Feline Friday

 Who can resist this sweet doll baby?

 Here is her “business in the front, party in the back” pose. I love it when she sits like this!

Feline Friday: Yoga with Lilian

 Did you know that Lily is into yoga? Whenever she hears the slap of the mat against the floor, she comes running!

She’s still working on her yoga skills.  Her favorite is the resting meditation pose. She’s got that one mastered! 😸

If you come over to visit, watch where you step! LOL

While I have had another crazy busy week, it seems that Lily has not! Let's take a look at how she's been spending her days.

First there was this...

And then she rediscovered the back of the loveseat for optimum fall viewing...

Then she did some of her posing...

Now back to the loveseat...

Her week included a partial face-grab, one of my favorites!

With all of these naps to take, I guess Lily was busy in her own way!

 You can always tell when the weather gets colder! Lily enjoys being swaddled in old baby blankets and they frequently ride along when she gets up from her nap. 

 

It’s just the cutest thing ever!

 Maybe I've gone "round the bend" but I can't help but think there are some points of similarity here. 😍

 

Ok, if not a baked potato with sour cream, perhaps something like this? LOL

The last few weeks have been super busy for me, as we're getting ready for some big online classes at Memory Bound. As you can see, Lily is not at all helpful with kit assembly!

 She likes to be near me but will rarely stay awake to see what I'm doing. I guess she finds all of this crafty stuff pretty boring!

 

Actually, she must find MUCH of what I do pretty boring, as she spends most of our time together asleep!

But awake or asleep, I still love to have her company!

 

 

Feline Friday with Rory

In the years since our daughter and son-in-law have been in Texas, we've learned about these little lizard creatures. During the summer months, they're ALL around the house -- often on the windows, as you see here. They can even change colors to match their surroundings!

Along with birds, squirrels, and butterflies, these little guys provide endless hours of entertainment for Rory.

And if one happens to sneak inside the house, as they like to do when the weather gets cooler, watch out! Rory is a fierce protector of the home turf and will carry those lizards around to show them who's boss! 

At least when she's awake! 😉 

 

Feline Friday

 Lily has become quite the messy eater in her senior years. She pushes food off of her plate and onto her placemat where is sticks and dries. In fact, I became concerned that she might have a problem with her teeth so I had the vet check them at her last visit. Thankfully, her toofers are fine!   

 

So I switched her from a plate to a bowl in an effort to keep the food more confined. Now her little nose gets totally wet when she eats. I'm not sure we've solved the messy food station problem, but she sure looks adorable!

Feline Friday: Best Day Ever!

 Lily loves Refill Day! It's the day when Meowmy puts more TASTY NOMS in the automatic feeder.

 

There's always a brief moment when the lid is off, and that's when Lily -- ever the opportunist when it comes to food -- dives in!

Lily gives a new meaning to FAST and FURIOUS! She gobbles as quickly as she can, filling her mouth up and dropping morsels onto the floor for later consumption. Then up she goes again to retrieve more! It's actually rather hilarious, which is why I let it go on for a few moments before I snap the lid back on! 

Feline Friday

 

Is it Friday? It's been a really busy week for Lily's Meowmy. Believe it or not, I'm already starting on Christmas projects for the store! 

As for Lily, she's had a calm week! Life is back to normal for her. She has her dining room sunny spots back, so she's quite happy!

One of these days, I'll finish cleaning the dining room and putting everything back in its proper place.

But as long as the sunbeams are back, Lily likes it just fine!

 

Oodles of Doodles

 Awhile back, I decided to take an online doodling class with Wendy Vecchi. Although I doodled a lot as a kid, I have been "doodle-free" for many years now. But when I saw Wendy's doodling style, I knew it was something I wanted to try!

 

In class, we learned how to doodle and color flowers, leaves, and a few other simple shapes. I found it super relaxing! 

 

One of these days, I'll share pictures of all the doodled flowers and leaves I have made. Trust me, I have quite a supply!

 

So now that I have a stash of doodled flowers and leaves, I decided to try a few on cards. They are completely different than any other card-making supplies I typically use! I enjoyed including these handmade flowers on the fronts of my cards.

  

It's time to get back to doodling more flowers for fall!
