Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 500!!!

May 6th, 2018 by Karen 31 Comments

I approach today’s 500th installment of Sundays with Tabs with a sense of pride coupled with bittersweet melancholy. Tabs and I have spent an average of 2-3 hours working together on these posts each week for more than 10 years. That’s literally more than 1,000 hours!

As silly as these posts are, I’ll cherish the time I’ve spent creating them with Tabs for the rest of my life, because why not? Life is serious, and there’s always going to be something important going on. All of us face important decisions and challenges every single day — lost jobs, car repairs, breakups, work conflicts, overdue bills, taxes, health scares, financial difficulties, emergency room visits, sudden illnesses…

Nothing lasts forever. Everything is temporary. Change is the only constant, but I believe that it’s the little things that keep us going, like spending time with your cat and sharing pictures of him wearing a leather collar with a pink bow, a glittery “500” and a flower on it with people on the Internet.

Thank you for coming along with me on this marvelous ride so far.

Here’s a look at what Tabs wore on this morning’s patrol around the neighborhood, followed by a brief kitty modeling career retrospective. 🙂

    I absolutely love the L’eau de Chloe picture with you and Tabs suspended from balloons!! That made me giggle. It’s also a reminder that I need to track down a bottle of L’eau de Chloe. I love that scent. I should have bought it a long time ago. You can’t get it in stores anymore though. I will probably snag a bottle off eBay one of these days. Here’s something I discovered though. The new Tiffany fragrance that came out in 2017 smells similar to L’eau de Chloe, at least to my nose. Maybe a Tiffany perfume purchase is in my near future? LOL!!

    You’re right–time goes by so fast. Seems like just last year you were pregnant and now she’s becoming her own person. Connor Claire is growing and exploring as Tabs starts slowing down. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

    I really look forward to ‘Sundays With Tabs’ each week. As for that retrospective, I just don’t know how you’d pick a favourite! That one MAC Movie Magic is excellent because Tabs looks so fabulous in that movie reel. He really has star quality and is incredibly photogenic – what a guy!

    Here’s to many more episodes from an internationally loved figure! XXXXXXXXX

    Your photos of Tabs are fantastic & so creative. He brings a smile every Sunday& altho you are so busy with your business & daughter, he’s still going strong! Not retired quite yet I hope.
