Link: It's raining cats and dogs
Hi Stitchers!
I wanted to show my babies, it's been quite some time since this pic was taken. It illustrates the sisters' love perfectly. They spend almost all their time together. Pudding, on the left, is now as tall and fit as her sister, Crumble, you could never tell she was the underfed, shy one. Well, except with strangers, that is...
We keep them indoors, only Luna is an outside cat, as she was used to it before we had her. I only feel good when the three are home. Fortunately, Luna is the stay-at-home kind, except when the weather is really warm and then she loves lying in the sun in the front garden. The tricky part is that she loves to walk the dog out with us, but will choose to walk on the street when she's as gray as the asphalt...
These three lady cats rule the house, and drive our Lord Euston mad. Here is proud Euston after a walk/crazy run.
Here's frustrated Euston after the infamous kitties have finished with him. He needs to squat his dad's lap then...
Oh and I also have this great pic of Euston playing hide and seek in the snowed in garden- and also munching some iced droppings of his, I think. His favourite winter game: find his droppings, launch them as high as possible, kick them, catch them, and finally eat them. Bon appetit...
By the way, this is still a stitching blog... I have stitched for winter lately:
Homespun Elegance, Snow Much Joy on 32 count Zweigart vintage, my choice of colours. Star charms are missing.
The Sampler Girl's freebie "my true love gave to me" with a few changes: a border added and little charm buttons too. 32 count Zweigart fein floba. The text is stitched with luscious silk I received for my birthday (can't remember the name, but thank you Sabine, I just love it), the rest is plain DMC.
Oh, and here's my contribution to the May Hallosal. 40 count coffee dyed linen, DMC 844, and a freebie by Primitive Betty. I left the date off.
Thank you for the kind messages you have left for my son. Many of you have advised a counselor, and I have tried the best I could to convince him, even with the help of our family physician. But he won't see one, doesn't want to.Doesn't want to try yoga to help him relax either. I have had him take some magnesium treatment, and that seems to help improve his mood.And I am super aware...
It may come as a surprise to you, my American and Australien friends, but around here in France, people who have a counselor are immediately considered as mentally ill and shown with disrespect. He is a victim of this prejudice.
I do have a counselor to try and find a way to cure my social phobia, but I never say "I have an appointement with my counselor". It would be a shame to admit my failures. So I say "I'm seeing my bald dwarf this afternoon". Quite an accurate description: he is very very small (less than five feet tall) and he is bald. I don't fear any transfer phenomenon with him, even as a father. Lol!
Time to sign off and prepare dinner here. I'll be back soon with more pics and stitching to share.
Hugs to you all, Stitchers!
