Today’s Photohunter theme is “in memory”.
This photo was a gift from my dear friend Mudhooks, who took a pic from my gatitos Fotki album, and softened and framed it for me after my cranky & beloved Lua died. You can see the original photo below…

Yesterday evening I finally got to see Flor’s rooftop garden.
Some of you may remember that I met Flor shortly after going back to yoga in January. Haven’t seen a lot of her recently because she’s been spending a lot of time in Portugal (she has property there with an amazing garden), though she did come with me for my last “chemo picnic” on April 23rd. Anyhow, I’ve been dying to see her place for ages and so after our post-yoga juice break yesterday she invited me to come over after I finished my class with Dr A.
Had a great time, a lovely meal and got to meet Flor’s two cute pups and gorgeous cat. Later on today we’re going to tart up her blog with some of the photos I took, but for now just a wee sneak preview …

Today’s Photohunter theme is “walking”.
It occurred to me the other day that almost all my footwear is red. This is the selection that I spied while sitting up in bed having coffee – I think all that’s missing from my “collection” is one pair of black sandals and a pair of black shoes.
Must be that red footwear makes for happier walking.

They’re good, aren’t they?
I’m going to be in their league soon.
Practice, practice, practice …

Today’s Photohunter theme is “protection”.
Yep, we’re back to cats today.
Three photos showing various types of protection.
All pre-digital and so they’re pretty grainy.
Above we see a very young Sunny with his very protective mother Lua, just before their relationship totally changed and Lua went back to being the crankiest beyotch on four paws. She’d had about a six-week respite after the birth of her kittens during which time she became the most amazingly lovingest mother in the world. But once this period was over there were no more warm cuddly moments like this one and so you can imagine my concern a year and a half later when I brought Azar home. He was about five months old and I had no idea how the other two would respond to him. Well, you can clearly see Lua’s response by the evil look in her eyes below …
