Mona wants a fire.......The weather tonight is forecast for a low of 42 degrees. If it reaches that, it will break the record for the coldest Aug. 30 since 1892, when the mercury hit 45.
Spartans that we are, we will not turn on the heat at this time of year, cat or no cat. A compromise is set; we will build a nice fire for Mona.
That is what we do. Mona approaches immediately, finding her deserted towel on the bathroom radiator does no good. She is now happy, but admonishes me to keep the fire going throughout the cold night. I advise that she must sleep in her usual place, on the bed, at Dee's feet. We will rekindle the fire in the morning..........
Such a fuss.
