Caturday Art

Mom used:
LunaPic, Effect, Photo Spread

Here is the original.  FYI:  I was sleeping soundly on the love seat on top of 
Mom's back pillow and she did not even make me get off her pillow...

I call this the Diva and the Pillow instead of the Princess and the Pea

She caught me....


Every morning after Dad gets out of the shower I like to have a walk about
and Mom didn't know until
I was betrayed by Dad....documentation to follow.









 My shower caper was ruined now for a Quick escape.

FYI:  pardon that squeak at the end

Thoroughly Poetic Pictorial Thursday

Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.



Once again we thank Angel Sammy for selecting a picture
that has inspired us.

Moon Stories
by Madi and Mom 
The year was '69 way before my time.
News of a trip to the moon was all the buzz
Way back then mom was not mom but she was a worker
Department of Mechanical and Aerospace at NC State occupied her time.
She told me all the peeps there were very excited.
Work came to a halt the moon walk was at fault.

**
Fast Foward

The year is now 2014, Blogville was in the midst of matching making theme.
This kitty was ready and willing to join in the fun
I  threw my name in the hat and waited for my man cat
Lo and behold a purrfect match was found and that was that.
His name was Raz and OMC he was full of charm.
This lady cat quickly grabbed his arm.
Our third date was out of this world.
 A trip to the Space Station was what he proposed.  
I was alarmed but he said no worries you will come to no harm.
Raz bought us matching Space Suits and we were so cute.
Off to the Space Station we went.
My head was spinning  when I saw the stars
I sang like a loon at the man in the moon 
Filled we glee we were free to float with ease just 
Raz and Me
Sincerely Space Cadet Madi

I fell in love with this dress and now I want it.  LOL



Remember this is a blog hop and you must click here to see all the 

Postcards from Paris
Jakey I heard from everybuddy what a great art teacher you are and how much fun they had in your postcard class!!

Here is a sneak peep of mine and Raz's

Mom here:  In April 1968 I took a 3 week trip to Europe
I spent 2 days in Paris. 
My mom wast deathly afraid of heights.  When I was 12 my parents and I  went to the top of the Empire State Building.  It had a 10' fence with barbed wire at the top.   My mom held onto my shirt so tight she nearly choked me.  I kept telling her I wasn't going to jump.  I was not afraid of heights at ages 12 or 19 but I am now.  Must have gotten that from her.   If I had written a post card to my parents (especially my mom),  I this is what I would have said.  
I found my photos of Paris yesterday (2/13/18).
 Madi is saying it instead. Yep I climbed all the way to the top  as the sun was rising.


HAPPY 48TH ANNIVERSARY TO MY 
MOM AND DAD...

Before we leave for Paris...

We leave on the red eye tonight.  I hope you are resting up and your bags are packed along with a big dose of confidence.....


Fifi our Mistress of Ceremonies has afew tips on a successful runway experience.


Remember

Runway do's and don'ts


Fifi said to be sure to Have Fun 

Rosy and I did our best imitations of the lovely Audrey Hepburn



Always step toe, heel if you are feeling really confident you can
spin on the ball of your foot, kinda like to a stepping on a cigarette


If you are wearing stilts, remember rule # 7 be confident


Ladies once you reach the end of the runway no stopping but 
sharp quick turns.  These are tricky so study the diagram


Guys when you reach the end of the runway you need to do some turns to 
but they can be manly if you study these photos




and the same can be said for you guyz...what is impawant whether casual or formal wear is the man wearing it.

Once it is all over grab a pillow and take a cat nap.


Sincerely Fifi the French Poodle
