A Long Winter’s Nap

We’ve had some very cold winter days lately – some have been rainy, some have been dry.  Once in awhile we’ve had days filled with sunshine.  And sometimes, on a cloudy day, the sun breaks through and warms our hearts (and our hands).  On one of those days recently, Miss Savannah decided to go outside.  It wasn’t long before I glanced through the window and saw that she was enjoying a bit of sunshine.She was asleep – on the hot tub!  Enjoying the warmth from above and a bit of warmth from below.  It was the perfect place to take a long, winter’s nap!  She seemed to be totally unaware that it was winter.  Just a warm, contented kitty cat.  She reminded me of a little song my dad used to sing to me:

Lazy bones, sleeping in the sun.
How do you ever expect to get your day’s work done?

Again, today, there were some ‘patches’ of sunshine.  Where do you think I found Miss Savannah?  You’re right!  Taking another long winter’s nap!  Just being a 'lazy bones' - sleeping in the sun!
