CHRISTMAS CAT SOCKS

Hello, friends!  Hope you are having a wonderful day.  I have been having quite a time with this post.  I accidentally changed the settings and I couldn't figure out how to get it back to where I wanted it to be.  So I had a lot of this post started and then ended up deleting everything in frustration.  I know what I did now, so I won't have this problem again.  I'm usually pretty good at figuring things out, but this time I was stumped!

So how has 2021 been treating you so far?  I have great hope for this year.  I look at my calendar pages all clean and blank and think about all the things that may happen on those beautiful days before us.  So far the only things I have written on the pages are doctor appointments.  But even those are good things.  We are so fortunate to live in a place where we can get medical help.  So many do not have this option.

And this pandemic will not last forever.  I heard on TV the other day a newscaster say that just like we had the Spanish Flu in 1918...

...we will bounce back with the Roaring Twenties.

I don't know about that, but I feel 2021 will be a better year than the last one.

When I was cleaning up the other day I found my 15 days of cat socks calendar.  I had forgotten all about it.  So I have started opening the doors and getting my cat socks even though Advent and Christmas are over.  Is there a bad time to get cat socks?  Here are the first three pair.  I will show them to you every few days until all 15 are done.

The door for day one says, "Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree.  Your ornaments are history."  I can see Jack saying that.  We have not had a Christmas tree since we got him.  Maybe next year.  I wonder how he will react.

And here are the socks.  Green with white cats playing with ribbons and Christmas lights.

Day two's door says, "To err is human.  Cats are never wrong."  So true in Jack's mind.

The socks are navy with gold and white cats on them.  So cute!

Last night I opened door number 3.  It says, "I'm not fat, I'm just fluffy."  I had to laugh.  My first cat, Fluffy, was a huge fluffy cat.  She was part Norweigan Forest Cat which can grow to be the size of a small dog.  And she was.  Whenever someone said she was fat, I would say, "She's not fat, she's fluffy."  In fact, a lady I worked with gave me a refrigerator magnet with that written on it.

I'm wearing these socks today.  They are hot pink with black and gray tiger striped cats on them.  There are some white snowflakes here and there too.

It may seem as if I am describing these in a lot of detail, but I have several readers who have sight problems and I hope by my descriptions it makes it easier for them to enjoy my blog.

I open the sock calendar after dinner and see what socks I will be wearing the next day.  It's so fun. 

The day is beginning and I have a lot to do.  Thank you for stopping by.  Have a wonderful, if cold, day.  Try to stay warm!

Until later...
