    Those are cute kittens. Nice fill ins. I think the world is getting nastier instead of kinder and it is very sad.

    Those kittens are adorable.
    I keep planning to get in shape but I’m having a hard time cooperating with the plan.
    I don’t know if there has ever been a time when I can say I felt brave.

    The kitty picture has disappeared, for some reason, probably because to err is human but to really foul things up requires technology.

    It would be nice to be able to teach the world to be kind. Hope you and Mr. Zane have a great weekend, hugs!

    Oh meow is me, now Mom wants another kitten or two or three… and I was just whipping Rumble into proper shape! Speaking of shape, I was hoping to treat myself into a roundish shape BUT my v e t and staff got into an evil collaboration and they now have me on a vile diet… Poor Saphera has been on one for over a year…. Ms. Sandee, this lack of treats and no table scraps is dreadful – can I have them arrested for abuse?!?!!

  8. Betty – Hello, I am Betty, the author of this blog, and this is my husband, Dan. I retired on 6/30/2018, and Dan retired about a year later, on 5/31/2019. Now that we are both retired, we plan to travel most often in our 23FBKS Micro Lite travel trailer. We also hope to travel other ways occasionally, such as taking a cruise, a roadtrip, perhaps a tour someday. In addition to travel, we like to walk, ride bikes, read, and play Scrabble. I love to write. This blog chronicles our travels in retirement. My purpose in writing this blog is: 1) to offer insight for those who may be making similar trips/adventures in the future 2) to share our adventures with family and friends who care to read and 3) to capture the memories for us. I hope you enjoy reading my blog. I hope it is uplifting, gives you a few smiles and maybe an idea or two. Comments are very much appreciated, and I will respond to all. Thank you for reading, and Happy Travels!

Sweet Blessings!

    Every family portrait has one or two members that are distracted by something more interesting to them than the camera. Excellent fill-ins.

    I wish I could train my lawn to stay the perfect length.

    I am planning to get more sports photos for parents this year.
    I know it’s time to grab the camera when the leaves start to change.
    I felt brave when I played high school sports.

    Have a blessed week.

  21. Kathe W. – Married to my best pal, mother of three grown children, retired and wouldn't be able to fit work in now-too busy having fun and learning new things every day.
    Kathe W. says:

    Oh such cutie pie kitties- we once had 4 kittens all at the same time from different places……
    Here are my answers:
    1. I wish I could train myself to slow down a bit.
    2. I am planning to get more fit this winter- for my health’s sake if not my vanity! Already swimming laps 5 days a week!
    3. I know it’s time to quit complaining when it doesn’t fix anything!
    4. I felt brave when I helped my sweetheart survive a scary medical event. I did not panic I just did what was necessary.

  23. Rosey says:

    Such a cute little bundle of kitty cats. 🙂

    Cheering you on to getting fit before summer. I have found that teaching (which I have loved the last couple of years) doesn’t allow for much actual exercise and I’m starting to get a little fluffy. I want to get back to being more fit too!

    I wish I could train students to never make fun of or put down others.
    I am planning to get presents for Christmas now, so I am not financially overwhelmed in December.
    I know it’s time to eat when I start to get a headache (I get too busy to eat at work so many times) .
    I felt brave when I transitioned from being married for many years, to being a single mom. It wasn’t the life I wanted for me or my family, but you do the best you can do when life hits you with surprises, and you fight to make your new norm a good one.

        And I am happy. Being married was so good and I loved it and never wanted or expected it to change, but being single is nice too. I am enjoying this chapter in my life. I think we make our own happy. 🥰. Thank you, Sandee and have a happy Monday. 😊

  27. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
