A Funny Thing By The Door...

I've heard of Cat In The Hat and Jack in the Box, but this is ridiculous! ;) Hasseman has two cats, Princess and Lolly, so named when he rescued them from an uncertain fate. Their owners could no longer keep them and he took them in. Princess and Lolly are sisters. I like to think of Princess as the big sister. She is more mature, stately, and well, fluffy. She can't be bothered with silly pursuits. Lolly, on the other hand, is like the kid sister, wild, unruly, and tries to escape every time the door is open. Princess is the lady of the house, and let me tell you, Hasseman is her man! She really has very little to do with anyone else. Lolly is a bit more playful and not quite as picky about her playmates. They are beautiful cats. Now, if I can just get Lolly to sit still long enough for her photographic debut!

A Pay It Forward Gift From Michelle

If you read my post a last week about Pay It Forward, you might remember that I learned about it from Michelle of Petite Michelle Louise



I have recieved my gifts from Michelle!!! The package is so sweetly wrapped in pattern paper, and the gifts are lovely! Thoughtfully handmade and perfect for me!






















I loved each little piece and couldn't wait to look inside the tempting package. There were also some little bird shapes cut from book print, but I forgot to take a picture. Very sweet!!!
Thank you Michelle!!!!

I have not made my Pay It Forward gifts yet. I hope to get a start this weekend. You may ask yourself what I'm doing inside on such a beautiful day... I am listing items that Lumpkin no longer treasures on ebay (and it takes forever!), but I do have Bob Seger playing on the stereo as I work in the sunroom with the sliding glass door open allowing the outside to come in. (The roommate's cats are loving me for it!) Hopefully, I will be able to fit a little creating in while the light is still so fabulous. Gotta run now. I have a quiche baking in the oven. Happy Weekend, my bloggie friends!!!!!
