A couple of weeks ago our friends, The Canadian Cats Shoko and Kali nominated us for the Happiness Tag. We are happy to accept and sincerely thank Kali and Shoko for selecting us as a blog that makes them happy. In accepting we have some responsibilities.
List five things that make us happy:
1. Vacationing on the island of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands
2. Family: Tom and kitties
3. Cycling and Swimming
4. Friends: both personal and blogging
5. Catio (Kitties Blue choice)
Name five favorite songs that make us happy:
This was very difficult. So many songs make me happy, and some of my favorite make me melancholy and nostalgic. I love some of those just as much, but these five always make me happy.
California Girls – Beach Boys
In Your Arms – Quito Rymer
Young Turks – Rod Stewart
Whenever God Shines His Light – Van Morrison
You Never Can Tell – Aaron Neville
Admit to adoring five bloggers who make us happy and notify those bloggers:
All the blogs we read and follow make us happy, which made it particularly difficult to select just five. But it should be evident why we have selected these five.
Friends Furever – The blog of Mauricio’s wife, Allie, (and housemates Ellie and Raz)
Kitty Cat Chronicles – The blog of Astrid’s husband, Sampson, (as well as five other kitties, dog Lucy and the Sugar Gliders)
onespoiledcat– Best pal Sammy’s blog (home of the Tuesday Teaser and Thoroughly Poetic Thursday)
McGuffy’s Reader – Annie is an amazingly talented writer and poet who has become a great friend. (As a bonus her household includes two woofies and four kitties.)
Bailey Boat Cat – Bailey is an honorary Kitty Blue
We are tagging these five blogs to complete the Happiness Tag challenge and hope each will accept and complete the task of naming those things which make them happy.
Once again, the kitties and I want to express our gratitude to Kali and Shoko for selecting us for the Happiness Tag!

I am both honoured and humbled. YOU always make me happy, my dear friend. I think we are kindred spirits in so many ways. I wish we lived close to each other; I really do. But, I am thankful for you nonetheless.
I will accept this “task”. Please be patient with me, though, while I prepare the post. I love your answers and will have to give mine some thought. I am gearing up for a nicer routine, as Summer turns to Autumn. I need to get back to writing and sharing. I miss it.
Thank you for your friendship. I truly mean that. You rock. Hugs.
P.S. I have nominated you for The Sunshine Blogger Award. It is on my post today. Love you.
