Hi everyone. Time for the fill-ins. I came up with the first two sentences and my wonderful co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with the second two. If you didn’t do a post for them, you can also answer in the comment section. Thank you to all who participate. Don’t forget to add your link to the hop so everyone can visit you. The link is open until Wednesday night.
1. My zodiac sign is __________________.
2. My Chinese zodiac animal sign is _____________________.
3. For me, _________ brings back memories of _________.
4. _________ is the only thing keeping me from _________.
My answers:
1. My zodiac sign is Leo
2. My Chinese zodiac animal sign is the rooster.
3. For me, being with The Boy brings back memories of when his mom was little. He looks a lot like her and has so many of the same expressions.
4. Spending time with the kids is the only thing keeping me from getting depressed. Cleaning out my hubby’s sister’s house is really draining physically and emotionally.
We are joining Feline Friday now hosted by Messymimi
My flashback is from February 2020, Angel Drake was sporting his beads on Fat Tuesday.

My Chinese zodiac sign is Rabbit, but I prefer the Vietnam version where it is cat. I am a Leo too. Lovely flashback of Angel Drake.
I didn’t know there was a Vietnamese version. Cool that you are a Leo too.XO
We hope that house clearing project is over soon for both you and David – it’s just so much work isn’t it. Good job on filling in the blanks. As always we’ve enjoyed doing them and linking up with you BUT still not sure our comments show – we come back to check and they’re not there! Happy Friday….
Hugs, Pam (and Teddy)
Thank you. Your comments always come through, but you may not see them right away. XO
I hope the house cleaning project will be over soon so you and your hubby can get some rest. That is a sweet pic of Angel Drake sporting his beads on Fat Tuesday.

For me music brings back fond memories
Blogging is the only thing keeping me from feeling irrelevant
I hope so too. Thank you for these great answers. I am a rooster too. 🙂 I know what you mean on #4. XO
I can see why you are a cat lover, you are a LEO, the lion sign!
Love the black cat card and they spelled perfect purrfectly! Thanks.
Thank you. Glad the card finally arrived. XO
I remember Angel Drake very well. I love seeing him showing off his beads. I loved his name too. For some reason that is my fave name. If I had a boy cat if I didn’t;t name him after a Roman Emperor, it would be Drake.
I SO enjoy the fill-ins. Those are one of– if not THE favorite Hops in the CB.
Thank you for remembering him. xO
Like Pam, we hope the house project is over soon and we’re never sure our comments show either. Great fill-ins.
Thank you. They always come through. 🙂
You’re blessed to have the kids to help keep you young physically and mentally.
Yes, I am. XO
Sweet Angel Drake being so festive ~ Great fill-ins ~ Hope you finished soon with clearing out the house ~ never easy ~ Wishing you a good weekend with some fun ~ hugs,

Thank you. XO
I’m so sorry you have to clean out the house. I did my mother’s after she passed. It was really depressing and hard to do.
Thank you. You understand how hard it is. XO
Charlee: “Our Dada is also a Leo!”
Chaplin: “No wonder both of you like cats so much.”
Oona: “Angel Drake was a very handsome ninja. Oona assumes he obtained his bling on a raid, and she approves!”
That is cool that he is a Leo too. 🙂 Sure, whatever you say Oona.
1. My zodiac sign is Virgo.
2. My Chinese zodiac animal sign is rabbit.
3. For me, my youth brings back memories of unhappiness.

Dare I say Angel Drake was quite the party animal? 😻
Yes, but not as much as Rusty. 🙂 XO
Drake was blessed to live in your home. ~nods~ I pray that your efforts cleaning out the house end soon. ~hugs~ We must enjoy life however and wherever we can. Be well, my dear.
Thank you. I hope so too. XO
Cute photo of Angel Drake. I’m glad you’re finding time to spend with the kids and take a few breaks from clearing the house. I hope you’re finished soon.
Thank you. I hope we are finished soon too. XO
It is hard to empty out someone’s house after they are gone. I hope you and your husband plan something nice for yourselves as a restorative treat.
Angel Drake made a great Mardi Gras kitty. Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

Thank you. 🙂 Pawkisses for you too. XO
Kids as in the 2-legged kind or 4? The kitties might be wondering about that one. Well…only if they can read. lol Kids and furkids are wonderful distractions. Each gives the human spirit a lift just when you need it the most. 🙂
Yes, they do. XO
