Out of the blue

OK....it has been almost a month since my last gloomy post. It's been a rough month, but I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel & I'm emerging slowly from my blue funk.

And no....I really don't think it has anything to do with the weather here (it has actually been mostly sunny...not gray). Actually, I wish winter would stay a bit longer & snow alot more. I'm not ready for spring! (But who knows...I might change my mind in a month!) Here a a couple of shots of last weeks quickie snow. Not nearly enough to satisfy me.






So...check this out. Is this not THE most patient cat ever? Honestly...I think he's a dog at heart. The other day, Anna moved on from performing her beautyshop work on her dad to the cat. Simon patiently accepted all the brushing, "blow drying" and barrettes.


BUT.....I did not see this until late that night as I removed his collar.....but see those little clippies on his chest? Yeah...those pink, silver & blue clippies in the photo below? Well those dang little things were actually clipped more to his skin than his silky fur! Poor kitty had been wearing those little darlings all day without complaint. Ouch!! He's an amazing little fella!

Blue skies ahead! Watch out! ;-)
