T. G. I. F!

But what do I care?

Every day is vacation for a retiree!

Some found-on-the-interwebs sillies to express my feelings:

The card I sent my Bro-in-law when he retired last week.

Thank you for the kind words for my niece on yesterday's post.

That Hard Good-Bye

Farewell, Magoo.

💔 😿 💔

My niece's cat Magoo experienced a sudden and unexpected downturn, and was helped to The Rainbow Bridge this past Saturday.

Magoo was a stray kitten found in the backyard in Ohio, and traveled to many places with his human.

I last visited with him and his fursis Eevee when in New York in 2025, and both cats slept with me on that occasion.

Love you, Magoo.

Hugs and purrs to his humom, and to Eevee.

Eevee in 2025; she's missing her big brofur.

Magoo was the first cat in my life to jump up to visit me in bed, and that is a memory that I'll always be thankful for.

💔 😿 💔

Jackie Avery from Two Devon Cats Blog, also known as Memories of Eric and Flynn left us recently.

Am sure that Celestial Eric and Flynn ran right up to her as she entered The Pearly Gates!
