Guess who is 1 today!

That’s right, Miss Violet.

Our tiny lion.

She had a very happy birthday today.  Getting ready for a little cleaning after a snack and drink.

A Few Leap Year Whiskers

It’s been awhile since a Whisker on Wednesday post…

We’ve got lots of things in the works.  Poor Daisy needs to see a leg specialist.  Something appears not right on the x-ray.  Maybe a piece broken off the bone.  We got an appointment at the end of March at the vet school.

Brother The Third – PQ1500s

So if you’re keeping count this is really the 4th, but I hot handed off that Viking to get the Horizon and never looked back.  It wasn’t a bad little machine, but we just didn’t bond.

I sat down and sewed on Faygo Kitty Machine… which my Mother has insisted we call them… these may [...]

RIP Faygo 1-8-2012

Ascension And if I go, while you’re still here… Know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure –behind a thin veil you cannot see through. You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait for the time when we can soar together [...]

The Lily Bath Chronicles

Poor girl needed yet another bath.  She is having issues and isn’t feeling very well right now, so not just a bath, but a dose of icky banana flavored medicine (2x a day for a week…little does she know right now).

Really? I can't believe you went and got the camera.

I'm ignoring [...]

Happy 2012!

Let’s hope it’s a good one…

I decided I only have one goal this year.  Yes, while I have a zillion things on the to-do list and many more waiting in the wings, the only thing that is an absolute must do in 2012 is to finish the Famer’s Wife top.  I’m determined to get [...]

Finishing Up 2011

So last day of the year… just a small wrap up, as I’ve been busy as ever working on projects and trying to check things off the list.

I finished two bags for friends for Christmas prezzies.

Here’s the insides… one in beige and one in gray.

I also managed to finished the [...]

Farmer’s Wife

I signed up at one of my LQS to do a Farmer’s Wife quilt along.  I had a chance to pop over to the store today to pick up supplies.  I want to do this in reproduction fabric, but alas I had none in my stash.  Poor me… it required stash enhancement.  I wanted to [...]

Updating

So I took last week off and decided to do some house upkeep.  One of the things I wanted to do was to re-paint and fix up the front.  Since we got the new white windows I found the beige to be… well… beige.

Here’s the before…

Here’s the after with some lovely red.  [...]

Library Finds

So after donating 4 bags of books last week for the library sale, I couldn’t help myself and went to the library book sale.  I had a good purge. It was time to browse. I sometimes find really useful books and for $5 for a paper grocery bag full – it’s hard to resist.

Here [...]
