Pink Saturday

 



 These words are so welcome to me anyway. Opinions change nothing but actions do.


Colorado is unsure if Spring will ever arrive. This was Friday, April 17, 2021.

Thankful Thursday


 My boy Boots. He was the best feline friend you could ever have. He was like a person to me although I have often thought he was simply an angel in disguise. He will always be my most Thankful Thursday and every other day of the week Thankful.

Happy Tuesday

 

Could she be any happier? This was taken  13 days ago when the weather was warm. We have falle into a cold spell. Our heat was out. Uh-Oh! My favorite people at Brothers Heating and Plumbing came right over and took care of us. They are professional, friendly, reliable and reasonable. You can not be happier with that outfit. They are excellent with their customer service and their plumbers and electricians. We had the Nest installed by the solar people. It is an ongoing drama. I do not do drama. Anyway someone pulled a wire, the one that controls the heat. So thankful for Austin today and his helpfulness. Stop by Happy Tuesday and say hello.


Do you think Maxine is not friendly to her neighbors? She is ornery.

Hoping everyone has a great day and wonderful week. See you again, God willing.

Aw....Mondays and Love is...

 


Rebekah took Leo on a jaunt yesterday morning. We followed in the Jeep. Leo is very good unless he sees another dog, cat or squirrel/rabbit. Then he wants to run after them. He did well. Hannah says she had a headpiece for him which gives you more control since he is a very large boy. He was so  calm all day. We have a HUGE backyard. So he runs all day long. But seeing and smelling everything in your path is much more exciting for them! Rebekah has been his caregiver since Hannah moved to Western NY in 2019. Since they live on acreage, Hannah was afraid he'd get away and could get hit if he ran up the road or deep into their property. So he is here caregiver to the puppies. He is an excellent role model. This was Christmas 2020. Please visit Aw...Mondays


I hope everyone has a beautiful Monday!

Feline Friday, Friendly Fill- In's and Pink Saturday

 Feline Friday 


The day I brought Mister Kitty home, he cried all the way home in the carrier. As he grew older he would stick his paw out of the carrier as if he were a prisoner going to his final destination. For a boy kitty he is terribly dramatic! He recently decided he would hog the bed. We have a battle of wits until one of us falls into a deep sleep. But I never really owned him. He was a gift. It cost more to set up his new carrier, bed, food and vet visit . But I never regretted it. As ornery as he can be he is still a gift. 


The battle will begin shortly. He is being obnoxious. He hates the flash of the camera. But he hates the bright lights worse.  Who is gonna win the battle?

Ellen and Lorianne co host this fun blog hop. They each choose of the two questions. Thank you ladies.

1. I don't like to ___________but I have to.

Shea Shea is pretty in pink. Even with all the teething misery. She can crack you up. She can "mean mug " you with the best of them . We have a very complex relationship. She knows I have more experience. I watched her brothers so nothing gets past this old  pro grandmother.She doesn't like it sometime and she will Mean Mug me. HaHaHa! The girl has sass and moxie.


THANKFUL THURSDAY

My thankfuls:
