If You Have a Cat

A L O H A From Honolulu!

'Reclining Godzilla'
Real knowledge is to know
the extent of one's ignorance. 
Confucius




There are voices which we hear
in solitude but they grow
faint and inaudible as
we enter into the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson


Do not get lost in a sea of despair.
Be hopeful, be optimistic.
Our struggle is not the struggle of
a day, a week, a month, or a year,
it is the struggle of a lifetime.
Never, ever be afraid to make
some noise and get in good trouble,
necessary trouble.
John Lewis




Your house will always be blessed
with love, laughter, and friendship
if you have a cat. Lewis Carroll

Beer Chandelier

The crystal kind? Forget that bore!
This chandelier's a sudsy roar.
No fragile bulbs, nor fancy frills,
Great amber hues and clinking trills.

The light it casts a rose gold gleam,
Reflects on faces, sets them a-beam.
Conversations effervescent as foam,
Witty beer patter finds a happy home.

So raise your drinks, let spirits soar,
Beneath this chandelier evermore!
A testament to hops and cheer,
The smartest, booziest Bar light.
Have a beer!

  6. I am not sure that our cat does that for us, but she is ours and we are hers.

  7. Hello,
    I always love your sky images, I am sure I have said that before, lol.
    Your Pixie is a sweet cat, my pets have always been dogs.
    Take care, have a wonderful week!

  9. Carroll's quote is good, though no longer having a cat, I have not given up on those virtues!

  11. I completely agree with the cat quote. After our beloved crossed the Rainbow Bridge we said we wouldn't get another one. Three months later we caved.

  12. We sure do miss our kitties, but simply can't go through the heartbreak of losing more. We do have some grand-kittens we are looking forward to meeting, though.
    Blessings, Cloudia!

  13. Cool pictures. I like the one of all those beach lounge chairs. Does Pixie like to lie under the beer chandelier waiting to lick up the drips?

  14. I'll have a light beer to celebrate creativity.

  15. I love them all, but the quote about the cat is spot on. Pixie is a delight and beautiful.

  18. Bth of my cats bring me all these qualities. They show how much they love me in small ways, like when they sit next to me when I don't feel well and sit on my lap when I do.

    That is one unique light. It's certainly perfect for T Tuesday, dear Cloudia.

  19. It's too bad more people don't try to figure out what they are ignorant of. Those are also great cloud in the first photo. Happy T day to you and Pixie.

  23. We need to remember this...."Real knowledge is to know
    the extent of one's ignorance.
    Confucius"

  24. Great quotes as always. And Pixie is cute as ever.
    Love the chandelier!!

    Have a great weekend,
