Festival of Leaves 2021: week 12

Mother Hen3 Comments

We are now at week 12. Festival of Leaves is wrapping up its seasonal challenge. This photo was taken downtown McMinnville, Oregon. McMinnville has a charm to it, that always has fun window displays to view. Thanks to Dawn Miller, who has been hosting for quite a while now. Her photography is beautiful and she’s great to work with. I also want to thank other participants at Festival of Leaves, as well. Even though we are wrapping it up here, many of us will continue sharing our creative endeavors at our blogs. Thank you to the wonderful community of bloggers who take time to visit.

Way Back When

A special cat, who adopted us while we were in transition and asked for very little. A roof over her head and food in her bowl. I will add that she was partial to Mr. G. He fed her turkey, one Thanksgiving Day in 2002. Hey You, whom he named, decided he (Mr. G) was a keeper. Hey You had a few things to teach me, and that she did. She prepared me for the other furry friends, that we would add to our household. I attribute prayer for keeping her alive. Back in March, when Mr. G was away on a trip. I began to see signs of her declining. She lost her appetite, was disoriented and had a seizure. I tried to keep her comfortable, and looked forward to Mr. G’s return. Upon his arrival he took over and before we knew it, she was back on her feet, eating and drinking a little. She was particularly fond of white toy mice. It was amazing to watch how playful she became, even as a senior cat. We all miss you Hey You.. But I have to ask, if you put the word out and sent that rough looking, long haired, grey cat to come and visit us? Please don’t extend the invitation. Lol! Rest in Peace sweet cat..

Proverbs 31:25-31

Strength and honor are her clothing;

She shall rejoice in time to come.

She opens her mouth with wisdom,

And on her tongue is the law of kindness.

She watches over the ways of her household,

And does not eat the bread of idleness.

Her children rise up and call her blessed;

Her husband also, he praises her:

Many daughters have done well,

But you excel them all.

Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,

But a woman who fears the Lord,

she shall be praised.

Give her of the fruit of her hands,

And let her own works praise her in the gates..

 

Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on. Yes, says the spirit, that they may rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.

Revelation 14: 13

Downtown, in this very humble place..

Just a side note.. The small point and shoot camera I am using is on it’s way out. I am having to crop a black smudge in the photos. This camera has been very well used and very handy, but not all things last forever.
