Various people screaming out in the street. Now police cars showing up. Other cars screeching away from the scene.

Never a dull moment.

It is a beautiful summer morning with the birds tweeting merrily around the gardens and field.

As soon as we have had our mindful walk around the field at the end of the garden, I will spend the day pottering around, sowing lots of seeds and then have a nap before my evening with a dear friend.

I have absolutely nothing to complain about - nature sure does cheer up the soul.

I hope you all have a lovely day today too :heart:

My brain is running on hyperspeed tonight and driving me crazy. Also just dropped muffin crumbs down my shirt and swatted a tick from my neck (didn’t know it was there) onto my phone amazingly and then got up to toss it but thought it fell off but it just crawled under which I found out when I went back to sit and ended up brushing it onto the floor and then smashed it 5x with a dog toy and left it on the floor :roll:

I got the rest I needed yesterday afternoon. I'm getting my laundry done right now. I guess that since I have no one decent to turn to anymore, I'll have to communicate with the people who gossip about me or say nasty things about the unusual things that I do.

Quote:
Animals have been used throughout the history of human warfare, usually as things that are as simple to light on fire as humans but much easier to talk into it. But rarely do we see animals being used as elegantly as Cambyses II of Persia used cats. He was fighting the Egyptians in the battle of Pelusium in 525 B.C. and as we all know, the cat held a high place in Egyptian society as sacred creatures and the Achaemenid Empire sought to use this to their advantage in the invasion of Egypt.

Cambyses ordered his men to paint felines on their shields, and he brought hundreds of actual cats into his front lines. The plan worked: The Egyptian archers refused to fire on his felines, fearing that they would injure the animals—a crime punishable by death. Instead they retreated, and most were massacred by the pursuing Persians. This ultimately led to the capture of the pharaoh.



I never knew cats were involved in conflicts, how interesting.

We all do some very disheartening things, like how I once crushed my optics- glasses without realizing they were on the floor of my bed, as well dropped my smartphone multiple times, not discounting the many other maladies I've done which are intensely embarrassing.

I put my laundry in two separate dryers so that it would be done faster than the 99 minutes it would take if I put it all in one dryer.

I was hoping someone else would find it as interesting as me.

Cats know, very well, the "law of the jungle."
