Day 168 - Cat & A Basket

11/9/2016

4 Comments

 
I need a cat picture today to make me smile. In fact I just need a cat! I also could use a cozy place like a laundry basket, where I can hang out away from the world and worries. I didn't have many worries at age 3, but I loved being in my own little space, with toys or books or a pet to love.

Cozy Spaces  I Loved:  A cardboard box, turned up like a boat or turned down like a house... My bed (except the years I shared with my sister) was my own space, covered with stuffed animals... My shed-turned-playhouse near the alley was the best... The canvas tent I saved up for at age 12.  Dad built me a platform in wooded lot behind the house and it became my retreat...

That's such a sweet photo, we all wish we were that happy little girl right now. My cat is sitting beside me, I think I should go find a basket.

If that was Gypsy, she'd reach up and bite you! Good think Tigger was a sweet cat.

Tigger was the best, Jennifer! I think we sort of expected all cats to be Tiggers!

    Happy List  
    ​

    I started this blog, by thinking about the things that make me laugh and smile. My "Photo a Day" posting began on May 27, 2016.  I had just been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, and I found I could keep things positive, by sharing some of my favorite photographs. After 7 months, I stopped the daily habit and aimed for a monthly posts. 

    ​Now, at the end of each month, I look back at all the things I enjoyed in the weeks before. I share some photos, along with a few words. It's a good reminder to myself, to feel grateful every day.
