Happy #Caturday from Hobbes, whose recent obsession is a discarded box, destined for recycling. I’ve decided to hold on to the box for a while… 😏

Fun night at the movies. The 1978 version remains my favorite, but this is a worthy successor. And I wanna find a red cape for my fluffy white dog!

Happy #Caturday! Recently each of my felines took a turn in a laundry basket, all on their own. Later I roped doggo in on the fun myself. Who wore it best?? I vote for Callie, who is holding a chic pose! 😻 #CatSky #DogSky #RescueCats #MikiDog

Bailey needed his own headshot on here. The third of my rescue kitties, he was an unexpected addition and is everyone’s favorite. We can’t decide if he’s the most clueless cat ever, or a secret genius. Loudest purrs. Master escape artist at curfew time. #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #BuffTabby #RescueCat

In my mailbox: Book 5 of the “Timeless” series, “Every Hour Until Then” by Gabrielle Meyer. Last fall I read and listened to the first 4 books over the course of 10 days, they were so fabulous. Early reviews seem to indicate that Book 5 delivers. Can’t wait! #BookSky #TimeTravel #ChristianFiction

I had a lovely Mother’s Day, & my guys spoiled me rotten, which included handing over the remote. 🤣 One choice was the Academy Award-winning movie “Flow”. Its accolades are well deserved, and I highly recommend it. Just take it in. My cat Bailey was transfixed as well, more than once!

@barnesandnoble.com - And my bookmark must coordinate with what I’m reading. Color/theme/etc. as much as possible. So if I lose it and have to resort to a scrap of paper, it’s a minor tragedy. #BookNerdProblems
It’s all fun and games until you lose your bookmark.

An arrogant leader uses fear to scare people and calls that power. A humble leader cares for people and the power speaks for itself.

The season of Lent begins today, Ash Wednesday. For my daily devotions I’ll be reading “The Road to Joy” from @ChristianityToday.com. Print subscribers received a lovely paperback in the mail, but it’s also available on the CT website.

My heart is heavy tonight after what went on in DC. Thank you @jenniferevalent.bsky.social
Save us from weak resignation
to the evils we deplore;
let the gift of your salvation
be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
serving you whom we adore,
serving you whom we adore.

A Word to a Discouraged Christian - Christianity Today
From Russell Moore: The gospel is real. The stories are true. Christ is risen, and Jesus saves. Why would we walk away from that?

A Celtic Night Prayer:
May the Father watch over our beds,
May Christ fill our dreams,
And may the peace of the Spirit be ours this night:
Each morning, each evening, and for evermore,
Amen.

May Christ fill our dreams,

Just to inject some positivity: Happy Valentine’s Day from my pup Scooter. I admire dogs’ fidelity and love for us. He’s always happy to see me, especially when I’m holding the car keys or a doggy treat. 😏 #MiKiDog #DogSky #HappyValentinesDay Romans 15:13

Current read when my nose isn’t in another book for school: “The Queens of Crime” by Marie Benedict. I love that Dorothy Sayers, friend of C. S. Lewis, is the “voice” of the novel. Also enjoying the audio version while running errands. #BookSky #QueensOfCrime #MarieBenedict #DorothySayers #CSLewis
