CATS - KIDS

ANNA AND LUDWIG STARTED OUT CUDDLING AND LUDWIG WAS VERY HAPPY!

THENNNNN,

SHE STARTED MESSING WITH HIM. SHE JUST CANT RESIST. SHE IS BLOWING INTO HIS FUR HERE. YOU CAN SEE FROM HIS FACE HOW MUCH HE LOVES IT, HEHEE.

THEN SHE MOVED ON TO MAKING WEIRD NOISES AND FACES AT HIM.

HE TURNED HIS FACE AWAY AND LOOKED TO ME FOR HELP. I WAS TO BUSY TAKING PICS :}. SORRY LUDDY!

YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN HIS FACE HERE. COMPLETELY PIST OFF,LOL.

WOULD YOU LOOK AT HOW LONGGG THIS CAT IS, WOW!! HE IS A GOOD PATIENT CAT!

FOOD SHOPPING AND FUN STUFF LIKE THAT TODAY. :}

                   
You could pray for 1,000 nights, visualize for 1,000 days, and give thanks for 1,000 things, but it's when you physically prepare the way, dear - no matter how silly, tiny, or futile your efforts may seem - that 1,000 miracles will find you. 
 TAKE SOME STEPS TO MOVE THOSE HOPES AND DREAMS ALONG ;].

WE HAD A NICE LONG RELAXING WEEKEND.

SPENT SOME TIME ON PINTEREST. I KNOW SOME OF YOU HAVENT' TRIED IT YET BUT YOU REALLYYYYY SHOULD. ITS VERY RELAXING AND FULL OF GREAT IDEAS ON DECORATING, RECIPES, OH JUST ABOUT ANYTHING!!

             YOU SAVE ALL YOUR FAVS ONTO YOUR OWN BOARDS FOR FUTURE USE AND THE SITE IS SOOOO EASY! THEY ACTUALLY RUN YOU THROUGH THE WHOLE THING TILL YOU GET THE HANG OF IT SO DONT BE INTIMIDATED.
                                                         
                            SO MY SUMMER GIRLS ARE PROBABLY FREAKING OUT ON THIS CHILLY MORNING BUT I LOVVVVVVVVVE IT!!!! THIS IS THE WEATHER THAT MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE!!! I CALL IT SWEATSHIRT WEATHER. CRISP,COOL,JUST PERFECT TO MOVE YOUR BODY!!!
                   GOT SOME RUNNING AND THEN IM HOPING TO HIT UP ANNAS ROOM AND AT LEAST MAKE A DENT???
 HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE!!

Here is Anna's new fall hoodie. Yes, in some things she does take after her mother,lol!

Even squishy,sweet, angel dogs have a tough guy face. Here is Freds. He is in MY face with a small bone, growling and daring me to take it. I love this face!!! I love Fred!!

So I got darkkk purple paint for Anna's bedroom walls and gloss black spray paint for all her furniture (none of it matches right now)

and we got sheer long black curtains for her double windows. The trim and moldings will be white. Her room is small with rounded walls that curve right into the ceiling so the room will be dark (which she wants) but We will pick a bright light accent color for accessories. I have a LOT of painting to do  :{.

She better LOVE it,lol!!!

Have a great day everyone!!! :}

Its the Little things

Today's joy..,My new geeky Halloween t-shirt from target. Cheap,comfy and soooo me :}. It makes me sooo happy that I didn't even kill Rex for pooping on my BED this morning!!! Now that's HAPPY,lol!!!

Have a great day everyone!!!

The NEWSSSSSS

                                                       I popped the TV on this afternoon and the news was on. Within seconds I was pummeled with people doing HORRIBLE stuff to other people. It instantly makes me sick to my stomach and makes me angry and baffled. Hence the below sayings ;]

That all being said, I remind myself that..

So I will remember the above because

                                         

                    Anger, fear, sadness, over things we cant control just sucks the joy out of our day!!!

Now this below saying is just because I thought it was HYSTERICAL!!!! I wonder how many people would love to wear this shirt quite frequently ;]

Just been cleaning up a mass of vines and branches that came down a few windy days ago. As a result I am VERY itch!!! I'm really hoping there was no poison Ivy in that mess :O ????

Hmmmmm, there is a familiar scent wafting through my living room right now. REX,YOU ARE A BAD BOY,UGHhhhh!!

PS finally getting back to writing,Yippeeeeeeee!!!

If anyone is interested in seeing what I have wrote so far, just throw me a comment or email and I will try and figure out how to send it to you. Just remember, I willllllllll be revising it yet again,lol.

Better go clean up the poop now :/

pss. Hope your all having a GREAT day!!! ;]

Homemade Goodness

Made a big pot of chicken soup yesterday. Me and Anna hit it hard and the rest got jarred up and is going to pop. There is just something about homemade goods in a mason jar. I could just look at it for hours :}. COZY!

My sister in law Courtney sent this to me. Think she know me a little,lol.

Speaking of Halloweennnnn, my cuz Joe made a wood cut out of a owl and gave it to me. I am thinking of painting him to match the above pic.

Okay, some running around with Bella today. Good stuff, thankfully.

Oh and by the way, was yesterday the best weather day EVERRRRR or what :}. Wish we could have that everyday!!!

Today's not bad either so try and enjoy it some everyone ;] .
