These patterned paper cut outs are my lazy way of making fast doodle art. Animal fur is difficult to paint with their varying shades and hues of colors. If you fancy this type of paper art, more can be seen at https://artmater.com/a-to-z-cats-in-catober-2026-2/

(1) Thanks for the bloggers who take time and care to provide feedback.
(2) Grateful to be generally happy with life.
(3) Gratitude that October has convenient blog prompts.
(4) Thankful for my family at home, who ran the errands for food, acessories, drug store, bakery, 2 other stores, supermarket, and B.K. All in one trip at the same mall. It took 2 1/2 hours but all was done.
(5) Great to enjoy a double filet take-out.
(6) I appreciate my weekend editions of newspapers. I used to spend around 1 1/2 hours traveling to the store to buy them and bring them home. Then I took the plunge to sign up for subscription and now the vendor delivers to my letter box.
(7) Thanks for leisure reading.
(8) Thanks for youtube videos once in a while to break the monotony.
(9) I made it to Thursday!
(10) Thanks be to God, alleluia, alleluia.

That’s a very nice cat doodle, and I like the list! 👍
Thanks, Aptivi.
ok… Grat #9? get that far (in the week) then all that’s left is Friday and Saturday (which for me tends to be less stressful)
Grat #7… ayiieee for whatever reasons I have been getting less of that than I used to (Full Disclosure: maybe 10 minutes reading in bed then out like a light)
Book Recommendation: “The Wizard’s Butler’ by Nathan Lowell hard to describe but a very satisfying read
have a good week
Thanks for the book pick. I looked up Lowell… impressive.
Psalm 103 is such a joyful hymn of praise and thanksgiving.
Thanks, Frank.
Being a cat person, I adore these guys!!!
Hadn’t thought about paper cutouts.
Psalm 103 is a blessing, I say those first verses when life wants to get me down.
I enjoyed your list and pray you have a blessed week.
Thank you! I’ll be right over at https://egginmypocket.blogspot.com/
Thanks Mimi!
Oh I like your doodles!
The list isalso nice.
Thanks Reelika.
Sorry I am so late in reading your TToT this week, I don’t know where the time goes and now another week’s TToT is upon us…
The weekend papers are only a ten-minute walk for me but I don’t let myself buy one if I haven’t managed to go through the last week’s one…
I am reading “The Ministry of Utmost Happiness” by Arundhati Roy which is a slightly magical realism look at where India has been heading in recent years – a wonderful writer…
I now watch YouTube whilst having my breakfast – shorts fit the bill but sometimes I watch something longer, like a history of Fairport Convention who invented English Folk Rock – in 10 minute installments lol
Hope you have had a good week, Cai!
Thank you for the recommendations. I read A. Roy’s The God Of Small Things some years ago but I didn’t appreciate it.
This week was great for removing a difficult situation.
