A view from my window

So I'm putting up the dishes this morning when I can't shake this feeling of being stared at. But. By who? WhoOO0oo? I slowly lift my eyes upward and see two eyes staring at me on a rooftop next door.

Is that an owl?

I stop and stare through the window above the sink for a series of moments before my eyes are able to adjust to this owl-like figure. And then my heart melts.

She is my lovely cat, Mollie!!

Molly is a girl after my own heart...she's A CLIMBER!! I think I finally found my sherpa! Time to get my lottery number for Everest and sign us both up...how much you think she can carry in a pack for me? Can you just see her with her little mini sherpa back pack and crampons?

Mollie would be absolutely adorable! But. She's not so much into the cold. I had just fed her before she went on her morning climb. After a bit of a rest at the top, she came back down and curled up on my bed fast asleep. :O)

Oh lil' miss mollie. You are truly the queen of your home.
