Living with Loulou
A French kitty comments on just about everything.
Twosday
It’s really fun floating aroud! Well, Twosday should actually read Gazillionday because I was first thinking about mama and papa, who are TWO, and then I started thinking about all of you who are such good friends, and that I wish to keep in touch, even from this mercurial state, whatever that is, and then I started thinking about how all of us are eventually in two states, whether we choose it or not, haha,...

WOW, LOTS OF ACTION AROUND THESE PARTS! Well, today we have this to say: You just never know when an adventure will surprise you! ADVENTURE AT Les Hauts de Collioure: Mama and papa were visiting an elderly friend as they do on Saturdays and she had all of her doors and windows open to part of her house because a little black bird had flown in and was soaring and dipping all over the house...

Captured in oils, my selfie at least is smiling. And here’s a fun read for your Sunday pre-nap! Let’s hear it loud and strong for us kitties! WE ROCK! Have a kitty-filled Sunday, dear friends. I’m busy reading this Guardian article for the third time….then a little shut-eye in the garden under the lemon tree. ...

My fave position, duh… Well, it’s obvious that I can’t fill these in, so you know who is doing it: 1. The last thing I cooked was __shrimp curry and chapatis. 2. When I go out to eat, my usual order is __anything new and different. Now I’ll take over: 3. I feel most comfortable when __on my back getting a tummy rub. Mama’s back. I don’t purchase anything, haha. It’s all free! 4. I...
read moreTeacher Thanks!
Let’s hear it for TEACHERS! Well, this is a lovely, uplifting story. This dedicated woman is the kind of teacher all kids should have. Thanks go to teachers everywhere who take part in their students’ lives to the extent that the student comes away with a true sense of ethics and how to live in this complicated world. Sometimes I think it is especially difficult for young anthros who are growing up with the...
read moreWow Wednesday
WOW! SO many of you saw the eclipse! Merci for all of the very good reports on your experiences. Maybe we’ll get to Spain in 2026 for the next one as it’s just 20 minutes from where we live to the border. (PS: That feather I am clutching was dropped in MY garden and I can’t figure out just what birdie gave me such a gift, haha.) (PSS: If you wonder why there are backgrounds...
read moreTickle Tuesday
Are there any? Donc, are there just some things in life that tickle you pink? Mama is really ticklish on her tootsies, but I’m talking about just being really surprised and amazed and delighted about something that you think about all day and say to yourself, WOW, was that wonderful, who knew? I think this eclipse generated news about those who had seen a few and mama just loved that a 105-year-old man had...

THINGS ARE: LOOKING UP! Well, here’s a thought. Especially important this week. LOOK UP! Mama has noticed that sightseeers in Rome or just about anywhere tend to look straight ahead or down (at what they might be stepping on, as cobblestones can throw one a curve, whatever that is, and of course there might be doggie poo) or at their cell phones (!) and if they looked UP more often, they would find surprising marvels...
read moreSun Spots
Or rather, NO-sun spots, haha. Are you in the path of the eclipse or out of it? Might it get a bit darker in your town or city and could we PLEASE hear about what it was like? We are so sorry this magical event is not in France! I know that sometimes you are not able to get the link from the Washington Post, but this scientist has wonderful info about an eclipse, so...
read moreHas Beans
A little Lunapic montage of some of the places I have…er…watered, which is why we have THIS: But mama’s garden guru neighbor was showing her his broad bean crop that he planted in October (the best month to plant them) and mama was lamenting that she had only the little flowers because she planted in November, a bit late, and then she went out to see if our high, high winds had blown all...
