Caturday Art - July 17, 2021

 It's another warm summer day here in "Wally World"  - 

(aka Walla Walla).  Spending time working on cards and emails today.  

Last week I prepared a photo for Caturday Art and didn't get around to posting so I'll do it today.

Original (SOOC) Straight out of Camera shot first:  This is Speedy G (although he doesn't look very speedy in this shot.)

Now for my Art piece....

Several different effects from BeFunky were used to create this.  I rather like it.

Have a great day & thanks for stopping by.

Willy Nilly Friday Five - July 9, 2021

 Welcome!  Well summer is moving along quickly.  We broke some records in our area for heat recently with a temp of 116.  So far I'm surviving the heat mainly because I stay inside where it's cool.

Anyway time to join Tom (The Backroads Traveller) for:

WILLY-NILLY FRIDAY FIVE

 

1.  Summer Clouds

 

2. Purple Bells. - One of the new perennials I bought this year.

3. Munch mouth.  The heat hasn't stopped them from coming to the feeders everyday.  

4.  Rock Camp - Coleen participated in the (Rock Camp) last month.  They were unable to hold it last year.  The first year she participated she played drums.  This year she played a Bass Guitar and sang.

5.  Baby Fix

 

 6. Cat Nap - Caramel & Bandit usually don't sleep together so this was a rare sight.

 

 7.  My heart bleeds for you (or me).  - Caramel got scared when I tried to pick her up and she cut my hand.  I used a paper towel to wipe the blood and when I looked at the towel I saw this:

 

 That's it for this edition. - Hope you are enjoying your summer. - I ended up getting (Shingles) last week. - I'm doing very well though and healing quickly.  No photo of that though as it's not a pretty sight.

Awww Monday's - Little Red

 

Happy Monday - Joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for Awww Mondays.

 Some shots Grandma took of little Red (Joelle) this morning.  Mommy did her hair in a cute little top notch this morning.  She turned 9 months on the 1st of June.  She's crawling like crazy now & pulling herself up on the coffee/end tables etc...She's such a happy baby (most of the time) and is now getting top teeth to go with the 2 bottom teeth.

Thankful Thursday

 

Today I'm joining Brian (for some reason I always type Brain instead of Brian and have to correct it)...for his Thankful Thursday blog hop.

Today we are thankful that it's going to be a little cooler then the 102 we had yesterday! - Also thankful for sweet scenes like this one that we are able to enjoy.
