My badly-drawn cat hopes you feel better soon. She'd like to meet more badly-drawn friends!

No politics, just Grayson. Hope this helps.

This is the new home of my blood sugar test kit. A little bulky, but more esthetically pleasing than my smaller boring black zipper pouch.

Which one is more disturbing: the Cinnamon Toast Crunch box or the Home Chef box?

It seems to be Maine Coon Tabby Tuesday in my stream, so here's Artemis The Cat.

This is probably the silliest post you'll see today. We're ecstatic because our most recent addition to the household ACTUALLY USED THE LITTER ROBOT! Over the past month, she's been slowly expanding her range in the house. This is a huge milestone for her! Go Cricket! (literally)

I'm a little afraid to look under the couch. Maybe I can coax it out from under there with a new-ish project.

Cat pictures & moral outrage at the state of healthcare. That's me, I guess.

My own cat pic for tax. Grayson, plotting world takeover in his sleep. Good luck, my little guy.

A little problematical as I'm going to be cremated. But if my urn could look like a stack of these books, I'd be content.
Intricately tooled spines of three well-used hardback books. The titles are "Fuckery" "Advanced Fuckery" and " Super Advanced Fuckery".

Left: Grayson, asleep. Right: Artemis, requesting that paparazzi stop pestering her.
Grayson, a Korat mix cat, sleeps on a fuzzy cat mat on a treadmill. Also, boxes. Artemis, a brown tabby Maine Coon mix, sits next to a couch, leaning on it with one raised paw. She is ignoring a hand which is making the gesture that traditionally goes with saying pst-pst-pst to a cat.

Someone posted the attached. 50% of the responses were "WTF is that round thing" and 25% were along the lines of "I have found my people!!!" The rest complained that it didn't rhyme b/c people were mispronouncing 'bodhran.'

And still more ...
Unfinished cross stitch, grape-purple silk thread on linen. "Yin Yang Dragons" by Artists Alley. Most of one dragon is finished. It's the 'negative space' dragon where the background is stitched and the dragon itself is unstitched. A baby's white cotton onsie with "Soy la princesa de mi papá" stitched in pink and purple topped with a crown stitched on gold metallic thread. A D and D Mimic made from plastic canvas and stitched with yarn. An otherwise ordinary brown chest with brass fittings is open to reveal rows of sharp white teeth and a lolling red tongue. A square sampler-style cross stitch on perforated paper in a plain gilt frame. It reads "Fuck all y'all" in red surrounded by a curlique blue border.

More WIPs & FFOs.
Unfinished cross stitch. ""Gina, Queen of the Seas" by Ink Circles. A split-tailed mermaid stitched in green variegated thread sits in the center of three large intertwined loops reminiscent of Celtic knotwork. A barely-started cross stitch called "Kingdom of Books." The first book on the left side, bound in shades of blue, is about 2/3 stitched with the center of the spine incomplete. A color chart of a small portion of "Kingdom of Books" showing the first 3 books standing upright: blue, shades of red, and purple. All have gilded bindings. The red book has a door at the bottom of the spine. A small rectangular sampler-style cross stitch piece in a plain brown frame. It's called "You're Doing It Wrong" by Subversive Cross Stitch. The piece is replete with errors including uncrossed stitches, a bunny facing the wrong way, another bunny with a color change to the wrong shade of pink, a bluebird stitched on the wrong side of the fabric, and letters getting smaller and rising off the baseline. To top it all off, the words read "You'r doing it wrong" with the lines turned 45 degrees to the right so they read sideways between the decorative top and bottom borders.
