She also has this FABULOUS jewelry Christmas tree that she made. She’s making me (well we will make it together) a pear shaped one for my living room or dining room. I CANNOT WAIT to get that baby home! Here are a couple pix of her tree:

Snowy Sunday Babblings!

It’s SNOWING!!!! AHHHH yuck! I hate the snow! Well, I don’t mind the snow or cold really, I just hate driving in snow and ice. Makes me hella nervous!

Today we’re headed to my parents house to have dinner with my sister, her son, and her new hubby. Should be a good time. My mom has her house all decorated for Christmas already and I’ll be taking my camera along to get some pictures. I’ll probably put them on my flickr site this week…or maybe even tonight, depending on when we get home.

I’m going to try to get a decent picture of the hubbs in front of my mom’s tree and I for Christmas cards too. I think we’ll be sending them out this year! We didn’t last year because we moved and things were kind of hectic!

Some big news!! My Topaz has made it to 200 days SEIZURE FREE!!! Actually today is day #202!! What an accomplishment! He’s doing GREAT too!! I’m so happy for him…and I hope it continues! We seem to be on the right track right now!

I scrapped this little page to celebrate this joyous occasion!

2 Cats – Keep Them Inside Plz!

| By | Filed Under: causes, soapbox, zoo | Leave a Comment

Better to be inside and fat than outside and flat.

Sadly, this morning as I was driving to work there were 2 dead cats that had been hit by cars in the road. Well one was on the side of the road and one was in the road.

I can’t help but wonder if there is a child pout there who’s kitty has gone missing and won’t ever be coming back.
I also can’t help but think of the fab four felines we have living in our house. The hubbs and I would be devestated if anything were to happen to one of them. I can’t imagine.

I can possible understanding having outdoor cats when you live in a rural area or have a barn or lots of acreage. But in the city? You’re putting a death wish on your kitty!

Please…keep your beloveds inside! Dogs and cats alike!
