Happy Tuesday Take 2 and reminder FFF

 For you early birds yesterday, I send apologies for 2 posts in one day.

I had to copy the Tuesday post into a new one.  I tried to change the date to post tomorrow so I would not lose comments but blogger would not let me.  

If your world was rumbling yesterday, it was probably Angel Madi grumbling.  She would have issued lots and lots of demerits for that blunder.  


Thank you to our

On November 23, 2024 at 5:12  pm we had the most incredible sunset show.

This is how it started...the sunset was even in the Eastern skies  snapped from our drive way facing EAST.  The entire neighborhood had a pink hue. Even reflecting in our car windows.


Still facing EAST


Our house faces North as I continued snapping this is now the snap approximately

Northwesterly


This snap is 100% West


This breathtaking sunset put on a show for about 12 minutes...til the clouds moved in.

Reminder Friday November 29th join YAM for FFF
It is fun.

Awww Monday with my nephews

 We thank our Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus   


Dearest Auntie HiC

As you know, I, Rocky, had to go to the vet recently! πŸ™€

I have been itching, scratching & chewing on myself to the point where I’ve created hotspots. 😿
Dr. Renee gave me a steroid (Depo-Medrol) shot & said I’ll be feeling much better real soon.
Mom tried to get a picture of the hotspots but I was not cooperative! 😹

I’ve been giving Mom the “stink eye” all afternoon! 😼

Kat could smell the vet on me when I got home, and has been providing comfort❣️


I didn’t tell Kat I heard Dad make an appointment for him to have his annual exam, vaccines, & glucose check. No need to make him worry until necessary, & I’ll be there for him after his appointment. 😻
Lovingly your nephew,
❤️ Rocky

********************
ROCKY this crazy up and down weather and changes in heat and ac inside.  It can give us the itches too.
THANK GOODNESS DR Renee was there and all your adoring  vet techs.
I bet you will feel  better very soon.
I agree no need worrying Kat.  
I love how caring he is in spite of vettie odors.  I know you will give him the same loving attention when he comes home.
Loving and healing hugs 
Your Auntie HiC πŸ₯°πŸ«ΆπŸ»‼️

Nature facts from NC and a few photos.

A Fall 2024 Word Search

Today's Nature from NC

NC's official State Frog
In 2013, NC designated the Pine Barrens Tree Frog a bright green but seldom seen species.  It mainly lies in the pine forests of Coastal Plains and the Sandhills and is considered one of the most beautiful frogs in the Southeast.


Appearance description from Google.

The Pine Barrens treefrog is a small frog that has toepads to help it climb trees. This species can reach a length of up to 1.5 inches (3.8 centimeters) (Florida Natural Areas Inventory 2001). Pine Barrens treefrogs have a pea-colored body that changes to a dark olive-green color when they are under certain conditions of stress and weather (Means 1992). They also have a brown band that reaches from their nostrils to their legs, a white belly and yellow spots throughout the body (Florida Natural Areas Inventory 2001).

Just for you....yes YOU!!!

Kit and David thank you all very much for the 30th anniversary wishes yesterday.

Here are the Friendly Fill-Ins for tomorrow. Ellen from 15andmeowing came up with the first two and my wonderful co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with second two. 

1. I can’t wait to have TURKEY and dressing (that is what we call  stuffing here in Dixie) and Pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving.
2. Our Christmas tree goes up the weekend after Thanksgiving. We already have the  lights on our Camellia by the sidewalk. We did that early because of rain and very chilly weather .  All we have to do is plug them in to outlet.
     3. I’d like to create and APP for stringing Christmas lights so that when         you put up the last string you have the prong end for plugging into             receptacle.  Every so often we end up with the flat end and OMCs we         have to do it again. 
    
     4. I prefer to shop EARLY when buying my weekly groceries.
