Someone’s in my way…

Exhausting Caturday
Exhausting for these guys who had a visit from the vet today. Just routine checkups and vaccinations, but traumatic nonetheless. Gotta say, though, I love a vet who does housecalls!

July Writing Prompts, Day 20 – Doused in flames
From Putting My Feet in the Dirt (https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/), July’s prompts are here: https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/2019/07/01/july-2019-writing-prompts/
And today, July 20, the prompt is “Doused in flames”.
We like to be doused in flames at our house. Between five fireplaces (and let me tell you, the ultimate luxury is having a fireplace in the bedroom!), and now a new fire table on our deck, we keep the fires going winter, spring, fall, summer – it doesn’t matter. It’s all about the comfort, and of course, the kitties.

July Photo a Day Challenge, Day 19: Silhouette
Since I am now on holidays, and will be for the entire month of July, it is only fitting I am challenging myself to a series of daily posts – writing and photography. So, in addition to RDP and Fandango, here is one from City Sonnet – a July Photo a Day Challenge (https://citysonnet.wordpress.com/2019/07/01/july-photo-a-day-challenge-2/)!
And for this one, I am challenging myself to use a photo taken on the day of the prompt – and all of them will be in black and white!
Today’s prompt is: Silhouette.
Sometimes looking down reaps photographic rewards!

July Writing Prompts, Day 19 – Fighting for a future
From Putting My Feet in the Dirt (https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/), July’s prompts are here: https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/2019/07/01/july-2019-writing-prompts/
And today, July 19, the prompt is “Fighting for a future”.
It’s interesting to me how many war metaphors there are out there. We fight against time, age, our weight, cancer, and fight for the future, for justice, hell, we fight for or against anything we think worth having, or bettering, or getting rid of. The future shouldn’t be a battle. It should be about hope.
And now, since this post does not contain my usual irreverence, here is a picture of a kitten, doing what kittens do best.

A new kind of lily I have never seen before, and can’t now remember the name of…

July Writing Prompts, Day 18 – Cultured creations
From Putting My Feet in the Dirt (https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/), July’s prompts are here: https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/2019/07/01/july-2019-writing-prompts/
And today, July 18, the prompt is “Cultured creations”
Cultured creations – symphonies? artworks? Or maybe just some Kombucha. I really don’t know what kombucha is, but I do know it’s cultured. Although, I do think it would look funny in a tux. Does look good in a glass, however!

Kitten Thursday in the middle of holidays
Yes indeed. Holidays are half over…sigh… But not over yet! Right guys??
