Happy 2013!

Posted on 10:57 PM by jimmy

Happy New Year, everyone!


~


I've been going through some vintage postcards


 


to post here for you...


 


It wasn't easy narrowing them down to just a few!

The Winsch ones are always so elegant,



no matter the holiday...this one is from 1910.

Kitties celebrating are always fun!



Leo, Cyrus and Tallulah thought I should post all kitties,



but I said we needed a little variety ~ ;^)

I wonder what Little New Year is writing?

These Kitties look like they may be having a little too



much fun! Look at the expression on the little Girl-Kitty in the back!

One can never go wrong with Fairies and Gnomes...

...or Cherubs and pigs...with sacks of coins ~

And more waltzing Kitties!

I have been back to blogging for a little more than a year now,



and I have met the dearest people...



thank you all for visiting me and for all your sweet comments...



I used to paint and decorate,



and then have my Mom come over to see...



Or I'd tell my Dad about it on the phone when I talked to him every evening.



After they both passed, and after the loss of my nine Angel Kitties,



I could have easily let depression take over...



Of course, I have my sweet children, but they are grown



 (well, all but one, and he is almost) and have busy lives...



Blogging has given me an outlet to share what I do with



all of you, and the immediate responses I get from you are



more than gratifying...♥



Thank you.



I wish all of you a wonderful, healthy, prosperous 2013!



Love,
