A Merry Christmas Festive Flashback Friday

Hola kittehs! The Santa watch is on tonight! The big day has just about arrived! Are you as excited as I am? ZZZZZZzzzzzzzz! Oh sorry. I only slept 20 hours yesterday rather than 24. Heh heh. There was a lot I had to snoopervise and then I had to sing loudly all night. I also have to play with TW. Maybe I didn't sleep at all! ZZZZzzzzzzzz …

A Merry Christmas Festive Flashback Friday

Last week I showed some of my Christmas decor. This week, I'm gonna feature some of the artsy templates I've used in past years. Hopefully there will be a puzzle of each of them as my prezzies to you, my loyal readers.

Templates of Christmas Past

In 2009 all we really knew was Face in Hole and Blingee.

By 2011, I was much more festive and so were the images.

OK! This is the last one! TW brought out the red nose pics from 2015. There have always been some cool apps to create art although they mostly didn't have the filters that make pics resemble paintings. Hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane and will have fun clicking on and playing with the puzzles.

Friendly Fill-ins

Now it's time for Friendly Fill-Ins, a weekly feature held at this time, which is already in progress. Our hosts—15andmeowing and Four Legged Furballs—need no innerductions as they are giants in the cat blogging world. They think up the fill-ins and I fill in the answers. My answers are boldface. This week my image relates to all of them and none of them at the same time.

1. Good health is my Christmas wish for you. That goes for humans and furries. I saw the list of CB members who flew off to the Bridge this past year and there were at least one a week. Dying has been a pandemic AND speaking of pandemics, it seems like every human is going to get this new Omicrom crony virus at least once before it goes away. No one, regardless of vaccination status, is safe.

2. I still need to check my Catmas Eve playlist to see that all the songs still play by Christmas. YouTube has an annoying habit of deleting songs.

3. 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the condo, CK was yowling and singing some songs. Kinda like I do every night. I start about 3 a.m. Hopefully I will also be spinning tunes and winning prizes at the annual Twitter #CatmasEve pawty. All monies raised go to Black Cat Rescue. Click the link to find out more or donate.

4. If I were Santa, I would want someone to leave me a plate full of KFC and cat treats on Christmas Eve.

Caturday Art

Since this entire post is art, I leave you with a Christmas card. Merry Christmas to you and your's and I hope your 2022 is merry and bright.

  1. That is a lot of puzzles...they'll keep *her* out of mischief for a long while, LOL!

    Wonderful flashbacks, too...it really is fun to see how bad our artistic endeavors were when we first started...and how the more you learn the better they get...mostly!

    Thanks for your card!

    Merry Christmas! May you all be blessed.

  5. Happy Catmas to you and your humans, CK! For Christmas, my human got shingles. :-( Fortunately, it's a mild case, and not stopping her from doing anything other than my therapy cat visits. And it's still better than the evil Covid!

  11. CK we LOVE the trip down Memory Lane! My favorite is the red nose! I loved it then and I love it now. Your fill-ins ROCK! Us cats especially LOVE #4. We too would like KFC! Too bad the closest one is a 2 hour drive away. But then again, it would NOT be good for Mom's waist line. Our Mom sings too, she sounds worse than Cinnamon, its the dancing that gets us...the floor bounces. We hope that TW is feeling a little better and that you guys have a terrific Christmas! Many Many good wishes and purrayers are heading your way from our way.
