It's Walkin' & Readin' Wednesday!
Chalk drawings found on my neighborhood sidewalks:
Fish or marine animals
Golly, have no idea...
"Never Give Up!"
Now I want a box of chalk for myself.

Non-Fiction Audiobooks that I listened to recently and recommend:
Thirteen Perfect Fugitives: The True Story of the Mob, Murder, and the World's Largest Art Heist by Geoffrey Kelly, narrated by the author
The Gardner Museum heist in Boston in 1990 is a real mystery, but former FBI Agent Geoffrey Kelly has the inside scoop. We've got stories of the mob, cops, teenagers out drinking, and priceless artwork that has not yet been recovered, all told with humor, insight, and humility.
Humor Me: How Laughing More Can Make You Present, Creative, Connected, and Happy by Chris Duffy, narrated by the author
"For anyone who has tried out meditation, a new year's resolution or gratitude practice as a self-improvement strategy, HUMOR ME offers a fresh and exciting path to greater presence, creativity, connection and joy."-Goodreads
If This Be Magic: The Unlikely Art of Shakespeare in Translation by Daniel Hahn, narrated by the author
"How does Shakespeare remain Shakespeare when every word is changed? In this playful, meditative exploration of translating the world’s most beloved playwright, Daniel Hahn guides us through the magic of bringing the Bard to a global audience."-Goodreads

Henry Update:
Yeah, that didn't work.
I didn't give Henry his 8 pm appetite stimulant on Monday, to see if he would eat on his own. He didn't/wouldn't eat Tuesday's breakfast.
*SIGH*
Therefore, he received the 1/4 pill with his 8 am meds, and he's eating well again.
I knew better, but allowed my logical mind to override my gut instinct:
Gut: "He didn't eat for days last week; leave him be."
Mind: "He's eating like crazy; time to scale back!"
*EYEROLL*
We enjoyed a quick cat nap together on Tuesday afternoon.

Let's Hop!
We come to bring more Healing Pawkisses for Henry. Stay well sweetie🙏🏼🐾😘💞
ReplyDeleteWell, at least you know not to cut off that med too quickly...maybe a weanint=g process would be better? Nonethe less, keep on eating, Henry!
ReplyDeleteThat was fun seeing the chalk work in your neighborhood. Make sure what kind of interesting doesn't it. Poor Henry. Somewhere along the line there's got to be the perfect answer for him.
ReplyDelete#1 says that the Shakespeare book looks really interesting, as she has had quite a few discussions on the matter herself (being a professional translator and all that).
ReplyDeleteLooks like Henry needs a little more help, but you'll get there!

Mom loves to laugh, and there is so little to laugh about these days, she is going to check on the second book. And English being one of her two college majors, she finds the concept of the last book fascinating, and will check that one as well. Thanks for the recommendations. When the bridge from our neighborhood was torn down two years ago for replacement, a huge party was held, and everyone was given chalk so they could write messages on it. Mom has already forgotten what she wrote. Good luck with Henry! We cats like to challenge you humans. As to riding on your back and shoulders, be careful what you wish for. Claws are always involved!

ReplyDeleteAre those chalk fish swimming upside down? Healing thoughts for Henry always. ❤️
ReplyDeleteI always stop and read what artists do with chalk. Adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove the books and Henry needs the meds. Sigh indeed.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
Sweet photo of Henry ~ more healing energy hugs and prayers to be well ~ Hugs ^_^
ReplyDeleteAlways a great sign of Spring ~ side walk chalk drawings ~ ^_^
That's fun neighborhood chalk art! Don't stop meds that work for Henry, he needs them.
ReplyDeleteThe second one is someone standing over a cage with a bird in it.
ReplyDeleteI understand the frustration you feel with yourself, but you're doing wonderful, my dear. Fingers and paws crossed, he'll resume and continue improving. :) You should absolutely get yourself sidewalk chalk! In fact, now you've got me thinking... A lot of neighbors walk here. Just yesterday a fellow complimented me on my blooming horse chestnut tree, which makes me want to put kind words out for all to read. Thanks for the idea and be well!
ReplyDeleteYou should get some sidewalk chalk. Those first 2 books look good. Sorry Henry still needs that pill. XO
ReplyDeleteAww, sweet Henry...
ReplyDeleteYes, get sidewalk chalk.
ReplyDeleteThe books look amazing.
Henry, keep eating, please.
You have some budding Van Gogh’s in your neighborhood
ReplyDeleteCutting back with Henry might be the next step, rather than going cold turkey. But I would have done the same, just to see. The chalk drawings made me think of "Galaxy Quest": never give up, never surrender! And you remember that, Henry.
ReplyDeleteYou have some creative chalk artists in your neighborhood! And as far as Henry...sometimes you just gotta go with what works. But I understand your feelings.
ReplyDeleteI love the chalk drawings. Have a beautiful day.
