Ruby our Camellia was decked out with
300 mini multicolored lights during December
Shortly after the lights were off
She started her own decorations seen on the photo on the right

Now she is nearly covered in gorgeous ruby red flowers.

Dearest Auntie HiC

Mom said you had your eyes dilated on Wednesday. I wasn’t sure what that meant, so she dilated my eyes!
Not funny! 😹


Lovingly your Nephew 
❤️ Kat


Dearest Nephew OMCs look at those peepers.
Jumpin’ catfish.  I loved how you were licking your lips and turning your head during music.  You are one hip Cat Daddo!
Loving your devoted Auntie HiC

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #101

 Today is Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy 

at Two Spoiled Cats


Here is today's inspiration


I can roller skate
forwards, backwards, in a line,
in a circle or holding hands.
If I concentrate,
I can do a figure eight.

Once I tried ice skating.
It required balance and nerves of steel
I quickly learned I was not made
to skate on a 
BLADE

I will be MIA for a while today.  My Photo Journalist, Janice and I
are meeting to celebrate our Birthdays.  Her is January 15.
Yep the celebrations continue

Happy Tuesday: Niagara Falls Faucet

 

Thank you to our 

 Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus 



picture #1

The little thingamagiggy that controls the water flow  on  the kitchen faucet had a blow out...   

picture #2 

is the mini Niagara Falls.  If I happened to have my hands or a dish under it, I was immediately drenched along with the counters and the windows over the sink. Once or twice the force of the water actually knocked things out of my hands. I put tape on the faucet handle to remind me.  

picture #3, 

Prior to blow out the faucet always came on softly 
The white arrow on top points to water flow buttons
 The faucet is a Grohe.  It was originally installed in 2006 and has a lifetime warranty HAPPY HAPPY dance. 

Picture #4
The replacement faucet came last week.  The  Grohe rep told me we could 'probably' install it ourselves.  However, upon examination of the old one and the new one, we decided we   'probably' needed a special tool.  The old one was really tight.  What if we 'probably' could not get the new one on?! We'd have a big mess.  We decided it would be 'probably'  best to call a plumber. Happy to say on Wednesday January 4 we had it professionally installed.  Some things are worth paying for, after all the faucet was free.

Dearest Auntie HiC

Mom is finally feeling well again!
She & Dad had Covid during  the holidays, but I’m happy to report they have both tested NEGATIVE!


I convinced her we BOTH needed some fresh air & sunshine. It was definitely good for both of us.

Video volume up Mom picked perfect music

Serene Sunday

 

 Taken at Wooten Meadow Park New Year's Day 2023

Thank you all for your birthday wishes.  I had a very nice day
lunch at Seaboard Cafe.  First one of the year.
I was tickled to see chicken noodle soup and pumpkin muffins on the menu.
Rick the owner gave me a chocolate chip cookie for my birthday and free beverages.
