Exhausting

Working from home is just exhausting!

A grey, stripy tabby cat lounges on a cozy fleece blanket with her eyes squinted shut.  She appears to be on the brink of sleep.

I had to participate in 9–count them, NINE—conference calls today.

That’s as many meetings as I have lives!

The same tabby cat has succumbed to sleep on her cozy blanket.  She is obviously working much too hard!

I fully expect proper recompense in the form of delicious nom-noms and/or cuddles and ear skritches from my Human Mommy.

What would she do without me?

Reject Portrait #3

Okay, you did a nice job of updating the foliage color as per my directions and my tail is magnificently posed…

A magnificent black house panther sits upright atop a dark brown wooden platform built around the trunk of a young redbud tree.  His tail extends magnificently behind him and drapes over the edge of the platform just so, while the bright yellow redbud leaves strewn around bring out the cat’s magnificent eyes.

…but that’s about it.

C’mon, Humans! There’s not even an un-carved pumpkin in this one.

I’m trying to keep my cool, but it’s getting harder and harder as the hours and minutes tick down to my very special day.

Get it together, Humans.
