    I believe that my stubbornness comes from my father also.
    I need to start a countdown to spring because I’m definitely ready for it.
    It’s a shame that our younger selves don’t realize all of our good qualities until we are much older

      I agree about the good qualities. We’re so much wiser when we get older. 🙂

      I’m sorry it’s to cold for you, Miss Molly. I notice the older I get the colder I am most of the time. 🙂

  2. Memories of Eric and Flynn – I started this blog to show my holiday photos but haven't added to it for so long, but you can see my other holiday photos at https://allatseawithme.blogspot.com My main blog is my cat blog at https://twodevoncats.blogspot.com
    Memories of Eric and Flynn says:

    I can be very stubborn too and most likely get it from my mum. I can’t remember much about my father. He died when I was 5 and spent much of the time before that in hospital.
    That is a lovely kitty, and of course it is a ginger!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It’s amazing the traits we get from our parents. You have some from your dad too. Even if you don’t remember him.

      We both love ginger kitties. 🙂

    Our breed is stubborn and our mom is stubborn too, so we all understand each other quite well, but no one likes to give in! We didn’t know you were in law enforcement. I guess we will follow the rules better from now on 😉

      I hear you. I understand you too. I’m long retired, but spend 25 years there. 🙂

    Cute kitty. I hope he has a warm place to go. Thank you for participating in the fil-ins, great answers. You definitely need a lot of courage to work in law enforcement- I admire that you did that. Now that I have hot flashes, I never tire of the cold. Have a wonderful weekend. XO

      Sandee says:

      You need even more courage to work law enforcement now. They are murdered often. So sad. I remember the hot flashes. You have a wonderful weekend too, Ellen. 🙂

  7. 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.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

      We got our stubborn streak from our dads. Good for us. Happy weekend. 🙂

  8. Sandra Hangey says:

    I also got my stubborn and oh so bull headed self from my dad. It’s a good thing, I have finally realized I am a carbon copy of daddy. My younger self would be proud to know that I am now my dad

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Good for you. I was more like my mom than my dad, but I did get his looks and his stubborn. 🙂

My wisdom was not gained through a higher education but through the University Of Life and all the insight, knowledge gained through the pain of trials and tribulations on the path of weeping to healing. Though I have come a long way, I am not done yet! I still have much wisdom to gain, more growth through pain, and the beauty of spirit that come by continual shedding of the old to receive the new! Sweet Blessings!
