Thankful Thursday

 

Benny: I am thankful that #1 is feeling better. We have a bunch of friends coming to dinner on Friday and #1 wanted to make sure it would be OK to welcome them, so she went and got a covid test, which came back negative.

#1 says that I am the first "Chan" with such an abiding love for boxes! I am thankful for all boxes, especially since #1 leaves them out for me most of the time!



We all got our Christmas collars this week. #1 hasn't yet managed to get decent shots of all of us wearing them, but here I am:


And here is little Ryū's:


Queen Tama's is pretty cute too!


We are thankful for the lovely collars and will try to get photos of Ollie and Momo, the latter being a really difficult task. #1 is considering some alternative approaches. Stay tuned!

There is one more thing we are thankful for! A couple of years ago, #1 bought a tropical plant called a Tibouchina and put it in a pot. It didn't do anything last year but now, it has begun to flower! The colour is so beautiful! It is in our porch, away from the cold and other nasty stuff.

  1. I am very glad #1 is better and it was not the dreaded covid. Your collars are lovely, and the colour of that flower is beautiful.

  5. An extraordinary bloom! As soon as Christmas day arrives, we imagine there will be an overload of boxes ... more fun that what's inside them!

  6. Benny, Manny and CB fight over who can sit in a new box.
    The Hubby bought a new pair of shoes the other day (good, 'cause his old pair was squeaking!), and there was a tussle over which brofur got his furry backside in first.
    *facepalm*
