The Love is Back!!

As many of you know, the love has been missing around here... After Beau was put on Prozac for his peeing problem, things got a little dicey around here. Names were called, feelings were hurt, and the fur flied... But Sunday a miracle happened!! I was working on a large order all day and I while I wasn't looking Bella shared the favorite chair with Beau. They stayed like this for an hour or so.

Beau has slowly been coming back to his old self...every now and then he would give Bell a little kiss. Earlier in the afternoon I noticed this dove sitting in the birdbath in the front yard. A sign of peace.

Also on Sunday afternoon Bellas g0t a new toy from my Brother-in-law Kojac. It is a plastic ring with a ball, that lights up, in a track that rings a scratching mat, sprinkled with catnip! (notice the ball in the top leftside of the ring!) Oh Happy Day! She LOVES it!! Beau is not quite sure... He tends to just sit on it.


So, for now, life is good!

SPRING is almost here!!

It was such a beautiful day here in Middle Georgia!!! 65 degrees and sunny! A far cry from last weekend's snow. So I took advantage of the nice day and went outside to do so pruning! I cut back 2 crepe myrtles and pulled up 3 bushes of some kind that were planted around the mailbox. I don't really know what they were but I know I didn't like them. While I was there I noticed this!! The bulbs are growing! I have no idea what they are either because each year the grow but never bloom... But every year I am always so proud and hopeful they will make it! Last year they sprouted up only to be killed by our ONLY snow day of the whole year...March 1st!

So this year I am still hopeful but know that winter is not over yet! But if they make you will see it here first!!

Check out this blog!

I am featured in this blog today! My Ooh La La Retro Ruffle Apron is the favorite again! It has been a very good week for her. Check her out in this collection! http://fabricatedends.blogspot.com/ It's all about fabric and cool things found on Etsy. I love it!!

SO you will just have to click on the link to see it! Click on the pictures and add views to the items...that way maybe we will make to the front page of Etsy!!

It's Melting.....

You know what they say...Here Today, Gone Tomorrow! That is so true about snow in the Deep South! It is almost gone! It has been a little windy today and that has had the snow melting and falling out of the pine trees! You would have thought there were a bunch of teenage boys in the back yard with all the thumping I kept hearing! But there was no giggles or chuckles...just falling clumps of snow. Our backyard is full of pine trees. I think this area was a pine tree forest at one time. The trees are planted in straight little lines!

I measured the snow around 8:00 last night and this is what I got.

Now keep in mind it was still snowing when I took this picture. So we could have gotten more...I am calling our official total 3"! Sweet Mama wanted me to send some pics to LB in Iowa. He is the Weekend Anchor of his local news. So I sent them and they were put on the weatherman's blog on the station's website. Kinda cool and yet kinda pitiful... They get a lot more snow that we do...every year! Just a El Nino event for us! I basically sent him the same ones I posted yesterday plus this one.

This is as close to the snow as Sweet Mama got!
Here's a few from today!

Plus we got a little bit of ice!

And now we get ready for SPRING! The Cherry Tree is getting ready...are you?
