Fake Spring, Misty, Lily, Sealing, Trash Bin, Valentine Day, Yoda and Princess Leia

Happiest day 

after

the 

day!

Our fake spring has bounced

back to winter again! 

Actually, as the years

in past, winter has not been

to bad. I remember as a child

and teen, we used to have 

CoLd 

winters. Cold and 

snow.

Woke around 3am this

morning to the skies

rocking and rolling.

Thunder boomers that 

shake the house.

They don't seem to 

bother the girls but 

when I had Dakota, 

my bed would have been

shaking, with his 

shaking. That boy hated

storms.

Misty usually lays in a ball

but the other evening on the 

couch, she was doing 

some stretching and wiggling.

Stretching and hanging off

the couch.

Thursday when Lily was 

hanging with me on

the couch I snapped

a few other pics.

Sweet girls. I love

them so much.

I finally picked up some

polycrylic for sealing

painted stuff.

I have five coats of 

it on the rocks. I will 

also have a few more on 

them before I give 

Ray and Lori theirs.

I will put a couple more

on my rock before I put

it outside. 

haha...I saw this on FB and 

laughed out loud.

Growing up, my brothers and 

I picked on each other.

Ray used to be the worst

of the pickers. He used to tell 

Mark, the youngest of us, 

that we got him out of a trash 

bin. So, like I said, when

I saw this....

I busted out laughing!

Course Mark is a tad older

than 25 now, as we all are. 

By the time you read this,

Friday will have come and gone,

Valentines Day 

and my

I have been feeling all of those 

years the past six years.

Getting old really 

does suck. Getting

old with chronic pain issue

is totally uncalled for.

Yoda UPDATE..

In honor of Yoda, 

there was a total of $15,000 

raised for the True Rescue, and 

on top of that, Mike and his 

wife adopted a beautiful 

girl. Her name is 

Princess Leia.

Here is what Mike had to say~

She was dumped on New Year’s Eve in Hermitage soon after giving birth to five adorable kittens. It was during a bitter cold spell with single-digit temperatures, yet she miraculously managed to keep each of her babies alive.

Amy Head Simcik, Kristin Condit and the folks at True Rescue were alerted by someone who spotted Leia and her babies in a cubbyhole she had created and rushed to save them before the family had to endure another brutal night they may not have survived.

I first saw the kittens at True Rescue and was particularly interested in adopting a male in the bunch who reminded me of Yoda. That was on a Saturday. When I returned, however, a few days later all five of the precious kittens had been adopted.

Leia, whom I still had not seen, was undergoing her spay process and not yet available for adoption at the time.

When I visited True Rescue this past Sunday it was Leia’s first day out and I instantly fell in love with her. She came up to me bouncing on her hind legs demanding I rub her neck and boldly chatting non-stop - “meow this” and “meow that.”

She was full of personality and, of course, resembled Yoda especially with her expressive green/gold eyes.

You guys named Yoda so I’m leaving it up to you to give Leia her permanent name. I thought about “Yaddle,” who like Yoda was a Jeidi master but female, but Lady does not like it.

So give me your thoughts and let’s go on this next journey together while never forgetting the love, joy and craziness Yoda brought to the lives of so many

Thank you, Mike, who was not a

cat person, UNTIL he 

met Yoda. Mike has a big

heart and I know him, his

wife Lady and their 

baby Bucky will love 

Princess Leia and give her

an amazing life. 

Have a great day, 

and hug your fur babes

today,

Pam
