Mom to two black cats, avid reader, introvert, artist, bi-lingual (English and German)
I have been reduced to sitting in the “extra” chair…because SOMEONE (ahem, Pixie…) stole the office chair. Rude!

It’s Saturday and it’s raining and it’s been a long week. So I’m learning to draw faces. Something I avoid because I’m just not that great at it.

I love when I can go back to basics…colored pencils were my go-to when I was in high school and college, so it’s nice to have a set again that gives me so much color!
PS: Can ya tell I’ve been reading a lot of fantasy lately?

Sunday is for not doing housework. So I made myself happy by finishing this piece inspired by Andrea Nelson’s rainy day post. Listening to my #audiobook and sipping on #tea was the perfect way to spend the morning.

I know there people who still believe that cats are aloof, independent, loners…but I’m here to tell you that is absolutely not the case. I’ve been away quite a bit because of work and am working from home for the first time in almost two weeks. This sweet boy has not left my side all day. 🥹

I love when they put their paw over their face like this 🥹🐾

Can’t have an appreciation post for Pixie and not have one for Hugo! My baby boy loves when I work from home…
