Saintly Shimshi's Own Sunpuddle: Caturday Art and Sunday Selfies

Greetings, Effurrybuddies - and Shavua Tov (a Good Week)! 

And it really is a Good Week this time. The horrible, wet, cold, white stuff that made life miserable last Wednesday and, to an extent, Thursday, has all melted away, the Skywater has stopped falling and it is gloriously sunny (though still COLD)!

More of the Lockdown restrictions have been relaxed and it is now pawsible, amongst other things, to go to shopping malls and cultural purr-formances (the latter, only if you have a "Green Passport" showing you have either had your two doses of vaccine against the Evil Coronavirus OR have had the disease and recovered). And it is now pawsible also to hold gatherings of up to 10 people indoors, so Mummy's Caterwauling Club can resume activities in small groups, which they will be doing as of this evening. Mummy, however, is in the Second Group and will have to wait until later in the week - so We will have to put up with her caterwauling at home till then (mol).

And Furriday is PURR-IM (Saturday, if you live in Jerusalem, as We do). That is mostly a Good Thing, but We are afraid Mummy will take it into her head, as She sometimes does, to try and dress Us up in Fancy Dress.
We do not like that!!! If She tries, She will have a Rebellion on her hands!

Now, it is time to join this week's Blog Hops - the Caturday Art Blog Hop, hosted by the Wise and Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop, hosted by the Incredible Kitties Blue and their HuMum, Janet.

We have used the same photo for both blog hops. Here is the original, where you can see Me bathing in one of the many sunpuddles We have been enjoying when it wasn't snowing or raining.   We like it because you can actually see the Sun's rays bathing Me in their Radiance!  It kind of makes Me look like a Saint, with a halo, doesn't it (mol)?

To artify it, We used the Edtaonisl Effect at 50% and a simple, elegant frame from Mummy's prefurred photo-editing website, LunaPic:

And here are the Blog Hop Badges:

                   

   

Before We start blog hopping, We want to remind you, once again, even if your Humans have been fully vaccinated, that it is still terribly impawtant that you and they continue to observe Social Distancing restrictions, wear facemasks and WASH YOUR PAWS as often as you can.

Stay safe. Stay well. We love you all!
