A Nice Place In The Sun: 7/1/14

Happy Feline Friday!

I love this photo because it symbolizes friendship, which I value deeply-

This post is part of a hilarious meme from my dear friend, Sandee's blog, C omedy Plus.
The meme originated from Sandee's friend, Steve, from Burnt Food Dude.

I know I'm supposed to post one photo of my favorite feline, who is my cat Simon,

but I thought this photo befitting since it's from a cherished friends blog.

I do, in fact have a feline, who will not forgive me if I do not post his photo, so the photo below is my notorious cat, Simon, with an ego as large as the mighty Mississippi-

Simon hates for me to write, so he sits on my computer chair thinking he will divert my attention from the computer to him. I know it sounds crazy, but it you own a cat you know how manipulate these little creatures can be.

For example, look in his eyes, and you'll see the skillful way he tries to emotionally black mail me.

(He doesn't realize that if wasn't for the computer, I wouldn't be able to buy his special CAT FOOD.)

Thank you for stopping by A Nice Place In The Sun and reading my contribution to Feline Friday!

Stop by Comedy Plus and see the adorable photo she has posted today. I do not want to ruin it for you, but she has posted one of the best feline photo's I've seen in a long time.

Have a fabulous day!

Favorite quotes-

In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since.

Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”'

F. Scott Fitzgerald. (Lines from The Great Gatsby)
"A Southerner Talks Music"

Mark Twain

"A book must be the ax for the frozen sea inside us."

Franz Kafka

An author values a compliment even when it comes from a source of doubtful competency.
- Mark Twain in Eruption

"I like a good story well told. That is the reason I am sometimes forced to tell them myself"

About Ann...

I'm a professional humorist/children's writer, mother, friend, and cat owner, and the author of A Nice Place In The Sun. I write situational humor most of the time, but actually, there is no telling what I might turn out.

I'm writing my first novel for adults, and I have children's book manuscripts, as well as short stories, traveling through the writers market. Most of my online work is posted on A Nice Place In The Sun, although I am published in local magazines, and continue to work toward traditional publication.
