Remembering Palley Cat

This was my cat over 20 years ago. I loved that cat.
One day he just walked in the door and decided to stay.
Since I couldn't find an owner I decided to keep him.
I had never had a cat before and thought this was a girl cat.
I named (her) Polly...then the vet asked why I named a boy cat "Polly"?
His name changed to "Palley" (short for Pal plus "alley cat").
Palley loved ping pong balls and would come to me whenever I called his name.
I was just thinking of him and will always remember him as the perfect cat.

Today I spent pretty much all of the day and evening resting in bed.
My last couple of weeks were very tiring and I needed to catch up on rest.
What I wanted to do was scotch-guard my car seats, clean the living room, vacuum my rugs, wash my dishes, throw away junk mail, finish my laundry, and then spend the evening with friends. Ha!

Right now I am grateful I could rest today.
I am grateful the mechanic fixed my old car so that I can now sell it.
I am grateful for a good time with a friend last night at dinner.
I am grateful for phone chats with a couple of friends today.
I am grateful for clean sheets on my bed.
