C is for...

...hmmm.

I had one idea for this one. There is a wonderful stone Catholic Church on my way to work that I have often thought warrants a photo. See. Two C's...and on the hour...it plays carillon chimes! Two more! But I am not one to pull over and take such a shot on my way to work...or stop on my way home. At least not yet.

Then I thought about a photo-essay on 'camaraderie' with shots through the years of myself and Dearest Sister, Precious Niece and Youngest Daughter, and the Three Sibs themselves.

Then Inspiration (yes, with a capital I) struck.

Or better put, a rather large C bore into my brain her wishes.

C is for the Cat Who Would Be Queen.

The Cat who made me go outside last night barefooted to catch her lest she spend the night out in the cold amongst the hungry wild things. Like I would get any sleep with that sort of guilt going on.


The Cat who sleeps at the foot of the bed, on my side, right where my feet go, if/when I choose to stretch out, at which time she will just roll a bit over, then roll right back. Giving me chance to change my mind, as it were.

The Cat Who Would Be Queen came to live with Lovely Step-Daughter when she was a mere wisp of a girl. Lovely Step-Daughter is out of college and living on her own Way Out West now...and the Cat...

Well.

She's mine now...

And she can be queen.

Well if your can would be a queen can mine be the king? He seems to think he is anyway.

All cats are Kings and Queens! My royal furballs remind me of this every day.

She looks like a love.

PS my word is nod off, which I just might do shortly.

Cats are so cool.

But really, Colorado isn't that warm already that you have tulips blooming? My iris are under four packed, icy inches of snow! Still ... a very nice spring-y type photo for your header.

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
