My cats

I am a cat person.  If I didn't have a husband and 5 kids, I'm sure I could easily become a crazy cat woman lol...

This is my Princess...although I do attempt to keep her out of my craft room, my husband and kids don't fully understand 'keep the door closed so Princess doesn't get in!' and more often then not, I come home from work to find this...Princess laying on on project boxes on the floor!  Don't worry, I don't keep customers project boxes on the floor!  These are personal projects (I think this was when I was making my sons Valentine's Day cards)

Princess
She knows she isn't allowed in here, but that just makes her want in my room even more!  As you can tell, she is big, fluffy and beautiful!

Princess
Look at that beautiful face!!! 

While I do try to make every effort to keep her fur out of my packages, I'm sure I do miss some occasionally and I am very sorry about that.

We have another cat named Tomika.  She is 12 years old.  She is very anti-social and hides in our basement most of the time.  She was a rescue cat who never fully got over her nervousness.  We adore Tomika and try to bring her up upstairs occasionally, but she often just runs back down to her room (yes, we set a room for her where we go down to visit her)

Tomika
This was the best picture of her that I could find...I found her hiding between the fences in our back years...when she's outside, she also hides under plants.

We also had 2 stray males.
Frank and Ciaran
As you can tell, 'Frank', the adult male was a very loving cat!  We adored him, but unfortunately, we couldn't keep him because our girls didn't like him, even after he got neutered.  Several nights I was woken up by screeching and fighting...thankfully, the vet knew of a wonderful family who adores him as much as we did!

Frank Jr
It was quite obvious to us that our precious Frank was this little guys dad.  This little kitty had a wonderful and loving temperament.  We had him for a few days, I tried to find out if he had a family though facebook, online classifieds, posters and talking to parents at school...after a few days, we made an appt to have him neutered.  Unfortunately, a few days before his appt, he was sick. He threw up a few times, but I wasn't too concerned, until I found him on our basement floor.  I thought he had died over night, but my husband went down and found out he was still alive.  I rushed him to the vet who gave him IVs and warmers to help warm him up.  After a full day of treatment, he was showing some signs of improvement, but at 4pm that day, he took a turn for the worst.  He looked so sad, and sick and I couldn't bear to let him suffer any more, so I made the decision that the best thing was to put him down.  I only had him for a week, but I was devastated.

Snow Day!

It is a Snow Day here in Southern Ontario!  My kids may be off school, but my husband still has to work today and I have to work this evening...it was so bad, my husband walked to work and I will most likely walk (or take a bus) as well, unless things get cleaned up a bit out there!  Driving in this weather isn't worth it,  I live close enough to work it takes me LESS time to walk then it does to clean off my car, warm it up and battle the elements, traffic, and other drivers.

There is nothing better to do on a snowy day then to craft!  I have started many of my orders this past weekend and here are some sneak peeks!!

It's Saturday!!

This sun is shining!  The sun is shining!   It makes me so happy to have the sun shinning through my Craft Studio windows!!

But, it is very deceiving.   The sky is very grey and it is so cold out!  BRRRRR...I do not like cold and snow, I was not ment to live in Southern Ontario!  I crave sunshine and warmth!!

I am staying warm and cozy in my Craft Studio finding the perfect colours for custom Baby Shower Tags and Cupcake Toppers Today!  I also cut out pieces for Mickey Mouse and Snow White Banners and I hope to get a start on an Airplane Party! I have lots to do to keep me busy!!  Crafting on a cold day is just what I need to beat these January Blues

This is only a SMALL sample of the paper I horde...I really should stop buying paper and just use what I have, but that will not happen!!  I do need to start using it, some of this paper I've had for at least 6 years!  It's just so pretty I do not want to part with it!  I'm even worse with patterned paper...

My son is helping me sort through colours, his colour choices are....interesting...at least he enjoys spending time with me while I'm working :)


My Cute Assistant :)

I hope everyone is having a nice, relaxing Saturday and the weather is nice where ever you are!  And I am extremely jealous of those who are having nicer weather then I am today!
