My crazy husband and sister-in-law!

Well you be the judge. I think they are crazy. My husband shaved his head a bit ago, and now likes the look. Actually, don't tell him, but so do I! And now with my sister-in-law going to have surgery on her arm and hand, she did it again (yes, she has done this in the past). This time at least it makes sense, since working with her hair with her arms after surgery is going to be a problem - but they are still crazy!

Here they both are:



And here is Kathy alone:



And here is Harry alone:



Like I said, you be the judge - crazy or not?

Blinkies! I finally learned how to make them!

I am thrilled beyond words - I finally learned how to make blinkies. Thanks to Jazzl for her tutorial. And thanks to Lori for her blanks. Here are my first attempts at blinkies. You can see Lori's great stuff at her blog Doodles from my Noodle

This first one is from the tutorial from Jazzl - I need to get her link.




The next two are from blinkie templates by Lori - her site link is above. Thanks Lori for the inspirations for me to make these.

The Merry Maines - A Shaggy Cat Story

I just read the most incredible cat book! While I wholeheartedly have enjoyed the Warrior Series - this book is more from the home and hearth. It touched me deep within my heart of hearts. I adore cats and have always felt that they are communicating. The Merry Maines - A Shaggy Cat Story - put the words out there for the cats and for the cat lovers as well. I deeply appreciated the cat knowledge as well as the sheer fun of the story. Bad guys, good guys, and that was just within the cattery! If you have a love of cats, books, mystery, fun, anything you will find it in this book. A sheer pleasure from the first page. I can't wait for the sequel to see what the gang has been up to! I give it 5 PAWS UP!!!!



You can go to Amazon - Garnet Quinn to get the book. In some places they have spelled her name as Gartnet Quinn.


Now, I'll tell you a little secret.....shhhhhh....don't tell anyone.....I know the author!!! Garnet Quinn - great lady - and an all around Cat Lover Extraordinaire!!!

I'm back and trying to post faithfully. Two New Layouts!

Hi there Merry Christmas Eve! I love today, relaxing and all the family around. Well usually. I am missing Dad today. He is in SC and I am in TN - not far but too far for my needs and wants today.

Well I've got two layouts to share today. The first one is from my friend over at Scrapping 'Til Dawn. She makes the greatest layouts for me to play with in PSP. I haven't visited her in a while, but I did these pay few days and grabbed some new things. I can't wait to share them layouts. The template for this one is called Broken Arm. She is doing a Boo-Boo series! I LOVE IT! I moved some things around from her original template, to make it work for what I wanted to do with the little boy for the tag. I know she is happy when people make it there own - and I love working with her stuff! So easy and fun to play! Here is the first one:



And the second one I have lost the link to her site. As soon as I find it, I'll update this page. She makes layouts only for tags. So this one was just in my heart as soon as I saw it! Hope it makes you smile too!



That's it for today! And I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Kathy and her Supervisor

My sister in law, Kathy, helps a lady that breeds Maine Coon Cats. Well this picture is a perfect example of what Kathy does. She was preparing to give the first shots to the newest litter of kittens and she had a supervisor! Miss SnowBerry decided to see what Kathy was doing. She checked out each needle, each bottle as it was put down and even sniffed Kathy's hand at one point. We think Kathy must have done well, because SnowBerry didn't object and watched intently. If only all supervisors were so quiet and so adorable!

Kathy's Halloween Costume

Now some of you know this but my crazy sister in law, Kathy, works at a Hospital in the cafeteria as a Cook. She really enjoys working there. Well one of the things they can do is dress up for Halloween! So.....of course....Kathy did! She dressed up as a Zombie Doctor. She wore a green surgery smock, and we spray painted her hair green and SPIKED it! She carried Calla Lillies and blacked her face. When she got to work she was going to put on a mask. We took a few pictures of her here on the couch! She looks so cool in person. Hope you all laugh as much as we did. And we all hope her co-workers and anyone who sees her in the Kitchen laughs too!





Happy Halloween!

Spaghetti, Meatballs and an Update!

What a title that is! GIGGLING Well I have been in and out of it recently. Lots of pain, having doctor appointments all over the place and such. And I got laid off from my job! So things are weird right now. But even with all of that I have to play sometimes! So I made Spaghetti and Meatballs Cupcakes!!! Here are some pictures of them!





They are from a book called Hello Cupcake you can visit their website at http://www.hellocupcakebook.com - how wonderful the recipes, ideas, everything is there! It was so much fun making them and now I get to show them off too!

I'll try to be a better blogger but it isn't easy recently - so forgive me if I am gone for bits.
