I'm Kicking 2015 to the Curb and Ringing in 2016 in the Cats of the CB Calendar
Hi and Happy Monday All! It's Cody, and I am hoping you are all recovered from the Christmas festivities this past weekend, if you don't celebrate Christmas, well, it's "festivus for the rest of us!!"
Mom and I were looking at our blogging schedule (or the lack thereof) for the next week or so, and we were pawing through our Cats of the CB 2015 Calendar (where I made an appearance in February of 2015 ), and now....I am featured this week in the NEW Cats of the CB 2016 Calendar, kicking 2015 to the curb, and ringing in 2016. Depending on which calendar you are using, (the old 2015 calendar includes the entire month of January 2016 and most of the first week of February), you just might miss me! Anyway, here I am.......
Have you ordered your Cats of the CB 2016 Calendar? I sure hope so, we would be lost without our daily calendar/planner, and we thank Mom Paula for all of her hard work putting these calendars together. Order your calendar now if you haven't already!

in a collage form....
so....not all of the names
of who they are from
can be seen, which I wasn't
thinking about when I did it.
The collages above are MUCH
wider than how they appear here
