  • Kittens with forever homes!

    two happy kittens

    One month ago I was still depressed about losing my two pets…but I decided that giving a forever home to some kittens this winter would help all of us be happier.

    And we are !!

    Here they are – one month after that adoption.

     

    Comments? Thank you – and I'll read them to Sassy and Smokie 🙂

  • Wake Up – I Want to Play!

    I still miss Sheba but having adopted these 2 young kittens was a good thing for me and for them…It's been many decades since I have had kittens this young – and never 2 at the same time.

    Now I know how my friends with twins felt with two beings often on two different schedules.

     

    Comments? Thank you!

  • It’s Organize Your Home Day! [LOL]

    Apparently today and next Friday are Organize Your Home Day according to BlogEnergizer's calendar.

    Heck it would take me more than the 2 days and the week in between to organize mine – if it were even possible.

    I am the type of mind that can't follow a simple organizing system for more than a short time.  Just looking through my file systems, including the folders on my computer, will tell you that.   But with Spotlight on my Mac and a very good memory – I can usually find what I need.  And when I can't –  I can replace.

    Luckily I am in a small house now so it's kind of hard to lose anything unless it falls in the river – but in past lives I lost hammers so often I owned 5 of them [yes I found them all after a while]

    My kitchen is the nearest-to-organized spot in my house – well except for the closet with glasses, storage containers and non-perishable foods.  But that has doors that can be closed so no one knows and besides it's not really in the kitchen

    So my hat's off to those of you who can love a day called Organize Your Home Day and make it work in your life.

    Me? I'll just stick with buying hammers ;(

    Comments?  Thanks.

  • Coincidences? Not to me!

    my "baby" got married         This "baby" got married today!

    I often say that I don't believe in coincidences – I believe that all things are related even if they may not seem so to others.

    For example – my son got married today – to his long time g.f. – presided over by a judge at the marriage court in Chicago.  [No one there but them as they will do a ceremony and reception in Oregon this summer]

    Today also marks the 7th anniversary of my buying my house in Portland Oregon!

    My son was with me here when I put in the offer but had gone back to Chicago soon after and I am not sure he knows the closing date. [Everyone in the neighborhood knows as it was the day before the blizzard of 2004.]

    If I had not moved to Portland, he would not have been here to visit me one summer and meet his now-wife…so no coincidence that the dates match – it was already in the "scheme of the universe."

    There are so many more universe schemes at play but those are grist for another mill – or another post…

  • You Can Take This House With You

    Living in a floating home has some benefits. You CAN actually take your house with you…..

    only if you can find a new place to moor it [and that's getting rarer by the day.]


    This short clip shows 2 floating homes going to new spots….

    Enjoy – and please comment below – thank you
