Happy 250 Years of USA

 "Lynn and I want to quietly celebrate the wonderful July 4th.  We know that tonight the fireworks will start and last all weekend. But we are trying to 'member that this is the big year fur us all."



"I'm celebrating with a bit of wacky weed today and hope
when it gits dark I'll be so zonked I'll not hear the booms."


And we pray for our country to continue to be free
and democratic. 




Hot Pink Monarda






First two found. 




"Aaaarrrgghh,  I told her not to start this nonsense.  But does

My goodness Precious......That's a yawn and a half...! :).
HaHa! Bless!x

And yes...we should 'all' pray for our country to continue
to be free and democratic...though there aren't many
that still are...even over here in the UK, it's in such a
mess..politicians arguing, sticking knives in each others
backs, the media...etc..etc...and you to, have BIG problems,
especially with that evil, evil man..Trump..Less said..! :(

On a happier note, were back into a heatwave..sun was up
at five thirty this morning, just had an e~mail from Julie...
So that cheered me up...! :O)

So...Happy Independence to one and all....I'll probably
catch some of the festivities a little later on TV...! :O).

I hope you do have a quiet celebration. I'm not sure how "free" you really are, though, unless you're a white, straight male. But much of the world is in a mess, even here. Willie is right, the less said, the better.

Ahhh, I see Lynn just couldn't help herself! ๐Ÿ˜† Well, she has a wonderful caring heart. Karma points, so to speak. ❤️

Take care, sending hugs and kitty kisses.

Happy Independence Day.
I'm so glad you're nursing caterpillars again - they need all the help they can get.

What can you do, Precious?
Humans have wills of their own, somewhat like cats!
Hahaha!
Happy July 4th!

Precious...OMCs OMCs 'you told her not to start this nonsense'
that cracked me up
Maybe the nonsense will keep your busy thinking about it and keeps Lynn's mind off the noise

Brody wishes he could snuggle with you during the fireworks. Have a nice 4th! xO

Julie said...

No dear Precious - she does not listen to you, even though you are very vocal. Good on Mum for rescuing those caterpillars. She puts my small efforts to shame. And a wonderful 4th of July celebration to you all. I do hope those fireworks aren't too loud for you dear Precious.
I am off in the plane this afternoon - down south. I shall post about it on my hopefully safe return. Have a wonderful weekend. Miss Pip is trying to get in my suitcase!!! x0x

Happy 4th! Thankfully I've never had a cat that frightened by the fireworks.

If only it could be celebrated while playing the quiet game.. Did someone let a bear by your coffee table?

John Bellen said...

Those two caterpillars look like they have a pretty healthy appetite.

Ms. ~K said...

Precious, your Mom has a kind heart, & we love her for that! Our mom has been busy making sure the birds, squirrels & raccoons have enough food & water during this terrible heat wave. Your mom’s flowers are beautiful! Mom’s lantana & butterfly bush look pitiful wilting in the heat.
The boomers started here last night & I was under the bed thinking of you❣️ Rocky

Have a blessed and beautiful Independence Day!

I hope the caterpillars do as well as the flowers seem to be doing.

Smudge said...

Oh jeez, Precious, I don't know what to say about that expression in that first photo!

We hope your wacky weed helped you to sleep through all the fireworks. Wishing you a Happy Fourth of July. Purrs from Emily and Willow

Katie Isabella said...

Precious, they just won't listen! Even when we prove them wrong they STILL won't admit it.
