Kitty Petting

At the end of January last year Tacy and I went up to Perfect Pals to socialize the cats. I left wanting nothing more than to take them all home, so instead I committed to just go up there again instead of just saying I will go up there again. Tacy helped me keep that commitment, so today we went up to Arlington to pet cats! I only took a few photos this time. Above is Tacy loving on the kitties. At Perfect Pals you normally have one or two cats on your lap at a time and about three or four surrounding you waiting for pets. They need love so much.
Here's a few unique critters I encountered...
The kitty that looks like Phantom from the Phantom of the Opera. He was a sweetie, but really wanted you to come pet him as opposed to fighting for pets.
And this funny looking kitty named Sweet Pea Princess... and below her Chuck one of my standby favorites. I couldn't help but to laugh at Sweet Pea Princess, and I gave her the name of Sweet Pea Princess squishy face... because look at that squishy face!
As always, Perfect Pals gave me a perfect day... I love petting kitties!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
