Cat show!

A few days ago I decided to enter my 2 kittens in a cat show- the show is next weekend. :) It all started when my kittens' breeder asked if I'd bring them to a show in November with her. There are about 10 known Nebelungs in the UK- my 2 boys, Nelly, 5 my breeder has, and 2 a new breeder has. The breed has an amazing temperament, that is what makes them unique and worth having. They are very good companions, sociable and friendly, intelligent and loving, deeply attached to their families and to one person in particular. They are loyal and want to be a part of family life.

So to prepare my 2 for November, I looked around for local cat shows. There was one in 3 weeks time, so I entered them in it! I've never been to a cat show, or seen one, so its an adventure. :) Nebelung friends inEurope have helped me via facebook, its been great! If the boys do well it will increase the visibility of the breed and breeders. Will keep you posted. :)

Amidst the fun and excitement of the weekend, I could use some pr. I have a friend in my life who is rather difficult to deal with. They have gotten worse over time, to the point that nothing that I respond with helps. No reasoning works, and their thinking has become confused and twisted over time. There are difficult circumstances involved, and they are determinedly set against me no matter what I say or do. It's hard to just give up trying to get them to see reason, but I think I am getting to the point where I don't have a lot of options left. My patience is nearing its end, my desire to respond gracefully is rapidly fading, and I have just about had it. Please pr for the Father to work in their heart, to show me his path, and for an abundance of grace and mercy.

Olympic torch!

I got to hold an olympic torch today!! There's been an enormous torch relay going on here in Britain to get ready for London 2012 in late July. This is a 4 day weekend here, because of the Diamond Jubilee (Queen Elizabeth II's 60th year of reign) with block parties and tea parties in the streets, and a floatilla of boats down the Thames. It's a real weekend for pageantry, something the British do best!

I wanted to take the ferry to Liverpool, a 10min ride across the Mersey River. Just so happened that the Olympic Torch relay people were taking a ferry too, and were all casually hanging out in front of the terminal! I couldn't believe it! I asked if I could take a photo with the torch, and they let me do it! So here I am:




It's such an exciting weekend, I'm going to catch some of the Jubilee celebrations Monday in Liverpool, then maybe London on Tuesday for the party there. :)

Congrats Elizabeth II, 60 years ago you became queen. Gd bless you in the years to come.

Do my Living Proof friends remember her coronation? Tell me about it, I really want to hear!
