Good morning, Cat Goddess. HA! How creative is this?
What a beautiful garden and fantastic image of it, SSSCatwoman.
And I love the way you turned it into a fairy tale. Awesome work, Sister.

GOOD MORNING TROOPERS!!! You have to be one to keep up with my silliness!

The best part is if you google, "Websters Cat Goddess" guess who comes up?

Yep! I didn't make this one up! HA! Or at least not the name and info. HeeHee...

When I was a little girl, my mom always told me I was self entertained. I guess some things never change???

Have a wonderful Day, SSSKiki, Tiia, Michelle, Mumj, Jack, Ron, Ann and all else who dare come to guess...Is it Me and Fangy...or HAS "Bastet" returned???

:D
