Sparks and Awww Monday with Kat and Pup

This is a rather long BUT inspirational plaque
 I saw hanging in the lobby at Hampton Inn, Marion, NC. There was no
author listed.

Just saw a comment from 
Chris Blackwood  thank you for the information on the quote.
It is actually a quote from Francis Scott Fitzgerald. Very good advice for life.


My Feline and K9 Nephews sent me and adorable email with photos


Dearest Aunty HiC

As you well know, it’s finally Mom’s favorite time of year. College football is BACK!
This is our first football season here in The Hill, but we’ve been informed we’re Alabama Crimson Tide fans. 





💕🐘💕
Are there any other football fans out there? Who’s your favorite team?
Roll Tide!

❤️  Kat and Pup You Feline and Canine Nephews



Now to answer your question!!

I am 100,000% an NC State University Fan and have been since I was a wee girl. 



  I expect sometime during the college pawball season
The Tide and The Wolfpack will meet on the gridiron.
We'll have to agree that the best team win!!
It is all in fun RIGHT?
Maybe that is why I love red so much.
As you can see from the photo I even have a RED ROOM in my house
Lovingly your Aunty HiC

  1. A wonderful poem, great advice. We're not into football, though there is a Longhorns shirt in the closet from a TX visit.

  4. Bertie is shocked to learn that some pets don't get to choose their own football team.

  5. Those last five lines of the poem just hit. I will have to think seriously about those for a while.

  6. Love the Fall header by the way - lookin' Fallish! That's a wonderful SPARK - it's never a "bad" time to start over. Football? Well I used to be a HUGE Pro football fan and was very loyal to the Washington Redskins BUTTTTT they have struggled the last several years and I'm afraid my dedication to watching their games has waned. Oh well.....some weekends were made for something OTHER than being glued to the TV!

    Hugs, Pam

  15. That is a great poem. We are WVU and Buffalo Bills fans in this house. In case you weren't aware NC State will be at WVU this Saturday. Sadly we don't have high hopes for WVU as they have a new coach so it will be a "building" year.

  16. "We don't own life; we only rent it!" I read that in a book recently, and it says the same thing...do what you need to, to be the person that you want to be.

  17. What a wonderful quote! You know we are big Texas Longhorn fans here, but MR. Wuf is almost adorable enough to make me think about switching...almost!

  19. That poem is a very good Spark.
    I am not a fan of football, American or English, but Kat and Pup look cute in their bandanas.

  20. Pawesome Spark today - great one for everyone to ponder.

    Kat, Mom is not a football person at all. Dad loves it. But we all agree that we have to root for our KC Chiefs and our quarterback Mahomes!!!

  23. It's a great quote. I wish I had the courage to follow it.

    Being a native Tallahassee peep, I was born into the Noles' era of the great Bobby B. I don't follow the games though.

  24. That is a very wonderful quote.
    Thank you so much for your kind words on Caster's memorial post. And for including him on the POTP blog. We miss our sweet boy so, so much, but having the support and love of the cat-blogging community has been a huge comfort. So thank you for reaching out. I know you're approaching the 1 year anniversary of Madi's passing. I hope you are able to reminisce about all the wonderful memories you shared with her. Sending love.

  26. Oh, that is a FABulous quote! Everyone should read that at least once a week! As for the Footieball, Ma is a huuuuge 49ers fan, and she has high hopes for this season (paws crossed! nothin' than a sad Ma after a loss....), as for college, wells, we do back the local colleges ~ Stanford, Berkeley, SJ State, butts all the games to choose from gives Ma a headache! BOL!!
    Kisses,
    Ruby ♥
