Fluff


A member of my cozy house passed away this morning. Fluff was my special lovey dovey kitty. She loved to sit on my lap and be petted. She will be missed.

birthdays and anniversaries







Well in my cozy house we have had birthdays and anniversaries. March was the month that we brought Mr. Stinks home from the pound in 1998. He was an adult kitty so I'm not sure how old he is. (my tuxedo kitty) April 26th was Jake's 3rd birthday.(my chocolate lab) The month of May, three years ago, was when we rescued Squeeks in the middle of a terrible storm with straight line winds of 70 miles per hour. She has never wanted to go outdoors again. She has only left the house for vet appointments. She came to us an adult, complete with expecting a new litter of kittens. So I am not sure how old she is either. But Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary to my babies.

Max Equations




I still don't have my new memory card for my camera yet so I will use these photos from Max Equations............ I love linen and natural fiber clothing. I found this company and have ordered a few things. I absolutely love the clothing and love wearing it. I just ordered these two linen tops/tunics. The top one I ordered in lupine, a lovely blue and had them hand paint a design on the bottom. The second one I ordered in the rust color shown without the added painting. http://maxequations.com This is a husband and wife team and everything is done by hand, love it!

TEA







I am on such a tea kick lately. I am in love with tea! Here is my latest find, Cardamon Cinnamon by Republic of Tea....................... I am so low on beads, time to restock, but I managed to have enough to put these two Goddess bracelets together that will be mailed off to a friend. :-)

Snowy Day Beading




I finished the wand on the very left today. I had some good smelling candles burning and sipped chai tea and Jake napped with his head on my lap, while beading. The cute thing about Jake, he was having all kinds of dreams today. He was very verbal and he was smacking his lips and eating something in his dreams today. He has been on a diet since Dec. 8th and I think he was dreaming about eating his beloved cheese! (sweet Jake)

More Freezing Rain and Snow



Today is another cold day. It is rainy and snowy and just a cold mess. I guess that it is to start snowing hard later on and we will have another five inches of snow or so. So I have finished chores, housework, errands and I don't have work today, so I will now settle in for some beading. I have some nice chai tea brewing and today I will practice my "lightening" pattern with the peyote stitch. I haven't done it in years, but I'm sure I will pick it right up again. I've posted pictures of the wands I did last week, they are just in a different light. There is also the small abalone talisman that I just finished a few days ago. I keep making these things and accumulating them, but I have no idea what I will do with all of them!
