Sadly precious Elvira who was adopted/rescued/rehomed by Miss Ellen of 15&Meowing, when her dad passed away, had to leave to rejoin her Dad Kiril...Her sisfur Friday and all who knew her will miss her so much!

| Elvira |
Well, we may not feel happy due to the nature of this post, but we are sure Elvira is happy to be free of her worldly ailments, pain and is now happy to be with her Dad Kiril.

| Happy Tuesday Blog Hop is HERE. |
Well, once again it's time for Sunday Selfies!
We've had nice weather most of the past week, and it got quite warm here on Saturday...and even warmer coming...with the not so nice humidity. UGH! Which means thunderstorms might visit us over the next few days, too...oh well, at least they bring the water to the plants!
Petcretary planted three redbud trees, so that when they mature they will bring some nice open shade to our patio. There is a fourth one still to be planted, she's not sure where to put it, LOL!
 |
| A while back we showed you this alien looking bud on the dogwood tree: |
Well the warmer weather has encouraged it and all the others to morph into something far prettier!
 |
| A few days ago... |
 |
| Now the tree is in its full bloom |
 |
| It's not a very big tree, and its in front of the cherry tree, which makes it have an odd shape...but its still pretty each spring. |
 |
| From 'alien' weird to veery pretty blossoms! |
 |
| Benji, all stretched out. |
 |
| Dalton staring... |

| She got this Badge as a reward for trying to stump everyone, but actually someone did guess it! |
 |
| We have joined up with the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop at The Cat On my Head! Thanks, Kitties Blue, for hosting! |
We played a lot of bitey-face games in the past few days...they don't make the best images due to all the motion, but they are fun to capture anyways.
But first we also had some quieter selfies to show you...
 |
| Hi, Petcretary! You caught my grin!! |
 |
| It sure was windy the other day! |
 |
| These Muscari are growing wild in the woodsy area in the back of our property! So pretty to see them each spring. They've been marked so that when *she* mows back there for weed control she doesn't cut them down.(Sorry I can't enlarge this, blogger is giving me grief...) Does anyone know what this mushroom is?? There are three of them not too far from where the mucari are.  |
 |
| Bitey-face games sure look violent! |
 |
| Hi, Petcretary...I know I'm pestering Benji...but I want to play more bitey-face! |

Sunday, April 14, 2024More Spring Things; Flower, Tree and Sun Selfies!What a week!! Solar eclipse, spring bursting forth, and terrible winds! At least we didn't lose our power here, but a large part of our city was without power...yesterday, with wind gusts to 50 mph...and still was that way Saturday afternoon. They got it back on late Saturday...at least it wasn't too cold or hot.
We were able to see the eclipse last Monday, we had those special glasses. It was clear so we had good viewing. We didn't have totality here, but a good portion was obscured. Petcretary put the glasses over her camera lens and got a few not too bad images...(she just used her phone...)  
Saturday, April 13, 2024Angelic BeautiesOnce again we have Angels to grieve over in Blogville... Lightning went to join his doggy family members who went before...
And Gemini also flew away to join her family who were waiting to greet her at the RB.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A while back, Mariette, sent me a couple of images and asked me to 'make them better'. Well, I played with them for quite a while and eventually had them looking much improved. But the background was distracting, so I took that away, and sent the fixed images back to her. Then because I wanted to enhance them some more I put them into 'frames'. She was surprised to receive them, and happy, too. It was my pleasure to do this art for her...anyways here are the pictures in the frames that I made for her. The older ladies are her Mother in law, her Paternal Grandmother and her Mother. Such a precious memory to have.
And Mariette continues the tradition of singing in the Choir of her church, as did those special ladies in her life. Mariette knows that they are singing as angels do while she sings in an earthly choir to mingle their voices all to the praise and worship of the Lord. You can visit Mariette's Blog, by clicking on this link. These pictures are all artworks, esp the two that I made for Mariette, so I am joining with the Caturday art Blog hop.
Sunday, April 7, 2024Sweet Guest Kitty!Today we will show you a kitty that came to visit some of the residents where Petcretary works. But first some other stuff... Spring might be taking its time, but it is showing signs of things to come!
  Phew, at least it was short lived....we all hope! Earlier this past week, we had an intruder here...he had a noisy machine too. And he stomped around in the kitchen and in the cellar, too. There was a flood in the cellar when we let the water out of the sink after doing the dishes, etc. Well after a couple of passes with that noisy drain sink of his, he pulled out the blockage...it was a bird!! Yikes, that poor bird!! Apparently it fell into the vent pipe outside....so now there is a cover to still let the air out, but nothing cam fall in anymore. OK. here is Katie, our pretty calico guest!
