Dear Auntie HiC,

Last weekend a cold front has moved through north Georgia. Brrrrr! Our temperatures dropped from the 90s to mid 60s!

This was wake up temperature on Monday, August 4, 2025

I saw this cute sweater & wondered if you could knit it in a jiffy & send it to me ASAP! 😹

❤️ Rocky

PS

 Dear Friends this was not me...

da poor cat in the picture looks miserable, and I’m sure, I Rocky, would be too. 😹 The caption on the picture says: “When you spend the weekend with Grandma!” 😹

Sincerely 

Rocky a very thankful Georgia Ginger!!

Dearest nephew Rocky
 Auntie HiC would move heaven and earth to make sure you were comfy and happy.  However, I am very thankful you don't need a sweater.

Lovingly Auntie HiC

Yes I'm grumpy

Along came AI

My girth is a curse

In the spring of my life

I was the cat's meow

I could prowl jump high and low

Now I could not even carry 

my ladies purse

Happy Tuesday: Fun Facts with Rocky

 

 We thank our Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus   

Dear Auntie HiC, 

This edition of Fun Facts with Rocky delves into the practice of “niksen.” 

Niksen is a Dutch verb derived from "niks," meaning "nothing". 

It's the art of doing nothing, not in a passive or unproductive way, but as a deliberate act of relaxation and mental rejuvenation.

Research suggests that niksen can help reduce stress, combat burnout, and boost creativity. Some studies suggest it can also help improve focus and overall well-being by allowing the mind to wander and recharge. 

The Dutch have purr-fected the practice of 

niksen so well that they are considered 

some of the happiest people on earth.

Cats are niksen masters. 😻

Mol mol mol mol Rocky my ginger nephew you are a fun-gi, girls like fun guys

Thank,you love Auntie HiC
