Cranberry, being a grumpy loaf that Momma is still hiding. Poor baby 🧡

Wishing I had his confidence and dancing skills

This an old picture I took but one of my favorites. It was taken in 2014. I posted it to my Facebook and captioned it:

“So yesterday morning after I finished feeding the cats, I looked up after putting the dishes in the sink and saw this cat standing outside just sitting there and staring at the window. I went out and as soon as it saw me, it ran up to me and was desperate to get my attention. Meowing, purring, pawing at me, weaving between my legs. When I kneeled down with him, he got as close as he could and he started head-butting and kneading on me almost exactly like Bailey used to do whenever she would greet me. I sat down with him and he sat in my lap until I had to leave. As soon as I walked up the driveway and turned around, he was gone. I know it was Bailey coming back to say goodbye since I wasn't there with her when she passed- it couldn't have been a coincidence. I named the cat Romeo because he was so affectionate. Hopefully I'll get to see him again.”

Today has been such a weirdly wholesome day.

I was at the courthouse this morning to be a witness for my sister’s marriage. I had a cooler/bag with extra food that I wasn’t going to be able to take with me, and there was a homeless man sleeping outside the courthouse. Rather than throw the food away, I went over and left it for him without waking him up.

As I was walking up with the bag, a courthouse employee looked VERY concerned and asked me,

“That isn’t a bomb, is it?!”

I started laughing and said, “No, of course not; it’s food!”

Fast forward to later today. I’m on my flight and a man asks if I would mind switching seats so he could sit next to his wife. I said yes without really thinking about it, grabbed my stuff, went back to his seat, and sat down.

A few minutes later, he walks all the way back to me and hands me something. I thought it was a piece of paper or something, so I just took it without looking.

Then I realized he had handed me $60!

I immediately went, “No, no, no!” because I genuinely wasn’t expecting anything for switching seats. But he just smiled, insisted, and walked away before I could give it back.

Then the flight attendant sees what happened and goes, “ill take it if you don’t want it”

I texted my mom about it and she said, “That’s the universe giving back to you because you gave your food to that man this morning.”

I don’t know about all that, but between witnessing my sister get married, accidentally alarming a
courthouse employee with a suspicious-looking bag of food, feeding someone who needed it, and then getting randomly handed $60 for switching airplane seats…

Today’s events have certainly made me smile!

(Edit) kudos to my girlfriend who encouraged me to post this; otherwise I wouldn’t have 💛

(Edit 2) for the haters calling this out as fake:
1. We all (family) came together to a state we don’t live in
2. My gf sent me a care package (groceries) since I wasn’t feeling well
3. I packed the groceries thinking I could try to consume them before my flight
4. Realized I couldn’t, noticed a homeless person sleeping outside the courthouse and thought they would be perfect to drop the grocery bag to
5. Dropped off the bag, ceremony happened, got dropped off at the airport.

Don’t make me upload my boarding pass & courthouse pictures that’s just ridiculous lol

This morning dove and it's partner just hatched two babies couple weeks ago. The adolescents emerged from the nest over the weekend. This was one of the parents and one of the babies Monday morning at my job location in Redington Beach, Florida.

Dogs realizing what they look like is probably one of the funniest things out there 😂

Saved a monarch from a hailstorm and it made me smile:). I was on my way home from work when I pulled over in an open car wash stall because the hail seemed it could have done some damage. I look out and see this butterfly trying to escape the awful storm. Which then fell to the ground in a puddle. I immediately got out in the storm and picked it up. It stayed on my hand the whole drive home, sometimes slowly flapping its wings stationary. I found a nice place for it be released knowing that beautiful little thing will live another day. But before I did I just sat there to enjoy moment and opportunity, and it seemed like it was looking at me, grateful for being saved

"Wearing his “Catman” T-shirt, DeBacker pulled off the intricate rescue of a frightened and exhausted cat named Lola who had spent about five days trapped, likely upside down for most of that time, behind a wall in her family’s old home in the New York City suburbs."

Sweet story made me smile - even when I dislike cats!
