Blogging from A to Z Challenge: L is for…Libations (#AtoZChallenge)

Welcome to my April 2019 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

I’ve revealed my theme (A picture-story a day (in the life, so to speak)), and as I have every year, I am going to be blogging my theme letters on the fly – this year I didn’t even plan to do otherwise!  So, here goes nothing 🙂

Today, L is for…Libations

At the end of a long day of cleaning the house, doing laundry, and all those things that keep getting put off during the week until the weekend, there is nothing like a little libation to say “good job!”

Today, K is for…Kittens

Of course, what else?  I know I just showcased Jasper yesterday, but Kittens are part of my life every day, so it fits my theme.  Not that it matters – K is always for Kittens in my book!  So, just for you (and me) here is a parade of some of the Kittens who have deigned to live with Kevin and I over the years.  They have all been our family, and we miss those who have left us.

Chill Simon

And sweet sister Bailey

And my angel Finnegan.

Our big, lovable Dexter

Blogging from A to Z Challenge: J is for…Jasper!! (#AtoZChallenge)

Welcome to my April 2019 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

I’ve revealed my theme (A picture-story a day (in the life, so to speak)), and as I have every year, I am going to be blogging my theme letters on the fly – this year I didn’t even plan to do otherwise!  So, here goes nothing 🙂

Today, J is for…Jasper!!

Like Elliot, Jasper is 8 years old this year.  He is supposedly one day younger than Elliot, although we can’t really be sure.  Jasper joined our household one month before Elliot – they look alike, but are not related at all.  While Elliot is afraid of nothing and a mostly about cuteness and mischief, Jasper is sensitive and regal looking, as you will be able to see in the 8 years of Jasper pictures I am sharing here.

My avatar – taken shortly after Jasper came to live with us.

Jasper

This is also early on, but shows off his spots and long lanky legs.

Jasper 1

You can kind of see Jasper’s gorgeous green eyes here.

Jasper 2

A typical expression, looking startled and surprised!

Jasper 3

And in a more regal mood.

Jasper

Who, me?

But he does have a cute side as well…

I am not sure what he is looking at…

And is favourite spot since we put in the gas inserts.

And finally, close up and personal with Jasper!

Blogging from A to Z Challenge: I is for…I don’t have a clue (#AtoZChallenge)

Welcome to my April 2019 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

Today, I is for…I don’t have a clue.

Ever have one of those weeks – hit the ground running at work, and suddenly it’s past quitting time and by the time you get tired you can’t think of anything beginning with the letter I to blog about (and you haven’t taken any pictures at all because you were too busy so you can’t even fake it)?  That’s where I am at today.  So, in celebration of I don’t know, enjoy some completely random pictures I have taken over the past week you haven’t seen yet!

I don’t have a clue why I took a picture of a banana.

I don’t have a clue why Nico let me take pictures of him yesterday, but here is another glimpse for you!

I didn’t have a clue what else to do for one of my 365 Project photos…this was it!

I really don’t have a clue why I took this picture.  Bored waiting for a meeting to start.

Another tulip, this one weighed down by the downpour (it was nice to have the rain though!)

Blogging from A to Z Challenge: H is for…Hungry (#AtoZChallenge)

Today, H is for…Hungry

Ok, yeah yeah yeah.  I know this is also Ragtag’s Daily Prompt, but this is my state today.  I was in back to back 3 hour meetings, and lunch was served at the second one (in the time I was at my other meeting), but I had to eat my sandwich during the meeting, and I’ve been starving ever since.  And Kevin is out tonight, and there is nothing in the house to eat, so I need to forage for food shortly.

And then there was these guys, as always ready and waiting for me when I got home (they always know it’s me pulling into the driveway) because I am the giver of food.  They show their appreciation by ignoring me and diving right in.  Well, at least I don’t have picky critters (Even if they are messy…)!

And now, off to forage.

Pictures, thousands of words…

What does a successful relationship look like to you?

If you could turn any activity into an Olympic sport, what would you have a good chance at winning medal for?

What do you wish you knew more about?

What is better in your opinion – asking for forgiveness or permission?
