Good morning Sunshine, It’s Friday!

Posted on September 4, 2020
#FelineFridays

This is my first Friday back after my very long semi blogging hiatus.  I really wasn’t all that absent in Blogosphere, I was just otherwise detained composing future posts. Although I was super busy doing bloggy things I found time to make the best use of my time in near isolation. The best thing about the pandemic is having DH around the house finally giving me someone new to talk to each day. 🙂 Alrighty, it’s time for your weekly dose of laughter, nature’s best medicine. It might be better than chicken soup.

#FriendshipFriday

Ellen at 15andMeowing and Lorraine at Four-Legged Furballs share each Thursday four blank statements for us to copy and paste to create an entry for their Friday Friendly Fill-ins. Rounding things out this is how I filled in the blanks.

 
1. To eat something naughty or not to not eat? is a question I ask myself (frequently). No wonder it’s hard to loose those extra pounds. 🙁
 
2. I wish I had a million dollars, if I did I would build the house of my dreams, help my parents & children, and then take a tour around the country seeing all of the places on our list of US destinations. Come on Mega Power Ball jackpot! No, we didn’t buy a lottery ticket. It’s been quite sometime since we’ve done that. I think we have a better chance of a long last relative leaving us a fortune than playing the lottery.
 
3. I’m on the fence about what to do after we get our new car repaired – do we keep it or try to sell it? It’s a tough decision. We’ll wait to see what we think after the work is done. I’m confident the body shop will make it look pretty but will the compartment be as quiet as it was when it was new? That’s important to us.
 
4. If you don’t try, you won’t ever know that you can’t do but will always wondered if you could. Life is too short for regrets.  This is the reason why I self-published my children’s story and finally pushing myself to get back in to art. I’ll never regret doing these things ever.

#SkywatchFriday Originally photographed in 2012 using my Big Girl Camera, Nikon D7000. This is one of my first digital captures using my DSLR camera. I altered the exposure and saturation using Pixelmator Pro.

If you like this photo then you may want to visit/revisit two posts from past SWF: Sunset over Fort Loudon & Painted Sky. 😉

Although I’m not in Blogosphere on the weekends, my Songsational Sundays edition is scheduled and if you’re blog hopping then I hope you’ll stop in for beautiful lyrics of hope and love.  Have a funtastic Friday, dear friends! X💋X💋, Cathy

Afternoon Sunshine SWF + CTST Vol. 6

January brought a mix of gray and blue skies but it seemed the gloom hung around more than I cared for so when the Mr. Blue Sky showed up the last full week of the month then I had to get outside for a quick snap and to enjoy the…

Skywatch Friday Painted Sky

This week has been gorgeous, kittens and dawgs! In fact, it's been so NICE that I found myself outdoors a lot and once again I neglected my responsibilities in Blogosphere. Shame on Cathy! You're the best and I know you can't fault me for taking advantage of soaking up a…

      Mimi,

      It sounds like de Lord gave ole Boudreaux some good advice. Maybe after COVID settles down we can play the lottery on occasion. Who knows, perhaps the Lord will show us good favor! 🙂

    Thank you for the kind words you left on my blog for the loss of Polar Bear.
    I never buy lottery tickets, my mom does sometimes and I figure she would share. Thanks for participating in the fill-ins, great answers. I missed your doing them this summer. Have a nice weekend! XO

      Kathe,

      I think the kitty just tumbled out of her tree house without taking a quick look in the mirror before she started her day and then some human captured her picture. How insensitive is that? I look like that ever morning but even in the darkness of my room I at the very least run my fingers through my short locks to detangle and smooth out the weirdness. 🙂

    What a fun post! Thank you for joining in on the Friendly Fill-Ins! I love food, and so I relate to your #1 so much. And your answer to #4 is so true and inspiring. Life really is too short to not try, to not reach for your dreams. I love that you self-published your children’s story. I’m writing some books and plan to start self-publishing them in the not too distant future. Have a wonderful weekend!

      Lorraine,

      Best of luck with self-publishing your stories. I think if I could ever get motivated to do it again I might have better success with the marketing thing then I did a decade ago but I’d rather play. 🙂

      Brian,

      Unfortunately, you gotta play the lottery to win. I marvels the mind how someone plays for the first time and hits it really big. Luck doesn’t seem to shine my way. Oh well…I can’t throw good hard money after a dream with the odds stacked against ya. Thanks for visiting!

    Love the funnies as always. I also love your photography. What a great shot.

    Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.

    Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend, Cathy. Love and hugs. ♥

    The photo brought me here (very nice!) but I stayed for the video. The Holderess Family has done some great lockdown parodies; my favorite of this was the Livin’ on a Prayer.

    Hi, Cathy!

    I am here for your Sillies, dear friend, and what a pleasure it was to be greeted by a vintage pinup girl In Living Color! That one dates all the way back to the 1930s, I believe.

    That dog training cartoon reminds me of the time Mrs. Shady and I sent our Toto to obedience school. She flunked. 🙂 She never learned to resist yanking on the leash and trying to get to other animals, especially cats. I read your Fill-ins with interest. Recently Mrs. S asked me to quit wasting money buying Powerball tickets. Wouldn’t you know it, a few weeks after I stopped playing, the number combination I had used for years matched 4 of the numbers in the drawing. I would have won $100! I wasn’t happy about that. 🙂 I’m glad you pushed yourself to get back into art. Since making that decision, you have produced many wonderful sketches and color illustrations. They are a joy to behold, Cathy. You’ve got talent!

    That snoozing panda reminds me of the stray kitty that now lives on our lanai. He has access to soft upholstered porch furniture, and yet he chooses to curl up and sleep on concrete and metal surfaces, often in an awkward position that looks uncomfortable.

    Wow, that parody rock song medley was terrific! The wife played Tawny K. to perfection, and the lyrics to all the rock anthems are funny. Thanks for sharing! I’m going to send that video to Mrs. Shady and her son. The enhanced picture of the sunset with painted sky at Fort Loudon is a dreamy, romantic composition. Well done!

    Thank you very much for the smiles and laughs to start off the weekend. i wish you and DH a safe and happy one, dear friend Cathy!

      Tom,

      Tell me Mrs. Shady, “I could’ve paid for the lottery ticket and gotten take-out with that $100 win!” I’m sure she’d tell you to go for it next time. lol The best we ever came is two numbers, maybe three picked. I’m glad you enjoyed The Holderness family parody. They usually put together some good stuff. Thanks for stopping in for some a.m. giggles. Enjoy your day, dear friend!
