No Hopping Today

Hi, I am going to be taking a few days off from blogging. My Mom’s significant other, of 38 years, passed away last night. He was supposed to have heart surgery on Tuesday, but something went wrong, possibly an infection. I was blessed to have had a wonderful father who passed away in 2001 as well as Jerry, who was also a kind man who would do anything for me. He even dressed as Santa for the cats before David started doing it.

I am a little OCD so I feel the need to post my Z creation for The A-Z Blogging Hop. It is Zero, the Ghost Dog from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I am impressed that some of you guessed.

I will have a giveaway for all the items later in the week. I apologize if I don’t get a chance to visit your blogs for a few days.

Yellow Submarine

Posted on April 27, 2018 by pilch92

Hi everyone! We are joining Athena’s Caturday Art Blog Hop and Rascal and Rocco’s Pet Parade. Today is also Y day for The A-Z Blogging Challenge.

I used lunapic cartoon effect on a photo of KaTwo posing with the crocheted yellow submarine. I like how it makes the submarine stand out. Monday is the last day of the challenge and after that, I will be having a giveaway of all the crocheted items.

I did not get a chance to bring Trouble to get spayed this week, but she will go Tuesday and I will have her FELV/FIV tested. Hopefully, after she heals she can fit right in. She is a sweetie, it is Sammy I worry about causing a problem, but I am hoping he will be more accepting of a female than he has been with Brody. Although, for the most part, he coexists with Brody.

Thankful Thursday

Posted on April 25, 2018 by pilch92

Hi everyone! We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

We are also joining Sammy ’s Poetry Day. Here is my poem to go with this photo:

Look! A tiny door.
I wonder if it is a little store?
Maybe some forest fairies live there.
It is certainly not the home of a bear.
A place for garden gnomes to gather together
to hide in all kinds of bad weather?
I was wrong, it is the home of elves
they had lots of cookies on their shelves.

Notice I wrote HAD lots of cookies 🙂

A worm

Mom had to make another one because Sammy claimed this one for himself and she would never tell her little Cat Scout that he can’t have something he wants.

And here are the Friendly Fill-ins for Friday. Mom came up with the first two and Annie of McGuffy’s Reader came up with the second two.

1. I could really use ____________________.

2. ________________________ is a charity that I like to support.

Ten Things of Thankful

Posted on April 23, 2018 by pilch92

Hi everyone! I am late this week with my Ten Things of Thankful, but better late than never.

Also, you need to use your imagination on my A-Z creation. It is a sea Urchin.

Here are my thankfuls-

Cold medicine- daytime so I don’t sleep all day.
Cold medicine -nightly so I can sleep.
Joanie, my very own nurse.
We had to move our enormous entertainment center after 25 years to fix and electrical outlet- thankful for a strong neighbor and his son that moved it for us.
I found 3 cds and a dvd behind it, they were from 2006.Odd thing is, I never knew they were missing.
Also moved a bookcase and found a cool canvas with taxis and a framed photo that I had forgotten about.
A great electrician that is retired, but still came over to help with our electrical issue.
Thankful I am in a position to help a kitty in need ( Trouble).
Warmer weather, but not too warm.
Lots of library books to read, they seem to have all come in at once.

We are also joining Comedy Plus’ new Tuesday Fun blog hop.

Silvervine Toast

Posted on April 22, 2018 by pilch92

Hi everyone! We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww…Mondays, McGuffy’s Reader’s Sparks and Mewsic Moves Me ( hosted by Curious as a Cathy, Xmas Dolly, JAmerican Spice and Stacy Uncorked.)

The theme for Mewsic Moves Me is Earth. My first choice is also my spark.

1. Vince Gill- Let There Be Peace on Earth

2. Earth Song-John Denver

3. Earth Angel ( played in the film, Back to The Future)- not about the earth, but has the word in it.

And for the A-Z Blogging Challenge, we are already at the letter T. I made a slice of toast, but there was no place to stuff it with nip so I rubbed silvervine on it , like cinnamon toast 🙂

Joanie broke the modeling rule and started playing with it.

I am skipping the reading hop today because I haven’t had much time to read lately.

Nurse Joanie

Posted on April 20, 2018 by pilch92

Hi everyone! Nurse Joanie here, Mom is sick, just a cold, but she is a big baby. I iz taking care of here.

Here is her A-Z Blogging Challenge creation, a golden Snitch from Harry Potter. Good job Lone Star Cats and Cuddlywumps Chronicles -you both guessed it.

I am a work of art so I am joining Athena’s Caturday Art Blog Hop. Mom will do her Thankfuls another day.

Hi everyone! Time for the Friendly Fill-Ins. Be sure to leave your link at McGuffy’s Reader. You can also answer in the comment section. Thank you to all who participate.

1. New ____________ are _________________.

2. I love to ______________ on the ________________.

3. When I was a child, I loved to play .

4. One , I .

My answers:

1. New slippers are the best. I wear out slippers quickly and was deciding when to break out a new pair. Joanie helped me with that by yacking in the old ones.

2. I love to read on the bed in the spare bedroom with KaTwo.

3. When I was a child, I loved to play with stuffed animals. I never liked dolls, I would hide them in the pantry or give them to the dog. Maybe my mother should have had me tested like Sheldon 🙂

4. One day, I hope to find a publisher for a picture book I wrote, actually I have two written.
