Garden work starts now in earnest and postings will be less frequent. I ask everybody who sometimes has found some of the blog posts useful to subscribe to the blog in order not to miss one of the future rare postings.

The reality of the computer or TV screen is different from the reality in the garden and in the forest. The reality of the blogosphere is different too.

The reality of the internet is interesting and sometimes intellectual challenging but I don’t enjoy it in the same way as the reality of the forest, the garden, and my dear cat family.

At the moment I don’t enjoy the internet world at all and I also fear that I could fall into the trap of a popularity competition, posting mediocre stuff or reposting other peoples text just to keep statistics high.

I’m tired of sitting for hours on the computer. I’m glad when one of my feline friends jumps onto the keyboard and writes her/his own text:

‘’’’’’’’’’’;;;;;;.,/.lllllllllllmmmmmmmmmmmmnhgggg

For all these reasons I’ll take a break which could be short or long. We will see.

Greetings from the cats
