The Cat Days of Summer

By -



Not much has changed, just living the dream with my boyz. Everett is getting bigger and smarter and sillier by the day. One of the things that I wish for my son, is not only will he grow to be happy and healthy but a big dork like his parents. I think he is well on his way. He has this toy monkey that hangs above on his playmat and he laughs and "talks" to that thing like it's his BFF. Unbelievably hilarious.
We've been having heat wave after heat wave here and I don't mind a bit. Pretty soon it will be cold, snowy and gray. YUCK. This heat wave just makes us more eager to find a house with a pool... someday.
I've been keeping busy as a "house wife" (such a silly title) by baking, raspberry picking, decorating, making curtains, pillow covers, and creating some artwork. (I'll post those things in the upcoming days) It's a tough job but i'm always up for a challenge.
And finally, my little cute house as of tomorrow morning 7/28 will no longer be my house when I hand my keys over to the new owners. I have nothing but happy, fun and wonderful memories there and I wish the new owners find the same happiness there as I did.
OH! My cousin Kelly and I are going to a Cat Performance Show!! The Acro-Cats also known as the Rock Cats are coming to town and we are going to be front and center for little kitties frolicking about, playing instruments and doing tricks. I swear I am not making this up!! It's going to be purrrfectly amazing!

That cat show looks like a hoot. My kids and cat youtube videos are best friends, I have a feeling they would adore that performance!

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts. This weekend I spied this AWESOME clothespin wreath on Pinterest which lead me to  Hambly Screen Prints Blog . Not only is it a fantastic blog with fun projects, it's also an online store full of the coolest scrapbook\crafting supplies. If you haven't been to Hambly Screen Prints...  GO NOW ! The clothespin wreath was so fun and easy to make!  Supplies you need: Wooden clothespins scrapbook papers Washi tape (or decorative tape) You can buy washi tape at Hambly, Amazon.com, etsy, Michaels or most craft stores) Glue Thick cardboard for circle (or Michaels sells pre-made circle forms) Felt to cover cardboard (although I skipped that step) Decorate your clothespin however you like.

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
