Beginning a blog seems a daunting task for me. I'm chatty as can be, but what do I basically say to myself? That appears to be the jist of Blogging. So Off I go. Blogging away.
My kittie cat Bella, loves to be outside. She also likes to raid my quilting supplies. Currently, her favorite notion to steal is my Emory Filled Strawberry. I use it to remove sticky stuff from my straight pins, and to remove rust, or sharpen.
Fortunately, My little doll baby can't hurt herself on this borrowed toy. My other cat, Luna, who is affectionately called "LuLu" on the other hand was fascinated by a Christmas Gift I received from one of my fellow Honeybee Quilt Guild members. She made a beautiful felted wook Pin Cushion, with a Tatted Doiley on top. (think Pumpkin Shaped).
Lu, would grab this pin cushion everynight. Unfortunately, it was full of pins. So I would stuff it under things in my sewing basket, shove it under the free arm of my machine, lay fabric over it, you name it she would find it and play with it at night. I'd wake to find it somewhere in the house. It was like "Where's Waldo" with my pin cushion. Fortunately, she would most often bring it to my room.
I finally gave up and took the pins out and just gave it to her. She never played with it again. Go Figure? I think she was playing with me. She is such a cool cat. The Dog however, promptly tore it to pieces. Pin cushion all gone. Now she has decided that the scraps from my sewing can that I keep next to my machine, make wonderful decorations for the floor. She drops them all over the Sewing Room, hallways, kitchen, and my bedroom. Drives my Hubby Crazy. I refer to her decorations as "the results of LuLu's current interior design".
She also likes to adorn my sink in the master bathroom. If it's hot inthe house, she curls up in the sink. Or If I'm in there, she keeps my company. Lately, she will follow me from room to room. Since I haven't been feeling well lately, she lays with me on the bed, "just out of reach" for a cuddle. Neither of my girls are lap kitties. They are very tollerant, when we grab them and hold them for about 30 seconds. After that, they turn into wiggle worms. Who knew cats were such fun.
Bella and The dog Bisquette are buddies. When we got the cats the idea was that we would adopt sisters, so they would play with each other and leave my dog alone. He's going on 10 years old. So much for saving the dog from a kitten's playful energy. Bell decided that he was good fun and the two of them run around and play. She taught him to Clean her hears, he taught her to come running when he jumps up to greet someone. Whenever we arrive home, both the dog and Bell greet us at the door. It's a hoot. He also licks his paw like a cat and cleans his coat. Silliest thing I've seen in a long time. So I have a dog, who acts like a cat, and a cat that acts like a dog. She also eats his dog food instead of the cat food we put down. Geeeze!
So now you have been introduced to my babies.
I also have two adult children, who are in college, but I am undecided as to whether I am going to include them in my blog. I'll have to discuss this with them before I share their life with anyone. So for now, I say Live, Love, Laugh...and eat chocolate!
bye-bye.
