Appreciate the Moments—Lucky

Welcome to the third month of Appreciate the Moments, a photo challenge which goes live the first Friday of each month with a new prompt. March's prompt is Lucky. I will be posting a lot of photos and not all of them will include The Cat. Likewise, not all of them are good but all were taken by cracked "photographer" TW.

I'm a lucky cat. Not just cos I have a forever home with lots of toys, cat trees, food and treats, love and a social media presence. There's more.

Some would say I'm lucky cos I can look out my window from my cat tree and see the New York City skyline. We get to see the fireworks over Central Park. Soon, though, they will begin work on the building next door which will disconnect my bird-tv and the peeps' skyline view.

On the 4th of July, we can see the Macy's fireworks from the courtyard.

The number one reason I'm a lucky cat is cos Pop can work from home. He doesn't make a ton of money but he has a pawsome job. He gets to meet all kinds of past and current NY politicians like Liz Holtzman, Michael Bloomberg and my favorite Jumaane Williams. He also gets to dine at such fine restaurants as Ciprianis, the NY Athletic Club and The Plaza. I'll have to ax if he's ever seen Eloise at The Plaza. [Ed. Note: No] His job also afforded him the opportunity to sit in a luxury box at Yankee Stadium and paid him to socialize kitties at Bideawee's NYC shelter. Can you believe he was voted "employee of the month" for February? Best of all, he gets to work from home. He calls those days "Take Your Cat to Work Day."

The Friendly Fill-Ins are hosted each and every week by 15andmeowing and McGuffy's Reader. They make up the fill-ins and I make up the answer. Each week my image relates to one of the fill-ins. This week it's #1, obviously.

1. My favorite Dr. Seuss book is The Cat in the Hat, of course. TW wasn't exactly a Dr. Seuss fan. I may have mentioned this before. She doesn't remember reading them as a child but knows Green Eggs and Ham cos R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe used to recite a part of it during concerts. Then again, she's blocked out most of her early childhood.

2. The most interesting person I have ever met is Pop. I haven't met that many peeps to be sure. TW tells me I met Aunt Pauline when I was very young and she's inneresting. Both TW and Pop have met tons of famous peeps. They both say that regular people are more inneresting than most famous ones.

3. Besides books by Dr. Seuss, TW's favorite book as a child was Jenny Lind and Her Listening Cat. She also loved Charlotte's Web; in fact, she still owns the hard-cover book. 

4. Lately, I have been working on my poos. You read that right. All my life, I've poo'ed about four or five times a week. This month I've gone 23-5. I guess I like hearing the peeps sing The Poo Song although the lyrics have changed since I wrote that post. No, that can't be it.

Today is also Dr. Seuss Day. I let Facebook do all the work this year. They generated some Dr. Seuss quotes especially for me. I really like the second one. The first one defines me cos I'm always telling the peeps that I have questions and they better have answers. MOL!

Do you have a favorite Dr. Seuss quote?
