Honor Those Who've Served


France, Belgium, and Serbia: Armistice Day, November 11
Commonwealth of Nations: Remembrance Day, November 11

My father and two uncles served in World War II.
My cousin/godfather served in Vietnam.
My brother-in-law (The Hubby's brother) also served in Vietnam.

❤️ We honor all ❤️

In addition, here in Mount Clemens, Michigan, we are very near an air national guard base, and regularly see serving military members out and about in the area, and witness military vehicles on the roads.

Folks 'round here are very supportive, and "thank you for your service" is heard often.

War is not the answer, yet good people sign up to defend our countries.

These are amazing people.

Twinsies: Yes and No

It's Twozday!

Although we cannot be sure that Manny and CB are actual siblings, they were found together in an abandoned apartment (so the rescue told me), and are definitely a bonded pair.

The differences in their purrsonalities and habits become more pronounced every day, and it's fun for The Hubby and I to swap stories about their antics.

Manny, on the pedestal.
Yes, it's really Manny because of his eyebrow baldy-beans.

Da Boyz, on MY chair.
Lots of light from the window behind me, as I snapped this pic from above.
I'm not even going to try to identify who is whom!

Chili Bruce: actual photo, no tweaking shadows or color or anything!
His Brown Bear nickname is apt.

Manny:

Chews on basil plant.
Eats slowly, and walks away from the bowl often, only to demand it back after a while.
Really, really, REALLY doesn't like his paws and nails looked at.

Chili Bruce:

Runs for the hills whenever there is loud noise, like the coffee grinder, or thunder.
Wolfs his food like he hasn't eaten in a month.
Has become a real snuggle-bunny; he once fought when picked up and cuddled; now allows being held like a baby and is a lap cat for both of his humans these days.

Art Museum Chaos

 November 9 is National Go To An Art Museum Day!


A few sillies:


Unfortunately, most art museums are closed on Mondays, so go another day and enjoy!

If you can, find a guided tour because those docents have the backstory on items that you didn't know about.

November 9 is also Chaos Never Dies Day!


And more sillies:


Yes, chaos is de rigueur these days, no?
