Cat Tree

 We have two grandkitties, Gert and Alice. I was asked to make a cat tree for their amusement. Today, I got a good start.

Update: February 23, 2021

I made a roller thingy for the kitties to go on top of the box. I also opened a third side with  a smaller kitty hole.

Mom took a look and said, "Are you going to carpet the perch and inside the box?" So, I did.

Update: 24 Feb 2021

I primed the cat tree for future painting, perhaps by grand kids. I also added a couple of cat toys hanging from the perch.

Dream On by Henry Roe

 This song was inspired by Eli, Henry Roe's little brother. Available for download and streaming on all platforms.

I transcribed it. I may have misheard some of it, but I think it is a really fine song.

Edit: I checked with Henry, and the words are corrected. Thanks, Henry.

Dream On
by Henry Roe

I’m not strong sometimes
Feel the weight I cannot breathe sometimes
So many things how come I get so tired
Mmm-mm-

Afraid to clear my eyes
‘Cause they shield me from the world outside

You’ll never get me to change my mind
Mmm-mm

So here we go
We can take it slow
Take my hand, I’m by your side
Open up your eyes to this better life
Let’s take on this roller coaster ride

Dream on
Dream on, yeah
Dream on
Dream on, yeah

I thought the fear would hide
When I trusted in the hope inside
Can’t give up I got you in my sight
In my sight

So here we go
We can take it slow
Take my hand, I’m by your side
Open up your eyes to this better life
Let’s take on this roller coaster ride

Dream on
Dream on, yeah
Dream on
Dream on, yeah

So here we go
We can take it slow
Take my hand, I’m by your side
Open up your eyes to this better life
Let’s take on this roller coaster ride

Sometimes my words get, tossed and turned and
I don’t know if you can hear me now
But if you see me, and if you hear me
Know that I will be with you, yeah

With you, oh oh oh
With you, yeah

So here we go
We can take it slow
Take my hand, I’m by your side
Open up your eyes to this better life
Let’s take on this roller coaster ride

Dream on
Oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh-oh-oh.
Dream on,
Oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh-oh-oh.

So here we go
We can take it slow
Take my hand, I’m by your side
Open up your eyes to this better life
Dream on, oh-oh-oh

I’m not strong sometimes
But that’s okay ‘cause I was born to fight
Drop my shield and open up my eyes
To you
