Hooray for Friday

Hello Everyone.  It feels so good to be back blogging again.  I want to thank everyone that stopped by and left comments about the wedding.  Also for your patience with me during my blog break in preparation for the wedding.  I missed you all and am very happy to be back blogging again.

Today I thought I would try out a couple of new (to me) memes that I found.  Feline Friday hosted by Steve (Burnt Food Dude).  This is my first time visiting his blog (but not my last).

Our newest cat, Spooky-boo hiding under a towel on the bathroom floor.

I also discovered this meme:  Feline Art hosted by Julie (Kitty Par-Tay)

For my piece today I went simple.  I took the above photo, used the Posterize feature on Pic Monkey, a Circle Frame and Photo corners and came up with this:

Also joining  Hilary (Feeling Beachie) for Follow Friday for Fill-In Fun.


The statements:
  1. 1. ___ is my least ____
  2. 2. When I was ___ I thought _____
  3. 3. My worst subject in high school was ___
  4. 4. I write best ____.
My answers:

1.  Winter is my least favorite season (I never look forward to it.)

2.  When I was little  I thought you could taste rain so I licked the sidewalk.  It's not very tasty!

3. My worst subject in High School was  Math.  Not just High School but through out college too.

4.  I write best when no one is around to interrupt me.

Wishing everyone a great weekend.

    Glad you're back blogging. Cute post and cute cat! My blogging has been very sporadic the last couple months and now I'm going on a break. But only a short one. Glad the wedding was a success!

    Enjoyed your cute kitty photos, Ida. And I feel the same way about winter. I don't mind it in December and January, but it really drags in February through April!

    Hi Ida, So happy you are back blogging. What a fun photo of Spooky.
    Math was always my hardest subject in school, also.
    Hope you have a good weekend.

    The wedding looks beautiful, I love the sunflowers. I had to chuckle as math was my worst subject too.

    Welcome back Ida! Cats are a fun post to come back with with in my opinion.. ;) Spooky-boo has a sweet face. Love the post editing.. so much fun to play with photos!
    I am STILL terrible at math.. Thank goodness for the calculator on my phone! I am NOT a summer person, hanging head in shame. Enjoy your Friday!

    Hiya Ida!
    Feline Friday is right up Josephine's alley!

    Do you have many other kitties? Spooky-boo looks SO sweet. How are they reacting to each other? Sometimes I think another kitty to keep Miss J company would be a good thing. But, she is EXTREMELY routine oriented. She wants everything just the same all the time. I am afraid a new cat would be something she would not get over. Especially since she was feral as a kitten.

    Oh, Ida, Spooky-Boo is so sweet and I love your edit. Any cat(or dog) whose name ends in Boo is great with me and with Izzi. Love this whole post ...

    What a sweet kitty! You did a great job photographing her. Don't worry a minute about the bloggy break -- we all take them, and a wedding is a really important reason to do so :)

    Oh my on licking the sidewalk, but what do we know as kids, huh? :)

    Definitely math and I was a business major in college. Didn't do that great in accounting. :)

    Thanks for sharing.
