Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 First, some more cards I have received, and thank you to everyone who sent them. A quick update. I should have had chemotherapy yesterday but have been feeling so ill that the chemo nurse had a discussion with my oncology doctor and they decided it would be better for me to miss it. Next week is my week off so that gives me two weeks for my body to recover. I have been doing quite well throughout, but this last week has really hit me. Hopefully in 2 weeks time I will feel much better again.

This week the flashback comes from July 2010 and was a Tummy Tuesday.

Flynn: Just a minute, you've caught me before I've got my tummy ready.

Eric: ::watching::

Flynn: Have you ever had the feeling you are being watched?

Eric: Chaaaaaarge!

Flynn: Yikes! What happened? I feel like I've been hit by a tornado!

For Flynn I started with Psychedelic at 40%, then added Illusion at 35%.

  2. I am praying you feel better and more able to handle the meds in a couple of weeks.

    I'll bet those two did charge at each other like tornadoes when they wanted to have a good play session. Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

  3. Dearest Jackie & Ivor,
    So sorry that you were feeling so sick and indeed a good thing you can have some off time to let your body recover. Feel warmly embraced 💞
    Oh, mean Eric for hitting Flynn while he was distracted with cleaning his belly!
    Excellent photos of the incident and so timely.
    Hugs,
    Mariette + Kitties

  4. Firstly, I think you are holding up better than I would be, Jackie. Chemo-therapy isn't for wimps, it seems. I hope you are indeed feeling better, and soon. Secondly, that sneak attack had me chuckling. Hardly fair - but funny.

  8. And it looked like he got hit by a tornado. Those two boys must have really been some action figures when they were outside. I do hope you feel better in that in two weeks you can continue on with your chemo. I'm sure it cannot be easy at all, I would have no idea. Lots of prayers and prayers coming from our Direction though. Lynn and Precious

  9. I hope the two weeks off gives your body the time it needs to recover enough for the next round. I'm sending lots of hugs and healing energy. 🙏❤️

    That "tornado" gave me a chuckle. The boys were big kitties, it would have been quite an impact. Lol.

  27. The effect of chemo is cumulative so it's no surprise that you're feeling sick and tired. Hope the extra week off will leave you stronger. Will continue to keep you in our thoughts.
    I agree with the others -- this weeks pictures are delightful and tell a good story.

  33. Sorry to hear you are feeling so ill. It will be nice for you to have a break. Thanks, by the way, for offering the advice on resizing. It was kind of you considering how badly you are feeling. The pictures of Eric and Flynn are charming as ever, and I always enjoy your art. They are so special.

  36. Dearest Jackie, Thank you for your condolences, it means a lot to me. Cinnamon is missed terribly. Especially by Kozmo. He was about 6 months old when Cinnamon came to live with us. I did not know that cats and dogs could be a pair bond until those 2 met. It was funny to see how much they "Kept an eye" on each other and how Kozmo would follow us on our walks. They even slept together, more after we found out Cinnamon had cancer.
    I remember you in my prayers everyday and think of you often. I do hope that you feel better soon. Put your left hand on your right shoulder and your right hand on your left shoulder and squeeze...it is a HUG from me to you!
    Keep being awesome
    Love Barb
