This and That

Even though the holiday is officially over and it is now the weekend, still, the noisy fireworks continue to terrify our cats. But, the fur baby I feel the most sorry for is Charlie, our outside kitty. I hope he is okay - he never showed up last night for his dinner as he so religiously does. Hopefully, he was just hiding out somewhere SAFE!

I just found out this past week that an old friend and acquaintance,  Mike "Magoo" (his nickname) from Flanagan's Pub had passed away of a heart attack. Mike had been a local patron since the opening of Flanagan's Pub in 1982. I loved his personality - always offering a smile and an interesting story or two ...

A snapshot of "Magoo" and me.

I most especially enjoyed his stories from New Orleans about "Madam Laveau". 

So, who exactly is "Madam Marie Laveau"?:

An adorable pic of "Dominic" as shared by Judy and Rich. And a couple of pics  of him enjoying his new laser pointer toy! He is such a little cutie pie!

Newly ordered pair of mermaid and merman earrings from ETSY that I just could not resist ...
