"Cat's Eye View"

When I found all 3 of my fur babies in the same vicinity, I had to try to get them into today's photograph.  I had hoped to take one closer to Lulu but I couldn't get the lighting correct.   Luckily, I was able to get the point across from a slightly different angle.   

"Pride"

Today my daughter was inducted into the National Honor Society for the second time.   She was originally inducted as a junior and continued with her membership this year.   Tonight she spoke eloquently and with maturity when speaking of her mentor, a literary teacher who has inspired her to become an English teacher.    I couldn't be prouder of my young lady and I look forward to seeing her life unfold for her.   

"Sweet Dreams"

Today has been quite busy.   I entered a local art contest to find this years telephone book cover.  I was able to submit two enteries. 

  1. "Curves" & 2. "In the Eye"   So everyone cross fingers & say prayers and we will know by the end I next week....I'll let u know if I hear back :).  

All that being said, I hope u enjoy "Sweet Dreams" 

"Enlightenment"

I thought this was pretty.   

"Catnap"

Lulu has taken the pillows I made for our bed and turned them into her own thrones.  I think today's caption explains it all...."Catnap" 

"New Dawn"

This morning I was up early as my sweetie got ready to go to see an outdoor Rangers game at Yankee Stadium.  I've been filled with bittersweet mixed emotions.   Greg started taking me to hockey games when we started dating. 

  I had only been to one game in my life and that was a high school trip to see the Islanders.  I screamed for blood and truth be told, I scared myself with my reaction and never went to nor watched another game.

Till Greg!  I found that even though I still had a bit of bloodthirst in me, I realized as an adult, I can handle the emotion.  He was able to procure tickets to several Rangers games and I loved going.   I also have a great sweet friend who gets even more bloodthirsty than myself and it's even more shocking because she's such a gentle person.  Poor woman is a Devils fan though!  But I get it 100%(the bloodthirst not the Devils) !  

At this point though, Fibromyalgia has taken that away from me too.  At least the live games, unless we get seats that come with a couch for me to lie down on.      Irony or ironies, my friend can't go either due to her own health issues.   Heartbreakingly, her issues are life threatening  as mine are just life altering.   

So yeah, though I was extremely excited and happy that Greg got to go today, I was also very sad and reminiscing to our early years.   

This all ties into today's photograph because as I was watching Greg get ready there was a beautiful bright sunny winters day(ironically again, delay of start of game due to sun glare).  So please enjoy today's photograph as I keep things in perspective while enjoying the beauty that surrounds me!   

"Exuberance"

"Exuberance"  

I just realized that I never completed the posting of this photograph yesterday.  The good news is that this sweet girl was captured yesterday while picking up Roxie's new diet making it well within the parameters of the project.    

Our dog, Roxie, has been recently diagnosed with pancreatitis.   All we can do at this point is treat the symptoms with a complete diet change.   So we tend to spend much more time than we used too in the pet food store.  Resulting in getting to admire other peoples puppies! (I spent a good deal of time trying to convince Greg to get me a puppy....even stooped to using the tumor to try to get it....all to no avail ...so now I puppy covet).    

Enjoy!
