Update!!! I just noticed tomorrow is our 18th Blogoversary. You can see our first ever post here on July 20th 2006, and our first post with photos the next day. Thankfully I have improved with uploading photos since then.
Another update! I had a chest CT scan 2 weeks ago and saw my oncologist on Monday. He said it is clear so the evil c has not spread further. The small c is intentional, I refuse to give it a capital!
The Flashback this week comes from July 2010 and was a Sleeping Contest.
We saw that Kat's Kats are having a sleepy competition so we thought as we do lots of napping that we should enter.
We like to nap on the bed together.
We usually are touching each other when we sleep, but not always.
We like to sleep together on the recliner too.
Eric often likes to show his tummy when he sleeps whether it is indoors..........
or outdoors.
But sometimes he is so tired he just collapses in a heap.
And once he is asleep, he takes a lot of waking.
Flynn prefers to sleep on his back with his paws curled.
Or on the desk with his paws all in a pile.
But it doesn't take long before he is sleeping on his back again.
He also likes to stretch out on the desk. Maybe he needs a bigger one.
Or maybe it is safer to stretch out on the bed.

That sure sounds like some good news, I'm so happy the chest CT was clear. Keep up the good fight and we're always sending prayers and hugs your way. Love those comfy cozy boys and the pretty art.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad there is no spread! We'll not name it at all.
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful sleeping poses, you've made me sleepy. Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!
Happy Blogoversary!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the news, and continued purrs for your good health.
Lovely to see your Angel Boys napping; cats are so peaceful when stretched out like that!
Off to puzzle...thanks.
Now! That was some tummy...HeHe! :).
ReplyDeleteBless!xx
And, yes, Happy Blogoversary...!
Well Happy Blogoversary a day early as we'll be hitting the road tomorrow. We're glad to read the positive news, Jackie, and my gosh, all those fabulous sleeping poses are just the best!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! And obviously something is going right for you at the moment and I pray that it continues right through to the end. Get rid of that little c for ever. And those boys, how much fun were they together. I've never experienced two cats at one time so these pictures are extra special.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! What better way to celebrate than with good news?! Continued prayers and Light from me, and purrs from my angels.
ReplyDeleteAs for Eric and Flynn, they were champion sleepers! I especially love the belly up, paws curled. 😻❤️
Happy blogoversary! Continued purrrrayers for you
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly, I think these 2 won the Cat Olypmics competition for sychronized snoozing that we had. They were expert snoozers. Congrats on your blogoversary...and for the good CT scan. Continued good thoughts and prayers for you.
ReplyDeleteHappy 18 years of wonderful times and so very happy for the "health news" ...
ReplyDeleteI 10000000000000% agree, "The small c is intentional, I refuse to give it a capital! " thank you for the update

A sleep contest! Who on Earth will win that? A tie between every cat on Earth! And I remember Fat Eric. He introduced me to a number of other blogs, and one of them may have been this one! Excellent news about the ct scan. If it's not spreading, maybe it'll do the right thing and go back to where it came from.
ReplyDeleteHappy Bologversary and purrayers that the good news continues !
ReplyDeleteThat's really good news! They napped so adorably.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got some good news. Cute flashback. Love all the photos of Eric and Flynn snoozing. Nice art. Thank you for the puzzle. XO
ReplyDeleteMe again- Happy Blogoversary!! XO
ReplyDeleteOh, what uplifting wonderful news! I do think about you and send happy thoughts your way to you and Dad. Love the photos and catwork. Happy 18th Blogoversary! Until next time...Jean
ReplyDeleteLoved the flashback to first post and first post with pictures! We always like seeing them again, but those were special.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary!! 18 years!! Wow!
ReplyDeleteAnd wonderful that the CT scan showed no spread of anything evil...I pray that the chemo you are taking now will get rid of more of that evil. Hugs to you and to Ivor, too!! He must have been as happy as you!
Those were fun pics of your napping duo!!
We are overjoyed at the not spreading news! Let's keep on the same path dear friend.....that's our prayer. As for the photos - what can I say - those boys were SOOOO "photographable" and you have so many fabulous photos of them....their relationship was "closer than close" which has always kept my heart warm seeing that kind of companionship. Sending you lots of hugs.............Love, Pam and Teddy
ReplyDeleteWe are overjoyed at your good news, and proud of you that you are standing up to that small 'c' and not letting it take over. I imagine that a lot of this fight is a mental
ReplyDeleteone.
As for your pictures today and your stunning artwork, they are also inspirational. The boys have shown you the way.
Everyone would be better off taking catnaps on a regular basis. We hope you are having more good days than bad.
Hugs, Wendy & Dani😻🥰
Happy Blogoversary. Thanks for sharing your good news!
ReplyDeleteKitties Blue: Jackie, that is such good news about your CT scan! Hooray! You remain in my prayers. And Congratulations on your 18th blogoversary. I don’t even think I knew what a blog was 18 years ago. I absolutely loved all these photos, The photo on the desk cracked me up. Hope the boys won the contest. The art came out beautifully. I look forward to doing the puzzle. Love and hugs, Janet and XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta & Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Sawyer, Kizmet, Audrey & Raleigh

Best blog post of the day, for sure! Happy blogoversary and hooray for a fabulous report from your oncologist, Jackie! Those things both gave us much joy, as did the awesome flashback of Eric and Flynn. Big hugs!
ReplyDeleteBelated 18th Blogoversary! You've been around even longer than us, although we did not meet you until some years after we started blogging. So many lovely photos in this post!
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans
Such good news! First, the CT scan results. We continue to purr and pray for your good health.
ReplyDeleteAnd your 18th blogoversary! Another milestone.
Happy blogoversary!
And such adorable pics of the boys, and beautiful artification.
Hugs from Mummy and Purrs from Us.
Anyone not melting in adoration looking at the boys is made of stone! I LOVED every picture and word! And thank God for the clear scan!!! XX
ReplyDeleteI always love how, no matter the smallness of an area, be it a desk or shelf, a cat will lollon and off it and still be perfectly at ease. And even sleep. Your boys do make us laugh, and a real delight to see, though the jigsaws do tend to push Mrs H to the limit. Excellent news from the Doctor.
ReplyDeletePurrs and love to all
ERin & Mrs H
14+ mins on the jigsaw. Lots of fun though.
