Out and About in New York City: waiting patiently

waiting patiently - angelic rose

Rose

is waiting patiently

to feel better

She's improving slowly

This is

not

a new photo of Rose

I took it a few years ago

before

I had the BIG camera

using an P&S

so the whole photo isnt very good

but

its still a favorite of mine

She was so sweet and patient

letting me put the bow on her

letting me snap

not just one

several

bad photos

I doctored this one

but its still not good

nevertheless

Rose, Toonman, Jack and I

wish you and yours

a lovely holiday

I'm a puddle of mush. She is just so beautiful. We'll take slow improvement over no improvement!

p.s. I think any photo with a kitty in it is a good photo.

Gosh, Virginia has her cat in a scarf and Rose is in a beautiful bow. Bibi shakes off anything I try to put on her, so no photo of her in Christmas wear.

Rose is gorgeous...

I wish you and Toonman and Rose a very happy holiday and an even happier and healthier New Year.

I love it just the same, regardless of how you say it's not a good shot.

Because it is.

And because it's Rose.
