfoot

[resonant]

Who has seen the cat?
Neither I nor you.
But when you fall and break your leg,
The cat is passing through.

Who has seen the cat?
Neither you nor I.
But when you tumble down the stairs,
The cat is passing by.

My mom quotes that poem all the time whenever someone mentions the word wind. (And trust me, this can get old when sailing with her. *g*)

But I hope that you are OK!

Yes, I should think that would get old.

I said to the spouse, "What do you suppose the cat is thinking when he gets right under our feet like that?" and he said, "He's thinking: Me and my human. We walk along together. Sometimes my human affectionately bumps me with his foot."
