It’s a busy and painful weekend here in the CatBox. Everyone loved the feast, especially Oh and Shit. The other residents thoroughly enjoyed them. On the downside, spending several hours in my chair was far more than my back could handle. We took pictures, and I shall share them with you after they have been approved by Ivy Court. Please pray for Republication and pain relief.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Glad the feast was enjoyed, but sorry about the effect on your back. Ah well. As the saying goes, everything has the defects of its qualities.
Cartoon – Truly disgusting.
Blast – Lovely tune and lovely voice, like all of his work. Lyrics – well, if you want a marriage (like a democracy) to last, you’d better come out of fantasy and step into reality. Yes, it’s hard. Yes, it can hurt.
You are up early, and I am up late. So everything else is going to be late today.
Wonderful!
Beautiful. Great words, spoken by people who has stood and cared so much about others.
Thanks Joanne
Very nice poster.
LOVED this! Thanks!
Lovely poster, Joanne.
Cartoon: Really. What a sick, cruel as-!
BFTP: Seems like yesterday…good song.
Glad that everyone enjoyed the feast that you treated to all the residents. Such a sweet gesture, Tom.
Hope that your back feels better soon, and that you have a chance to flush away those nasty R’s. I pray for your relief from your pain too. Hope that you have a good day, take good care, and Thanks, Tom.
This just in: “I was humbled to learn this morning that readers of the Austin Chronicle had chosen to award me a “Best of Austin” award, for the 12th time. Honored to be nominated among several great local leaders – all doing excellent work in a most challenging year.” ~ Lloyd Doggett ~

4. “Robert Mueller laid out ways in which Donald Trump potentially obstructed justice (even though Mueller would not prosecute Trump as President), and notes that Don McGahn’s testimony was key to putting that together. McGahn is now due to speak to Congress about what he told Mueller and Trump is no longer President.” ~ Rachel Maddow ~

TJI#: Sounds good to me.
TJI#2: Stacey rocks!
TJI#3: Absolutely!
TJI#4: This could/should be interesting. Not that he won’t feel the pressure of TOT looking over his shoulder.
TJI#5: Is Andy doing straight news, again?
TJI #4 – About a year from now, I would like to see Donnie blanketed with indictments.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
I said Id be late to the party – and I certainly am.
TJI #5 – Andy also said Ivanka is applying for a job as Joe Biden’s daughter. Good luck with that (not)!
JD: So sweet!
Love the montage of to ‘Be Kind’, and all things positive, compassionate.
Thank You!
May you republicate massively!
‘Toon: POS! Not that I doubt that he has raped, but I think the “pussy grab” may just have been empty braggadocio; “may” being the operative word.
BFP: Even the thought of listening to Gordon brings warm chills.
Of course it would never occur to you to grab a strange woman by the pussy. But I can testify that it happens. (though it they’re not a star, they do it by surprise and fast, and are gone before one can possibly identify them.)
Cartoon: Despicable creep.
BFTP: Great song.
Happy to hear that the gathering went nicely. It was very thoughtful of you and Wendy. Do look forward to seeing the photos.
Hopefully today you can rest, to help relieve the back pain you encountered from siting in your chair so long.
Praying that you don’t have any issues regarding Republicating today and that your pain gets better soon.
Take care. Thanks Tom
You can’t go wrong with BBQ ribs (even if they’re not Kansas City ribs)!
Glad everyone enjoyed the feast – including Oh & Shit.
If the weather’s been warm, TC…..a barbeque seems perfect! Now we just need to get you a more comfy chair or a big cushion or something to make it easier. A great idea and very, very thoughtful! GOOD KITTY!
sounds like a tough, painful week….hope they can get the medications correct and help….sounds like a nice thing you did with the BBQ…..always hoping for good days for you….
What a shame that having a nice social gathering with BBQ ribs has such dire consequences, TomCat. It would be nice to see the photos but if putting them up on PP takes too long a sit in your chair, please don’t persist. You’ve been through enough pain. You must take care of yourself first.
Cartoon: The former guy hasn’t been able to grab much lately, has he?
BFTP: What is not to like about this ballad? Beautiful melody, intriguing text and a voice that melts the cockles of my heart.
Love JD’s poster.
Thanks and Hugs to all!
Hi! JD, really liked the poster, thx. TC, hope you get feeling at least some better—-SOON! Glad you had a nice BBQ. Hello, Wendy! Got snacks stockpiled here , hoping for indictments whenever they arrive. Cat goddesses having their own grand jury re: “pussy grabbing.” How ’bout that Rudy? LOL! Take care,all.
