I can’t with the cute!

Meet Bella, my sister’s cat that I’m watching until later this week. Uncle Zane (black cat) is not so sure. Smokey, grey goofball (not pictured) adores her (pictures soon).

Two lifting sessions this week. Hoped for 3 but my schedule is squirrelly with my dad’s treatment schedule.

Guess who learned he can jump over the kitty gates and get into the once forbidden living room and dining room?

Yep. Little Smokey. Picture proof with him next to the main reason I’ve tried to keep him out:

Those EARS!!!

I went to the lake yesterday to try and capture photos of birds, and was greeted by masses of dragonflies. There were so many different kinds, too!

Here's one of them:

Maybe my cosplay should be Pike’s queer sister with this hair?

Note: this is a rare selfie. Generally not a fan of photos of me. Be kind.

I hoped to get some good birb snaps today, but the best shots I got were of dragonflies. See second snap on the next post

Mine came from Calgary …he is a rescue and he picked me. He has another white patch between his back legs. He is also not impressed as he now has a baby brother.

If you added a white patch, it could be my Zane boy. They could be almost twins.

Trekkies: if you see this, post your first experience with Star Trek.
Star Trek TOS episode with the flying parasites. Spock has his back to the camera and to his left is a woman in a red dress also facing away from the camera. To Spock’s right, Kirk has turned to look towards the camera. In the foreground and out of their line of site is a ledge holding five flat blob shaped parasitic aliens the size of dinner plates.
