Sometimes when having a rough day it just takes a nudge from your cat or dog to remind you of what is truly important. To notice and enjoy the simple things in life and not stress so much over the rest. You're So Good to Remind Me No matter how my day has gone up or down or sideways you are here to calm my soul warm my lap and guide … [Read more...]
Watch Your Step When You Have a Cat
When you have a cat, you'd best watch your step. You never know when he's going to dive underfoot. Most likely it will be when your hands are full and you can't see down to your toes through whatever you're carrying. I'm not sure if they think it's hilarious or the cat really does want to kill you. If I'm carrying food, I know it's an attempt to … [Read more...]
A Doodle of Gratitude
Best of Instagram for Wordless Wednesday I drew this little doodle in my planner and it was the perfect spot for my boys. I think all planners should have a gratitude section! Not sure if that that is what it was meant for, but I love to look at that empty box at the end of each week and think about what I am truly grateful for. Rascal and … [Read more...]

Are You Taking This for Granted?
Still enjoying so many warm window options. You could easily take them for granted, unless you never had this much room to spread out, two cats in a row, on one long sunny window ledge. Sunny is the key word there. In our old home, sunny spots were very limited and not nearly so luxurious! I hope we never forget how grateful we feel at this … [Read more...]
It was Almost Spring Until…
For a moment it looked like spring. Flowers were blooming, grass was growing, birds chirping. Then I wake up to this! What is this cold wet stuff and why would anyone want to live near it? Since we moved the boys have had to get used to snow! For them, it means more time napping by the fire or upstairs where it's … [Read more...]
Ticket to Blogpaws 2017 Offer
Do you want to go to the Blogpaws Conference in Myrtle Beach, SC? Last year I had the amazing experience of going to the annual Blogpaws Conference. The rest of my year was so extremely overwhelming with the process of selling my home of ten years and trying to purchase a new house, hours away, that I did not spend much time writing. I neglected … [Read more...]
What 3 Things You Need to Hide From the World in Comfort?
Three perfect things when hiding away from the world for an evening. I don't know if it's just that I am paying more attention as I grow older or if the world is becoming a scarier place. There is so much unrest, so much fear, hatred, and struggle. I alternate between wanting to take to the streets to shout about the injustices and to hide away … [Read more...]
Reading With Cats or trying to
When you own a cat, or rather, when a cat owns you, reading time is not about you. It is a time for rubbing a furry cheek against book edges and of cuddles in a warm lap. It is for petting, scritching, rubbing of bellies (if your kitty is into that), kneading a leg or two, and time for you to give over all your attention to your feline(s). It is … [Read more...]
