Why the long face?

Bloggie pals!

Happy Year of the Horse! 

According to this site, this means a year of decisiveness and swift action! 

No glass half empty or half full! 

We are talking all or nothing, bloggie pals! 

So giddy up and off you trot towards the sunset! Mind them hurdles!

Charlie says: I decide to tidy the garden.

Have a great week everyone, happy Chinese new year!

Pancakes, Passion and Performance!

Bloggie friends!

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! It's the Year of the Snake!! Apparently the snake  is "associated with wisdom, beauty and intelligence but also pride and anger" (BBC News).  Sounds like me!  LOL!  

Oh you all so know I am only pulling your leg!

Now bloggie friends? How are y'all at reading bedtime stories to the kiddies!?

I remember reading Thomas the Tank Engine to my nephews when they were little. Their verdict? "Don't give up the day job, auntie Old Kitty".

Anyways! Here is a competition for you storytellers out there in honour of the upcoming World Book Day! All you have to do is upload a video of yourself bringing a children's story to life!  Easy! But hurry! Entries end at midnight today, 11 Feb.

Charlie says: I ignore the show off behind me.

And of course tomorrow is Pancake Day too! So get flipping! :-)

And  now as I prepare to wade through my expected deluge of Valentine's cards (ahem!) I shall love you and leave you  and wish you all a great week!  :-)

But before we go off into the sunset - here is a sweet  song to all little creatures looking for a forever home!

Fire of the Dragon!

Bloggie friends!

Happy Chinese New Year! It is the Year of the Dragon and when the Dragon roars, you sit up and listen!

The Dragon tells you this year is not a year “to be doing things by half”. (source)

The Dragon tells you this year is a time to “act on your dreams as the Dragon gives you the best chance to make them come true”. (source)

The Dragon has spoken! Go forth and conquer! Make all those cherished dreams into reality - you know what they are and you know what needs doing, so go, go, go!

Charlie says: I stand in awe after a session with my silverine pouch from Auntie Bin.


p.s. I did clean up his eye boogers after! LOL!

p.s. Just for info, Charlie's left tear duct is damaged due to an infection when he was a baby kitty, so it needs cleaning regularly but it's nothing to worry about!
