Welcome!

I've finally decided that I am a writer - all the other things I do just pay the bills. Someone eloquent once said that if you do what you love, the money will follow. Well, let's just see about that.

RIP Aggie

RIP Aggie
Aggie was my fifteen-year-old cairn terrier - or maybe I should say I was her 55-year-old person! She was my faithful companion, spoiled rotten and I am still trying to figure out what to do without her.

This is Peter the gingersnap tabby! He's seven years old and has just been promoted to Peter the Very, Very Good. He is working his way up to Peter the Great...

Bee is Peter's buddy. He's eight years old and has made himself right at home. I guess cats really do come in pairs or sets of three!

And Jasper makes three!

And Jasper makes three!
Jasper is our new guy - the Cat From Another Place. He's four years old and we think he likes it here - so far, so good!

Remember this...

lovely hurricane candle that Tom & Al gave me for Christmas?  Well, I had filled the bottom with the cinnamon sticks and cherries but I was sort of scared to light the candle.  I would blame it on Peter, but he has really shown no interest in candles or flames.  Or I could say that I was afraid that the cinnamon sticks would catch fire.  But no, I'll admit the real reason was that I was afraid I'd fall asleep while the candle was burning and I'd torch the place.  So stealing an idea, er, taking a cue from my blogger friend Linda, I got one of these battery operated candles and now I don't have to worry about any of the above ridiculous reasons for not lighting the candle and enjoying my new centerpiece.  Isn't it just the prettiest thing?
